Also, you get the coralax pet too which did 24302 over 5 summons on the 1 run. So that was 8% of my total damage. So the APP contributed 10% overall. Would potentially be more if I swap the two -res procs in spout (rely purely on them in freezing rain) and put two damage procs in. Would be interested to see if Earth mastery can contribute a similar total damage out put with say this slotting

According to the parse: Nado had 19050 base damage (for some reason isn't showing the number of activations) Spout down at 6834 On my build nado has 17.73s cd and spout 51.86. so depending on my clicking etc its probably about 2 nado's for every 1 spout upwards to 2.88 if i'm casting perfectly on CD. The napkin maths seems to imply they are actually doing the same damage (6834*2.79=19066). Just cant get many of them out. Maybe I am being harsh on it. Would have to see how much lifting a proc bombed fissure could do to compare.

Yeah, I was so surprised. Just never clicks that its doing damage since I'm not pressing buttons. It was 1 full clear of Unai Kemens first mission the council empire 20x portals one in PI. Was trying to drop WS on cooldown, i think its higher base recharge vs tornado really does hurt it.

Love me some numbers. I did a parse on my Fire/Storm/Levi troller as I was interested in how much my damage was split between my primary and secondary. Was very interested to find out how much heavy lifting the ATO psi damage proc and energy font proc was doing in my Tornado vs Waterspout with no procs. Also Hot feet+arma proc = 25% my total damage Fire cage spam every other attack = 11% of my total damage. Water spout (no procs) = only 2% So now I can proc it out and retest to see how much extra damage I get. Then decide if its worth while to keep that or respec and test say Stone with a proc'd fissure spam. Could not do that without the tool so thumbs up from me b(^_^)b Also Might test proc'd out Hot Feet vs 5x Arma

I did some rejigging in the intervening time and settled on current: Level 6: Orbiting Death (6) Superior Essence Transfer: Accuracy/Damage - IO:50 (36) Superior Essence Transfer: Damage/Endurance/RechargeTime - IO:50 (36) Superior Essence Transfer: RechargeTime/Global Heal - IO:50 (37) Obliteration: Chance for Smashing Damage - IO:50 (37) Eradication: Chance for Energy Damage - IO:30 (37) Scirocco's Dervish: Chance of Damage(Lethal) - IO:50 Level 26: Quasar (26) Armageddon: Damage - IO:50 (43) Armageddon: Damage/Recharge - IO:50 (43) Armageddon: Damage/Recharge/Accuracy - IO:50 (45) Armageddon: Recharge/Accuracy - IO:50 (45) Armageddon: Damage/Endurance - IO:50 Level 20: Black Dwarf Mire (20) HO - Nucleolus Exposure (25) Obliteration: Chance for Smashing Damage - IO:50 (25) Eradication: Chance for Energy Damage - IO:30 (27) Fury of the Gladiator: Chance for Res Debuff - IO:50 (27) Ice Mistral's Torment: Chance for Cold Damage - IO:50 (29) Armageddon: Chance for Fire Damage - IO:50 decided to move the proc to the DMire as, whilst its only a 58% proc rate, im firing it in a group every 6s and its hitting lots of enemies YMMV.

2-3 a second then I clearly need to practice way more XD. Could also be a ping issue, I'm on Torch from the UK, and according to /netgraph 1 in game, im sitting at 200ping. Interested to know your slotting on Quasar. Is that just flat damage, have you got procs in it? I currently plan to Put 5 Arma in (no proc as thats currently in Orbiting Death) I found space for a KB>KD so i can start leveraging it more now. thanks all for the replies, its certainly educational ❤️

OH I see, its just a naming thing i wasnt aware of then. Well I am currently using changeling anyway so that's all fine 🙂 I still not quite sure how GWell isn't being looked at, surely having that in the single target rotation is beneficial? Can house a purple hold damage proc and 4 others and be up roughly every ~7s it is the longest cast time, but only slightly more than dwarf drain (2.07s vs 1.93s) if there is some maths that I've missed out on here, feel free to educate me. The numbers get confusing 😛

What do you mean by the last part about the meta etc? I have been away from the game for some time and in the intervening time period all this hardmode stuff has happened. My only experience of this was a 1* ITF about 2-3 months after that was first released and a standard Aeon. I have decided to stick with Orbiting Death for the time being. I did some manual skimming of half a maps worth of Battle Maiden mission and it seemed that the procs were firing well enough so I just decided to stick rather than twist.

