I just realized we’re basically getting Electron Magic early

Ash Magic + Spirit Imbue = red and teal color scheme with lightning and lingering clouds of burning air

MrYes · May 23, 2024, 4:59am

Shadow Magic + Blue Spirit Imbue = Death magic

Paladins (and presumably other vit builds) really are good, even right now. I soloed Maria first try this time (I couldn’t solo her at all on any other files of mine)

knight and juggernaut are going to be goated after this

Iris · May 23, 2024, 10:47am

knight and paladin*
juggernaut will probably be usable, but wouldn’t be that great since the spirit imbue can only benefit from 1 fs (ironleg)(ironleg is ugly)(I hate ironleg)

I wonder if we’ll get 2 spirit weapons this update, or how many we’ll get at all considering what others have said about there being one spirit weapon per sea
If one’s added with heat synergies on imbue then my conjurer may have to go byebye and get replaced with a knight
I might not even play AO again though … I’ll make a story check-in eventually

wouldn’t sailor also work?

Iris · May 23, 2024, 11:19am

yeah, but that’s only a 5% damage increase along with a stun (or whatever it is right now)
it’s still better than regular lightning, but not as good as knight or paladin
(but imbuing sailor into the spirit weapon would probably be pretty great though) (but not as great as glass paladin)

electricboi757 · May 23, 2024, 11:56am

it gets thermo as well, lightning has a 17.5% synergy with seared, and the imbue will give thermo an aoe buff which it really needs.

Iris · May 23, 2024, 11:57am

oh yeah
I forgot that thermo had it’s status changed

(hey balance team, nerf this right now)

Arrowsden · May 23, 2024, 4:47pm

cannon fist applies bleed so that’s a clear synergy as well

Iris · May 23, 2024, 4:54pm

it barely has any damage, and you can’t bleed ships

DubiousLittleTyp0 · May 23, 2024, 4:57pm

heavy exploding shells:

Arrowsden · May 23, 2024, 5:01pm

i have a juggernaut that deals almost 200 damage with power focus m1s
that’s going to go up to more like 250 with the vitality damage reduction removed and the lightning synergy from imbuing eagle patrimony

Iris · May 23, 2024, 5:05pm

fair enough

DubiousLittleTyp0 · May 23, 2024, 5:08pm

The oracle sweep is coming.

GlitchingEclipse · May 23, 2024, 5:36pm

Nerf what dawg it’s already F tier

Iris · May 23, 2024, 5:39pm

lower the speed by 0.05x at max heat
make the base DoT 2 ticks instead of 3
lower the damage by 0.025 (it’s too high right now)

GlitchingEclipse · May 23, 2024, 6:47pm

We making it to F- tier with these nerfs fr
