(3.0) Best PIERCE LA + BaRrage Guide for Atlas of World (With Video)
|
You recommend Pierce just because of Lioneye's Vision chest? Okay, now I'm just getting annoyed by the misinformation. Yeah I saw your "research video" where you saw someone at the top of the ladder was using this armor, and basically breathed heavily at it for a good few minutes.
Not. Necessary. Pierce affects Phase II of Lightning Arrow allowing you to "hit additional enemies" multiple times with each arrow, creating pseudo AOE. Also a More multiplier where Chain is a Less multiplier. Not that Tooltip means shit, but for those who live and die by it. That's the actual reason IMO to use Pierce over Chain. At least have actual game knowledge before you copy paste a top ladder player's setup and just use it. Instead of saying really arrogant shit like "I'm addicted to DPS," if you do claim to be the "Best Guide," I would at least expect some super basic mechanics explanation. Btw, nice tree changes. So much for being "too tanky" to not take Acro/Phase Acro. Still horribly inefficient to go to Scion the way you are, but I'm sure you're stuck on that. You'll see it at some point I'm sure. Shocking that the Decoy Totem magically appeared after your click bait Uber (Lab) video. Fake Temp League Elitists LUL Last edited by _Saranghaeyo_#5448 on Sep 14, 2016, 4:53:19 PM

" its called neversink loot filter, either that or eversink something like that. |

" Click bait uber lab? but i get that if you like the chain better then go ahead, im one shoting mobs at t13 with two person group, and chain has its own use and pierce has its own also. i like pierce because of lioneyes and drill neck. and the scion life is there because of my chest, its give me enough str for it. And yeah, this guide is to help new and mid players not veterans LA player like you. Like you have to admit that you have to start somewhere to master LA, this guide will help you get there, and after awhile you will start to discover your own tree and stuff. Its a guide for people who wants to use LA and its a great guide at that. I want to say now that it will kill Uber but i will try him tomorrow and record a video so we'll see there then. |

" Your tree as of 2 days ago had: Charisma Nodes for extra Herald No Acrobatics/Phase Acrobatics No Arrow Dancing or mention of it Pathing all over the place, has been cleaned up a bit now admittedly Not a single Frenzy Charge All this went away after I gave you shit for it, and rightfully so because that's garbage level advice for new players. For HC players you probably kill them if they don't have additional dodge on top of their defenses. If someone wanted to master Voltaxic LA, they could just go to Mathil's thread and they would probably get a better impression of the build there, especially with the veteran Voltaxic guys who post there. I get you want to generate hype for "your own build" and stuff but you're 3 patches way too late, and people have basically figured the build out. It's great that you are discovering the new content, but you're coming off like you're the first to do it and that's a little sad. To me this is less of a guide than a blog post about you finding out about Voltaxic for the first time imo. And yeah, the Uber Lab was a clickbait, when you say shit like "Uber Down" or "UBER SO ESAY" like you did in your thread, and show an Uber Lab run instead of Uber Atziri, especially where you do a one key run, that's honestly a joke. Best of luck against Uber Atziri though. Should clean up your mechanics anyways, the Normal run you posted that you said "was so easy" you literally had to chug double Ruby Flask with Kaom's and you still ate basically every flameblast she threw at you. I have no doubts you've improved your timing/mechanics since that video, but if you perform the way that you did in Normal, it'll be harder than you think. Damage wise even with 6-7K Life you're still at risk of taking a lot of damage, plus the final fight is about dodging the flameblasts while letting RNG decide whether you take a spear shot or not. Anyways, hopefully that makes sense a little bit. At the very least, you've copied enough elements from the people you've researched that at least this is okay. Flasks are still really bad though, but then again you're not going Pathfinder and still advocating for Deadeye, which is lol in this meta~ Fake Temp League Elitists LUL Last edited by _Saranghaeyo_#5448 on Sep 14, 2016, 10:05:39 PM

As another "Veteran La" player i must agree with Saranghaeyo_
tooltip dps mostly means shit, i had 120k la (~160fullbuffed) la archer with chain 2 leagues ago but it was shit cos it was dying to reflect (1 shooting myself due to absurdly high dps because it was phys bow fully converted to lightning) and now with voltaxic and "only 60k" my gameplay feels much smoother. i really dont like armor you use, it provides almost nothing in terms of survivability - armor only helps vs small hits (unless you can raise it to very high lvls) ur tree doesnt have much which buffs armor + acro cuts it by half. thats why going kintsugi//qotf would help you survive much more, and dps aint problem with voltaxic since its not that hard to get setup which oneshoots packs (thats key aspect of voltaxic - chaos damage which monsters have low resistance), thats why your armor is almost useless for smooth voltaxic build,sure it boosts your dps but at high tier maps surviving is problem, not dps. thats why reliable defense mechanic is needed also you use blood rage, but dont have any charges in tree, thats 12% MORE damage and 12% ias wasted, and as dps oriented person its strange you omit that, and you can link regular frenzy gem with coh + am. that way you can generate frenzy vs tough bossess + curse them with assassins mark at same time (my setup is frenzy + coh + am + hot) as for arrow dancing im not quite sure if its worth taking, but im raider with avatar of onslaught + qotf + jade = 30k+ eva + dodge so im already almost never hit |

" i see what you guys are saying, but for now i like the set up i have, t13 seriously feels like t5, i will probably start a playlist with red maps for people to see. but again thank you both for the comments, i will keep that in mind but for now this is what im going with and will make it work in the end of the league, for me its mostly on how to make this build work than just drop pierce all at once. i really wanted to focus the build on the lioneyes chest. so we'll just see how it goes, im trying to reach lvl 100 this league. so just grinding like crazy. |

Are you going to update your leveling trees in light of these new changes?
|

" What new changes? the thing they are talking about is pierce over chain, and this build is focus on 100% pierce and drillneck, there's really no change in leveling it will still be the same, the only thing you need to change is to find a chest that has more evasion for boss fights, but for map clearing, lioneyes is still the best choice. That one guys am sure never even played pierce build and have not tried how easy higher Tier maps are in, i will start to put a RED TIER video map section just so people can see the play style and its clearing speed and its defensive feel while playing high end maps. Anyways, the build they are talking about is a chain lightning arrow build which is completely different from a PIERCE LA build, its almost the same tree but the mechanics are different. For example, with chain, you wont get a 7 link LA. For chain, people need to get the enchantment , but pierce would benefit more on getting the enchantment . and if you watch my video two weeks before the league, i have decided to build a pierce LA, not a chain. Which people seem to not know. |
