Something I discovered after making the video, the "Max Duration" is actually not actually a Max Duration before the tower expires, but rather a cap on how much duration you can store on each one. This means you can keep shooting the towers and charging them, up to 40 second duration at a time. So the towers can stay up forever as long as you charge them before the 40 second duration runs out. It is literally Jayber in a jar... Also, you can use Mental Focus if you want to get the absolute most out of each turret's damage because of the above. This would be best if you are doing a stationary farm. Because of the magazine size mods, you can hold down lmb and build up 60 stacks then place your tower within 2 seconds. Reload and repeat until you have 3 towers then keep them going as long as you need. Same as above with Sharp Precision Shot.
My fav ult weapons to use are basically guns with a skill built in. Like Greg's, Thunder cage, and now king's guard lance and wave of light. Satisfying to use and visually impactful
using king's guard lance with my big succ lepic is so fun (3 totems and traction succ). exactly the buff i was waiting for when i tried it out when i first used it before the buffs..
I feel like Jayber can benefit from this gun too. He can cover an even larger area with the help of this by placing the pylons on spots his turret's not on. Also why not use the beam charging speed? Is it not worth for this weapon?
Extremely versatile gun that let you: - Contribute huge wave clear when you level up new characters. - Enable gun platforms like Enzo, Gley or even gun Hailey to solo dungeons faster.
I have only briefly tested, but the new Charge Amplification Mod seems to give about the same or even more DPS than the three crit mods combined freeing up two slots.
Base area of effect increases over 11x once the weapon is modded/maxed and the lance shot at.. that's going to be some coverage with 3 of those down. They might not hit hard, but with chill the CC potential will be vast.
Would be a must build if they change it so the towers aren’t removed on weapon swap. Also for the people saying this use useless because Bunny this is actually the BIS for bunny now for missions with set spawns because the turrets keep firing when you are running around.
Although I'm aiming for a maxed out and catalyzed lance, I very much appreciate that you're presenting a freshly unboxed one. I don't feel so far behind then ^^
if you use the Lethal Finish mod you can get almost 100% crit rate on the turrets attacks without using better insight or having a crit hit rate roll on the weapon.
I messed around with it. Very inconsistent and awkward to use from my personal experience. I found Mental focus to be more consistent if you really want to get the most damage but you have to mag dump then place towers. Both mods rely on conditions / cooldowns to proc so I'd only use them for a stationary farm where youre using the same 3 towers. Conductor is consistent and no gimmicks so ive found it just works better for farms where youre moving around.
I use King Lance with Ultimate Lepic so I can afk farming. I build Lepic with max cooldown, duration, and range so I can spam his vaccum as it sucks the enemies into 3 of my King Lance turrets. Never run out of mana thanks to the inversion buff, MP collector, and Max mp/mp recovery in battle components. Note, my vacuum duration and cooldown are both the same timer, so I can spam another vacuum right after it ended, but you need skill cooldown and duration on a reactor. Lastly, I use lepic red mod which have a chance of recover your mp right after using your skill so it go well with the build.
The devs team seems to be on the right track, we definitely need more aoe weapons, thanks. 👍 Edit: Exactly what I'm planning to use, chill enhancement+snowflake conductor to keep mobs frozen in the turrets range but I rolled a gold electric damage and decided to keep it, it'll shred the armor AND froze mobs in place. 😂
Mine is built out pretty high (EA and 4 catalysts). It’s decent on Hailey because of her massive flat crit chance increase. Feels very clunky though on console. Definitely don’t recommend unless you need to farm certain void fragments I guess. But it doesn’t touch Valby, viessa, bunny, and blair in mobbing with just weak version abilities
Like all the new patches the devs have been coming up with. Now if they could only find a way to make it easier to on us casuals to acquire these cool weapons. I been trying to get just one Enduring Legacy for over a week now. Over 20 Pyro kills just to get the nano tube. The Enduring Legacy is going to be yesterdays news before I even get one.
Pairing this weapon with jayber i imagine would be the best option, you could have a variety of turrets out from him and the weapon to close off an entire area
Well you can say this about a lot of Descendants. Just because the gun matches with his kit doesn't necessarily mean he's the best Descendant pairing with it. But it would definitely be fun, although managing 5 turrets and having to use his little pistol to charge 2 and the weapon to charge the other 3 sounds tedious.
For attribute roll, what about going for Status Effect Trigger rate instead of Chill atk? I was thinking the chill attack part can be obtained from module anyway, but we can't get status attack trigger rate from module (i think?).
You dont want the rounds on king guards lance go ahaead and max it out you dont use rounds at T4, best to get chill/electric, fire arm atk ,crit and crit dmg
You use rounds to place towers and you use rounds to charge up and maintain tower duration and you use range for also shooting enemies, mostly elites that tank a lot of the shots.
@MeuiYT I have never had issue sustaining using this weapon my understanding is the towers use ammo but at t4 they don't consume rounds. You'll need rounds only when reapplying which mobs would be dead before that when your perma frost kicks in. Having ammo mods isn't efficient better to stack on attack or offset the reload time with reload focus.
one thing you didnt mention is that before the update the lances would not do any damage if you were not actively shooting them, so you had to sit there shooting at the damn thing so that it would do less damage to the enemies near it 🤦
This is a staple for my sharen for hacking, this gun just clear everything after a successful hack and if you put ice, it perma slow the boss too making the solo run very safe.. My only problem now are those boss that have balls on 2nd phase, it's doable but still very annoying on solo
dont think it was mentioned at all, maybe could be used for bossing too. Looks fun for maybe a couple runs but guarantee you'll end up going back to bunny/valby/iceee. Unless you're not grinding.
Best mobbing weapon is ThunderCage, still cannot get close to it, maybe only for stationary Void mobs spawns, but still the skills of Viessa, Lepic, Bunny are better for this.
It still doesn’t feel viable at all. The time to kill is just too slow to be called best mobbing tool. With chill it’s at best the strongest cc tool in the game, but cc is pointless when the spawn rate of this game is so low, and so many things can easily one shot/spawn kill multiple mobs at once
Shoot the tankier enemies with your beam if the towers arent killing it fast enough. The beam itself from the gun does a solid amount of damage itself.
Nah, better to try it yourself. Honestly worth it, regardless if you like his build or not, the best gameplay is your own, and King's Lance is now worthy of the name.
Thundercage has some decent range sure, but you can have the lance up for 40secs and its super easy to give time back. With Thundercage you see big numbers, but you don't need much dps to kill mobs quickly. Try this out, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
@@6PinkGlamour9 40s is the cap you can store. You can keep them up infinitely if you want by shooting it with 6 shots every 30 to 40 seconds at max copies
"Best mobbing weapon" 😂 OMG these youtubers ... With bunny i kill all of them in one second and you say best mobbing weapon ?!?! There is nothing nearby bunny , i have 27 m range on my skill and i kill everything in one second ... cmooooon bro
Better ultimate bunny nothing else. You need just two descendants: bunny for farm and Haily for bosses. And it’s all- you got big profit. As alternative for bunny- it is ultimate feyna. But I think bunny 🐰 is better. All another’s descendants just only fun.

