A skillful metal mage is probably one of the most deadly things ever :'( so much pain...so little charm heals..........    gm nerf plis


I thought about restatting some magic points into vitality, but currently my main way of earning ecs is grinding shrine mobs, so yeah. I'll reconsider that in the future when I get better equipment. Your combo is pretty much what I'm doing when 'assist attacking', except I use shackle instead of mark of weakness since I don't have the latter yet.

By the way, is it true that MoW bypasses SoG?

Yes because MoW is considered a "dot"(damage over time) but all the dmg is mushed into that single skill cast. So you'll do full damage to a Sog'ed targert with MoW.

p.s. if you happen to be near a mystic and ur fighting a La/AA person by all means sog and physical debuff said target. The mystic should thank you since absorb soul also deals full dmg through sog  :))

Wow, thanks for the tip  :normal-4: It completely missed me that absorb soul deals phys damage since elemental immune mobs aren't affected by it...  Gotta read a bit more about skills  :smiley:

I don't think elemental seal skill count total mag def u have just summed total mag def from gear including ornaments but not shards.
You misunderstood how skill works and wanted to get dmg from ur mag def.
Part of total mag def you have are buffs and mag stats you added but those elemental debuff ignores.

So you mean elemental seal disregards sharding? That would explain why sharding didn't improve damage after ES. I wish skill descriptions were more precise lol.

In that case this 'full metal build' would accept vit sharding, but it would have elemental instead of physical ornaments. It would make some sense if the resulting ep had enough hp to survive long enough against physical classes to pop plume shell and kill before it wore off. Wonder if that can be achieved w/o sacrificing magic points for vitality.

Let's say, the fight would begin with the ep using AD/sutra/ironguard to survive the first couple of hits, then plume shell for a chance to survive later on, then ep does whatever it can to make the opponent drop asap. If plume shell wears off/is close to wearing off, sleeps and stuns can be used to get away, maybe a combo of SoG and mark of weakness to finish...

It's going to take ages before I can test it out.  :sad: I'm so poor lol.
