How does Kingsguard handle reflect mobs? 100 life per endurance charge used doesn't seem like much since you need to discharge and do damage to lose the charge. i.e. each time u damage a reflect mob you only get 100 to 400 life back but as we all know, reflect does more damage to you than that unless you have very high resistances.

Yes it does. kingsguard, combined with the fact that i have 86% lightning/fire resists without flasks, and and 99% with them is more than enough in my opinion. i never have reflect issues, even if i forget to pop my flask. say that a discharge does 15 000 damage. couple that with a 15% reflect its 2250 damage. couple that with 86% resists thats 300 damage. couple that with fortify, its around 250 damage. And with flasks up, this number is basically 0, even with thornflesh inside a reflect map

wich one, spesifically?

Have you been able to do tests with the new mjölner?

Instead of getting extra charges as you mentioned, wouldn't it be better to stack more attack speed to increase the procs?

It's really not mate, just go for 2 Greens at Vorici's bench and it'll come around after a few pops. Sure it's not super easy to get, but getting the off colors is still very much on the easy side.

Stacking more attack speed is less effective than getting the charges.

The old mjolner has a 50% hit chance right? so the chance to get a proc before you reach your 4 charge cap is very high. Now the old mjolner only has a 30% hit chance. So its not unlikely that it will hit 4 times in a row without proccing, meaning that any hit you do after that is a wasted hit, since it does not add any more damage to your discharge. By raising the roof on that ceiling to say, 5 charges, the probability window for a proc is much greater, without lowering your maximum potential damage. with my tree, you need to spend 5 points to get those extra charges. i dont have the math infront of me right now, but no matter where you place those points, they will be less efficient than with the extra charges.

Scenario with 30% mjolner: you hit with your mjolner. a power charge is given. you do not roll a proc. You hit again, without proccing, but generating another charge. and a third time, same thing. now on the fourth swing, if this swing does not proc, you will be at max charges, and cannot create more (if 4 charges are your roof). there is a 24% chance that this will happen (meaning within 4 hits, you have a 76% chance to procc. i could show you the math but im lazy) . Whereas at 5 charges, the chance drops to 16% (meaning a 84% chance to proc). as a side note, at 6 charges, this drops down to 11%. (89% procc chance)

This means that by getting the one extra endurance and power charges, you have a net gain of 10.5% more damage, since less of your hits will go to waste. if you think that you can gain more than that by putting your 5 skill points elsewhere, then go for it!

for reference, hitting 4 times in a row with the old mjolner without proccing is only a 6% chance.

Wow, that got fairly complicated pretty fast... Sorry if this made no sense to you!

Edit: Short story: 4/4 max charges results in 24% charges "lost". 5/5 max charges results in 16% charges "lost". 6/6 max charges results in 11% of charges "lost"
"Lost" meaning you will try to generate them, but cant, due to your max charge cap
