Fun little fact about autorevive too is that unlike actually dying, if you die with it active while playing as [spoiler] you dont instantly lose your form change and just come back with losing your progress!!
Improved block or just blocking overall is slept on. Though it can't block everything, It can still make many fights easier by circumventing annoying mechanics and hard to dodge moves.
Most people will instinctively dodge and there are a lot of skills in the endgame that you can't guard (or the guard breaks easily), but yes, guard skills are pretty good (especially for Charlotta and Vane).
Block doesnt animation cancel your ongoing move while dodge does, thus why dodge feels way more reactive in combat. I don't know how effective it can be to block right after dodging though, oftentimes I dodge too early and it puts me in a rough spot
with stout heart sigil and Steel nerve you get a total of 20% dmg reduction as most characters have a defensive masteries that give you 5% dmg reduction while you have Stout heart, War elemental gives you a straight up 20% dmg boost ignoring dmg cap, if you have your dmg cap maxed out, you will still deal 20% more dmg.
Stamina deserves an honorable mention. It actually gives a bigger ATK boost than Tyranny as long as you remain at high HP without the downside of getting it cut by 20%. I’ve found that Tyranny is more useful once you reach a certain point in the endgame (won’t say what for spoiler’s sake), but can kinda handicap you if you’re still progressing to that point because if you’re taking on bosses that match your power level, you will get 1-2 shot, so you need as much HP as you can get. Combine Stamina with Potion Hoarder, or healing CPU characters if you’re playing solo, and you won’t really need to worry about really low HP and you’ll have the max boost from it all the time. Again, this is probably better for progressing until you reach that point where you need to keep your HP under 45,000, at which point Tyranny is 1000% better.
@@spadetheghost but did you have 2x Tyranny like me ;) Ive never heard anoyone speak on using 2 of them on same character :D And then you add the crab one if you level it to max.
I have read from somewhere else where Stout Heart also has an unwritten property that gives 25% dmg reduction. You also get 5% dmg reduction from defense nodes while under the effect of Stout Heart. If you mix this with Steel Nerves, you can have up to 40 dmg reduction due to multiplicative stacking.
It's funny because I reached the end game and I started fiddling with my sigils just to min-max, I removed like 3~4 damage sigils and I still had reached the cap, so I started picking utility sigils instead and came to the same ones as him.
Drain is an incredible sigil in the late game giving immense sustain - I desperately need a higher ranked one the best I have is IV. Nimble Onslaught is also incredibly busted, I love it on Narmaya. It gives longer Invulnerability after a perfect dodge, speeds up SBA and reduces cooldowns all in 1 effect. Linked Together is also another extremely good sigil that should be on every single AI buddy.
Drain is worth it on its own when you have maxed out Supplelemental, because it counts as a separate damage. Really great for sustain mixing it with potion hoarder to survive for longer.
@@HatsukaRaigeki oh I wasn't sure about that, so supplemental also drains? That's pretty nasty. Too bad it can't trigger Roll the Dice, at least AFAIK.
@@Malacite Supplemental is considered a separate damage hence it has its own crit, can trigger drains, can trigger more link chains etc making it optimal to build everywhere. Not sure about Roll the dice. I will test this after.
Fight or flight is actually quite a good pick, if you already have improved dodge + perfect dodge enhanced sigils. With the right setup, the penalty from the sigil's -50% attack can be mitigated. I ran that usint captain, i can still easily reach dmg cap on 200%++ by using buffs and debuffs. While the perfect dodge status let me easily rush infront of bosses and go ham while others needs to stay away to dodge the bosses projectile. It is also useful for triggering invul state and run straight toward a downed player and ress them, ignoring all den lazers and etc.
the 50% attack penalty can be nullified with just level 30 tyranny ( 2 lvl 5 tyranny sigils and some if you have maxed awakening weapons) so yeah it can be ran very well with captain solely because captain has armor break as part of his kit to debuff and cap damage. said skill also come off cd fast due to captain's sigil. secondary nimble traits also helps a tonne in capitalizing on this sort of playstyle.
Just a sidenote, war elemental actually exeeds the damage cap so you can go another 20% over the damage cap with it which is why it is so good. But then again it does not exist for some of us sadly.
Looking for war elemental After hours farming curios , reached 70 and decided to decipher them , ofc no war elemental , I decided to collect the ones in the city ( there are 2 every time you enter the big city ) and to my surprise one of the 2 I collected in the city was the wanted war elemental , so I do highly recommend you picked the curios in the city every time you can
Not to worry! you're actually guaranteed to get a copy of it from a whitewing Chest in Seedhollow. If you don't have the key yet not to fret, it's automatically given to you upon unlocking Maniac difficulty so just keep progressing and you'll be good to go!
Im chasing suplmentary damage sigil... Currently 100 curios deep and ive gotten 2 war elementals, untouchable, berserker and another one that boosts damage.
