[LostArk]1630 EF & DB Striker 2 min DPS(Main, Tast Server)

Thank you for watching my video!
iloa.gg/charac...
If you want to learn more about my character, go to this link. It's a Korean website, so I recommend translating it to English.
This video was made under the same conditions.
I used all lvl 10 gems, lvl 5 tripod, Spec 1800 and Crit 660.
Ether Enhancement lvl 1 was replaced with Stabilized Status lvl 1 due to stack.

Thank you for watching😊

[@user-ju7os1dl8n]

been waitting for a striker ptr, tthnx for uploading, btw does ssb(counter skill) crit stacks (10Crit) with lightnigh whisper (18Crit)? or theyre independent meaning that whatever skill has more crit rate (lightning whisper) it overrides and refresh ssb/s crit rate?

[@loteng]

new tripod has the same synergy between Sky Shattering Blow, Violent Tiger, and Lightning Whisper, with Sky Shattering Blow granting ob hit and foe crit resistance -10% for 6 seconds, Violent Tiger for 8 seconds, and Lightning Whisper for 16 seconds. If I use Lightning Whisper with about 12 seconds left and then use Sky Shattering Blow for 6 seconds of synergy, it doesn't renew because I still have 12 seconds left. If you use Sky Shattering Blow when you have about 4 seconds left, it will renew to 6 seconds. Additionally, Lightning Whisper gives me 10% crit for 12 seconds, so I had to find a way to use Blast Formation within 12 seconds, and it fits perfectly into the renewal skill cycle, so I'm using it.

[@lilarcorconquer1702]

Thanks for the video @Loteng. One question, since it looks like SSB's crit debuff doesn't renew itself mostly (since most of the time LW crit debuff is still ongoing), wouldn't it make more sense to take the mobility tripod on SSB? I'd like to hear your opinion on this. Thanks so much!

[@loteng]

If you don't want to use the Synergy tripod, I think it's okay to use something else. In my case, I use it thinking of it as a synergy that can be used when the enemy runs away.

[@lilarcorconquer1702]

@@loteng appreciate you for responding, thank you. Great vid btw!

[@SinXen]

Thanks for the vid has a lot of helpful info. So if this change remains the same for live servers, the best build for DB striker will be the lvl 3 adrenaline renewal build +1 ether predator? And for EF, have you tried any testing with 4 spender with FHF or any other substitute skill.

[@loteng]

Cursed Doll 3 is the one that can produce higher dps with a probability, and Adrenaline 3 is the one that can produce stable dps. Cursed Doll might be better if you have a crit synergy friend with you. And as for 4 spender, I've only tried it on Trixion about twice, so I'm not very good at it, so people might find it uncomfortable.

[@loteng]

I've done the 599 build that's being studied. I used Flash Heat Fang on a 4 spender, minus Spiral Impact. I'm getting about 2400 to 24.9 million DPS and a crit rate of 83%.

[@miikatenkula6356]

I swear some people's screen shakes look more intense. Is there an extra setting for it? Is it about it being a video? Idk it just looks better than my game's screen shakes xD. Btw, did you check the new spec requirement for SSB + SDK + VT to generate 4 orbs without any normal attacks since SDK meter gain was buffed?

[@loteng]

I don't know because I didn't set anything up. I think it's because it's a video that the screen is less shaky. spec to make 4 orbs with SSB + SDK + VT can be done from 1742 minimum.

[@miikatenkula6356]

@@loteng Oh wow, this is huge. I have a 3,5% ambush bracelet which results in 1732 spec but its higher dmg than my 115 spec one. Now I can swap to a higher spec 5x3+1 build and keep using this bracelet freely. Thank you man.

[@jacksonribeiro96]

About EF and Tiger emerges, the new tripod is viable or is it just better to use tenacity instead?

[@loteng]

new tripod is only for DB, so EF cannot be used. tenacity is the best way.

[@xerodight2057]

I saw that there were meter gaining buffs, does that lower the threshold to start playing 3 spender DB effectively? I know the current one is around 1720 spec.

[@loteng]

minimum spec cut is 1742. I confirmed that if you do this, you will get 4 bubbles when Sky Shattering Blow, Violent Tiger, and Storm Dragon Awakening are all hit on the boss.

