SURPRISING FINDS: A Best Companion Equip Bonus for AoE Damage & Survivability on Tanks - Neverwinter
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- So I just went through some testing of the companion bonus "Igneous Skin". Very surprisingly it works a lot better than expected, especially for survivability! As you will see here, it can be very good for multi target damage, although that can depend on class and abilities used, but it is also one of the best you can use on a Tank when taking lots of random damage overtime!

"Oh, it's multiplicative, what a surprising find."
Cryptic will eunuchize my boi in the next patch :(
I would like if the devs allowed you to favorite mount equips and companion bonuses. It's a pain to scroll through every time
💯
It also works when you take falling damage. Pretty handy. Thanks for the helpful video! :D
Thanks for getting one of the last few decent companions nerfed. What next, it's AoE Control power? 🙄
And the really sad part is, I am not even half joking... 😢
{:o:O:}
Oh dear, sorry xD
@@Aragon-
😢
Don't worry, devs barely fix anything at all (check out the patch notes). I bet this companion will never be ajusted.
@@vsxy-f
They are very slow at fixing things that are bad for the players, it's true. But they are very fast when their Algorithm Bot screams:
*FUN BEING HAD DETECTED! DEPLOY THE NERF HAMMER!* 🔨
{:o:O:}
It will never be fixed because I bet they already know about it. They did have to play test it after all before sending it to the game
That's why you dont tell😅😮😊 Minatory beefy boy going pricy now.
As one of the lucky persons who got it to drop back when I opened the lockbox, I must say I use the mino as active comp ever since. I just love the grouping
Now will be nerfed, thanks 😉
They know without Aragon kid
@@Majorpain32677 "kid" relax tough guy
Edit: Also I just noticed the formula you wrote for damage resist is incorrect, that's more like the defense formula, among others. Incoming damage after damage resist would be: Base Incoming Damage * Π(1 - Individual Damage Resist Source). If you didn't have any additional sources of damage resist when you tested this on rogue, it may be that the comp bonus isn't anything special. That would be normal behaviour if it's the only source of damage resist. Idk exactly how it was tested, I may have missed it while skimming over the video. But if that's the case you may want to double check this.
Minor nitpick, semantics, but technically the damage resist would be additive, while the normal formula is multiplicative. Additive is better for damage resist, or any stat with negative direction.
Damage resist is different from damage bonus, since it's working in the reverse direction. The usual formula works like: you take 1k damage, 10% damage resist brings it down to 900. another 10% resist using new 900 as the base (similar to how multiplicative damage bonus uses the new increased damage as a base) decreases damage taken to 810, a total of 19% less damage taken. Or just 0.9 * 0.9 = 0.81, ofc they're multiplying.
Additive would be 10% + 10% = 20% damage resist. or 1 + (-0.1) + (-0.1), a straight 20% decrease in damage taken, instead of 19%.
You are correct, can confirm with my previous tests done stacking damage resist. Not sure why I didn't remember that. Thanks for the correction.
was thinking of using the mdom shirt to see if it would proc the anti agro companion but now im wondering if it'll proc this
Sehanine Priestess is not something I've seen you mention, it seems to give 4% crit and I assume a 4% crit avoid debuff on enemies, but you have to be within 15'.
hey argon try it on your pally with lich active works great for tank
AH prices will go through the roof now
5.5M on PSN rn
Hey if you don't say anything about it being a bug in your video. Maybe it dont get nerfed into the ground. Sorry i meant "fixed".
Now you've covered how useful that companion is. It wouldn't surprise me if Cryptic sees this upload and then puts it on the Zen Store (💰💰💰)
....obviously once the sales drop off in a month or three, that's when they'll nerf it (lol)
Id have to disagree here... we setup crit avoidance not to take less damage every hit but to take less damage when it matter (when we get critted) this damage reduction bonus have an atbest 33% up time, its a hard pass for tank. Not worth using at all. If cryptic change this it will become completely useless while its already not BiS in most cases
Id rather a 2% DR that is perma up vs this one.
When you are running content where you have no fear of getting one shot, then crit avoid is not as impactful as just reducing the average damage you take overall.
Sure if you are running content with tankbusters where you are afraid of being one shot, then yes, do run your crit avoid
life of a tank must be hard huh
@@Aragon- I think this one feels more usefull for content like lomd 1st , mdwp first , mtic first, Crown alike combats where we keep taking the damage nonestop rather than a massive tank buster ,probably can add mdwp 2nd boss too to this list and maybe the whole fights for mtos , coz most of the fights are like funny small damages and a massive huge incoming one. Example in mlomd second boss I'M not even blocking anything other than the tank buster to get my stamina back as a fighter and my tank is a budget one always on lower than bare min of the dungeons , I think I'M tanking mlomd around 88k or 90k can't remember.
What about the blaspheme assasin comp bonus? Can you test that?
I've used the Minotaur Player Bonus power on Alts as it's already mythic, and my Minsc, NW Knight and so on are Epic. I think using better powers does something to TIL or base damage? Bolster is the same, of course.
{:o:O:}
This seems more for a Wizard. Most of their solo damage is AoE. With throwers I almost always get hit, or if I go into red threat because of my dmg.
"Hit" as in struck by a mob or does a dungeon effect trigger it? Axe phase in mdwp for example.
Any damage hit "should" be able to trigger it
Like even fall damage triggers it
@Aragon- but it wasn't tested so we don't really know. 🤷
Redeemed fallen is highest single target damage companion Aragon I was getting up to 2 million every half second I think it’s glitched
Regis #1 ALWAYS AND FOREVER!!!!!! 😎
Perhaps sometimes dont make a video about things thanks much love the people who appreciate you yet hate it cos now im going to have to find an alternative and maybe respec for the umpteenth time 😢
Announcement made.... Nurf incoming. Anyone would think the devs asked you to bring these things to their attention. Hope not
I was reeaaaally hoping you’d never make this vid.
I’m sure there’s a nerf coming next patch oh we didn’t want it to do that have to balance it now 😂
So, Spined devil is bis ?
for multi target damage, yes
04:38
(1/(1+10%) ? There's a parenthesis missing. Or one too many. Shouldn't it be 1/(1+10%) ?
But, anyway, don't you mean 1/1.1 ?
{:o:O:}
Yes, it would be (1/(1+0.1)) or (1/1.1) or 0.909090909
@@Aragon-
Cheers!
Accuracy and precision in mathematics is very important. Especially when using Excel to run calculations. 😀😀
{:o:O:}
Why do you think alot of people use it.... 😑 thanks for the nerf aragon
Can you please stop ruining these things? Just let people discover them and use them to their advantage, if cryptic actually finds these things they can fix it. Every time you report on things like this things get ruined and nerfed. Just let it go man😅
You do realize that they already know about this Do you. They did write the code to create the companion in the game and play tested it themselves before sending it out to the real game for us to play.
Just tried it and it's gonna get nerfed just watch and see...FIX THE DAMN BUGS FIRST!!!! lol thx Aragon
😮💨🤫🤓
Aragon, thanks for the nerf. How much you've ruined with your developers.... You're just crazy kids with a project that you've sunk to the BOTTOM!
