This Ally mimics the partnership of Batman and Zatanna, since this quarter of the year is Batman themed: Batman Day, Batman Time Capsule, Dazed Affects, the BMWL similarity, etc. Thats interesting.
My sorc dps is kind of a hybrid. she basically uses a spam attack to fill up Lerneas amulet and then pops the finisher, using GWS and MAP when available. So i could for sure make Zs first passive work on her and should her arts outgrow the usefulness of it, Then the second passive is a great one too. Either way. I'm excited for tomorrow to hopefully get her right away so long as we aren't getting another Static situation where we had to wait a lot longer. But yeah. personally i'm looking forward to this episode. regardless of critiques. I love the spookier stuff and i don't get butt hurt over reused content in a COMIC BOOK game unlike some people do. Like all the ones who go "Oh, another Gotham? laaaame" I genuinely have to wonder what they really want, cause we had Washington, Thanogar etc. The devs can't just have EVERY episode be a new location. We'd run out fast. But...i do wish we could get an episode set in a restored Smallville. That would be cool one day. But I digress. Went on a tangent. lol great video as always.
I thank you for the informative and reliable tips 👍🏼👍🏼 Been soo curious about her abilities. Do you see Zatanna working well as a supercharge dps build for Mental and what artifacts & allies would go with that? Tell me your opinion!
I would get it if it was only might, i prefer to stay with shazam knowing that i will get more might when i use the ally then to let it random from zatanna, maybe i change bwl to her, maybe not, bwl still better because his effect stays for more time.
Is there a reason why for Zatanna’s second passive “out of a hat” it doesn’t include earth’s unstoppable which is a power interaction move? I have it at max level and it doesn’t activate.
In a lot of content you literally take dmg every 12sec or less. I want to test this but I'm eager to check the difference in DPS. Also I think bats who laughs + Zatanna as a alley set up seems viable
@Obsidianchill, I ranked Zatanna to level 10 and her passives don’t seem to work on the support side at all. The Out of a Hat passive never proc’d 1ce on my Earth Battle Tank while using unstoppable. Does she not work on the support side?
@@ObsidianChill I tested repeatedly, check for yourself. Unless it’s a glitch it appears Zatanna only responds to DPS role. As an Atomic Tank I was using Unleash Anti-Matter and it never proc’d once after 12 damage hits via super power. I switched to Zatanna’s Arcane Battery passive with a Robot sidekick on my Tank and after 6 damage hits it never proc’d the sidekick once. I put Zatanna on my healer and battle healer and both passives never proc’d. I assumed she only works on the DPS side
I tried it on on my sorcery healer. It works. I did run 3 moves to try to proc it. And it did proc. Obviously the less you hit your PI move the less likely you are to set it up.
@@ajadams3297 well Shazam is 90 sec cooldown for 6% might . In 90 sec you have 3 times your buff will happen with zatana. For dps, 2/4 are good. Percentage wise it’s 50% so you have a 50% of getting something good. Each time which is 3 times. So same percentage with Batman who laughs. So potentially with bwl and zatana you can do better than using Shazam. I also find parsers are better with crit buff increases . Shazam only has might
It does not, just retested. Cuff em, which sets up daze inside of stealth does proc the passive but Stealth itself, while setting up the daze pi does not proc
They should've just made it include powers that actual pet powers use. It's stupid this way, & if you try to align the cooldowns you're losing MORE damage b/c you're not using any ability to make the pets hit hard.
I was trying the buff passive with solar amp and I was not getting the procs like if I use heat vision without solar amp I get the buffs but when I put solar amp on...there are no procs of the passive even though it's appling a pi through an ability
Yeah ima try the bwl and zatana combo just for free dmg. I find myself not using scs as much because not as many eog healers now, and then for Shazam I feel like sometimes we wait to use ally sometimes . I’ma try the free rng.
@@n0n3xy no1 uses aqua man anymore as a passive ally for dps. At least when it comes to like all the top dps people. That setup is cool but it’s purely focused around your ally. You also have to be getting a supercharge fast. In 90 sec you prob only cast 1 sc which is a small decrease in time from re casting your ally. And realistically your not guna cast your ally right away prob a few seconds after cooldown ends
@@PlusUltraBrandobeofre you run anything you need to spend time to build sc, and then make sure you swapping scrap, that’s da best you can do, if you’re rage have black Adam. I forgot whiskey builds Super too. And since it’s a shortage of eog heals especially good ones. You can’t just spam sc when you get it you gotta know when and when not to pop it.
Retested. Harvest does proc Out of the Hat. Could have been something the devs realized that Nature would only use Harvest to refresh and would be awkward with having to use another poison ability
Zatanna can be good for any build technically with robot sidekick or not. Do you already have BWL and Static/Shazam leveled? If you do it’s not that worth it to level a new legendary ally
They call themselves buffing celestial with Zatanna garbage ally. Ain’t even powerset exclusive. So it seems they won’t be making anymore powerset exclusive because they don’t get enough money by making it exclusive to 1-2 powersets. Because they had more than 1 opportunity to make 2 in this episode, smh.
@@HiHi-yk1mv The effects are bottom tier though in it's overall output. As obsidian said it's extremely situational. You can only use your pet's power move only after buff. Limiting the overall effect. So basically you could be doing the same dmg with or without her pet buffs... This passive is impressive sounding but could be a major waste of a passive