[@xerodight2057]

@@loteng oh nice, that's almost 100 less spec, thank you! That means to get 4 bubbles with autos would be less than 1680 or so.

[@edaih8439]

What engraving build do you think is currently the best for the ESO striker? with cursed doll 3 addre 1 or addre 3 ether enhancement 1 ??

[@loteng]

cursed doll 3 addre 1 is not stable in dps. even if the crit rate is high, there is only +50K difference, and if the crit rate is low, there is about -300K difference than addre 3 ether enhancement 1. I will recommend addre 3 ether enhancement 1.

[@Fabio-sz5nb]

I dont understand why using blast formation as first eso skill, leads to higher damage (for deatblow i mean). Anyone can explain?

[@loteng]

reason for this is that Lightning Whisper's tripods have the In this balance patch, Lightning Whisper is getting a 10% reduction in critical hit resistance for 16 seconds for herself and her party members, and a 10% increase in critical hit chance for 12 seconds as a buff for herself only. Blast Formation is supposed to be used within 12 seconds, but if you use it last, it always goes over 12 seconds and you don't get the synergy. So if you use Blast Formation at the beginning, you'll be able to use all your skills in 12 seconds.

[@Fabio-sz5nb]

​@@lotengthx a lot, i was missing that part. But in actual raid i think is still better the original version? I mean, Considering that you dont have 100% uptime on boss, the last eso skill that you use most likely will not benefit of the 20% crit rate so its better that it is the one that deal less damage, which is blast formation right? What do you think?

[@ExiledVessel]

Still going to play esoteric flurry 3 spender.

[@Not_Eph]

dude deleted my comment i think, wanted to say fuck you slosh

[@pauliusnanukas7183]

Hi, what would be the best 5x3, 5x3+1 option for db/eso? Do we still need adre 3?

[@loteng]

Grudge lvl 3 Keen Blunt Weapon lvl 3 Ambush Master lvl 3 Adrenaline lvl 3 eso or db lvl 3 Ether Enhancement lvl 1 I think this is how I go most of the time

[@SmileRiven]

@@loteng What is the best elixir to go for with ether enhancement lvl 1? DB3 Grudge 3 KBW 3 Adrenaline 3 Ambush 3 EP +1

[@habeebsultan7625]

Is it better to play lvl 3 Adrenaline instead of CD?

[@loteng]

Depending on whether you want to use the Critical Chance Increase elixir in the upcoming ivory patch or the Damage Increase on every critical hit.

[@ainidhalp5613]

For EF, why use Lv. 1 Stabilize Status & not Adrenaline? Why use Lv. 3 Adrenaline & not Cursed Doll?

[@ckd2539]

He is using lv 1 stabliized status to simulate fully stacked ether predator, but I'm not sure why adr3 instead of 1

[@loteng]

reason is that you can find the answer in the elixir you can get from ivory. The elixir I am using increases damage when it hits a critical hit. I had no choice but to use adr3

[@lietome2153]

adre efficiency lvl 3 is very high when u hve kbw and also crit damage bracelet.

[@windeusx]

​@@loteng My build is lv 3 adre , lv 2 curse doll with 9 - 7 stone. So when voldis comes am I getting stronger than some other classes? Like blade

[@jlee9360]

So striker needs a buff? Especially eso.

[@AmigosdeViagens]

By the results on this tests we could assume the highest ceiling is back in hqnds of DB comparing a 29m vs 26m parse (renewed db cicly vs 5eso, both using adrena 3, and full spec) right?

[@loteng]

Yeah, the cheapest thing is now the DB. But we don't know yet. We won't be able to confirm it until we move to the main server on Wednesday.

[@abdullahsait2146]

Is it fine to go CD instead of KBW on 5x3 build?

[@loteng]

It's okay to use CD as long as the crit rate is about 80%.

[@azoshikorea]

so which one is better for now ? because i see the dmg between eso and DB is almost same

[@werelions8180]

ESO still better I guess because its trixion, playing deathblow in raid is much harder than eso

[@lilbillie7936]

db is not harder than eso 5s, because eso 5s u need more uptime in back atk than db need to do dmg​

[@loteng]

You can do whatever you want If you want to see dps and big damage numbers, DB is a good choice. If you want to use counters and weak points more, EF is a good choice.

