In the interest of supporting people who got ahead of schedule, the series of posts for times posted on Friday March 29th have been grandfathered into the challenge. With that in mind Ston has established a commanding lead in the opening days.
-
Amazing performance Ston and congratulations on taking the gold. Please check your DM's regarding claiming your prize. Huge thanks to everyone who participated and lets keep the spice rolling.
-
Late on the update, my wish was granted! On the 29th, with just days to go the lead was stolen by none other than @Ston! With the deadline here (sorry for lacking updates here, IRL got VERY busy the last week) we can now proclaim Ston as king of the sneaky bois! Congratulations Ston I'll be in touch today regarding your winnings.

Your build appears incomplete is it possible you uploaded an mid development version?
-
@VertigoIguanaI appreciate the extra numbers, i was honestly surprised Kin didn't perform better. It's bad rap comes from the other versions but the Stalker version has the immense power of being able to spam its build up more than any other Stalker between the Stalker ATO and Concentrated Strike. What was your rotation out of curiosity?

Hey gang, I am pushing to gather data and builds for a new and improved pylon and clear speed sheet. To that effect I am posting regular bounties to encourage competition and push the limit. Thus without further to do. Bounty Posted! Prize: 2 billion influence Task: Post the best pylon/dummy time of any Sentinel for the month of April. Read the rules and regulations and post your results here: Clear Speed Leaderboards (posts made in this thread will be processed if they meet the requirements listed.) Start Date/Time: 00:00 UTC, April 1st 2024 See in your timezone here! End Date/Time: 00:00 UTC, May 1st 2024 See in your timezone here! (In the links look in the non bold text with your location in it, if anyone has a better translation method, let me know.) Runs on the test server are valid provided they do not make use of any changes currently being tested, or the changes used are promoted to live.

I've spent quite a bit of time optimizing Regeneration, main concerns are getting Dull Pain permaed (easily done) and stacking more recharge for Instant Healing and MoG up time. Shadow Meld too if you take it as it can easily hit a 50% up time. After that you are just after resistances and making sure you dont over cap things like max hp. Fore Fiery Melee your ideal rotation is Incinerate -> Greater Fire Sword -> Cremate Here's an example scrapper build using Regen and en example highly optimized fiery melee scrapper Final Glint Revision 11 WIP - Scrapper (Katana - Regeneration).mbd Effluence_Fire-Bio tweaked.mbd
-
I mean that Regen slotting could be a lot better, doctored wounds is not my first pick. But what are you actually looking for?
-
Vertigolguana took the lead again on the 13th, he cant keep getting away with it!
-
@VertigoIguana strikes again! Somebody stop this man. I'll get your time up tonight once I'm back at the PC or I can manage it on my phone. To answer your question. All tests for the pylon challenge should be on the unleveled pylons. This does give an advantage not only to MMs and pets, but also to builds forgoing accuracy slotting as the unleveled target is much easier to hit than a lvl 54 would be due to differing base hit chance as well as the impacts of purple patch. I chose to keep this target partly because I started the thread before page 7 and partly to keep it somewhat comparable to historical tests. However I am VERY interested in +4 dummy times and would be very happy to have people start submitting them before iv placed bounties for them. The same is true for the +4x8 version of the mission sim. As an aside whoever wins the stalker challenge, I'd like to get with and organize a 'victory lap' in which we give them 7 afk teammates to boost their crit and see just how dumb it gets.

When I say WP is overhyped I mean what Captain Fabulous is hinting at. I'm not using overhyped as a stand in for 'i think it's bad' I'm using the word very intentionally. Willpower and Radiation both have VERY evangelical players who talk up the sets as much stronger than they are. That doesn't mean the sets are bad, just that they get miscast in the discourse a lot. Rad is solid, Will is solid on Tanks, okay on Brutes, kinda low tier everywhere else. What Will does is be thoughtless. You toggle up and go and for +4 radios it'll do just fine. But so will a blapper so not a big mark of power. -
WP is over hyped but it's litteraly zero clicky with a good build because SoW isnt worth much. Of the 3 Energy Aura is the strongest hands down. It's capable of defense caps, has an end tool, and an actually good T9 that you can mitigate the crash on. Of all sets, well two ways to look at it. Scrapper is a DPS AT so by that metric Bio Armor > Firey Aura > Electric Armor > Energy Aura = Super Reflexes > Radiation Armor It's an armored set so by durability metrics, something like. Invulnerability > Stone Armor > Ice Armor = Energy Aura > Bio Armor = Dark Armor Overall the undisputable king is bio armor, as it is unrivaled in DPS except by a damage capped Firey Aura and even then not by much. Meanwhile having one of the better durability values of any armor set AND that durability is in the form of max hp, Regen, and absorb all of which are much less common in team support than defense and resistance buffs. And to top it all off it gives passive endurance, active endurance tools, and applies -res for your team to boot.
-
Updating this as we close out a bit more than the first week. Ston's lead posted on the first and slightly improved on the second remains uncontested. I know one of you sneaky bois can put down the spreadsheet man, let me see your times!
-
I find this point is usualy over focused on. The build in question lacks for defenses and endurance slotting sure, but Recovery Serum alone will solve the end issue easily. A team should cover the durability issue either through support or tanking. The most id caution is taking this build solo, but it has all the tools an Ill/MA dom should have aside from AoE attacks. Could a better build be made for general play? Absolutely, drop Assault, Tactics, and Disruptor blast for plenty of slots and power pick options to fix that. Its a good build to modify.
-
These runs are invalid for the sheet due to inspiration use, but good showing none the less. If you can get a build posted for this ill get it added
-
Been a little slow on updating sheet, will be focusing on that after tonight's 4 star run.
-
Appreciate it, ping me when you do, ill leave the time up for a coupe days to give you time to get the build to me.
-
I swear i saw it here before but its missing, do you have the build file?
-
It's also through pushing the limits that many lessons can be learned and back ported to more standard builds.
-
And to be clear, other people are welcome to place bounties, I'm willing to facilitate.
-
Aside from those being available to every player sure. The goal here is limit testing, if you want baseline then there's a decent number of sources already and you can just break out the calculator, or you can just wait will I have done all ATs and start looking for more specific things.
-
No you will not be permitted. I recognize that Stalker crit rate is heavily dependent on Teams but this can be loosely calculated for. More importantly it would necessitate all competitors be able to get 7 account to stand around to boost their performance to compete which is an impractical requirement.
-
Actually im just banning the QA Tester Buffs, so please double check your runs. Its just not practical to completely deal with. Please please pelase double check if you are not recording as i will be forced to assume good faith. I am sorry @Stonthat does invalidate your current run.
-
Yeah that playtest buff is a pain, im adding it to the notes and treating it like the MoT one. It wont be valid for competitions but will be valid for the sheet in general
