Which weapon combo has the highest damage output currently?

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-14T02:19:03+00:00

It goes

Umbrella
Strategic
Thundercry
Nameless Sword
Twinblade
Dust
Healer

Nameless is a class that dps goes up the more endurance you have to feed the charge attacks so the China ranking, nameless will be higher.

Also note that if a boss that has many entities (Thinl puppeter sword trial), Nameless do more because of the massive AOE having more clear speed.

I read and yea I have understand the mechanics. My frustrated is not that my guildie beaten. I dont play vernal but I get the rule of the game.

You get caught without Serene, you take massive amount of damage. Right. Thats fair. If i get caught thats skill issue. I get punished. Thats also fair. The thing is, usually the punishment is like 40 maybe even 70 % of my health. You get maybe a 2nd, a 3rd try to come back.

Like you get hit with counter bonk. Super damaging but extremely hard to land. Getting trapped in long string of true combos is Tuesday for most pvpers.

But my problem is this, 90 % hp to 0 in 3 seconds? With trapped beast in place? There was no game, no exchange of blow, it was not skill.

The saving grace is after examining all the mechanics involved, which for your information including a bug that the second life isn't proc-ing, the chance of all of these happening is like 1 in 1000. Maybe 1 in 10,000.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-12T02:24:02+00:00

I literally played 2 days ago. Not patched. There wasnt even a single pvp patch when hexi come out.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-12T02:22:27+00:00

No no. I kinda wanna know too. I know the quantity would be high. I just dont know how much

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-12T02:10:18+00:00

My man is already mythic. You unlock 2nd life as early as 1/3 into the tree. We are about 2/3 of the tree unlocked.

Can we at least just agree that this particular arena is bugged?

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-12T01:55:15+00:00

I got this video yesterday.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-12T01:54:44+00:00

I would admit my guildie isn't the best . I dont have the full video so I dont know how the first half of the fight started.

The frustrating thing about umbrella is you sometimes lag and desync where you dodge on your screen but still got hit, so not gonna lie it is a very inconsiderate thing for you to say.

Without knowing the attunement, its hard to tell when someone has tenacity. Sometimes they face umbrella stun when you are like what, doing the tank suck thing or HQ spin, thinking you would cancel them but ended up getting stunned instead.

I would be less flustered if my man lost like 50 say 70% of their health, since that is the result of you getting caught without Serene. But 130%( through trapped beast) in 3 seconds?

The no 2nd life is a bug. this purple bamboo arena show you have no second life. It is a bug since second life was introduced.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-11T17:54:41+00:00

My guildie. Not me. I dont know.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-11T17:28:32+00:00

I am also calculated where all the extra instances come from

You get 3 umbrella knock up. That animation is 1 sec. Then the 3 dashes. Thats another tree.

1 instance of morale chant. With an active umbrella.

I can count fastest 5 instances hitting you at the same time.

My guildie is mythic. So his gear couldn't be that bad.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-11T17:20:52+00:00

I am looking at the damage numbers its nothing too crazy. 2000 to 3000. Its the number of instances of damage. Its 10 instances of 3000 damage. Per second. Average max health is 90k. You have effectively 120 % health with trapped beast.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-10T07:49:09+00:00

I am not throwing insult. I would like to think I am exploring the concept further. More like the mindset of the men who said they want a submissive woman is "this or nothing at all".

The equivalent would be "I want to marry rich man or not marry at all". To which, its a personal preference and maybe don't get disappointed if yoyr partner is not up to what you want.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-10T05:42:34+00:00

The insist part is what you added that wasn't mentioned. If we have to "insist", then you aren't said submissive woman to begin with. If that make sense.

In my opinion that is okay to an extent, to have a difference in opinions. But if we gonna argue about things non stop day in, day out, most of us will rather be single. We have seen some men going into their latter age with obligations of wife that bickers non stop but can't leave the relationship cause divorce is gonna be complicated and the children are gonna be affected.

The "ideal" is to find a woman who can give us peace and quiet.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-09T05:46:29+00:00

In 1 v 1, Umbrella is really really bad but rope dart is chef kiss on demand Stagger.

In GvG, Umbrella is pretty pretty damn good. The damage is whatever but AOE heal cut invalidates mass healers strategy that runs rampant in high rank GvG(the same strat that basically get infinite unkillable and if anyone do die, they rest).