[@user-ko4ro6kg6d]

Depend on your playstyle, DB is still one of best burst short dps window

[@pauliusnanukas7183]

So which one would be easier to execute? 5/4 spender eso db 3 spender? In raid? I prefer faster phase style or atleast not max cluncky, so back to original queastion, if both 1800spec 600 crit adre3 builds, which one is better in terms of comfy play after changes? Thank you in advance

[@funandgames5278]

wiat i thought blast is in place now

[@kidakazeda9245]

yeah that tripod is still available, it has much faster animation but the regular form does slightly more damage.

[@funandgames5278]

did they also change the spiral impact to longer range?

[@loteng]

After experimenting, I found out that Great Explosion is stronger for EF and the renewed tripod is stronger for DB. If you use the renewed EF, 800 million damage will be done 10 times, and if you use Great Explosion, you will get 820 million damage. If you use the renewed DB, 10 hits will do 1.24 billion damage, and if you use Great Explosion, you'll get 990 million damage.

[@loteng]

range was the same

[@VietAnhNguyen-ix6op]

So look like no different with EF before and after patch right?

[@loteng]

Spiral Impact damage has been lowered, but the crit rate has increased and is now similar

[@VietAnhNguyen-ix6op]

@@loteng i hear someone said deathblow now is better than EF right? with 100% crit syn all the time

[@Dregoan]

I was waiting for a revamp chang in DB, oh well time to sell my DB stuff, striker dosnt get much love like wardancer does

[@loteng]

I'm not sure about Esoteric Skill Enhancement, but I think First Intention is probably similar to DB. This Striker has Critical Strike synergies that are now permanent and can be maintained at 100%. However, the lack of a weak point or the need to use a counter every cooldown is very unfortunate.

[@biuske1354]

@@loteng Wait the DB striker dont use counter? really?

[@windeusx]

@@biuske1354 Its core gauge filler skill "sky shattering" and its his only ct skill. We dont save it for ct unless its a 0x mech like valtan , brel hm g4, akkan g2

[@darka86]

What about swiftness eso, no one tested it?

[@loteng]

5810 build is also being done, but it seems like there are not many people doing it, and 599 build seems to be being researched on this test server. I think I'm doing this by crit 550, Spec 950, Swift 950, and using 4 Esoteric Skills.

[@darka86]

Thank you for always answering. Okay, would love to see it bro. ♥️♥️

[@Zraekor]

try 400/900/1000 build on eso ?

[@loteng]

4 It's my first time doing a spender build, so I don't think I'm very good at it, but I gave it a try. DPS came out to 23 million and crit rate came out to 80.22%.

[@loteng]

I used Flash Heat Fang on a 4 spender, minus Spiral Impact.

[@Zraekor]

@@loteng so its seem like a lot of previous builds are viable with DB coming out on top. But the calculations seem a bit lower, with overall dps increase

I took a video, but I'm embarrassed to show it because my skills aren't very good.

[@legendhd5940]

ur not using umar set ?

[@loteng]

I'm still not good enough so I'm using los set

[@havoc1426]

So is striker slighty buffed or nerfed ??

[@loteng]

EF is the same as usual, as it has decreased in overall damage but increased in crit rate. DB can be seen as a buff because it allows for high crit synergy and constant synergy maintenance.

[@havoc1426]

@@loteng and dmg wise db the same ?

[@windeusx]

​@@havoc1426 Before, u almost only hit %10 of blast from back and it doesnt full crit bc ur synergy is only covering 2 tigers barely... SO with new changes blast will hit a little bit less damage in trix BUT in raids u can use its full potential now (with your %20 crit syn it always crits and so much smoother fast animation) TL DR dmg will increase indirectly bc of the synergy uptime change. Also Tiger emerges does a little bit more dmg now I guess.

[@havoc1426]

@@windeusx so we have 20 % crit 100% uptime now? 😮

[@windeusx]

@@havoc1426 %100 uptime for %10 synergy for party but Im not sure the other %10 will be %100 uptime. But it doesnt matter bc this guy found new rotation that covers all esoteric skills in %20 crit buff. Check revamp rotation adre 3

[@rikit9140]

Why no Lazaneth/Umar set? To unreliable ?

[@loteng]

I feel like I'm not good enough yet. because I'm hitting boss patterns without thinking them through properly. my back attack hit rate is slightly lower than others. So I'm using the los set.
