ty for the video! i run the same build (except for viper's back) but i do about 10k less dmg, any idea why that could be? surely not just because of the back?
@@sunlaserI play on 200+ ping and I don't find it to be an issue. Understanding cast times and certain animation cancels with how you enter/exit kits is really important to any engi build. Check your logs and see how many skills you are canceling in cast and try to do the rotation slightly slower to pick up on cast timings better and slowly work your way up in speed
I do agree with "not worth" tho - it extremely quickly loses DPS in an actual raid due to static fields and melee dependency - it's very hard to adjust the rotation on the fly for it to keep working out if anything "not-dps-golem-ish" happens. I think the number isn't the issue but all the other things sadly are. :(
@@Xyonon I personally find the rotation to be extremely fluid outside of golem, it's more of a priority list than a rotation. It's true there are fights where it doesn't do as well as other builds, such as twins, but there are also so many where it's pretty good. For fractals, it's one of the best for 99/100CM imo, the cooldowns line up perfectly. Way more fun than pressing 4 buttons every 10 seconds on condi mech.

my head hurts just watching this rotation holy hell
The greatest build in the game! Thank you Beng
Wonderful work, Beng! A rotation this complex deserves to do 100K DPS in my book.
As always, thank you! :)

Almost every time the problem is "you are too slow at pressing buttons"
Too slow or ping , condi holo is pure button mash piano 😂
@@investor9653 must be ping then cause sometimes the skills arent even going off when i press them as fast

this honestly doesn't feel worth it lol, hardest build i think
It's really not that bad once you get used to it. I can play this build at 95% bench but somehow cant do more than 30k on tempest or willbender...
