Yeah, some of these are pretty useless in WoM’s current state. However, a few of my characters support builds on the more exotic side. Giving you the examples.
My 4th file isn’t meant for pvp, and eventually will be a bard. It uses full agility
My 3rd file is weapons only, and obviously profits much more from Strength.
In short, these stats are almost all pointless. Yep. But however, if you’re doing things like I just showed they can be very useful.
I’m not complaining I’m just trying to throw out ideas as to why the player count is low. The difficulty of getting the current meta build isn’t hard. But the difficulty of getting rarer builds is super hard like a full powerful sunken set, so why is it so weak against an easier build to acquire.
Im not trolling, I just hope that the useless stats get a buff cause currently if the armor u farmed for has a certain enchantment (keen,swift,forceful,nimble,bursting,strong). They lose value in the marketplace. Why? cause they are not as useful as powerful or hard. Thats a 2/8 chance of getting a valued enchantment.
That’s what I’m saying dude, I built a MAX nimble set and could barely see the speed difference, like what’s the point in playing and farming to get what I would call “niche equipment” (max nimble or max casting speed or max knockback, etc. )if they don’t even have a big effect on gameplay the way
power and def do.
It’s low because there’s a lack of updates and there’s way more flaws than what you mentioned. Vetex recognized this.
I can agree, to a point. It’s just trade, or get lucky.
Actually, it is not that weak, also the most powerful Sunken set possible would be Hard sunken set. You get a lot of durability, extra magic size, and you can finish off with a power amulet. You get a lot of HP as I said and your damage is still viable in some way.
Going to add to that, Vetex recognized this and is doing something about it. Notice how it’s called the arcane odyssey forums now enoma, here’s a link with waaaay more info on why: Total Game Revamp Details
Are you talking about sunken armor? because bursting is just as good as powerful (for me). the bursting sunken chest plate i use and my other magic size stuff carries my build
Wdym, swapping casting speed amulet for a wizard hat is a major boost lmao, using a sunken Armour +sunken boots/helm give a really nice size boost that is noticeable
Jesus christ, im not saying it doesnt boost anything. Im just saying its as useful as def and mp. a lot of pvp fights take place in the air so the bigger size won’t help u if the target is in mid air, your mouse always has to be on thier body to even fire in thier direction. Truthfully i dont even see the value in sunken armor anymore, it boosts your magic size so your allowed to be more inaccurate but its better to just BE accurate and have a lot of mp.
I’ve been PvPing for 1,300+ hours and I’ve used a lot of sets just for testing. I can easily say that using a Casting Speed Amulet is more useful than not in a normal wizard set, and using a set with sunken chest + helm/leggings is much better than using wizard gear. Why tf you complaining saying it’s worse than wizard gear without even trying it lol
actually try them before complaining (though I will admit all the other stats are dogshit)
Sunken Chest/Helm/Leggings is good because it’s the best defense set in the game. Nobody uses sunken armour for the +20% (+28% with bursting) magic size - it’s used for the +40% (+65%) health.
The fact that it also gives the full effect of a different set is considered a cool bonus that helps it compete with the wizard set, which is giving +40% (+60%) damage.
An armour set that’s giving the full effects of two sets is massive. If the magic size was replaced with power or more defense, sunken armour would be easily the best equipment in the game. Nobody would even consider using anything else.
Magic size is so useless that even when sunken armour is getting it for free, the wizard set can still compete because +20% doesn’t really make that much of a difference. Blasts and beams are hardly affected at all, explosions benefit a little, but if I had the option I’d take +20% in a real stat any day.
Dull casting speed amulets (obviously enchanted with power or defense) can compete with non-amulet power/defense gear, though magic speed amulets are completely useless.
If you want your magic to be faster, you should just pick a faster magic and use more power items to make up for the lower base damage. You will always get strictly higher damage and speed from doing this.
Sand with a magic speed amulet is significantly slower, less damaging and smaller than wind with a wizard hat.
mmyes, the other stats are pretty useless unless you dedicate an entire build on it.
they DO work, but only to a certain extent wherein they serve little use, both for casual players and PvP sweats alike.
Agility
yeah, can’t really say much about this one, apart from it buffs your walk/run speed and T-jumping, but the stat buffs them by very little, limiting Agility for treasure runs, travelling, etc.
Casting Speed
used mainly to decrease the time needed to cast your Magic Circle
it’s good for spamming Q’s and such and decreases the likelihood of getting pummeled by your opponent with multi blasts
Magic Speed
buffs the magic projectile you shoot at your opponent
pretty useless ability in my opinion.
not versatile enough to improve your performance in both fronts: PvP and casual gameplay.
it just speeds up your projectile, and it currently sucks at doing so, given the state of the stats in WoM
Magic Size
really good ability if you are bad at aiming.
makes your spell AoE bigger, making it good at both gameplay fronts
Strength
increases weapon damage, as well as the destruction you deal to the environment
idk about this; my opinion on this stat is that it’s useless.
I barely use any weapons in the game, so I don’t see any use for it to me.
most of the stats with the exception of Power and Defense are currently useless, but it’ll be WAY better when AO comes out, adding all the more hype for it.
20% more size is a lot bigger and very much easier to aim with but yes my point is that sunken set is better than wizard and even if someone argues that it isn’t it is 100% viable and not useless
if we r talking pvp casting speed is good magic speed doesn’t increase it enough to notice and casting speed and magic size are not a good combo legit trash damage trash health and faster casting speed knockback doesnt work in pvp just use size for that, strength works in pvp cause weapon mains but weapons r trash rn so not really and agility isnt worth it for pvp so no