@@Vertical8 hey I was trying to test something out with ur info so I started farming ur boss and I finally got my war elemental like 20 curios deep where before I had like 100 deep with no luck but before that I got like 5 supplemental damage and just wanted to let you know I been farming goblin warrior map
i hear that elemental war gets your damage over the damage cap cause the weaknes bonus is applied after your damage. Sadly cant be tested in the dummy cause it hace no weaknes even when elemental war, i shoud test it before spread missinformation, should not be that hard going solo and hiting an enemy a couple of times xP Good build btw! You really like auterevive uh? xD i mean, you are over 8 points of his cap xD
currently only rackam and lancelot have the capability of even using it effectively since they are the only ones who can hit rapidly enough for the rng of the sigil to have any sort of positve effect. But even then its just better to deal actual damage normally. if they removed the part where it deals 1 damage when the sigil fails to proc then it would be usable.
Start bumping up your ascension weapon and damage. The big boost I had was having the right sigils - minus war elemental :( and haven't upgraded them yet!, but got my main's weapon ascended and a few levels up! Makes a large dps boost making you actually hit that dps boost.
@@Vertical8only the ascension weapon(craft after beating story mode) and the weapon dropped in proud mode can be ascended. You will need to beat the purple boss with the thousand hands (forgot name) 3 times in extreme and later maniac with the character you want to ascend.
I'm assuming it has to do with the last weapons skill catastrophe. If you're under 45k hp, you get a huge attack and dmg cap boost. I'm hoping it works with like 44k hp cuz I like my high HP lol..still don't have the weapon for my main. So idk
For those who just listens to this guy without actually doing testing and stuff, war elemental doesnt let you hit damage cap faster, it actually increases your dmg even if you are damage capped by 20% :) I hope the next video you do more research and not just pump out videos for money.
@@RunicGG no it doesnt. exploiting an elemental weakness adds 20% damage and 20% damage cap. Meaning you are literally not closer to the cap. It raises the cap by the amount it boosts specifically so that its always worth it to exploit weaknesses. But as a result it will not help you reach the damage cap at all.
@@RunicGG elemental weakness is 20% extra dmg that is not affected by dmg cap. So its a 20% increase dmg regardless of capped or not. Think of it as just dmg increase. Even if you are fully capped it will still increase your dmg. If youre not dmg capped, then adding it will increase your dmg but wont hit your cap
I feel like 100% crit rate is too much. You could sit around 75%-85% and replace the crit rate sigils with more damage or utility for a more optimal build.
If your crit reaches damage cap, you don’t need more damage sigils. You just need to avoid missing crits. I’m telling you you don’t need stamina, attack charge booster or any of that other crap, just don’t miss crits and upgrade your weapon to max and you will always hit damage cap.
@@annedray2506 Oh nono I don’t use any of that stuff. I’m sitting at 88% crit without the crit sigils and I’m still hitting my cap damage. So instead of hitting 100% crit which is pointless for me I could replace that slot for a defensive sigil. Improved dodge or whatever I feel like. You get me?
100% crit chance in this game is better believe me cause the crit is actually 100% more dmg (double dmg) if you sit at 88% and fail one combofinisher you lose halve of the dmg.
Fun little fact about autorevive too is that unlike actually dying, if you die with it active while playing as [spoiler] you dont instantly lose your form change and just come back with losing your progress!!
That's awesome! I didn't know that!
Improved block or just blocking overall is slept on. Though it can't block everything, It can still make many fights easier by circumventing annoying mechanics and hard to dodge moves.
Playing Zeta it’s nice to just parry stuff instead of dodging definitely slept on
Most people will instinctively dodge and there are a lot of skills in the endgame that you can't guard (or the guard breaks easily), but yes, guard skills are pretty good (especially for Charlotta and Vane).
I also just learned that you can hold down guard before dodging so you block if you miss-time a dodge too early. Pretty useful mechanic
This I agree with, blocking is MASSIVELY undervalued!
Block doesnt animation cancel your ongoing move while dodge does, thus why dodge feels way more reactive in combat. I don't know how effective it can be to block right after dodging though, oftentimes I dodge too early and it puts me in a rough spot

Its from curios, character sigils are from transmarvels. @@ChuckFinelyForever
@@ChuckFinelyForeverfr.i have 70 curios still got garbage. I guess just keep repeating quit game till i got it
@@kissofdeath4777 I would settle for some decent V+ sigils but the only ones I get worth keeping are stamina ones and I don’t even use them
@@ChuckFinelyForever just keep rolling bro. Maybe u will get it
Overdrive Assassin or whatever it is is great. Since late game bosses spend most of their time in overdrive state.
Once you start having to farm proto Bahamut you will change your mind. It is too niche to take up a slot
I didn't realize the azurite's splendor skipped sigils to max, thought it was just one free level :o