Same as above with Sharp Precision Shot.
Thank you best tfd creator . Credit where credits due
Also spray and pray lets you place pylons without the ammo consumption. But you do have to do it within the timer
@@MeuiYT is mental focus increases dmg of towers ? Or just the beam itself ?
@@pilkslayer Yes if you fire the beam and stack it then put the tower down before stacks expire
So the mental focus and sharp precision shot has the same effect for the tower on this gun? Which one is better?
Jayber got turned into a gun, poor dude can't catch a break, great buff we needed more mobbing weapons and KGL is an absolute beast now, gg video
why not use both jayber and this? extra damage xD
More like he got extra turrets so it's win for him lol 🤣
My fav ult weapons to use are basically guns with a skill built in. Like Greg's, Thunder cage, and now king's guard lance and wave of light. Satisfying to use and visually impactful
So happy that this gun got buffed, the gimmick is so fun and unique, definitely maxing this badboy.
using king's guard lance with my big succ lepic is so fun (3 totems and traction succ). exactly the buff i was waiting for when i tried it out when i first used it before the buffs..
That sounds fun. I’m gonna try that.
too much work. Can't out do the quick one shot grenade.
Thought this was a troll at first 😂. Didnt realize the weapons got buffed. This might be what brings me back. Thanks as usual Meui 🎉

Literally had the same idea when I got the weapon last night, the new crit mods are a nice indirect buff to guns as well apparently
Base area of effect increases over 11x once the weapon is modded/maxed and the lance shot at.. that's going to be some coverage with 3 of those down. They might not hit hard, but with chill the CC potential will be vast.
I like every single one of your videos. Why? Cuss you’re the goat & been coming in clutch since day 1 💫🤞🏽
I have been waiting for yours.. FINALLY!! 😅😂❤
Would be a must build if they change it so the towers aren’t removed on weapon swap.
Also for the people saying this use useless because Bunny this is actually the BIS for bunny now for missions with set spawns because the turrets keep firing when you are running around.

