i think dungeon boss health should be increased even more, especially in master, you should really put in work for your 56 statroll artifice armor
Seriously like it’s too easy and the drops are way too generous
You put some respect on Gahlran, gosh dang it.
They should at least double it. 1 hour solo flawless dungeons are way too short!
No way. It’s just artificial difficulty that makes the fights less fun. Master i guess whatever but definitely not in normal mode.
@@disbled this is a joke right? 💀
Man even went out of his way to acknowledge the correct pronunciation of Ergo Sum. Damn, he really is the GOAT
I'm surprised more people don't know how to pronounce it. It's a pretty popular quote
@@tomekk.1889 I'm sure everyone knows of the quote but I doubt most have actually HEARD it
I think, therefore I am: cogito, ergo sum
@@Destinyingamephisics *tips fedora*
@@tomekk.1889 because people don't care
I don’t think I have the words to describe how much I respect aegis for doing this, not only once but twice
Aegis, a living Destiny legend. Love seeing your videos in my feed!
If anyone remembers the disappointment that was the wild style double fire nightfall breech GL, it now gets reconstruction and bait as of this episode
This video is so polarizing, because on one hand it has a lot of awesome work and data in it, on the other hand bungies methods for balance and numbers implementation feels like cursed knowledge 💀. I hope they keep trying to clean this up.
It's definitely messy and cursed, but this is a huge step in the right direction. Before, morgeth would take 12k per shot from xenophage, while gahlran took 31k per shot. Now, they both take exactly the same damage, so we can compare bosses to each other a lot more easily.
I just want to say that, ive been playing destiny on and off since around halfway through shadowkeep and i never really looked too much into optimiziation at all despite being really interested in it because it felt like there was no one doing this type of stuff, most content i saw was build videos on whatever the new hot thing was (which is great content, not bashing them), and never looked more into it tbh.
Now with salvations edge i saw your contest mode streams and the day 1 builds video, and when i saw the google doc i was FILLED with excitement and i cant say how much i LOVE your content and what you do, everything from the extremely interesting speedrun breakdowns, to damage calculations and conversations about the sandbox have helped me understand this game in a way i never was able to before (because to be quiet frank, d2 does a pretty poor job at giving you pretty significant details) which amplifies my enjoymend hundredfold, thank you so much to you and your team for testing all this data and making it so publicly available for everyone to learn and partake! Videos like these are so extremely exciting and interesting and i always felt like i would never be able to have this experience in d2 until i found your channel. Keep up the AMAZING work!
Thanks so much for doing your testing, it’s so valuable to have one solid reference to go to that has trustable statistics. Keep up the great work!
I’m downloading this form my plane ride in 20 minutes. I’ve been waiting for this video for weeks!
Community is lucky to have you providing us with this info. Super grateful.
Wow! As always, this is an incredible video! Thank you for putting all the time and effort into tracking all these stats.
wait tlord is 3% above the baseline?? its meta again boys
37:50 Most of those raid bosses that have increased health were all included in Pantheon
Well except the worst offender here, Crota
And the 2 duality bosses definitely weren't in the pantheon :)
@@Lookout1000 He was in week 5 pantheon. 2nd to last boss. Idk why everyone just quit at week 4 cause bungie didn't make ppl do week 5 for title.
@@yourbrojohno bait
@@Lookout1000 nah hes telling the truth on week 5 they added crota and taniks
I love this. You explain the data and how you collected and calculated everything very well. Keep at it.
Best D2 RUclipsr out there. The information you put out is amazing, and there is no bullshit just straight to the point. Love the vids thanks for the info
needed this to get through work thanks aegis
The level of detail you put into this is insane. Aspiring to your level of dedication
finally, great work you one of a kind to do this community research for us big love
It's a lot to take in all at once for me, so I'm only about halfway through.
I appreciate you coming back and correcting things, and explaining what you change and why. Things like the crit modifier for Riven and stuff like that.
Also just thanks again for the work you and your helpers put into making these resources for the rest of us!
freaky
Exactly what i needed. Thank you so much!
