[@DookyStupyd]

OC out of curiosity why would you use the "Strategist Card" over the "Transformation Card" Is it due to you using the Mental powerset or would you utilize that same set up for Fire or Ice DPS?

[@ZWGames]

Its great artifact . From my own testing my st dps insanely increased! Im talking from 1.9 -2.3 to 3.1/.3.5 Sorcery might no buff or swap

[@Supsyfy]

Solar amplifier also did not split for a long time. Then the nerfed it. This is going to go down the same route. As they do not acknowledge the damage splitting being legitimate or a bug.

[@ObsidianChill]

The solar bug was just at 200 rank, the other ranks it split properly so that did make sense to fix it. You are right we don’t know for sure but all ranks aren’t splitting dmg here

[@Supsyfy]

@@ObsidianChill Also, this letting the damage not split for months only to fix it later is nothing new. It happened for light encase back in the day too. I think it is one of the fundamental concepts of the game. Having all DPS use this art is going to break the content. Unless it is specifically designed with high HP adds. In which case people who don’t have this artifact are going to be severely impacted. This is just their way of flavour of the year artifact. Are there powers that currently do not split damage?

[@ObsidianChill]

@@Supsyfythe two that don’t follow split rules for the longest time is electrics Tesla ball and arc lightning

[@appo4842]

​@@ObsidianChillWould you put it past them to release it this way and then nerf it in 6 months?!?! $$$$$

[@woIfson]

Yeah they have to fix that bug, we can clearly see that might is back on top but if they want everybody to be might again at least make the artifacts work with all powers, that interrupt is ridiculous.

[@STARLEYMAYHEM]

[@woIfson]

@@STARLEYMAYHEM even while doing jackhammer or celes combos?

[@ObsidianChill]

@@woIfson no, you can still get CC’d or knocked out of a combo. That had gotten a bit better in the past but still an issue for combo powers. Empowered channeling doesn’t stop everything, like the grounding effect

[@Siramez]

this art is super synergistic with atomic ebon build for both AOE and ST.

[@sipewg]

Honestly it should've just been a supercharge available if you got the art equipped , cause the way some dps rip through adds you will never get to use it in time , trying to stack it lol

[@TheBmills415]

Very true

[@trumpelstiltzkin9068]

I cant fucking stand how everyone has beeen forced to become min max players just to keep up with everryone else all min max does is causes everyone to all use the same setups and robs the game of variety and becomes extremly tedious and boring

[@ObsidianChill]

you aren't wrong

[@kbutler0615]

Don't worry about the scoreboard and you'll be fine, lol. Play how you want to. "Keeping up with everyone else" isn't necessary to play the game

[@zaayso]

You don’t need to min max to play with everyone. But if you care for damage or care for a fast run then yes you would want to min max

[@SHMEGAF]

Preach. I use a supercharge battery loadout for my water main and do just fine without min maxing. Even often end up top of the board. ^^ ​@@kbutler0615

[@meyatetana2973]

[@topplemap0000]

Nice review. This is completely unrelated but at 12:50 u can also swap arts by opening inventory, press spacebar, then close inventory. It’s a bit faster than moving your mouse around the screen.

[@ObsidianChill]

@@topplemap0000 true, for your last used slot. If you are just swapping 1 art, pc can definitely be the fastest

[@TheLQGaming]

Yes! Although there is a minor bug with this. If you acquire a new skill point during gameplay, when you open the inventory it will instead go to your Loadout menu, and will continue to do this even after spending your newly acquired Skill Point. This only gets resolved after logging out and then back into that Character. This makes swapping a little more awkward as you have to quickly navigate your PDA with each swap when this occurs.

[@OtsuDC]

@@ObsidianChillPC always faster just bind your arrow keys to WASD in your keyboard software and swap like that

[@10digitmind33]

Nice video as always. My light dps should be back on top. Curious to see what it would look like. May be forced to finally use the wolfpack 😮

Just would like to mention that "Ebb" has a short 'e' sound, like egg.

[@ObsidianChill]

yea that was my bad, I think I do that every time with Water

[@mandod1986]

@ObsidianChill It happens to the best of us.

[@SHMEGAF]

I guess it'd be fine in MY water loadout. Since i do drown (refresh the cd) drown again clipped Starfire affected buff power into bubble. Then have my tsunami and the supercharge. So i guess i could just remove bubble and be fine as the tsunami strikes come after a load of attacks. Only problem would then be the second rotation till cds are ready..hmmm... Unless i just waited to use it...or since it would be tsunami strikes... Suppose dropping it briefly wouldn't even be that bad. Unsure. Course...not like i can build up the new art anytime soon anyway. Since the devs see unfit to give us more bonus art xp weeks. Lol

Im debating. On if this is even worth waiting for or if i should rank up another art like ebon..

[@melsanchez8917]

Would you say for aoe arts it woulld be ebon, strat, omega? Also it seems this works best quick burst powers to get powers off quickly and hit omega, as a fire dps itll be viable for sure, but we dont have the best quick burst powers imo

[@ObsidianChill]

ebon, strat, omega works, I think for alot of encounters that are faster like reg/elite raids I would do ebon/trans/omega and drop strat. You would only get 1-2 ticks out of strat before adds are dead

[@xrsixstgaming2944]

Did they ever fix the Superpower combo issue?

[@aria88banks84]

Can you post updated loadouts for all powers?

[@oTioAlan]

One thing that would make a big difference would be the option to unlock feats with money, in other words, buy feats. Many feats are simply impossible to do nowadays. For example, no one plays PVP anymore. How can you complete feats that require PVP then? And I believe that this option would generate a good extra income for Daybreak.

[@OtsuDC]

Load up bot accounts and run it yourself

[@SirCazza12]

I hope they fix that issue where knocks you out combo at the 4 stack… I’m celest and it’s gonna cause me a headache can already tell

🤔 How is it w Nature? Not sure bt ud have to sacrife one of ur dots I guess or just keep it in ur gorilla load out.

nature would be interesting, having impaling thorns and omega, even though both would be aoe would be a slow rotation. Plants spam lets you build the stacks fairly quickly then can just keep omega and drop thorns.

I suggest keep it in gorilla, but tbh i’d suggest more using your nature finisher over that, the fact that you can hit multi targets instantly with thorns when you have to use 10 abilities with the artefact is a better deal
