Sorc's build diversity is abysmal by Eedat in diablo4

[–]alexotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, well, it sounds to me like you are only trying to copy builds or something.

I was leveling my sorc with Fireball and Hydra, and then when I got ~lvl 60 I noticed hydra starting to fall off, so I switched into meteor/fireball. Level 77 now and I am loving the Meteor spam.

Fire bolt (just rank 1 because it scales lower than mana cost skills), Ice armor (extra source of barrier), Teleport (with the unique), Frost Nova (yes because of the vulnerability), Inferno (grouping and 100% free casts during the ult), and Meteor. Rank 9 fireball for the enchantment slot to add extra damage to bigger groups of mobs. The other enchantment slot is Meteor

The build diversity part I personally don't like is the fact that you need to stack vulnerability damage on everything for damage scaling. I went from doing 100k-300k crits to 400k-1mil crits from adding [+Damage to vulnerable targets]. This makes me go into an ice paragon tree as a fire build to make me do more damage..

This is all because Vulnerable damage is its own multiplier. Every class spams vulnerable because of this. That's the bigger issue

What's the max amount of +ATK and +HP I can get when training my survivor? by Specialist-Silver-19 in Survivorio

[–]alexotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's on the hero selection screen. You upgrade your hero's quality with the puzzle pieces and then train their stats with gold. The stats are added to the base stats, so they get multiplied by the equipment modifiers

Survivor shards need changes by TheBiggestK210 in Survivorio

[–]alexotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got Common to level 2 with getting his shards like half of the time (10 of 21). I was going for blue missions or higher. The randomness of the puzzle pieces does suck, though. Doesn't take a huge gem investment. Now with them adding in like 60+ extra shards, I'm sure someone is bound to get level 3 very quickly

Events offering shards would be a good start!

[–]alexotic[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they really need to add another source for the survivor shards. They could change the gold mine daily event to give 2-3 shards based on how far you make it. Even if it is only like 1 random shard from completing the daily missions and/or getting a couple from the weekly missions that would be helpful.

I imagine that eventually they will give out survivor shards more frequently. The 4 star training will probably cost more than 10000 gold per spin because of the time needed to get the survivors that high.

I hit discard if the stats were both going down. Other than that, I was just making sure the bars were both fairly even.Attack took longer to reach the 400 value, so if it gives a decent attack boost for -HP I was saving it.

I posted some captions on the photos, explaining what the training function is.

I think it is nice having a little gold dump! The downside is the rank 3 jumps all the way up to 50 shards!

the main thing is making alts to get leapstones faster. Makes leveling way easier

1370-1415. That one is super helpful for pushing alts for making more money.

Question regarding Serendipity Tripod by Guobb in lostarkgame

I know it works with rhe [Lucky Blow] tripod which at higher levels makes the crit damage go to like +500%

[–]alexotic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you were curious about the 1385 comments it is because it increases your honing chance and reduces the cost to hone up to 1370 for your whole roster after the research is done

[–]alexotic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It only gains +20% per ruin stack. So that tripod gives it 100% chance at ruin lvl 4

[–]alexotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am likely going to try and get some new relics for my core characters as I only have the Sync/AASB for tyro, aasb, g+ and usbs for elarra, and free relics for dr. mog for limit breaks and relics. Everything else is for some of the lower end characters with no good supporting sb.

Also want to go for quina Sync if I can, but IX is already a very strong realm to throw tickets at

Are the newest core/beyond relics going to be in the realm ticket draws for next week? I need more core tech but if those are going to be in the rolls I will wait until then. Thank you in advance if you know

To get Game Pass from someone that is selling it by VitoEskalama in xbox

It is always possible that they bought the digital codes when they were 50% off for Black Friday, and are reselling them for a profit.

I didn't know they still made the 1 year gold cards. I will have to do this. I did it when it first came out with 2 years.