This is some seriously impressive spreadsheeting and statistics
Looking forward to the Ergo Sum video! Hard addict for those drops
you are awesome, its insane work
Thank you for your work
Thanks for sharing ! You are the best
He came back when we needed him most. Thanks you Aegis.
Im really impressed on how much i learned in this video
Yay!!!!! The equipment tab is something I lived by last season
I would think testing different seasons would be hard due to artifact mods and surges so kudos to you for doing this!
bro knows more about the game than any bungie employee
I worry people actually think this
@dylanmiller1140 yes and no the devs obviously know more over all. But that being said there's a reason developers pay gametesters to play thier game. this comming from somone that has done it
we do love a data heavy yap video :D
This is complete conjecture, but my guess as to why damage values for Kell Echo is doubled might have to do with the fact that you are teleported to an entirely separate area during the fight. When this happens, its not uncommon for devs to make a copy of the boss thats present in both areas instead of moving a single one back and forth. Then you just link the two together so that any damage dealt to one is dealt to the other, effectively doubling your damage dealt.
this is so awesome
you are the goat
those runs were fire
That's my GOAT
I could listen to Aegis talk about numbers for hours.
If you watch the video on 0.5x speed you can:D
Woohoo, Aegis upload
The damage testing versoin of esoterickk. Both legends ❤
I got so exited when i saw this vid😂
i think i love you vro :3
Do the effective health changes apply to Master as well? or since those had higher Recommended Power then not as much??
Speaking of ergo sum I've been using this aggressive frame arc conductor roll that i got, on herald and it's putting out a pretty consistent 2mill per damage phase
I’m still shocked that the caretaker has the most HP (pre TFS)
Not the most effective HP but yeah he has a fair amount
He has a very weird damage multiplier
@@disbled bro was quirky
With RNG heavy drops he was ass on day 1.
caitl's back is literally a heat vent
Thank you vog shield
U should probably start linking your stream labs tip page or a way to give you something at the end of your video or in the description, you don't have to mention it but just like leave it somewhere easy to see :)
I might but the description is already pretty dense haha
I have a question that I can't find the answer for how much more damage does an adaptive frame do over an vortex frame on a sword?
On root 2-3 skip when you get at the secret chest room what is the best spot to skate from because the slammer has to much speed and so you can't skate from on top of it unless you hit a specific angle so it s not rly that consistent
The anecdotes of feeling like bosses have more health turned out to be true. Great video once again.
Aegis, I don’t see anyone talking about how Ergo Sum gives Wolfpack rounds to rocket launchers as well as swords. Not sure how it changes team rotations but I know for solo players it lets their rockets do more damage
So I've always believed that atrax gets a baked in damage multiplier while he's disappearing. So that's why people say to use your higher damage weapon second since shes disappearing and will have a damage multiplier. Is this not true?
Id really like to see aggressive frame fusion in the reference tab.
You mention that its to see how baseline weapons perform and which weapon types may be underrepresented due to bad perks around the 10:00 mark
I have had a feeling for years that aggressive frame fusions are a good archetype held back by the only entry having the worst perk pool in the franchise and I really want to see if I should keeo advocating for another aggressive frame fusion (or a europa perk refresh)
I'm too lazy to grind for one lowkey but if someone has one with Accel I'll have them join me to get numbers haha
@@TheAegisRelic good to hear. I as the only Coriolis force enjoyer am dying for some retribution.
Hey Aegis, when I try to make copies of your spreadsheets, it tells me I need access. I've never experienced this before, I'm not really sure if it's something on your end or not but figured I'd say something, its been happening for a while now and I just assumed you didn't want it being copied.
Hey Aegis, have you ever tested if the pre- and during final stand health per pixel is the same? Ive always been curious if some bosses have extra health during FS that make it look like you're closer to finishing than you actually are.
I believe it is but I can investigate further in the future
About a-traks, I think you can deal precision damage to kill its clone, but the damage got transferred to the health bar count as a body shot damage.