Hi all, I am currently making use of a changeling WS build however am trying to ascertain the usefulness of Orbiting Death. The current attacks that I am using means I am only swapping down into human to fire Eclipse, H-Mire, Gravitic Emanation, and Stygian Circle. I am trying to fit Gravity Well back into my build and the only place I can pull slots from (without affecting my ST or AOE powers) is Orbiting Death. What would be the best way to test to see if it's doing any kind of heavy lifting for me? I currently have it slotted with Arma/Oblit/Scirocco/Erad procs/PvP-Res/50+5 dam New slotting would only be base slot. So either the 50+5dam or the -Res maybe. thanks in advance for any insight you may have on this or if you already know the answer. MF'ing Warshade New.mbd

I was inspired by them back in the day. I played on Union and once sunset was announced I decided to try get my SG as high as possible. mostly solo, I moved my SG from just below Torchwood to eventually 3rd place. This was about 12-13B burned back on Live on my fire farmer in AE and was taken early September, just under a month before Sunset.

Looks suspiciously like the Crazy 88s

Its always been this easy XD

Having spent some time with my storm2 the other night and actually firing off powers to check what they were doing...holy balls chain lightning is poopoo. I have mine slotted with a set of Posi blast and a extra damage proc (i was trigger happy on my respec and put 6 slots in) and it just does no damage. I was on a citadel, and hitting a bobby basic council spawn with the chain doing like 40 damage or something ridiculously low. I then joined a lvl 50 doing a classic Dreck map. Here I got to the point that I mentioned to the team that I felt completely useless outside of my ability to drop freezing rain and -res proc'd 'nado to help the team kill faster. Otherwise my shit just didn't come online till the spawn was wiped apart from the Tank Smashers. We got to the final Dreck fight and he was looking mighty juicy. 3 spawns of stuff to just set up and wipe out. Then an AV sized sack of HP to finally sink my teeth into! Unfortunately I faceplanted as 1 tank isn't enough to manage 3 spawns of aggro and ended up sitting out at least 50% of the fight until someone barrier rezzed me. I think this toon might just be relegated to a for fun only and have a lowered budget. Unless the devs throw some love our way and give us the storm calling that we all know this set should achieve. Also I defo more into the lightning and zapping people side more than the wind and clouds side. Or at least as the animations are at the moment. Especially because Cat5 and the wind summons it produces feels like more than enough wind based stuff.

Yeah, seconding the human only levelling being worse. That has got to be the gimpiest 1-50 journey out there. Cannot think of anything worse tbh XD

Id rather they kept damage the same and just unlocked the power. I want to see lightning crashing all other the place as I spam powers in the stormcell.

Corruptor (Storm Blast - Storm Summoning).mbd This is the new mids version file. Idk if it works or not. thoughts on this as a potential build?

you have all answered my question. I just wanted to ascertain if slotting damage into storm cell increased the lightning strikes damage. Which is yes apparently. So i will go about slotting that asap 🙂 thanks all

Was Full Auto always 10 targets? It feels so weird only hitting what feels like the front part of a spawn

I haven't tested this at all due to lack of time to play, but, does slotting stormcell for accuracy and damage make any difference to the procs that are fired off from other blasts? I have been heavily leaning on storm summoning for damage, so only have it on the base slot with a +rech proc. Anyone actually tested chat logs for procs before and after slotting damage into storm cell?

