I forgot to mention the tripods in this video for Lightning Kick. 212, 222, and 232 are all viable but I personally use 212 as that has the lowest ending lag when using the skill. The other two tripod setups will have higher ending lag but the skill will come out faster.

Striker needs wardancer treatment.

[@inmaninmin]

I have 1776 spec and this build works just fine if you swap the wealth runes on VTD and SSB, you just need one auto attack after your 3 small gainers but that usually lines up with waiting for BFs cooldown anyways.

[@jimbobborg22]

Thanks for doing this. I have a DB Striker and I'm not doing as much damage as I'd like.

[@Fluxxgamingtv]

striker needs a buff, dmg seems meh atm

[@BlazinBro786]

@@Fluxxgamingtv buffs and QoLs, either change LTS into WDs Azure dragon or make the charge speed faster. have TE full push immune or make it quicker.

[@abdullamutawa8795]

Classes with Multiple casts on a short cd ability just keep up adrenaline way too easily , personally for me i feel like lighting kick would just make my striker feel even clunkier .

[@fgmxd4957]

My poor man miso out here trying to make striker feel less shitty to play, but it's still clunky af no matter what build you play. The class needs help :/

[@123darko57]

There is 1 more small downside I noticed. You can't easily fit in purify with this build, I'll probably put it on tiger emerges though, when required.

[@superssupers33]

Do you have to use sweeping kick or can you use the other skill with LK?

[@MisoxShiru]

You can still use moonflash kick but you have an extra gem open since you don't use a CD for LK. So you can just use that extra gem slot for a dmg gem on Moonflash kick.

[@superssupers33]

@@MisoxShiru ok, thank you.

[@Oliver-tb9ol]

Sorry, SDA still just is a better movement skill and utility. Missing a bubble on BF every once in a while isn’t the end of the world. They just need to put tenacity on LT and it would be so much better to play.

[@FLYAWAYGR]

works with lower spec. swap wealths on vicious and sky shatter

[@MisoxShiru]

Technically yes but I think its only a few points of spec lower and if you swap the runes, you can't do Sweeping Kick + SSB for full bubbles anymore. You need the legendary wealth on SSB to have that flexibility.

[@photograhy]

There's also version with sleeping ascent/hidden dragon

[@MisoxShiru]

yep! but in my opinion its the worst out of the 3 choices. its also covered in the ppt in the description.

[@lecrisp2849]

can this build work with level 7 gems set? or do you need 9/10 gems?

[@MisoxShiru]

Sweeping kick feels better with higher lvl cooldown gems but lvl 7's still work. You can also still run moonflash kick if you wanted to and just use a damage and cd gem on moonflash kick (since you no longer run the cd gem that was on storm dragon kick).

[@Fluxxgamingtv]

what engravings/ gems do you use

[@y.j.1091]

i main striker, and i've seen no striker with this build, is it really smoother and dps relevant?

[@MisoxShiru]

some of the top DB Strikers in KR use it and also the DB Striker who has the #1 Hard Mode Thaemine Gate 3 parse used the build for that run. logs.fau.dev/log/1560809

[@y.j.1091]

@@MisoxShiru i've always played db, and change to 5spender eso like a bit after january patch, did you try both class? In your opinion, is it more eficient to go back to deathblow? to be honest i'm a bit afraid that the rotation can be a bit complicated during a raid (and as there is no update on the striker community guide, i'm a bit lost)

[@geraltvonjungkook8734]

@@y.j.1091 both specs are 100% viable, but it all comes down to your preference. 5spender is a bit outdated due to the nerf but still can be played (people mostly play SK now instead of SI), and deathblow is just as good as it can be after the BF reworks and minor buffs here and there. It's just that the SK variant is the 'new ceiling' since it provides around 5% more damage than MFK would in a more or less trixion scenario and honestly, since i play it myself, it isnt that hard to pull off in a real raid aswell, you just need to get used to the cooldowns and your new rotations. Though of course, MFK is still 100% playable and if you don't want to be bothered micro managing your cooldowns you can play that as well, it too performs just fine. And yeah, striker's community guide hasnt been updated in a long time, so if you wanna see or read up-to-date stuff you'll have to look for The Dojo striker discord, it's made by one of the previous editors of the community guide. There are all necessary information, also regarding SK builds, both SDK and LK like MisoxShiru did in his video. I recommend joining, you can ask people there too for advice if needed. :)

[@dave1095]

So what I’ve learned is that striker still bad, got it😂😂

[@raymondcubias3381]

How should my tripod and gems suppose to look? Because my rotation is so off.

[@raymondcubias3381]

Or where do I find the build

[@MisoxShiru]

depends if you use Moonflash Kick or Sweeping Kick as your generator. If you use MFK, I would recommend replacing the cooldown gem that used to be on Storm Dragon Kick with a damage gem on MFK. But if you use Sweeping Kick, the gems are exactly the same because you didn't use any gems on SDK anyways. As for tripods for Lightning Kick, I personally use 212 because the ending lag is lower but 223 and 232 are also viable and are a little snappier on the startup of the skill.

[@jlee9360]

no adrenaline stack means lost damage.

[@MisoxShiru]

its not that you can't upkeep, its just harder. If you watch the froge run, i only dropped adrenaline when the frog ate me for the mech, which even if u had sdk, u would drop it there. and i think i dropped it one more time right before the end but its because I forgot to press LK to keep it up.

[@skwarrior14]

LK is just too annoying to use
