Keep in mind, these were not fully optimized. This version is the lightning version from around the same time. Using this helmet will also make Askari Lightning 100% physical since its damage is derived solely from Stormcall Rakkis helmet doubles stormcall damage, but removes the entire lightning half, so it doesn't double total damage, it just makes phys do as much as the normal total. (don't pay attention to crap gameplay, was testing a couple things at once, so didnt speedrun it) This was done with 119k sheet damage on Stormcall. Path (Xis), numbers might be slightly inflated due to nerfs snce then, but you can get a visual idea. I always found storm call to be pretty garbage even with high gear, so I did my best to skimp on defenses slightly (low hp) and get more damage anywhere I could. Askari gains +2% total stormcall damage scaling per base level and +1% (from rough item swaps and checks) per slvl. if you want to beef up your askari, you need to focus on everything that would improve stormcall (lightning/phys/magic damage, and also skill level stacking. Ever since the runeword was removed and sigma came about, its been really underplayed and weak.Īskari is only scaled by stormcall damage and lightning pierce and skill level, nothing else. Stormzon used to be #1 meta back in ultimative because of a certain staff runeword that morphed into sorc and had max res and trinity nova procs. Mainly why im asking is because that lightning caster skills in the amazon tree are fun to use, but was it intentional for this askari move to be weaker for some balancing? I don't see why these skill are offered at all in the tree if both stormcall and askari are lackluster (damage wise) to use even with exceptional gear It does very little to bosses with (32k-35k) with proper pierce of course. Spear you run around and poke things so its slow of course if you like farming, and pounce feels clunky.ĭadplaysgames4 wrote:Is there some type of item out there that makes Askari Lightning shine a little bit more? I hit all the breakpoints and have 1000 spf /w +300% spd: Javazon has WDM conversion to fire which is ridiculous and low damage potential / aoe without many procs unless you want to corpse explode with fairie ring but if you want to corpse explode why play Amazon at all? Can play sorceress or assassin and they do it better (shatter the flesh / hades gate). The main advantage of the lightning tree is the defense you get from Asterism which makes you relatively tanky as (I'm sure you probably are already aware of since you are not a brand new player and have some experience under your belt). Perhaps there are other skills that could be used such as stormclash / supernova that would benefit the build. Askari lightning you have to recast many times versus fire pit which applies damage per second wherever the monster is standing (and is strong single target). Stormcall seems to do less damage and has smaller aoe than even bloodstorm. Thundercrack is okay but then you're running around as a melee and that's a sad thing to be doing when you want to play more as a caster. I say that as someone with a lvl 140 Bloodzon ( ) who tried the lightning tree and found it lackluster. The exception might be magic missles because you can really stack damage with that skill but sustain is subpar compared to bow (and balance doesn't give you much defense so you are essentially a glass cannon) unless you happen to find the SSU phoenix shield which gives you antimass or craft laek on as much gear as possible. There is nothing damagewise that shines on the zon other than bow (I have tried and tested all the trees extensively).
