    Not sure why people want to claim Lightning Strike is bad. There is a ginormous difference between "is bad" or "is not as good". Damage numbers should be taken cautiously, to make a simple example: A weapon deals infinite damage once in the entire run. It will have the highest damage and dps, but killed 1 enemy. And before you say that's a stupid example, that's more or less what happened with Pentagram and people believed it's OP.

    Here is a Lightning Strike only run - I don't think I need to point out how much worse it is to pick just 1 ability compared to 3, yet it hit level 97, just 3 levels shy of 100 and if optimized (I kept all items I had here to not change the run) could easily hit 100. And just before someone comes at me and says "But Kugelblitz is better!!!1", I chose these 3 weapons for a reason, not because I'd think they are bad - so yes, the weapon is in there because it's top.

      Using only dps is not a good way to know a weapon good or bad . In most game , if you did 6k dmg to a 300 hp enemy its only counted at deal 300 dmg . Lightning Strike is more of a single target weapon , it mean to deal with small amount of strong enemies and bosses . So in a horde survival game ofc it cant out dps aoe weapons . Not to mention Lightning Strike has cc as well . Before it could stun lock stage 1 boss and prevent the boss from firing the death countdown projectile . Not sure if it still is the case now

      In the context of AOE kills like this, I'd say Lightning Strike is poor. The steam board swears by it, but it just seemed to me like it was just sniping things which may or may not get cleaned up by Ring Blades a lot. The explosions are pretty small but the worst thing for me is that it has a dead upgrade. I never want to level it to 6+ because it might block me from finding a good upgrade like Ring Blades or Kugelblitz or Arcane Slivers, and even at lv3 it's a 50/50 gamble.
      It's a trade-off I just don't want to make when I have 9 other Abilities+Upgrades I'd rather find for AOE kills like this.
      At least the next patch and today's beta will add some rerolls for us, which makes that drawback to Lightning Strike a lot less of an issue.

      Its bad when you have low coverage, low attack speed, low damage. overall low coverage and provides nothing what another skill can do... what this weapon can do is putting you in a bad spot sometimes because of the fact that this thing hits targets further away who possesses no imidate danger... fanboy talk doesn't make lightning strike more viable its just that... talking without saying anything of value.

    To my knowledge the developers have said that the "Blue" experience gems do not increase in experience value on Merge.
    So if the Blue Gems combine at 10 Standard Blue Gems, then the resulting value of the Merged Blue Gem would be the same as 10 separate Standard Blue Gems.

    I will offer the clarification that Hunter's Garb is additive with other Damage% bonuses AND that mixtures of Damage% bonuses are additive as well.
    Sorceress does a nice round 100, which went to 140 with Garb, 190 with Dmg Blessing + Garb, and 240 with Dmg Blessing + Lightning Blessing + Garb.
    While it is 100% better for kills and exp farming than a chest piece with no offense contribution, I just wanted to be accurate with HOW good it is in case there's ever another decent offensive alternative that doesn't require you to stand still. Honestly, I'd never even looked it up before how the Blessings stack.

  • @kamikazekoenful
    @kamikazekoenful Год назад +2

    Ringblade is better than Lightning Stike. Perhaps even Kügelblitz too. Those spells do damage offscreen and will kill enemies far before they walk into your Lightning Strike range. I also feel that standing still does not kill as much enemies as running around does, because when you're standing still you're dependent on the movement speed of the enemies coming towards you (which is fairly slow), whereas if you're killing enemies instantly already, grabbing as much movement speed as you can allows you to walk into their spawn faster. Perhaps the stacking effect of XP when standing still makes it worth it, but I haven't seen any numbers on that.

      But lighting strike isn't there to deal the most damage but to be the most consistent kill partaker. It oneshots enemies at max screen range instantly while any other ability has to get there first. This leads to more spawns than with any other weapon in the first place.

    This reminds me of basically EVERY build-discussion in any mmo, independent of the "position" of the build. Like for example:
    especially support-builds in PvP (especially large-scale PvP). So yeah, Build 1 has like 3 times the healing and 3 times the condition-cleanse (removing negative effects like damage debuffs or taking damage over time) compared to build 2.
    But: once you start looking at "effective healing" and "effective cleansing" (so the numbers that ACTUALLY got performed, rather than what would theoretically be the possible maximum), you often realize that Build 1 (the so-called "3-times better" build) has 2/3 of it being over-heal/over-cleanse (aka, healing applied when the ally was full-life and didn´t need healing, or cleasing applied while there was no condition to be cleansed, or conditions that aren´t required to be cleansed). The same goes for Damage. There´s no point in hitting an enemy for a 1,5k damage hit, if the average HP the enemy has is ~800. you´re wasting half of your damage onto a single target, that would achieve more if it were spread multiple instead.
    People LOVE high numbers. That´s also why especially in "larger" games/genres (like Hack-n-Slash games like Diablo, MMO's in general), you will eventually end up with ridiculously high numbers. It´s just more satisfying to see a 1,5million-crit, compared to a 20-crit, even if in relation to the %-damage, both do exactly the same. The thing is (as i just said), they have to be put into context, like enemies hit, cast frequency, etc.

    FYI
    I'm guessing the bonus exp takes effect when the single shard of exp turns in to a pile of exp.... I don't think I saw a single pile of exp while you were talking about bonus exp though.
    Oh, also the red border and gold thread border traits only have a single option path... so if you level all of them up first you clear them from the trait pool and can be more picky about the blue border traits and "weapon" traits.
    Doing this I have gotten up to 4 options for some of the weapon trait levels.

      I don't think it's guaranteed, you still need to build for getting enough kills. Roughly 20k kills by the end. Some builds can be fun and ultra safe but slow at killing enemies and thus slow at allowing new enemies to spawn, thereby shorting you on exp.
      That's why Ring Blades is pretty much the best ability here, it gets a lot of screen coverage.

But even worse, RUclips shows Shorts at the end of longform content. Since shorts earn nothing (like, they do, but its more than 100 times less than longform content), they have 0 value. The only thing they are really good at is inflating the subscriber amount AND using it to promote streaming.

      Agreed about the shorts. What about having edited content videos (~10mins long) that has infographics on what's good, what's not etc. The only way to consume your current content is to sit through the entire run. I'm not sure where the "golden nugget" of info I'm looking for is

      To preface this also, you are one of the only highly knowledgeable content creators in this game genre (that I personally like watching). But man is it time consuming, and I'd rather not watch you in a secondary screen while doing other stuff

      I play with it on as long as I don't see enough value in manually taking over, but I got really used to the manual toggling with the R key. When I need it I quickly switch over and manually kill enemies in the way, else I just let auto aim do it for me

      @DexTag one thing to note is if you use controller, you can manually aim at any time without needing to open the pause menu. Now i cant go back to mouse lol
