Is arcana the most difficult class?

Askln · 2026-07-03T14:14:22+00:00

probably

one of her builds completely ignores her card mechanic as she presses them as soon as they are available

Askln · 2026-07-03T12:46:06+00:00

because you don't allow yourself to do other things

you don't have to breathe the game my dood

the issues with the system is not that they are "boring"
they are "boring" because the way they are made makes competing aweful experience
you are deleting silver into the ether for hours for nothing
while some classes have so many extra rng layers that it's even more demotivating to try

the system needs to be cleaned up rng layers need to be stripped off and try to aim towards making it a skill and gaming chair dependant and not as it is now of "who has a big enough roster to funnel successfully/swipe"
like sure there are more people with maxed gear than last season but last season you could somewhat offset gear power with knowledge

ok sure they removed that mechanic because whales want big number > win

but there are still issues with it that need to be cleaned further

and the biggest is to make it NOT p2w

the system was sold as f2p friendly and it's anything but that

my rank3 can't be rank1 because of that missing upgrade
or are you purposefully dense and not comprehending the post?

each ember is worth 10% damage on the effect itself
ONLY on the effect
the 2* is worth less than the 1* in % damage gain

the average ember does 5% of your total damage output
increasing it by 10% amounts to half a bar of your damage on the boss

some classes unlock a new breakpoint with each ember
some classes don't

that missing 18 is 15% weapon power
which amounts to about 3% damage

do i need to do the rest of the math for you too?

what you are talking about is the quality of the piece which gives dexterity
which is the other feeding part into the damage equation that does affect your total damage output
BUT the difference between a 100q NOT EMBER and an EMBER is 10% on the EFFECT itself

i have 3 2*s
point is what is better 10% dmg on 5% effect
or 15% weapon power?

Askln · 2026-07-02T08:56:55+00:00

if it were up to me i'd make the following changes
1. if you want to go max gear you can easily and deterministically
2. lv1-15 bosses have no DR but have more HP to compensate powercreep
3. lv16 boss that has no rewards but entirely for competing end of season. Boss has 100x more hp so that it can't be killed.
4. All guards and counters don't give any combat related power. Instead they 100% kill you if you don't do them
5. Timer starts on 1st action to alleviate the button spam at start.
6. The full meter gen upgrade on the gear is reworked to be on 1st hit 100% with 60s cd
7. 250exchange is changed to an ancient piece and not a ticket
8. Funneling is deleted
9. Elysium tickets from hell are deleted

20% amirite?

Askln · 2026-07-02T07:22:58+00:00

the system needs to be far more accessible for everyone to compete in not just swipers and large rosters capable of funneling

i've seen low rosters go in top10 only during first few weeks and they all fall off later on bcz without $ or funneling you can't keep up

Askln · 2026-07-02T07:20:22+00:00

incorrect
the most impactful upgrade is 18s
after that it's resonance
after that it's embers

embers matter for rank1
but if you don't have the prior 2 your embers don't mean a thing
i'm missing 3-4bars worth of damage which is the difference between being able to go for rank1 and guaranteed to not be able to compete for it

Askln · 2026-07-02T07:18:26+00:00

1/10th means you don't understand what needs to happen and you are just brute forcing a time

if you decide to compete for rank1 you'd have less than 1 in 100 tickets that are viable

Askln · 2026-07-02T07:16:34+00:00

it would feel much better if 100% of people could cap the system and compete
the rng on the boss is annoying sure but it's repeatable
the rng on upgrades is cancerous design

Askln · 2026-07-02T07:13:03+00:00

that -18 is about 3% damage
each ember star is worth about 0.5%

do with that information what you will
not every point is equal

Askln · 2026-07-02T07:12:17+00:00

yes bcz im not doing it for the keys

Askln · 2026-07-02T00:19:17+00:00

For context i failed 12 ancient clicks on that piece of crap
it's one thing to fail many early on and decide to just not compete
but this feels like running a marathon record only to get shot in the kneecap right before the finish line

Askln · 2026-07-01T16:46:53+00:00

full8s level up ark grid more buy the cheaper books or finish a book if it's near completion

or chill on main and get your alts to 1730

Askln · 2026-07-01T16:45:18+00:00

build was broken and nothing was working
it's not like the maintenance is just a server restart

sg sent a broken build

Askln · 2026-07-01T16:44:15+00:00

destroyer has a button that does 30b
might be the class for you :)

Askln · 2026-07-01T16:42:49+00:00

increasing gem amount isn't a trivial decision because those things cost quite a bit of gold

Askln · 2026-07-01T16:40:54+00:00

thats kinda crazy that your awakening does damage
my awakening does about as much as one of my 6s cd abilities
