[CnD] Power Holosmith | DPS Benchmark Collection and more! | 25.02.2020 Balance Patch

- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
- This patch, Power Holosmith recieved some big buffs, which finally made it relevant for the hardcore raiding scene and there are many builds and tactics to be explored. This video not only shows the (in my humble opinion) four most important builds/rotations for Holosmith, it also describes how important it is to understand the functionality of its burst and on what heat level one should start a fight. Feel free to experiment with other utility (and heal skills) as well and remember that if you need CC on sword, please use a shield instead of a pistol! Enjoy! ♥

The music and the RP make this so much more than a Benchmark video. 10/10.
Haha thx, yet my Engi buddies are all ~1-2% higher than me on their resp. benchmark x) I do value this as a "collection" and for the other infos tho. :3
Thanks a lot, been looking for Engineering stuff (new player) and all I find is stuff from Metabattle that is 4+ years old, or some guy on a laptop mic rambling without any real understanding of what they're doing. You actually show numbers and graphs omg, I need more intel with my intel and you delivered lol.
Also, I definitely subbed to the musician who made this track 10/10
I'm super happy that this was of such usefulness to you. I'll make sure to keep it up for the future! :3 Also, if you have any other specific questions, feel free to ask here, on discord ([CnD] Xyonon#4633 or on the SC Help Desk) or ingame (Xyonon.3987). Gl hf !
@@Xyonon hi I like the jedi knight style of holosmith but the rotation seems complex for me, is kitless build still relevant? (I heard they are outdated)
Your dedication is amazing
I do my best! :)
still the best era in the game x)
Great video! Great music!! Great info!!! Thank you very much.
Glad you like it! :)
@@Xyonon :D I am really digging Holosmith. I will start with Sword (PBM, Mines), but i find the Rifle rotation much more fun, though i have trouble with equipping and unequipping the kits, once i learn that, that's all i am playing.
Great vid! Helped me a lot! :-)
Legendary
Sword (PBM, Mines) seems easy to start with rotationwise. so i should never b using the mine main skill right?
I have been wondering if ''Hard Light Arena'' as an utility skill isnt a good pick, and if not, why not? ^^ I often think its a good pick over grenades because I barely use them. Because my sword/pistal and my photon foprge do so much already haha. What is your opinion on that? I will probably change if you say so.
the boons get covered by other classes in raids, in open world hard light arena is a good choice as you miss these boons ;)
@@hyperakir9209 Thx for the reply good sir :D
Hot! Hot! Hot!
hey can i ask u a couple of questions plz saw that snowcrow benchmark abt the sword pistol more damage than rifle , the heat system to get it at 149 is just plain risky with ping , otherwise u'll mess the whole rotation , would u recommend me for raid and fractale holo rifle or holo sword/pistol with turret ? thanks
Sword/Pistol w/ PBM is probably going to be your easiest bet
Needs more grenades!
But seriously, great info, thank you!
Is the heat adjustment only recommended for Rifle build? Or also for let's say the ECSU Turret Build, or do i have to swap up my sword Build to "match" the heat level i want to start at? (0 -> PBM Mine and 90 -> ECSU Turret)
8:50 :)))
I recommend trying to adjust heat for all builds, but I'm still testing the different values myself too. It can be really hard to decide in pugs if you don't know what timers you're dealing with.
@@Xyonon yikes, reading is recommended :D
thank you ^^
So with Sword and PBM, why Mines instead of Turret? For me Turret seems to work out a little better, but that might of course just be my slow fingers or somthing...
Mines are helping you out with stacking the Ferocity buff from Explosive Temper and are "unaffected" by the overheat cd increase on toolbelts due to them being cast at the delayed specific point in the rota anyway. Surprise shot has lil' issues with the cd on overheat but otherwise performs still ok, besides the Ferocity stacks. If you wanna use turret I'd just go with ECSU instead, that rota covers everything. :) Personally I play ECSU sword the most.
@@Xyonon Oh ok, that makes sense. I figured there had to be another aspect as to what other benefit the mines add. Thanks, appreciated :)
Do you have any examples for bosses/phases where you'd start on 0 or 45 heat on rifle instead of the usual 75.
Hmmm we're still in a phase where we test many things regarding this ourselves, so I can't give you a good answer yet, I'm sorry.
We have for example a
@@Xyonon Sorry for bugging you, but have your testing lead to any more concrete answers as for what bosses/phases it would be good to start on 0 or 45 heat for the rifle pbm build?
how do you get the graph and skill breakdown in arcdps?
Click on any player in Area Stats. If you have "clicking requires modifiers" enabled (so you don't accidentally do that) you need to alt+shift+leftclick. There you have a graph and the skill breakdown. If it's only about your own skill breakdown, "Self Skills" are more accurate. :)
Do you even holosmith
My brain hurts
Thats 50% omega hard try, 50% roleplay. I dont know how to feel. But gz !!
Just go with it... embrace it! x)
❤️
But what if i honk accdientally in a raid?
