I've been watching a ton of videos on builds. I've been stuck at 25k dps for months on both stam and mag. Your video is by far the most helpful and informative. You're the first user I followed. One question, I currently have IA jewelry and Juli, Is 3 piece IA and 5 Mechanical a good set to switch to? I'm still in need of both staves so I'm running an extra IA piece. Thanks again, great work.

Did you switch your button layout? It looked like you were sliding your index finger down both right trigger buttons. Is that how you’re able to light attack/animation cancel so quickly?
@NOVARIS
6 жыл бұрын
Joanna Perez I still use the default layout after trying other layouts and just preferred to use default. I use my right index finger for light attacks and slide that finger up for ultimates 😄 I find it easiest to do it that way but the key thing is rhythm and knowing roughly how far apart the trigger is pulled from other buttons. I think default may not be the best option technically but it’s more of a personal preference I think 🤔

Hey Nova, I just discovered your build videos, great explanations and well produced ! My one observation on this build, when using Mechanical Acuity do you still try to keep a high crit% since it adds 100% on proc ? I'm using the same skill setup but replaced Inner light on DoT bar for Mages Wrath. Lose 5+2% mag and ~10% crit but gain 2% SD plus the execute bonus. Some say Storm Atronarch is better than Meteor now since damage is scaled off mag pool and lasts a lot longer. I like that Stormy will follow the target and find a new one when 1st dies. Lastly, we really appreciate the insert video of your controller while doing rotation! You don't see that much even in weaving tutorials. It looks like you are tapping LA slightly before skills? I was taught to tap it just after the skill. Yours does look a lot faster and less skill cancellation.

I noticed that you do not take advantage of the extra resource returns granted through off balance. I find in my parses that if I do not heavy attack on off balance my dps is considerably lower. Is this bc it is difficult to heavy attack on off balance in the rotation? My build and rotation is virtually identical to this however use execute as it gives more dps without perfected staff

Nice vid. Quick question. I have seen recent builds where people prefer infused over nirnhoned on backbar. Is there a reason why infused is better for this particular patch or does it always perform better in your experience?
@NOVARIS
6 жыл бұрын
Christian Brehmer good question! It depends on the glyph to be honest. With the advent of morrowind traits were more effective when used with accommodating set ups. Nirnhoned is very strong in single target and Aoe however I feel that infused is better in terms of single target. If you use a beserker enchantment on back bar I think infused is better and this is because even in Aoe situations it is effective, because unlike other enchantments (where nirn may be better) the increased spell damage affects all targets in Aoe. Single target infused is better in most situations, Aoe wise nirn is better in most situations but not necessarily with a beserker enchant!

So your Frag, if you use 3 FP’s and get a drag proc do you use the proc then switch? Or do the FP afterwards?
@NOVARIS
6 жыл бұрын
Ross Holland that is fine, to barswap after the crystal fragment is ideal actually. Since each couple of force pulses (which proc set bonus) allows for a 8second gap between each pulse to still get the effect. If you barswap cancel a force pulse, at the same time the effect from set bonus would have procd then that effect is not counts sadly, so if the last skill on your bar is not force pulse that is actually a good thing even if you don’t get an even number of force pulses beforehand. Appologies if this explanation doesn’t make sense, it’s challenging to put into words.

Another effective alternative is willpower jewellery. Till you get a maelstrom staff you can use either a staff from trials or even a regular non set staff. Thanks for the comments, I hope these suggestions are useful!

For example, running lightning because support doesn’t have lightning wall is a net gain in dps for the group as a whole even if your individual result doesn’t reflect that. I think that you should definitely test around though, hopefully you can find use in these tests and others on KZitem! Let me know what you get 😄

Carl Townsend The easiest way to determine what is wrong is to compare build information and confirm that you have medicinal use passive in alchemy, Champion points into recovery, witchmothers food, vampirism, elemental drain, same race. I think if all of that is the same then the issue lies in the rotation. It could be that you are overusing expensive skills, not keeping elemental drain up 100% of the time or not doing a light attack between skills, each of these aspects of rotation not only matters to your sustain but crucially the damage you do as well

Carl Townsend Pop your first potion around 10-15 seconds before starting the parse. If you're on it with your rotation your next potion should be up right when you drop below 50% magicka. That offset should sustain you through the parse with only 1-2 heavy attacks
