Nice. I got an Ironman with almost maxed mage but my melee gear is not the best.. whip/ fang and bandos. I ran some DPS calcs and it seems like the shadow is better in almost every room (not bloat). Even on Xarpus it is more DPS than the BP according to the calculations. Should I actually be using mage at TOB??
Keep in mind for your calcs: maiden and xarpus are almost always low or 0 defence in a 3+ scale. Blowpipe with void is basically scythe dps on near 0 defence. Shadow is amazing for nylo king, sotetseg, p2 and p3 verzik though
@@notolag7916 oh true I didn’t factor the defense reductions! But is full Masori better than Elite void? The calcs say full masori has better dps than void. Is there some damage % from void that the calculation isn’t factoring in?
@@jamess9890 masori is a lot more accurate, elite void has 2 more max hits. Wear masori for encounters with high defence. Wear elite void for encounters with low defence. Everywhere you range in tob is 0 defence, so always bring elite void to tob over masori.
Dude and you got mvp... With the occult nerf you think it's still viable? Surely it is i also notice you didnt even bring saturated heart in if you did and with the augury +4% dmg now it should be same. Also people always laugh at me when i bring it in lol.
This video was made pre-scythe buff. Shadow with magus heart was actually better than scythe during p2 until the scythe buff. It is still worth using shadow max mage and elite void blowpipe at tob but only if your melee gear is absolute dogshit. I would only recommend doing this if you’re a weird ironman with absolute max mage and no good melee gear.

@@notolag7916 bro I took your advice / information and went to TOB. Literally got a scythe first raid using the shadow.
@@jamess9890 I’ll be expecting my split w480 ardy agility ❤
Is there a way to attack every 5 ticks during p2
That’s what I’m doing here and that’s why shadow was more dps than scy on p2 until rancour
Oh okay, I couldn't tell, could you make a short vid of how to do it?
I'm looking to do a shadow rebuild but I still wanna tob lol@@notolag7916
