Hey man, been watching your content for a bit now. The simple and quick info on everything you cover is great and I also gave you a sub, Good luck with the channel.
Gold Crystal Ring maxed out is strictly better than glass bead ring if you are ranged. Also the blue leather tome is better than the crystal meteor chunk for ranged
with the gold crystal ring and the blue leather tome you get about 200-300 more raw dmg per hit on average. But you lose about 12% crit hit chance and about 40% crit dmg. However when testing I found that it came out to be a wash. If you haven't eaten any perm HP food (and/or just find you die easily), or you're having trouble getting rarer items. Using the gold crystal ring and the blue leather tome would absolutely work equally as well for ranged. Personally I prefer to use melee for this build. The dagger is faster and does more overall damage. Ranged for this build is good, melee is OP.
i dont think you understood me. im not saying to put two gold crystal rings. for ranged the glass bead ring is always!! worse than the gold crystal ring. Also the blue leather tome is the best off hand if you want pure dmg for ranged, since you used crystal meteor chunk, it would be always better than it for ranged @@DakonsMadhouse
Which setup/gear do you recommend for a ranged build without food buffs? I prefer to use the Phantom Spark, because it cannot break. Also I am worried that the glass necklace and ring will kill me fast on hardmode. Do you have alternative suggestions?
question, for the off-hand wouldn't it be better to equip omoroths beak? considering it increases melee damage by ~37%, whilst the meteor chunk is only 27%
omoroth's beak is specific to melee dmg while meteor chunk is raw damage. With the way the damage calculator works, raw dmg is often weighted a little better. When I was testing I got higher numbers with Meteor than with Omoroth. However, if you're playing something like hardcore where the loss of armor can make it easier to die, then Omoroth's beak would be the better option. The difference in dmg between them isnt much.
it would yes. I wasn't very clear in my explanation but I was trying to get the build versatile so that you could use it for melee or ranged. And when it comes to ranged, the blue tome or the crystal chunk would work. For melee, the crystal chunk or omoroth's beak will also work. Omoroth's beak provides a bit more raw damage but the kill times didn't increase in a really noticeable way. maybe .25 seconds. It was mostly the different between 1-2 hits. Since the beak is easier to get, go for that if you dont have the chunk and/or you play solo.
that character has a couple hundred extra HP because of pre-nerf buff food. This is actually my last video using that character. all character build videos starting with my Max HP one, are using a character with HP numbers more in line with what characters are getting these days.
@@dasnerft96 ya, around patch 0.4 or so they made a change. There used to only be 2 perm HP foods; giant mushroom and amber larva. But they didn't have the (can only be eaten once) caveat. You could eat them multiple times. You could even cook amber larva with amber larva for a +100HP food and get free copies of it with the food perks. So if you went to multiple worlds you could get thousands of HP.
Ah yes....the crit build that literally everyone's being using..... Except me i guess, im still with my modified scarab armor + crit rings xD My current build is atlantean worm helm + scarab harness + scarab legs + Ra-Akar necklace + 2 polished golden spike rings + offhand: either dash feather for exploring or concealed blade for in more combat + morpha's bag + pearl lantern Idk abt the crit set in the video, but it's just doesn't have the base damage i like when in exploration. I like when the base dmg itself is at least 1250 and above, like my rune song can deal at least 1400 base dmg on its own Although i should probably preface by saying im not aiming for fast kill, but im aiming to get the highest crit dmg possible, with my highest crit dmg currently is 117k. Although i did hit 225k crit dmg but using the Ra-Akar orb, so im not counting that in.
eventually after waiting your build for so long, it is made perfecly
thanks for your hard work

Nice build, gonna try it myself!
You probably already know but the "CK Hud" mod can be helpful with testing builds since it shows your DPS.
I actually hadn't tried that mod out yet. But now I definitely will. Thanks for the tip!

@@DakonsMadhousethank you for the info!
wouldn't omoroth's beak be better for melee build?

thanks for the build, bt how the F do reach so much HP o.o

@@DakonsMadhouse ohhhh, so beforehand we could eat max hp increasing food multiple times?