My thoughts: Heal: Twilight grasp is just slotted 100% incorrectly. Please revisit previous advice Blasts: take them to do damage, don't take them to slot them with tohit debuff. The summons are largely unnoticeable outside of tanking an AV. You can have 3 blasts, but really 1 or 2 is sufficient. Pet upgrades: Aegis and Impervious skin uniques are worthless. The others are good, but i think they work on you not the pets. (need to test tho I think im correct here) Shadowfall: you have dedicated 5 slots just to gain 3.75% recharge? Seems a huge waste to me. If you are going to 6 slot it, max the defense/resist/endredux of the power. 3 lots and 3 resist set such as unbreaks/GladArmours/TitaniumCoats Soul Extraction: base slot. You wont be gaining much from this power unless you dedicate more to it. This is a huge part of your damage Life drain: 0 accuracy or damage or heal. Which is why you want to take this power. Fearsome stare: your bread and butter, 4 slots minimum. Either use it as a tohit debuffer (4 slots from cloud senses, use the pieces with accuracy in to make sure it hits) or use it as a fear and 5 slot it with Glimpse of the abyss for 6.25% recharge and a damage proc Dark servant: Fine as is, BUT i would like 2 more slots for Touch of the nictus Acc/healing and acc/healing/something just to make sure he hits and his healing is much better. Dark Embrace: I can see again you have pushed for the recharge, however resist sets are not the best place to gain recharge bonuses. Mostly you gain that from defense (LOTG) attacks and your MM sets, and tohit debuffs Im sure your build would function fine as is, but there will be times that it will fail purely because of your slotting choices. In summary: Your healing is poo currently Your damage is OK, but could be significantly better Your ability to look after your pets is way below where i would feel comfortable playing personally.

@StrikerFox @Nyghtmaire I don't think I tested this, or don't remember testing this. My gut feeling here is that these won't apply to the pets and will apply to the MM. Am I correct here?

Can you explain what exactly is happening here? its hard to tell and can't sit and watch 20 mins of Lich attacking 😄

Whirlwind from the speed pool? That can only take 1 damage proc. Does it proc often then? Seems like a super whack combo but I have never tried it myself 🤔🤔🤔🤔

My response to this is lead the team yourself and only recruit people in the 20-30 range. That way you are the more powerful hero on the team and all your back loaded damage has a chance to hit XD on a real though, storm/storm has so much initial set up with all that leading to mostly back loaded damage you need to be 15-30s ahead of the team. Running ahead as bosses are mopped up to start anew on the next spawn. By the time you have dropped Storm Cell, Cat 5, FR, Nado, LS ( a whopping 10s of total cast times) the team should catch up. Or maybe rock it in small teams? Its a fun set, if you just go in with the mindset of "oooh pretty visuals" and ignore that fact that you are probably less useful on a team of similar levelled and slotted heroes.

I have "upgraded" my Mids so won't be able to check your build beyond eyeballing. Here is my old file tho for my current build. It is generally unkillable in solo content. I have solo'd AVs +4 no issues I have no way to check this build is up to date, so here is a screenshot of my enhances from ingame, hopefully they match up to this file. Things to note about slotting choices: Twilight Grasp: NEEDS ToE +End proc. It has a chance to go off on everyone you hit, so the more things you heal (pets + fluffy + extraction = 13 targets) the more +end you get. You have 4 personal attacks with this build, all with lots of damage procs in them. Can give you some respectable DPS options to add on to Bosses/EBs/AVs Fluffy: He is a -tohit debuffer first and a healer second. (never slot him for hold) All pet uniques are in the build T1: Always good practice to slot KD proc here. T2: BU proc and damage procs. Turns them into DPS powerhouses Pet upgrades: Dark Empowerment gives your pets +MaxHP, any health unique you slot here will be given to your upgraded pets (not you) hence the Panacea +HP/+END proc. You really dont need a resist or defense shield on a MM, especially a dark miasma one, as bodyguard mode (Defensive Follow) shares the damage amongst all your pets which you (and fluffy) just heal back up. Control/CC is handled with lots of layered options here: tohits from fearsome stare and darkest night (and fluffy) // Stuns and massive -regen from Howling twilight // spawn KD from bonfire. hope this helps, and hope the mids build is the same as this one screenied!
