INSANE DAMAGE! HOW TO MOD WEAPONS AND DESCENDANTS | The First Descendant Guide

@@MrBalrogos Where did you learn this from? The only thing I ever saw was 10k = 10% def up to 80% which I’ll assume is wrong now

[@Ghost454212]

@@QwannyMon Check out Ryechew games. He does a full breakdown video about defense and elemental resistance that aligns with what MrBalrogos is saying

[@xDragunx]

Skill power modifier is a flat % increase and effects the multiplier on the skill, you can check what multiplier each skill has by hovering over it (ex. Your ajax's expulsion at timestamp has 14:37 has 1290.4%, so adding a skill power modifer of 20% would increase it to 1310.4%) vs skill power is a % increase to your base skillpower, it shows you have 19697.36 from your reactor, so adding a 20% increase would change it to 23636.832. icreasing your damage much greater. For characters like Freyna who has a base skill multiplier of i believe 10% for one of her skills, adding 20% skill power modifier would increase it to 30% thus increasing the damage much further than just skill power

[@MrBalrogos]

Aye!

[@Okomi874]

Theres also 1 exception to the crit rate rule, smithereens, build all damage and crit damage with some fire rate cause it has 100% crit chance

I played warframe when I was younger but I could never really grasp it, decided to dive back into the genre with this game and this guide was very useful 👍🏻 thanks a bunch

[@samlane9732]

There is one situation where i have found using 2 general round weapons is beneficial. If you socket max ammo mods in your second general round weapon and swap to that weapon when you pick up ammo then swap to your main general round weapon you will have those rounds. It lets you put more damage mods in your main weapon. Having close to 900 rounds in reserve is super nice, especially if you are using a tamer or something that is ammo hungry.

[@daisysteinweg8820]

Amazing explanation. You taught me things about Ajax I was unaware of as well as modding weapons!! Thank you

I hope this game blows up more and your channel gets more popular, you deserve so much credit with guides and make all the games seem less like a task to grind

I didnt know those activators where so hard to get after the 2 you get for free and used mines on Bunny and Thundercage so i decided to fully comit to the thundercage and i am 2 hard bosses away from beating them all, also im doing them solo is much better in my opinion, ppl are still not building hp and defense and get one shoted left and right...

[@williamhelphinstine5019]

Actually having your second weapon with general rounds and modded with expand general magazine, general rounds compulsive and normal impact rounds refining makes it so you can switch to that weapon pick up rounds and and when you switch back to main weapon you have 800 ammo instead of 400. so never say never :) great video

[@Dubafu]

The other big thing i think people dont take into account is how rate of fire is worst for damage over longer times. Doubling fire rate is worse than doubling your attack since you are now using double the ammo, and spending double the time reloading

[@juggernaut6498]

Hmm really because I thought dps stands for damage per second 😂 so explain to me how having a slower fire rate is better because no matter how fast you empty magazine either way you have to reload 😂 what matters is your aim and how many shots you actually land 😉 please read your comment and really think before you reply 😊

[@PWNHUB]

0:48 why would you not do that? You can use 1 weapon w/ DPS modules and 1 w/ capacity modules so you can grab more ammo overall for your main weapon.

[@yeet95.]

u will run out of ammo quickly in a boss fight

[@kylevanderwolf4446]

Just to clarify. Skill power is the base power of a skill. It won’t show on menu. It’s the same stat as the little reactor you get The modifier is the part where it’s (skill power) + ___%.

[@johnkouger619]

Mate if you wanna check the updated stats you need to save the loadout first (press S) because somehow they thought that would be a good idea

[@cbirdman]

You have to save the descendent build before it shows in the skill stats on the left.

[@voodking5598]

Thanks for the help! Can’t wait to see how this ups my game

[@oa109]

Question I have is are weapon mods just random drops. I’ve tried to view acquisition or track but can’t. So I assume they are random drop like weapons for the most part. And this was a great video I forwarded to a few friends to help them understand mods and weapons. Way easier then trying to explain to them over chat while they try to navigate and I explain to them. 🤙🏽

[@Xenedris]

Random , toss some plus module drop chance gear and farm while you're doing your other farming

[@MrBalrogos]

Mental Focus for Tamer must have!

[@thrudgelmir5494]

Does putting a crystallization thing in the sub mod slot make the sub mob give double points??

