I was going to say no, just based on estimations in my head, but then I realized I was forgetting to account for the fact that you would theoretically occasionally be triple-stacking Blinding Feint for SS, and at that point I gave up because I can't be bothered to actually do math tonight. EDIT: Thinking about it a little more, I think still no in pure single target. But when you are getting multiple targets with your Sweeping Strike, maybe.

BF 1.452 Acast and 12 sec rec SS 1.452 Acast and 11 sec rec AS 1.188 Acast and 6 sec rec To get BF down to a 2.64 sec recharge requires 355% total recharge. 256% after enhancement. 186% after hasten 136% after 5 purples 98.5% after 5 LotGs 78.5% after quickness in SR That is a lotta extra recharge needed. Mids is showing on my db/nrg scrap with 10 foes in range of entropic aura +35% and BF recharging in 2.87 seconds, still short by .23 seconds. With only 1 enemy in range, EA only buffs 3.5% (again, as per mids) and BF's recharge is at 3.1 sec, a dead space of almost half a second. And yet, that's all I run on my db/nrg. Is it possible that BF, SS, AS, .5 sec to .17 sec pause is still better DPS than a clean BF, AS, SS, AS, repeat chain? So... I was still curious. And I was having trouble sleeping tongiht due to my psoriatic arthritis acting up. So... to occupy myself, I put together a DB/SR build in Mids that (using Ageless, which I would probably not be inclined to do in a real build probably, because I'd want to have Barrier for Incarnate content) is capable of actually running BF -> SS -> AS gapless. It has 285%(!!) global recharge. Mids says this is still slightly worse DPS (183.1443) than BF - > AS -> SS -> AS (187.5271). Procs might change this, didn't test that. And I don't know if Mids calculates the stacking damage buff correctly (I didn't bother checking the math, I'm not that bored). Of course, even one additional target in SS's AoE would swing this in favor of BF -> SS -> AS. Here's the build if you want to look at it yourself. Note that Power Slice, Typhoon's Edge, and Energy Torrent are all present largely as set mules (Power Slice to get me over the ranged softcap, Typhoon's Edge and Energy Torrent for more 20% more global recharge and 30% more global accuracy), though Typhoon's Edge also provides a bit more AoE capability.

Linea Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Mids is much much better these days on dps numbers, but I would still never trust it completely. 1 1 AE 801 (link) is a variety of missions for fun and challenge, and is designed for a team of 5+ Incarnates. Just search '801' in AE. 801 Difficulty Varies: 801.0 Easy, ..., 801.2 Standard*, ..., 801.5 Moderate**, ..., 801.6 Hard***, ..., 801.7 Four Star****, ... 801.F Death. I may be AFK IRL, But CoH is my Forever Home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
