    I generated some data from the Top 1000 & Top 200 of the ladder (*beta) and one thing I noticed was about half the entire player base is playing Dru/Nec and the least played is Sin and Barb, with it becoming even less of the distribution of top 200 (iirc it was something like 5% for barb/sin and 23-26% for dru/nec ea). Supply & demand is going to run prices up a ton on these builds.

    Haha, no wonder people thought feral rage would suck on wolfhowl, they don't know that at high end, it has the same attack speed as fury. So this is a brilliant change, definitely makes me want to give it a shot. Finally feels like what it should be, a cross between beardudu and wolfdudu and a sword using variant.

    Love the data. Best tier list yet. Some people will see letters and colors and get mad. What can you do.
    I'm curious if aoe builds will just scale better as someone focuses on higher density maps. Especially with the floor raised up on density. Poison Dagger might be interesting on fort maps.
    Would be cool to see something like a t1 map, .5 or 1 hr build tier list. Maybe next season there will be time for something like this.

    • @darkhumility4915

    Assasin venom is best used on the shadow master, If you got a lvl 29 cobra and a lvl 49 Master and a lvl 49 venom master gets: a cobra synergie at 15 from cobra ( if you got 1 hard point the half of total sum counts as synergy) , Master gets 1/3 from master skill as synergy added together with any other skill synergy, this is at lvl 49 a lvl 17. This gives a total synergy at lvl 32. And then the venom is cast at lvl lvl 17 from master and a lvl 25 from venom. this is cast at lv l42 with a synergy at 32. Yes master can get synergy over 20 points. You should also spend a hard point into blade shield if you got this route. No hard point no synergy.

    Honestly farming T1 maps is just as efficient as farming T3s and most builds in the game can melt T1s. The tier list is amazing of course but you shouldn't put too too much importance into a build rank on there, play what you find fun is the way to go in pd2

      @zachb8012 8 месяцев назад

      Not sure what you mean with this act2 stuff but I ran nova from day one last season. Not recommended for hardcore but softcore is fine. It is a unique and fun play style, very tense. Get used to farming trash items for gold so you can resurrect your merc over and over. Once you get your resists and FCR sorted with a mang song in your hands the build absolutely launches into space and that felt good, like I continually gained power through the season. For softcore I would say sticking to your guns rather than doing whatever is S++ for leveling then switching when you have gear is the more rewarding way to play, psychologically. Just feels more like a journey. I say if you feel inclined, then do it.

    I've been observing most of your testing process and I love your content, but here's what I think is wrong:
    You're testing many builds on the Blood moon map, but how many people would be able to spam this map given that it's Mal each?
    You tested a few lightning builds in lightning immune maps - Phlegethon.
    You tested physical builds in Blood Moon and Throne of insanity maps when there's better choices for them - Sanatorium and Phlegethon.
    You compared kills per minute on builds that didn't do Blood moon map to builds that did given there's huge difference in the maps' base density.
    Generally, I think Blood moon is the worst choice for testing given its limited availability, high price and much higher base density.
    No hard feelings! I hope my feedback improves future testing and looking forward to more of your content

      He tested every build on two or more tier 3 maps. He wanted to see how the builds performed on their best maps and then averaged the results from their best two. He stated many times that he didn't want to solely use blood moon because of its limited availability due to popularity. He's been transparent about the methods and constraints and has simply based this tier list on the results he got.

    • @darkhumility4915
      @darkhumility4915  8 месяцев назад +4

      Almost every build tier was constructed using the average of their 2 best maps, so blood moon is a good indicator but definitely not the sole determinant and never was for any build tiered. Phelgethon has lightning immunes, but very sparse and many lightning builds absolutely shred there. That's what i found with testing. Throne of Insanity is usually more dense than Phlegethon, so it depends on the physical build but while i dont have the data, I did test multiple builds in more than 2 maps. The data was discarded though due to not being in the top 2. Blood Moon, if not a best map for certain builds, does usually disadvantage them somewhat but that's just because that map is so good. So long as Blood Moon has the same drop rate as other maps and is a map, Blood Moon must always at least have relevance for testing! Good points and question!

    • @zachb8012
      @zachb8012 8 месяцев назад +1

      In an experiment you have to control something to measure a variable, in this case he's controlling the map to measure the effectiveness of the build. Without controlling the map he'd subject the experiment to a lot more variability. Maybe the poison immune maps are way easier than the fire immune maps, etc. Plus he did test many of the builds in different maps, Bloodmoon was just the constant. The method is not perfect but it is about as well as you could hope given the resources available to test.

    I have a QUESTION...
    - that’s why BERSERK carries TWO ONE-HANDED axes in his hands, but ASSASSIN doesn’t...
    - THAT IS, he cannot TAKE IN BOTH HANDS, that is, one FLYING KNIFE IN THE LEFT HAND AND ONE FLYING KNIFE IN THE RAIN HAND. why is HE a NINJA... (after all, there are many videos on RUclips where PEOPLE who know how to quickly HIT a target with both hands,
    that is, in both the left and right hands there is a Blade that can hit the target with great speed.)
    - a game that is no longer young and I understand that such MECHANICS was ORIGINALLY... (like the one that allowed Others to Use TELEKINESIS on weapons 33/33 times or FIREBALL 40/40... now it was not noticed by me,
    although I saw it a couple of days ago just to WARM UP before the NEW toy SERAPH: In the Darkness on Steam, it seems to be also DIABLO 2 but in a new Wrapper, but in it you need something to buy or sell, you have to pay 50 bucks)
    - But I’m not talking about that. For example, I have a License and I wanted to run through a couple of ACTS and remember how it is...
    and then I was distracted for a short time - and I didn’t have time to pick up a LOT OF THINGS I NEEDED...
    (after all, Americans love to rummage through other people's things, BUYING various ABANDONED CONTAINERS and FIND SOMETHING VALUABLE THERE... - so that's what I'm talking about... I was distracted and I didn't have time to pick up a lot of my things that could be NETWORKED and A LOT COULD BE THERE MY RUNE STONES and...
    but THEY WERE MISSING... and there could have been something VALUABLE FOR ME, and many PEOPLE JUST FLY AWAY WITHOUT TAKING A LOT OF VALUABLE THINGS...
    - he’s probably level 99 and I’m level 25 and he doesn’t need them, but FOR ME THESE ARE VERY VALUABLE THINGS) ...)