will be using the second passive with ivy’s passive as a combo for my nature character inspired by animal man/swamp thing.

Still the best informative person , AYE THAT SECOND PASSIVE THO WITH BWL
Her and Aquaman for pet builds fire
Pet dps is really op when you actually combine it with might or prec. But if it’s only pets, you won’t get maximum damage.

Hey Chill. If you are in touch with the Devs I have a couple ideas I think they would really like. Just would like for them to listen that’s all.
He is not, you should put your ideas in the forum.
@@Wolf.Vision oh ok.
Is there a reason why for Zatanna’s second passive “out of a hat” it doesn’t include earth’s unstoppable which is a power interaction move? I have it at max level and it doesn’t activate.
So as a munitions might build, with pet trinkets-Zatanna isn't going to be a game changer for me? I'm slowly learning about this stuff, be gentle 😅
Not at all ally is garbage ngl
Ok then🎉 yeah I think Aquaman would be better for the pet passive and the hat pull seem like a staple in dpsing I guess we will see💫thanks again
Tricky aspect with Aquaman is you have to take damage, which at least in raids will be hard. In alerts without a tank or lower content would be fine
In a lot of content you literally take dmg every 12sec or less. I want to test this but I'm eager to check the difference in DPS. Also I think bats who laughs + Zatanna as a alley set up seems viable
@@HeartscarrsYes, for powersets like celestial who have powerful power interactions appliers.
Hi… So does this mean that if I manage to combine the source shard with mercy and the passive, the damage accumulates from the buff of all three?
It does yes
Makin it work earth prec and sorc 🤣I’ll be testing it out
@Obsidianchill, I ranked Zatanna to level 10 and her passives don’t seem to work on the support side at all. The Out of a Hat passive never proc’d 1ce on my Earth Battle Tank while using unstoppable. Does she not work on the support side?
As long as you are using a PI power like Unstoppable or Earthern Grip etc it should proc every 30 seconds

@@Shadow497 hmmm okay, I’ll try it again
Tnx Chill i will give a try to this ally.
Does “out of the hat” work with pheromones?
Could you give us a excel link for ally
Finally UK we been waitin😂
Bye! That servers dead. 💀
i just maxed out shazam i'm pissed. now i want to use zatana & bwl
Ha
If you were to get bwl might increase and Zatanas might increase the same time they will stack right ?
They do yes
Zatana might increase more consistent than Shazam?