[@kennethsjvold9212]

You should put in that every time You use a mod u have to lvl the weapon again up to 40, so if you have 10 mods u got to lvl the weapon up to 40, 10 times

[@Thevikingninja117]

@@kennethsjvold9212 this is incorrect. If you forma the weapon (match the slots) then yes. Same with frame. (Trust me it’s easier to just use Warframe terminology). If that’s what you meant then ok.

Thank you for the information, sometimes its a bit confusing, and it makes me wonder if this is why i'm struggling with the bosses. I got the Descendant modules down, but weapons are a different story for me lol. Pyromancer just destroys me and the groups I've been in, or people just leave lol.

Just a heads up when you took off the module for skill, you never clicked save which would update in the skill window and give the effected skills a green dot under them.

[@Pupsker]

yeah true, i dislike that feature XD

[@MrBhily]

I dont know how defense in this game works, but from what I tested, max hp + element resist is way better I can survive even more FYI Im testing it with bunny 12k HP Full element resist depends on content and NO defense and shield module. Only focus with Max HP & Element Resist module. Maybe you can try it for experiment and content also

[@Okomi874]

Does anybody know if matching your sub attack mod symbol by using a catalyst makes it increase capacity more like with auras in warframe or if you can even change that slot?

[@ghillysniper45]

I don't disagree with modding crit on a SG but it works like Warframe so it would be (crit x pellet count) so it would be roughly about ~10% crit not just 2%

[@kerch6071]

When you are modding hit save and you will see your stat changes.

[@emoliousmarkz2087]

For general play its best not to have the same rounds but if u adding polarity to your weapon an have to relevel them bk up its way quickers to run 3 of the same gun

[@Okomi874]

Am i the only one who vehemently hates the ultimate modules cause you actually have to be HOLDING THE WEAPON?!?!?!??!

[@gamer95361]

this is really helpful, especially on the weapon side. I will definitely apply these tips to my build and hopefully have the dps to do better against the colossi.

[@Zepulchure]

Question; (and personal assumption) Building for crits, should be better than building for weakpoints ? For trash mobs, hitting headshots make sense, but not all mobs have heads, or the head counting as weakpoints. For colossi, do weakpoints dissapear once youve destroyed them? In those cases, building crits would be the better overall option, as you are not limited as to where/when you shoot, and crits can work ontop of your base weakpoint bonuses. This is purely a theoretical question, as i am hillariously bad with numbers and testing, and also just based on ly own assumptions ^^ Extra note; As you mentioned with the shotgun, some are just not worth speccing for crits, which i agree with, however the priority should always be to increaee you straight FIREARM ATK. Before anything else, as well as other bonuses you get that will help setup your gun based on your special mod, if uou are using such, not all weapons are the same, my original question is moreso a baseline thought process, and not true for "ALL" weapons of course ^^

[@FlashesSoccer011]

Building for critical in this game is completely useless. It's not a flat % increase, and almost every weapon in the game has horrible critical stats at base line. If your weapon has 10% critical chance, and you add 50% critical chance through mods or equipmemt, that's actually just 50% of the origional value of 10%. So you'd only be at 15%, not 60%. Not even remotely worth the investment.

[@a420triggerman.]

Weak points stay even when armor is removed or destroyed. The DMG numbers color tell you what you are hitting, yellow = weak points orange = crit white = base hit. Hope this helps you identify what your shots are doing.

@@alexanderhirst1171he says it in the video, there's tiny words on the bottoms of some of the mod cards that designate categories(battle, arche, etc.) You can't have 2 mods from the same category or 2 of the same name mod, which is why on most of my builds I don't use the blue skill power mod I use one of the focus purple mods cause you get cooldown with it, but you can only have either or not both

[@TTV_Refluxuation]

Can you test if using a catalyst on your sub module slot doubles the capacity? I would test myself, but I’m afraid I’ve already invested too much into my bunny

[@Zepulchure]

Someone on Reddit tested this. It gives you +5 capacity. The same logic as any other module applies, by reducing "cost" by half. For sub attack specifically it just adds half instead. So its better to use for modules that are 10+ in costs as they will give you more than 5 capacity returned

I would say wait.. At least until you know for certain which character you want to "main". Or until you can start collecting the materials and resources needed to craft more. If you already know 100% you are only going to play bunny, before having tried other,,, i would say you are wrong and should still try others 😂 but in the end you might end up still wanting to only play bunny.
