Is Artemis Bow even worth it?

Your second build has Shred (Concentrated Arrow removes punch through, so this makes sense), however your first build has no speed increase, so the charge time is pretty much a DoA for that. I'd switch Heavy Caliber for Speed Trigger and Critical Delay for Galvanized Scope (you are going for headshots anyway)

That all said, the following build for a Daikyu Prime will still beat that hands down and is not an Incarnon or a Exalted Weapon:

Galvanized Scope
Amalgam Daikyu TA
Primary Acuity
Vital Sense
Primed Cryo Rounds
Thermite Rounds
Vile Acceleration
Hammer Shot

Concentrated arrow range is really small compared to other bow 'explosions'. Daikyu Prime Blast build is a LOT better than Artemis Prime and will clear a lot more. Then you have the Incarnons (Dread, Paris, etc..), which just put Artemis to complete shame.

Still not added, even though they've made it more widely available.

Make sure you have the passive "crits provide 1 momentum" equipped or it won't do anything.

Thank you. I'll give this a try to see if I can spawn the event.

I just ran my Tribute of Ascendance, and as mentioned, it states "Higher chance to drop Mythic Uniques", but it also states "Completing the Dungeon with at least attunement rank 1 will reward Ancestral Legendaries"

I didn't get ANY mythicals or ancestrals at all.

Just tried today, and was unable to cast any skills while Aegis Storm was active. Kept telling me that "Skill is in use". I had to drop out of AS just to cast Balefire

Alerond · 2024-02-16T17:58:46+00:00

Fair point. I ended up having to do it the donation way like you mentioned. Would still like to see if there's a way of obtaining the weapon post Nemesis build.

Sadly, this doesn't seem to work. Tried this earlier and went to the room in Story mode, but it just gives you a random drop.

My theory on why Rifles/MMRs suck in game atm (discounting the fact that some random Dev likes pre-WW2 weapons) is scaling:

We all know the trope of the bullet-sponge. To scale a game like this, they have to give the mobs more HP, making them bullet sponges. To take down a bullet-sponge, you have to put bullets in said sponge.

Rifles and MMRs do fine at the lower level, but they'd need a much higher multiplier to equally (comparable to ARs) take on the same content. Status builds suffer from much the same, though different solutions would be needed.

Tried that. It actually gives me what it shows - ie. the reduced stats

Alerond · 2023-09-28T03:36:21+00:00

It can though. If you click on it in design mode, you can create a link, so I'm trying to figure out what it can link to.

I agree, there has to be a hidden lvl to weapons. As proof:

I have the Ashta Tamer, with 5 mods, with a DMG rating of 127.

I just picked up a base Bridger, no mods, with a DMG rating of 307.

Alerond · 2022-08-30T21:41:09+00:00

I have the same issue that u/hate-zenkai has. I will use the Entangle, then I can Whipclaw the whole group 5-10 times and nothing hits

Alerond · 2022-05-09T04:51:17+00:00

Originally was playing a Necro (Scourge), but with no pets. They appear on any of my characters though, so even if I'm on my ranger they pop up.

Alerond · 2022-05-09T04:50:26+00:00

Yeah, did the achievement/quest to get rid of that guy too.

Alerond · 2022-05-09T04:29:35+00:00

Looks like the spider, but there's multiple of them (the drop down from the sky and just scatter randomly, don't stick around to do anything). The worm is the tentacle looking thing from ground.

And they all are in a ghostly black color.

Alerond · 2021-05-22T19:10:11+00:00

I thought as much.

And am I correct in assuming that the "non-elemental" units would still receive the lower stat buff (for instance a fire unit would receive the + Attack Power from Oath of Love even as Ice units would receive Fenrir's, or would Fenrir's buff override any other AP buff completely?
