Hey, I may have Figured out your mana problem. Synchronized Strike - Dark allies Is there a reason to have 2 additional shadows?? I mean I took it off and still get 3 umbral blades and isn't that the whole point of it? Now I can pop - Synchronized Strike and shift more often without worry about Mana. Please let me know if I am missing something.

@ljs444 4 ай бұрын

check this out I learn this Synchronized Strike Shadows can be released with Umbral blades. But here the trick If you always have Synchronized Strike on the Ground waiting. When you hit your Umbral blades - Synchronized Strike Shadows. go were ever you aim Releasing 3 Umbral blades. Not in the spot where you put the shadows with Synchronized Strike. It makes it so much easier to pull the mobs around the map lol

Correct me if im wrong but mobs have 75 resist pen at lvl 75+ This pen brings you down to 0 resist even if youre overcapped. However there is resistance shredding, which overcapping protects your from. So overcapping is worth it so youre only ever at zero and not negative.

Hi! I'm also making a bladestorm build.. but correct me if im wrong but you said we need melee damage and i dont see that shadowdaggers/bladestorm scales with melee but only phys/throw?

@glassmaker301 4 ай бұрын

The shadow dagger ailment scales off of melee, throwing, physical, dex and does not apply on hit effects. Blade storm scales off of physical, throwing, area and can apply oh hit effects. They are 2 sepereate instances of damage due the diffrenet applications. One is a continuation of a skill (B-storm) and the other is a status effect called ailment (S-dagger). Both are from the umbral blade skill and the damage from these effect do not dirrectly scale with Umbrals damage (in theory, I havnt done all of the testing due to them sharing scaling properties). Info was confirmed on last epoch tool

@Rouwen87 5 ай бұрын

Probably one of the better videos I've seen so far explaining the mechanics in depth, appreciate it! Been playing a very similar build but in softcore and I don't really mind the tanky approach to it, since it's not fun having to redo a dungeon or something in the first place by accidentally looking away on the other screen. Only wish you linked the calculator of the build as well so I don't need to replay a bunch of small segments in the video back and fourth, but algorithm is gonna algorithm and I understand that part. I tried testing myself if "shadow damage" is increasing the damage of shadow daggers spawned and applied by shadows, but that seems to be a bust, it only seem increases the shadow cascade damage.

bro i dont understand the reasoning behing switching umbral blades to cold damage while we benefit from physical damage already.Any insight thought behind it?

@Rouwen87 5 ай бұрын

From what I can tell from other videos is that umbral dagger is not where the damage comes from, it has a decently low base damage, so what people tend to do is take the chance to chill and freeze instead to provide a bit of defense towards the late game instead. Shadow daggers is still going to do the majority of the damage and you get a bonus slow to your spinning daggers so they stay in them longer and each hit from the blade storm also applies shadow daggers (only from one spinning dagger at a time though as the tooltip mentions).

@leoboy2685 5 ай бұрын

Umbral itself does negligible damage in comparison to shadow daggers, while it would do more damage the cold allows freeze which isn't massive but it provides a good benefit. As a whole it doesnt really matter because we aren't using umbral for damage

@KanonXO 5 ай бұрын

Umbral will eventually deal no damage and the value of freeze is big end game!

because allmost all builds use the passive skill "critical precision" to increase the critical strike chance per equipped dagger/sword/bow. So probably better lost some crit multiplier to got perma crit chance

You really don’t understand how much stronger falconer is. The fact they nerfed this build but put op ass dive bomb in the game is pretty disappointing. I don’t care about builds being op but I don’t like one good build gets fucked with when you put in a whole new subclass that wildly more op.

I played a few builds and got bored. The first run through is fun because it's all new but making other characters and doing it over is boring. They added shortcuts to get to endgame faster but it doesn't make it any better. The skills at first are fun but grow old fast once you discover their limitations and lack of further customization. Your doing the same thing over and over and over to what end? I hope v1.1 adds lots of new stuff and fixes some of the issues.

Elusive is a TERRIBLE node... Not only do you get all that useful dodge rating for only 1 second but the amount of times per mono/boss when you actually get to benefit from that dodge rating, even for that 1 second, is maybe 1-2 times at most, ESPECIALLY if you're running any kind of explosive trap build, then the Elusive node is quite literally useless.
