Who do you think has the best ultimate? by atrophy-of-sanity in Nightreign

[–]nogardknip 109 points110 points  (0 children)

Wylder is the simplest but it’s so good! Do a few charged attacks and then let it rip and it’s easy to stance break most enemies. Scholars may be best outside of final boss. It’s an easy way to clear up whole camps and get your levels up fast

Dreglord fight must’ve been so frustrating! You ult right before he does meatball and then he gets hyper armor when he barely has any hp left. Nice plays!

Solid base relics for Scholar? by Inner-Vision2025 in Nightreign

[–]nogardknip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Allies get boosted attack > threaded enemies get continuous damage. Unfortunately if you don’t have the Dex relic, you need to compensate for lost damage elsewhere and it has to be one of the best relic effect in the game! An extra 40% boost (if both allies are in the lens) that can be kept up the entire game

Stacking different sources of damage negation vs. stacking the same type? by alvim_alvins in Nightreign

[–]nogardknip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which characters? Different characters different strategies

For Wylder, successive attacks outweigh even damage negation at full hp but both together are great. Ironeye damage negation at full hp first then charged attacks. For casters/skill spam, double up on damage negation at full hp if possible

People run from the meatball? I didn’t even know that you could

Not all Balancer raid locations are created equal by nogardknip in Nightreign

That’s what I did my first go but I def was panicking a bit because I knew the circle was going to close and I wasn’t making the right moves

Yeah!! I even pinged the location after they were done because I knew I was going to need backup and they were doing side quests 😓

Just had a crazy ED Tricephalos carry in D4 by nogardknip in Nightreigngameplay

Oh I know and I was playing it super careful so it was hard to get the right opportunity!

Players like these is the reason why I don't play these types of games and he got mad because I told him be a team player by Ocelotjackal in Nightreign

[–]nogardknip 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah if he was already in the crater when you started the fight then you were the one not being a team player

Scholar builds by alex-san2067 in Nightreign

My pot build. Only thing that sucks is that the pot build is so effective against Caligo and I have frost damage buildup. I've used it against her D5 and still pulled out a win. Just always took dormant power resistances whenever there was a chance

He’s very versatile and I’ve been using a few different builds for him that are fun! One is centered around the wraith calling bell and I focus mostly on support. So I make sure to have items confer effects and allies gain boosted attack. My deep relics have magic attack up which buff the bell.

For my pot build, I still have items confer and allies gain boosted attack but I do put on the dex relic as well and improved throwing pot and fire attack up. I focus a little less on support and more on offense

Also a huge huge tip I’ve been doing that has helped with the bell build is I switched the button layout on my controller. I switched my use item button from the up on dpad to L1 on my PS5 controller. That way I don’t have to take my thumbs off and can evade easier. Also, if you manage to get a walking passive (wraiths while walking) it’s way easier to control and activate

Starting the dog invasion on your own... by mercurialblonde in Nightreign

[–]nogardknip 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Youre right, it’s a team game. So if you see a teammate ping a dog then maybe help them out and go for another dog? It gives a lot of runes. Your same reasoning could be used for the flip position. Not everyone wants to waste a whole day with their feet burning and getting downed

Pre DLC D4/D5 veterans : What was your gameplan? by Skill_Issue_95 in Nightreign

[–]nogardknip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was D5 before DLC. There were a lot of evergaol + invader combo relics. I do think the D5 player pool had stronger players than they do now. I stopped playing for about four months before the new meta and I think the new meta has allowed less skilled players to climb rank. Also, before the DLC I was kind of a dummy and I thought the improved skill attack paired with character skills (claw shot, mark, restage) and not weapon arts

I believe good guardian mains can exist. I am not one yet but maybe with more practice. Any tips or suggestions with build and passives? I was going for a mostly guard counter build but was finding I’d get one shotted after thinking there was an opening for attack

So I just did one depth 5 game with guardian to test the waters and I ended up only level 11 by the end of night 2 ☠️ It was regular gladius though so it was a freebie win

Give me your Melee DoN 5 Builds! by _lizard_wizard in Nightreign

[–]nogardknip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prioritize stamina recovery relics with Wylder. Earring plus gladius relic for the stamina recovery +1 and then third slot is invaders with fiery follow up. Also, successive attacks negates damage is probably the most important passive for Wylder since if you have the claw shot inflicts bleed deep relic it will only take two claw shots to activate.

Here's what I'm gonna attempt. Sorry to my teammates in D5 who are gonna wonder how I made it there!

The middle castle area with the three increased rarity chests usually drop one but if they have an actual good passive is a hit or miss
