Thread: [Event 67] Crucible of Combat vs The Demon Sloth

I'ts what they still call me now

both those SSR weapons are looking rather nice...

pride/barrage isn't bad, but that assault/exceed is looking even better.

in fact, that combo can go hand-in-hand when you think about it....

2 weapons im in desperate need of for the tower event, and the demons dont look particularly scary.

except tower likely ends before this so you'd need to wait until fire tower shows up again (if it does)

All UE rewards are Pride/something, Assault/Exceed. It's the only source of Exceed weapons for F2P, really.

yeah, but some pride combos weren't good... there's quite a bit of hate on rush so the fire pride weapon is typically out, and regardless of your views on them, dark pride might be out cause pride/defender (even though it's really just small assault with a bonus with defender) and thunder pride honestly need multiple sources of stinger if you do want it (cause the closer you get to 100%, the better stinger gets). depends on the grid and the player to be honest...


even then, still should get those weapons anyway since SSR weapons you don't use make great skill leveling fodder... rewards are automatic anyway.

There's no such thing as a bad UE weapon. They have 15% Assault and a secondary effect, that's way better than anything else a F2P player can get their hands on. It'll only become a question once you have a full FLB Grid from Advents and stuff, and that's going to take quite the while.

Except that Assault/HP is probably the best thing you can get.

Enjoy your shitty event.

Wait, do I get you right ? You want to say that FLB Dark UE Axe (15% + some assault and 15% HP) is not good ? Really ?

According to JP wiki Stingers are rolled separetely, if I calculated it right (which I may not) avarage damage is the same as cumulative though (not including damage caps). So no, relative damage increase is lower the more Stinger you have.

In overall, unless you have some fat strong dual weapons I can't see a reason to pass on FLB UE weapon (aside from not enough materials to FLB/enhance), they are after all at least 15% assault (one percent short of large assault) and something.

The way I read it, Stinger S, Stinger M and Stinger L are rolled separately (also buffs separately). But multiple Stinger S - such as Gluttony Guns - would add up to a maximum of 100% proc chance. I mean, if you got 7 of them (assuming that the current theory on skill level scaling is correct).

Anyway. Often when you start getting closer to 100%, the more powerful something gets... but I don't think that applies to Crits. It makes them more reliable sure, but I don't think that matters here.

Wording on JP wiki suggests that every weapon is rolled separately. I have only one Gluttony Gun FLB for now, so I can't check it myself. Sorry.

That's how it is for reductions (damage cuts, atk/def debuffs).
For increases the more you get the less relative increase is.
As for Stinger example:
1. You have 50% chance to deal 120% damage, your average damage is 110%. Realtive increase is 10% damage.
2. You have 100% to deal 120% damage, obviously your average damage is 120%. Relative increase to point 1. is 120/110 - 1 ~ 9.1%.
In general same holds true for all increases (assault, defense, elemental attack).