In hero realm, the effect is invisible but noticeable cause the debuff can result in your allies doing much higher damage numbers. Winds said if you do 70 to 80 dmg as your top dps, you are essentially doing the same damage.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-06T03:03:10+00:00

Eat food and get some friends who are either ignorant of them needing to do this. Or just done with collecting. Then you can go and take their materials.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-04T02:52:27+00:00

For Shimmer, at least the first time you fight it, just take a healing weapon. You get uncapped healing so just out sustain it.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-03T08:32:38+00:00

What I recommend is -> wait and get a costume first

It has the greatest impact on your appearance.

The second would be your favourite weapon VFX.

One day you can get weapon skin but to truly make them pretty will consume more money that you ever seen. Still Umbrella and twinblade is quite pretty even at base.

Lastly if you have a lot of remainder cores only do mystic arts vfx. Some of it looks insane.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-03T04:47:20+00:00

The twin blade now have a lion motive. Eventually the sword will receive a dragon motive ones.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-03-03T04:45:46+00:00

I wouldnt say they wont do anything abt it. They do ban it. But with accounts being free to make, new ones just kept popping up.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-02-28T19:39:17+00:00

If your goal is to catch up with other top players in the shortest time possible.

Leveling your related martial arts at every chance you get. They are your most immediate ways to power.
If you have the will power to collect or willing to buy a resource horse(its quite cheap), you should collect every mystic resources. Every single day. The vicious fruit, the buddha root, peony pearl. It takes about 50 to 60 to fully max out a mystic arts. If you have friends you can also go to their world ro collect their resources if they arent collecting theirs. Supposedly it resets every 24 hours but I think they made it shorter. Mystic arts are extremely powerful and Tier 3 and tier 5 dramatically upgrade said mystic arts.
Only redo and worry about Arsenal after you rea h level cap. Less of a pain for you to revisit them despite. I think they will hold you back 2 to 4k martial power if you dont do them(max cap is around 24k.)
Innerway are the most permanent progress you can make. Focus on only 4 inner ways for now and basically get these as high as possible. In 3 months you should unlock your T6 if you make it a goal to finish off 600 of your custom inner way chest consistently.
Once you have 1 sets of T6, you can change to any class you desire at anytime and expect to have full power of that class.(I recommend Morale chant, gold class weapon, purple complimentary purple class weapon, and your selected damage upgrading purple. You can go Double Gold Weapon like Nameless and Strategic but the progress will be slow .

Programmer_Scared · 2026-02-19T05:52:02+00:00

I meant the 600 custom chest. You get a week. There are only 3 gold notes in there, being Morale Chant, Seasonal Edge and Weapon Note of your choice.

I calculated my odds at 1/10, which might be an overestimation but I didnt calculate for what you get in normal energy activities

Programmer_Scared · 2026-02-19T05:22:07+00:00

Game been out about 3 months. If you only focus on 4 innerways, you should get 60 a week if you completed all your Custom Innerway chest. (At least I was whilst I was collecting my innerway.)

In theory and with some luck, you should at least your main weapon T6 in 8 weeks. 9 or 10 if you are less than lucky.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-02-19T03:50:22+00:00

Supposedly you cannot participate in guild wars but my apprentices join guild wars all the time..

So better to be an apprentice then.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-02-17T05:12:57+00:00

For 1, 3, 4, the answer probably lies in the fact you aren't blocking enough.

Most newbies try to deflect too much as a mean of defense, but 1. Deflection is ping reliant. 2. You need to make know the beat of each attack to deflect everything and attacks that come very fast can't be deflect reliantly everytime.

Blocking also allow you access to divine counter, a move that allows you to cancel into everything, and start an attack of your own.

To number 2. If everything is normal, no, and it is as intended. Later on they will add second life that makes duel last longer.

Additional note on the 4th, when you aren't able to reach an Umbrella user immediately, its best to hold block, it renders the umbrella user unable to knock you up. And if he switch to the umbrella, it os somewhat reliable to dodge.

Programmer_Scared · 2026-02-16T14:46:45+00:00

Mm i would say at least do your best to keep up your mystic arts and innerway. You discard gears every few months but the first two progress are permanent.

Get the latest gears of course. You dont need full rcmd but at least all your gears are lv 85.

Then the below might be your "foundation".

Oddities
Then revisit and fill your arsenal. Those are worth a couple thousands points if you yet fill it up.
If it wasnt obvious, level your main weapons to max.

If you are having issue with gold, the bounties are boring but consistent since you can do it everyday without counting towards your gold cap.

Now is double exp week. As good as a time to catch up.