@@PlusUltraBrando but u need zatana in lvl 10 .. u can use shazam in low lvl
@@ObsidianChill which support ally would you choose between Static's Electric Overcharge or Death Metal Batman's Cloak of Erasure for DPS?
Does the out of a hat passive work with stealth for gadgets? It doesn’t do any damage but it still dazes enemies
It does not, just retested. Cuff em, which sets up daze inside of stealth does proc the passive but Stealth itself, while setting up the daze pi does not proc
Oh ok, thanks for replying@@ObsidianChill
They should've just made it include powers that actual pet powers use. It's stupid this way, & if you try to align the cooldowns you're losing MORE damage b/c you're not using any ability to make the pets hit hard.
They might have intended it to replace the pet power moves. Now we don't have to power pets just go throw a regular dps rotation and get the buff.
I was trying the buff passive with solar amp and I was not getting the procs like if I use heat vision without solar amp I get the buffs but when I put solar amp on...there are no procs of the passive even though it's appling a pi through an ability
Its a bug, I have forwarded it along. I never tested it with Solar Amp as I don't use it as much now with Ebon :(
Arcane battery doesn't work with solar amp? Or the other passive? Is this still a thing? Was thinking of leveling Zatana
@@noahfloah8568 it works now they fixed it

That's why u use shazam + aquaman cause he reduces combat ally cd when you use a supercharge

Did they change this ally. I been using it and it looks like godwave and mercy’s works with it now
Nope
Would a combo power count for 3 for arcane battery or would it count it as 1 out of 6
Combo'd abilities like Jackhammer/Atomic/Light etc only count as 1 ability. The passive only counts damaging abilities used from your power tray
@@ObsidianChill I had a feeling it was going to be that way. Thanks 👍
Any chance you’ve tested to see if harvest procs the buffs?
I can double check but Harvest is not a PI ability, it just spreads and refreshes existing poisons.
@@ObsidianChill i was hoping it would work like the poison ivy ally but i wasn’t sure since harvest isn’t exactly a pi starter
Retested. Harvest does proc Out of the Hat. Could have been something the devs realized that Nature would only use Harvest to refresh and would be awkward with having to use another poison ability
@@ObsidianChill appreciate you testing that
Does arcane battery work with combo powers? Upheaval etc
No just like God wave doesn't work with it.
What time does the new episode come out
It says up to 8 hour downtime tomorrow so would at least except it around 1-3pm EST
@@ObsidianChill thank you and love your videos keep up the good work!!
@@Gokuirlll thanks for watching :)
Do Zatanna and BWL both work together, or do I have to pick one or the other?
they can both work together, BWL is more consistent if you only wanted 1 of them but both compliment eachother too
@@ObsidianChill Awesome, thanks :)
Let’s goooo
😊😊😊
What style is that? And where do you get it??
It’s the new vendor elite style apart of JLD Cursed
Thank you!
Good for munitions?
Zatanna can be good for any build technically with robot sidekick or not. Do you already have BWL and Static/Shazam leveled? If you do it’s not that worth it to level a new legendary ally
@@ObsidianChill i got all of them leveled up
Man pet dps don't get no love kinda sucks It seem they want to keep pet dpsing on a leash because of the artifacts
Imagine swapping allies. BWL first, then swap Zatanna with static.
Imagine having faster Ally cooldowns.
hello fren
Hi fren What's up?
The fact that you believed the devs used logic while creating Zatanna pet build is astounding
💀💀💀
They definitely was using statistics of allies purchased each time they make one. LOL. They dgaf about the effects.
They call themselves buffing celestial with Zatanna garbage ally. Ain’t even powerset exclusive. So it seems they won’t be making anymore powerset exclusive because they don’t get enough money by making it exclusive to 1-2 powersets.

@@HiHi-yk1mv
How was/would Zatanna buff celestial or potentially supposed to? This i gotta hear lol
@@HiHi-yk1mv

Nope not for me, gonna stick to the allies i already have for my characters.
Yeah she’s terrible