How would this weapon work out on an Enzo support build with the crit module? Would the turrets be affected if Enzo has the crit buff active on him?
Just gonna bookmark this for later. Love to look into it!
I have not been able to take this weapon off since the buffs. Its crazy with chill attack. It also does trivialize invasions lmao
Just in time for me to have finished my 5th copy of the KGL. I can't wait to try it out
This is gonna be amazing for farms like Vespers Void Shard etc!
MY PRAYER HAS BEEN ANSWERED
Quite a unique and interesting weapon tbh
Yep. Hope we get more unique weapons like this instead of "Shoot and get x buff with x amount of stacks"
Facts! I love quirky stuff like this, it also keeps me coming back to the game!
@@MeuiYT Exactly. This and Greg's fate are jsut amazing weapon concepts. I hope they continue to go down this path.
Alright I’ve been waiting for this build
This gun is so satisfying to use now. I haven't put it away except for bossing! Using it with Bunny or Valby makes mobs instantly disappear.
Yay thanks for the vids! Can't wait for u to do the executor
Should of edited the famous Grant Gustin meme for Jayber on the grave stone and the KGL over his face 😂😂😂
Didn't think id ever use this gun again after leveling it up lol

When moxsy was testing it out on his livestream, it seemed like the crit only procs off the first turret and thats it.
Pretty sure this is a bug and only applies to the first turret placed
I use King Lance with Ultimate Lepic so I can afk farming. I build Lepic with max cooldown, duration, and range so I can spam his vaccum as it sucks the enemies into 3 of my King Lance turrets. Never run out of mana thanks to the inversion buff, MP collector, and Max mp/mp recovery in battle components.

So glad this weapon got a buff too make it a good mobbing gun it’s such an aesthetically pleasing gun 😅

i honesty consider putting donuts in is the budget setup, cus energy activator is more scarce

Definitely don’t recommend unless you need to farm certain void fragments I guess. But it doesn’t touch Valby, viessa, bunny, and blair in mobbing with just weak version abilities
If only the turrets didn’t go away on weapon swap. It would of been a good support gun for colossus fights but RIP
Thoughts on lethal finish mod instead of snowflake?
Is there a blue beetle video planned?
does the Lethal Finish mod work well with KGL? does the crit chance affect the towers?
Like all the new patches the devs have been coming up with. Now if they could only find a way to make it easier to on us casuals to acquire these cool weapons. I been trying to get just one Enduring Legacy for over a week now. Over 20 Pyro kills just to get the nano tube. The Enduring Legacy is going to be yesterdays news before I even get one.
I got it with maxed ability already and the weapon is fun and powerful and i can do afk xp farming
you should try it with lethal finish. it looks buggy. turrets get flat crit chance not weapons
@@romanflak2490 its super inconsistent and weird. Would rather sps or mental focus if min maxing on a stationary type farm personally
Pairing this weapon with jayber i imagine would be the best option, you could have a variety of turrets out from him and the weapon to close off an entire area
Nah hailey would be the best option because she can get 100% crit on any weapon

But it would definitely be fun, although managing 5 turrets and having to use his little pistol to charge 2 and the weapon to charge the other 3 sounds tedious.
Hailey seems to be the “best” atm since her 3 gives the turners flat crit rate
Will you ever do a excava build?
Pray for Albion Calvary buff
@Meui does it attack boss invulnerability spheres?
For attribute roll, what about going for Status Effect Trigger rate instead of Chill atk? I was thinking the chill attack part can be obtained from module anyway, but we can't get status attack trigger rate from module (i think?).
@renseiryuu only increses from 5% to about 6.1% so not really worth imo
@@MeuiYT I see. Chill atk it is then XD
Just farmed the last 4 blueprints i needed to max this gun.
Now im stuck with the max 5 research limit.
It's only efficient to certain missions only. I would just stick with TC
@@Gamja1344 thats not true though. You can move the towers as much as you want and the range is massive at max copies
This is a build i never spected to see.
Update Gley build please!
Thanks for the vids Meui :)

Hello Meui are you dropping a Executor build for Gley? Ty 😊
They buffed the most dropped weapon

lmaoo rip jayber
Cool.
feel like it need another buff

It does, I tested it on stream yesterday. They have to be under Frostbite effect.
@@MeuiYT ok thanks . Ill try it
first
stationary targets are stationary.
Everyone just farm this badgun ❤
Expanded weapon charge maxed out is better
Or just use bunny
Bunny do everthing :D
@@yohimortel593almost bro. That’s where they messed up.
Ah yes because using Bunny definitely lets you level up your other Descendants with bad mobbing or do fragments that Bunny can't do.
Ah wow don’t build thunder cage just use bunny why didn’t I think of this
A prime example why she NEEDS to be nerfed
Would have been nice to see more actual gameplay of this "best mobbing" load out instead of just the lab..
You mean like the gameplay I have in the video at the end? Right after the lab section. With a labeled chapter.
@@MeuiYT the whole 20 seconds. yeah, Great showcase.
