When running content with lots of enemies you ideally want a ring of condemned from the demon/devil party in Avernus. It will cause you to effectively deal damage (you won't but the enemies think you do) in an area around you and thus it's much easier to get thier attention focused on you. For the new trial at least one tank should use it fro the 3rd and 4th phase For the Crown Trial, use the Ancient Scalebreaker or the Slips of rain boots, instead of the Wisps, bewcause the bleed damage is a percent of your hp

Also looks like I have to change out companions again. Still not sure if a Lion is better to help the team or an augment for myself (staying alive). One question.....Curious why the Metallic Dragonbourne dropped to average in races? I can switch to Aasimir , I had just thought MDB was on par.

Hi Aragon, hi all. I discovered something I must share, you had mentioned this before Aragon but not why. So nothing in game currently can counter deflection apart from deflection severity which is accuracy.... So if any build really spec more into deflection mainly then use something to reduce npc accuracy one would be tankier better than defense or critical avoidance can offer, so thx for that I spent so much into my build, dieing so easily is very demoralising, keep up the great work appreciated 😉

Hey Aragorn, returning to the game after a few months break and catching up on the recent changes. I'm conflicted between Recharge Speed vs. Stamina Gain especially without Elven Battle now and am curious if you can explain how your current total Recharge Speed applies to your cooldowns? Is the overall decrease to cooldown time actually significant in general? I have always felt like there was, at most, a minuscule difference barely noticeable, but never much cared to question it until now. I may sacrifice all RS bonuses for SG depending, alleviating the need to equip artifacts just for it, but I'd like to know your overall opinion.

I feel like the meta for pally tanks is different now most are now using stamina gain gear and stacking way more hp because the stamina shield is synced with your stamina (shield lasts longer for the more hp you have) but most of everything else is on point.
@Aragon-2 жыл бұрын
your shield is only 40% of your max Hp, and that goes to 60% when in your special tab power. In the current meta, it is better to stack defense stats, so that you take less damage overal, including on your shield. Have a look at the math, and you can see increasing your defensive stats, will overal result you in taking a lot less damage and so you don't need as much Hp, which also means, the healers can heal you less to get you back to full.

Hello Aragon. Thank you for your videos. Just checking. If the fighter and paladin tank both has 1 million HP. It would take 600k dmg to erase the fighter main shield. It would take 1.2 million HP to erase the main shield of the paladin? Can it be extended to 2.4k million damage if you use the encounter that regen stamina + more with sacred weapon?
@Aragon-2 жыл бұрын
Normally as a tank, your shield is 40% of your max HP, but when you activate your special class power, Tab, you increase that to 60% while Tab is activated. None of the classes can go over the 60%, so at a mill hp you have at max 600k shield. Sacred Weapon and Binding Oath will just allow you to "heal" the shield back to full much faster. Shield or "stamina" regeneration.

Its like playing with one hand tied behind your back . Even after all these years and changes one thing remains the good old NW lag .

Ratings, the numbers that can change color, white green or red, can give a max of 50% of their stat to the % When it shows green, you are at this max 50% If it shows red, you are just adding too much ratings that just become wasted.

It's give 30% accuracy debuff, mean you "earn" passive 30% deflect severity 3th- aoe build, you get 0 bonus from your set, and you have not the "aggro ring" try instead a build with a lot of speed and r1 aura: Aggro set+sacred weapon+talent for extra treat+feat for extra treat+r1+3th talent for shield(for divinity regeneration), everything touch your r1 aoe it's yours. Speed 'll help you to grab all the mobs cause r1 drain your divinity very fast. The last feat is absolute useless, 10 magnitude is nothing 4th- in st, the skill for more resistance is useless too, just in cok is useful, others dungeons you don't need all this resistance, I use the last one for make more damage=more aggro Or when I'm on vistani set I use the other one aggro skill too with smite for the beginning of the fight 5th- raptor doesn't work as you said With your explain ppl understand that even if you use awareness raptor, other ppl 'll get the full power bonus of raptor, no. Ppl 'll get 4xpower 1xawareness bonus from raptor This is the reason nobody use it Dps wants the full bonus for raptor, doesn't need awareness bonus Have a nice day!
