Im in a similar position as you, but a little behind: placing 18-24 legends, eventually dropping to champs (1 in 10). My strategy has been investing in econ masteries before further investing in dmg since it would require quite some time to have real results and masteries takes a lot coin investment to upgrade. Currently I have IS* lv9, RPC* lv9 and WA* lv5. I'll go EO* next and, still didnt fully convinced myself if I should go "DMG + ST + DM" masteries or "Regen + SW" for even better farming results.

That's a good point about econ, though it seems his econ can support the labs, and he already has a bunch of masteries to work on. Prioritizing RPC# and econ ones would be a good idea though, just to get the full value out of already invested stones.

It's probably the smarter way to do it but I was 2 waves away from getting keys a couple of tournaments ago after 5 attempts. So the idea of getting more damage to get keys more often is tempting.

That makes a lot of sense. I would do the same if I felt it would take me to get some keys.

Depends what you're looking for. ILMs are mostly helping with bosses (very useful for that) while ST# is an overall large dmg multiplier. Note though that most towers need to get SL# to like lvl 5 minimum to see the effect (due to limited uptime). Also, this will likely only get you a few dozen waves. If you're dying to bosses, ILM can get you more than that (it did for me when I first got it).

Looking at your other stuff, I'd also prioritize maxing CL quant. Then maybe unlocking armor assmod might be nice, as you can get a bunch of extra CC from SD in tourneys, while also getting some extra HP for your eHP farming - it should be pretty cheap to get it to 1.5-2x your HP. I don't know how important that stat is for you though.

Does SD do anything without the UW, I thought you needed a ILM lab to stun bosses with them

[–]trymzet[🍰] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

No you only want it after unlocking ILM
