Read this before commenting! Trixion is not representative of real raid conditions. This video is to mark my progression in the game and to serve as a data point for other Loyal Companion and Death Strike players. Do not use this video to argue which engraving is stronger - both have their pros and cons. Timestamps: Loyal Companion: 0:00 Death Strike: 3:19 ------------------------------------ Loyal Companion FAQ: ------------------------------------ Q: Is Salvation or Hallucination better? A: Salvation in our version. Things might change with future updates. Q: Why do you have an extra crit ring? A: It lets me hit 60% crit with Adrenaline 1. I have a spec ring that I use when I have crit synergy. Q: Is Crit/Swift also viable? A: Yes, you can cap both movement/attack speed and run Raid Captain instead of Cursed Doll. It is a bit weaker and more reliant on good uptime. Q: How about full specialization? A: In all my testing it is worse and more expensive. Things might change with future updates. Q: CDR gem on Charged Shot or Silverhawk? A: Personal preference, I like it on Silverhawk since it's easier to land. Q: Why do you have 3 Silver Master tripods? A: I like redundancy. You can take the attack speed tripod on Hawk Shot or damage tripods on your slash skills. Q: Are the flat damage tripods on Sharp Shooter and Arrow Wave worth it? A: Higher ceiling, lower consistency. I run the crit tripods since it puts those skills at 100%. Q: Why do you add Max MP Increase 3 and Spirit Absorption 2? A: This is to simulate support mana buffs and the Swamp of Yearning set effect. ---------------------------- Death Strike FAQ: ---------------------------- Q: Is Hallucination the best set? A: Without any crit synergy, yes. If you have crit synergies, you can run Salvation for more damage. People in KR run Nightmare for the absolute highest ceiling. Q: Have you tried the Crit/Spec Bladestorm build? A: Yes, but it doesn't feel good to play in my opinion. It's a lot slower, more melee, but it does more damage per cycle. Q: How about Bladestorm in Crit/Swift? A: You can replace Moving Slash or Arrow Wave for a ~4.7% DPS increase in my testing. Q: Why do you use a Silverhawk CDR gem? A: It allows you to ZZX both times in your cycle. Charged Shot CDR is probably better if you can utilize it. Q: Why do you delay your Death Strike sometimes? A: I'm trying to fit it at the very end of the last window. Q: Why do you add Max MP Increase 3 and Spirit Absorption 2? A: This is to simulate support mana buffs and the Swamp of Yearning set effect. Thanks for watching =)

[@Smplbot]

[@arcfaire]

i'm not quitting sorc haha

[@ChristianKrillz]

You reckon it's more easy to get the maximum damage out of LC in raids right? like don't have to care about boss moving and missing a death strike etc. So in a beginners hand LC would just outright do more damage right?

[@arcfaire]

yeah LC is much more chill and easier to play but DS isn't too bad either if you're careful with your x and snipe =)
