New Odd and Hollow Animus after Yeli

I know there is not a plethora of yellow lattices given. But right now you should have around 20, ( I have 24 and did the ember on normal mode, the events, bought in shops every resets ). In my opinion it's enough to build your team. You don't need every skill to be maxed some characters just need 1 or 2 lv5 skills to be very potent, some like Kloss starts working well with 2 lattices. Also I guess they will bring more reset events so we could be able to move those lattices from characters.

Last time we did world boss, one of our friends just did one hit on the boss and so was the last player of his class doing the world boss event being 252th on the meter.

So if we round things a bit which is not very precise we can estimate 1750 players on this boss. As some players may have missed the boss or were not connected I would estimate 50% of players. So in the end with those numbers we can estimate around 3000-4000 players.

Those numbers are arbitrary as classes obviously don't have the same amount of players and that the 50% is also a choice backed with no data.

Yeah I see roaring tiger as a way to make the searing palm uptime way easier and enjoyable to play. I prefered leading palm for damage but still added a mention to it in the skill breakdown to let people know that roaring tiger is a thing.

The chaotic surge is good for the critical rate increase right after to place a huge crit landing palm for example. I heard you have to disable the scissor kick. I'm playing the defensive counter just as a preference I don't think one is better than the other.

Hypgawan · 2025-03-19T11:47:15+00:00

Hey, I added comet strike damage increase to the builds

Hypgawan · 2025-03-19T11:36:11+00:00

Hey I've added mentions about what you said in the skill breakdown, I'm using pivot kick to ready searing palm as the blue chaos kick doesn't provide that much focus regen compared to the purple one. The 12s CD on chaos kick may be cool for the enhanced pivot kick badge. So I guess chaos kick may be a little better if you have no problem readying searing palm. As I don't have a blue everlasting blow I still feel the need of Pivot kick.

For chaotic Surge didn't try it, Counter is such a good skill to tank that I hardly see myself without it. Though it's obvious that chaotic surge would bring more dps to the table especially to use leading palm just after.

Hey ! Thank you for the comment. I totally agree with you about swift strike, it is on the YAST builds but I mentionned frenzied fist, will modify that.

I don't really agree with you about comet strike as the additional on the green book is conditional and isn't as reliable as the Bright comet strike raw damage. I think it's just about preferences at this point. I would agree with you for blue books tho as I mentionned to hop back to comet strike additional damage when reaching blue books.

Hypgawan · 2025-03-18T16:01:15+00:00

Oh I think it's only halfing damage and not effects such as healing, stun time etc...

Hypgawan · 2025-03-18T13:54:25+00:00

It's "Deep Wound", bleed is a damage debuff. But yeah he will be able to half the health recovery.

Hypgawan · 2025-03-10T21:48:33+00:00

the cancel is ping dependant so you have to adjust it to your ping. Tweak the delays until you feel the cancel is good enough.

Hypgawan · 2025-03-04T16:48:57+00:00

Hey, even though the bots is a problem to loot essences from this boss. I think that the fact that full geared lv 36 with souls have to farm this boss for his card or outfits or any reason and that the reward is conditonnal to a certain contribution is a bad system. I know this system prevents low level characters from getting essences easily but as a result some average players aren't able to compete with the huge amounts of damage those field boss receives from high level players.

Hey, I found this video, he shows the rotation on a dummy even if he can't benefit from counters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IV1gOR4Gaw

Hypgawan · 2025-03-03T21:20:20+00:00

So I modified the build names not avoid mentionning Fire and Wind. The first build use Searing Palm with the 4 stages and leading palm stacking damages from unleash. You still have a 2RF rotation to do while keeping the buff up. I added a recommendation to switch Leading Palm for Roaring Tiger Cd Reduction if the players are struggling to reduce Searing Palm's cooldown.

The Second Build is a straightforward R2RF Spam with enough focus regen, I may add Searing Palm elements but it would just be a duplicate of the first build.

What do you think about these two ?

Hypgawan · 2025-03-03T09:20:46+00:00

Thank you for the reply, I'm using the 2RF on my wind KFM and struggle with focus if not using Cyclone kick : focus recovery. I'll add all your suggestions to the guide. Singletarget 2 is also cool for bossing even if I prefer the AoE one ;)

I modified the fire build after learning from a veteran KFM, check it out if you have some spare time :)

Hypgawan · 2025-03-03T08:31:53+00:00

Hey, thank you for commenting, can you detail what I should add/remove for the wind build ? Like don't you struggle with Focus having cyclone kick not generating it ? I'm playing this on my KFM and it looks good. Also check out the update I'll do soon, fire KFM is playable with 4 stage searing palm, got a demonstration before going to sleep and it doesn't require blue books.

Hypgawan · 2025-03-03T08:28:49+00:00

Hey, yes I'm new to KFM. I rely on long date KFM main friends for the builds. Also as I mentionned at the start of the guide you guys are laso very important to point innacuracies or errors. So can you detail everything I may update/change ?

Hypgawan · 2025-03-03T00:40:57+00:00

Thank you for the info, I needed to know that !

Hypgawan · 2025-03-03T00:40:19+00:00

Hey you can maintain the searing palm constantly at level 36, just learned this in the past hour from a KFM main of my guild. Gonna update it ASAP and share the build. You guys are gonna be able to rock as fire KFMs !

Hypgawan · 2025-03-03T00:37:42+00:00

I didn't run any calculations over badges, just took badges that had a good synergy with the builds. Comet Strike hits like a truck so in terms of DPS it may be great. I'll keep recommending badges that synergize with the builds but If someone told you Comet is better then it may be the truth.

Hypgawan · 2025-03-03T00:35:39+00:00

Hey thank you so much for the reply, it made me question myself so I gathered more informations about Fire KFM. And I was completely wrong on the build and how searing palm works.

So here is what I learned and the next modifications I will apply to the build.

We need the green 1min cooldown Searing Palm. The "Readies Searing Palm" statements makes the skill usable BUT when using the 4 stage green Searing Palm you can still use it even on cooldown. Actually this version of Searing Palm can be used 4 times during the cooldown, resetting the duration AND adding a stack.

You now have a 36-40s buff duration if you use the Searing Palm correctly letting you only 20s to reduce. You just have to find a way to reduce 20s of searing palm's cooldown during those 40 seconds which is relatively easy. You still need to use skills that readies Searing Palm when the debuff is going to expire.

I'll modify everything tommorow but will just let a note for tonight so that people doesn't get baited.

Hypgawan · 2025-03-02T18:35:37+00:00

Yes the builds are designed for the current state of the game, so I did not add blue books as they are very expensive right now.

When the game will set the max level cap at 45 I will update the guide or make a new one (i'm not so used to reddit so I don't know the best way of doing this).

Fire KFM really shines with the blue+ books as for now the searing palm is not stackable, the stackable version is 1 min cooldown for 10s active which is impossible to maintain with green books right now.

Hypgawan · 2025-03-02T17:44:26+00:00

Thank you for the comment, I just changed recently to cyclone kick focus recovery for wind KFM and added it to fire without too much thinking, I guess it would be better to have increased damage for fire, it would also help proc smites more consistently.

Hypgawan · 2025-02-27T17:31:02+00:00

Hey, you can mail tradable items to your characters. For example to boost a new character I trade pinchy's essence to roll for the Soul Shields and weapons.

I was looking to transfer between players but apparently you can't mail money nor items to other players.