Perhaps, but there was a linear trend that continued even after the clone broke
Right! 🗣
Bro points out how this video is a yap session like that isn’t the sole reason I watch your videos
Feels like a swan song for meme raid runs 😭
I wonder if the massively increased health pool for Crota was to compensate for sword buffs? That being said if this is the case it would just nerf any other strategy to be even worse compared to swords than they already were.
Not sure if I feel that negatively about the change though, just going to use Swords anyway
A fun thing to think about is how would witness be with the old changes
As a Data Engineer, this whole thing is screaming to be put into a database and then have a front end like PowerBi run over the top. Similar to how D2Foundry dynamically adjust data based on inputs but with even more data.
Some people have sent me towards PowerBI recently, I might check it out and integrate it into a website or something some day!
I believe in some patch (maybe in s15??) they increased kell echo health without increasing time to kill. I can remember kell used to have 3.5 mil and they buffed it to 7m, which would account for the 2x wipe screen damage. Does anyone else remember this?
Now that you have a following would you be able to crowd source rolls for testing, to save a bit of grind time?
For Ergo? I plan on it, I'll need to for 5 man scaling
17:55 this is some arcane knowledge type shit
Bread🍞
Re: effective health, imo the most parsimonious answer is that they applied the weapon changes and normalization, and then tested each one for ‘feel’ and adjusted them individually up or down to make the raid’s difficulty come more from doing the encounter correctly/safely than from having to readjust your entire damage strategy just to shred the boss. But I might be misunderstanding the discrepancy.
Maybe! I'm not sure if they went in and tweaked boss health beacuse that's something they have never done before IIRC
Kind of a stupid question but i get easily lost in very well done spreadsheets like this, but is there a tab that has a pound for pound best dps method for each boss for each class? Strange question yeah i know but I figured id ask
He explained in the video it used to, but it needs updating so he cleared it out because all the old rotations were now inaccurate.
@@meateaw Yeah no you're right, I made the comment too early into the video and was too lazy to edit or delete it lol :p
What music did you use for the background? It sounds really pleasant to listen to.
It's random no copyright chill music lol
testing methodology changes should really be mentioned in the sheet somewhere if they aren't already
i 100% would have though shotguns got buffed if i didn't have this on in the background while doing other work
a comment on the cell like for riven would be perfect
Sheet is out! bungie devs can finally start balancing.
28:25 i would instead divide cumulative damage by % pixels gone for each row to see how much variation there is in estimated total boss health. Eg compare mean to the last xeno shot. Or take out a few early shots to calc mean. I dont think a regression analysis is the tool to use
In case its not obvious, a graph of what I am proposing should like a horizontal line
Keaton approved
Warlord's Ruin seems to be weird with rPL changes compared to normal dungeons, it seems to be using the power level disabled settings while not explicitly stating it for normal mode (if you look at combatant difficulty where the power cap is stated, it seems to be set to -1 power instead of 1945)
EDIT: the -1 is visual it's the same rPL as other dungeons, though keep in mind that other tuning settings could be different from other dungeons
ive noticed this too, wonder if its just a visual bug with the HUD or if power level is actually -1
@@andrewberger3110 it's visual, i just confirmed that WR is the same power cap as other dungeons at 1945
although i will say that it might still be using some tuning from the power disabled activities but that would be a bug
They call him the Aegis Goat
I believe part of the answer is how much we could overlevel each activity.
For example Crota was a 1790 power boss (death screen).
GotD final boss was a 1810 power boss.
While legacy content, such as Oryx or Rhulk was a 1600 boss.
I believe legacy content allowed a higher power advantage than non legacy content.
Now everything is 1950 and the power deficit is the same for all activities.
I accounted for that, it doesn't explain why there's such a huge discrepancy between certain bosses, so I'm still not sure why
Do Atraks, Caretaker, and/or Explicator take different amounts of damage if you go past their threshold?
Yes (+15%), yes (-~22%), no(?)
Whenever you're damaging a boss, there's a numerical boss HP along with %'s under its HP bar. That's is updating in almost real time in the video. Did you edit that in manually as part of research gathering, or is that happening actually real time?
its a 3rd party app that he uses for dmg testing, the same one he talks about in the video
If they dont revert the -5 i dont see a lot of raiders coming back
is bastion really down that far even having received trench barrel(ish)? I have to imagine that outweighs the kinetic nerfs.
On the Reference tab, that's perkless, so no, that has nothing to do with the new perks it got.
Do atracks and caretaker have different health depending on how fast you do or dont kill them. Since thresholds dont count as hp. Do the additional thresholds of not one phasing atracks or caretaker actually reduce hp.
Thresholds do count as part of the HP bar, neither of those bosses regen health any more every cycle
the only thing i did to contribute was run lw with you and give you the morgeth dmg number cuz you forget to write them down o7
sanctified nearly having 10 mill is criminal. gg to garden farms
When you single-handedly do 10 mil to Croat but your team still wipes😭😭😭😭😭
Not my homie croat
Blud is egoing his lfgs even on youtube comments ain't no way
Algo bump comment. Now back to the video.
What lead you to come up with your username and pfp?
I'm pretty sure it was because I really liked the Aegislash Pokemon growing up and I looked up the word and was like, huh, that's a cool word
The profile picture is just the relic from VoG, since people kept asking if I got my name from that, and a bunch of PC hardware in the background, since I used to help people with computer hardware stuff before D2
For Riven and Oryx, if the Crit is somewhat unreliable (for testing) then why not shoot their fingies?
For Riven I did! That was just for crit multiplier testing. As for Oryx, I suppose I could have lol
Honestly rough watch, but respect for getting the data out there.
Are there any ergo rolls that you need? I and I’m sure others would be willing to share my account for some numbers.
Yeah I'll let people know once testing starts
As a programmer, you’re giving me huge software engineering vibes lol
How has anyone disliked this
31:40 it would be more logical to assume that you did 5/6 of her health. 83.3%. I believe each boss has the same size health bar on screen, so any white dividers are likely throwing off the math.
Bro I'm not gonna lie when you broke out the calculator clapping 👏 monkey's 🐒 might aswell been on the screen as them huge numbers went over my head 😅
Yes
Atrax is a weird hp bar, if you talk to a hacker you can do millions of damage of health to him solo and his hp bar will barely move. I dont think its a crit damage thing i think its relevant to how many people are damaging and what they're damaging him with as to what turns into real damage.
❤
i haven’t touched the game since before final shape, i have so much to catch up on. thank god im a pvp player😂😢
Oh god what have you done now people are gonna use queenbreaker
🙏
Yo aegis, tryna start farming either prophecy or duality whats, solid and consistent one phases for Galrhan of Duality or Phalanx of Prophecy for solo runs
I'm not 100% on Duality but I do know the Titan grapple melee spam is an easy 1-phase on Phalanx
@@peanootor8718 was mainly tryna do this on warlock titan solo dungeon runs are boring to me lol . Ive seen crew (the solo proph god) do like parasite hotswap double pellet shotguns but that just doesnt seem replicable and consistent
@@Swaggy_Deity I spent all day yesterday trying to get the auto. Song of flame with star eaters and tractor cannon was a very consistent one phase for me. I was also using the someday shotgun as well.
If you don't have a star eaters try dawn chorus with dragons breath. That was also a really consistent one phase.
Only time it wasn't was when I got booped a little too hard or didn't realize I started damage. Gl with your run with whatever setup you end up doing, but this was fun for me
For warlock,
Prophecy: Phalanx should be easy with almost anything, so just using a sword should be chill, Kell should be probably Still Hunt + HGL / Dragon's Breath or the same strat Crew is using if you want
Duality: Gahlran I don't know if you can consistently one phase on warlock, will probably take a lot of work (SES Nova + Transcendence + Ergo might be a start), Caiatl is probably Izi HGL
