    I love that you went over DR interactions at the end. So many people think AP works as some function of raw AP, like "AP change times .5 = % damage difference", but I've said that's wrong for like 4 years now because it very obviously 'eats' or cancels out AP in the equation for damage calculations.
    It's why high DR classes start having roughly the same DR as people with ~305 bracket of AP, in the low 600s, and become nearly invincible relatively suddenly as they approach the break point of equal DR to the opponent's AP.

    • @BiceptimusPrime
      @BiceptimusPrime  ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Yep! Its really showed with the new loml crystals for pvp too, that DR builds really started reaching a point where the regular 305-309ap builds couldnt do enough anymore.
      Most people are still too focused on AP softcaps, so hopefully this can help people understand that AP is still extremely important, despite those caps.

    I've always felt that Godr was the better route to take, because like you said, small stat gains along the way. The cost doesn't matter in the end if you are progressing while going from base Godr to PEN.

    • @BiceptimusPrime
      @BiceptimusPrime  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yep. Its a bit like lets say accessories. Its less expensive to go from PEN Tuvala to PEN Cres, than it is to go from PEN Tuvala, to TET Cres, to then PEN Cres down the road, but people understand why its still the better route to take.

      I'm so confused as to what I should be doing now to progress because there's a lot of time consuming stuff that seem to give good rewards like the guaranteed PEN boss and accessory quest from Jetina, but since I quit waaaaay before those were a thing, I don't know if I should pick up there or push for something better like Blackstar/Godr

      @@arenkai boss gear is obselete because they give it away for free in season gear. So the next best item is BS and Godyr. Back then Kzaraka and Dande is good to have because they were cheaper and you can hit ap brackets. But since you get them free now people simply get a tet BS or tet Godr and continue to Caphras their regular boss gear. While they try to hit pen on tet bs and godr or you simply use it at tet because it's the best for pve. Even better than dande and kzarka. The problem is PA pushes you to almost soft cap point and then the progression becomes significantly slow with all these changes. So when people say they make 1b per hour, they're at the top grind spot. The game have become easier to get soft cap but you still can't do end game content. Reason why Ator shoes and Kabua artifact is super expensive because we're all waiting for the top 1 percent of player with 700 gs to technically feed the 99 percent of player the new items. It's become a trend. I hate it.

    There once was a PVP stat manifesto years ago (cant remember fro who or if it still exists) which basicly stated the same that 1DR "removes" 1AP. If i remember right, DR did hit some diminishing returns at some point (i think to remember around the 650DR range) but rly not sure IF thats still a thing.
    But ye, stats are quite the nice thing to play around with. Especially in RBF when people realize that 269AP is enough for most of the playerbase given the proper buffs and overall stats for example.

I am not lying, I'm serious. I use Succ Warrior to grind on those spots.

      There are multiple progression breakpoints that require a DUO:GodR(sometime TRI) to hit especially if you are not a supper active player and won't reach PEN:BS/Debo tapping quickly.
      Tapping on a back-up BS and selling the old GodR is still cheaper than tapping a GodR. Obviously, you can buy a PEN directly, but not everyone wants to do that, the casual I know want to tap once in a while for fun.

    I did atleast a 20 attempts on my tet BS and I couldnt get it over... in honsety I used about 40 to 50b silver already if were counting cron stone and valks etc. And I got no progress because getting pen would put me in 296 ap bracket which is a huge increase because Im at 287 trying to hit 290 so I can do Primal Giant. After a while... Godr Ayed... was the next best choice for silver because a tet godr ayed gives 6 ap compared to other pen acc except deboreka necklace. Godr Ayed gives the most AP for silver. Its just too good of ap increase for about 50b silver. Also the fact it takes less cron, you can slowly progress it since 3 ap is not a big increase anymore. You can pretty much leave it at tet godr if you want.

    Boss weapon still better than BS for the pvp if you look closely on the dammage bonus on human. But still, its rather valuable to stay on BS instead of PEN Boss beacause of the cost to C20 boss to see a difference between a PEN BS and a C20 Kzarka or dandelion. If you are worthy enough well you can have both.

    That‘s cool and all but you are kind of forgetting that getting to tet blackstar is just like hitting a pen and even tet blackstar costs 3 times as much as a pen kzarka. For me (with a tri blackstar) it is actually much better to go for a pen kzarka or offin next before i even get to tet blackstar, since it pushes me to 2 more ap brackets and will help me grind more efficiently to actually get the money to buy the tet blackstar next

    Second point. I actually got off cheaper getting my Godr-Ayed Awakening and OH to Pen, and I was able to get access to end-game zones to get more silver quickly.
    4 Clicks to raw tap BS MH Pen (not counting the 200+ clicks to get from pri to tet etc)

    12 Clicks Duo to Tri Awakening Godr
    6 Clicks Tri to Tet
    2 Clicks Tet to Pen Awakening Godr.

    If the word "PVE" was mentioned in the title, and he didnt say for 10min straight "boss weapons are not viable anymore", this video could be taked seriously. Boss weapons caphras 20 are BIS in PVP and also capped PVE, u gain 4 more species dmg (=pvp=human=demihuman=kamasylvian=animal/beasts) and 2 more accuracy than blackstars by running them, while being 60 Billion cheaper per piece, thats 180 Billion in total, that can be invested in accuracy accesories, evasion, dr, crystals, cups, lifeskill gear, capped nodewar gear, qol like good horses and a lot more. Not everyone likes to grind, and not every grinder likes endgame spots, some people also enjoys chilling on oneshottable spots/AP capped spots where having BS doesnt make ANY SINGLE difference, since they're capped and the only way to make more dmg over the cap is using c20 boss (species dmg) and some over cap items such as some accesories, crystals, artifact sets, and elixirs.
    Resume: if you dont do PVE at all, you only grind easy spots, you dont do new endgame spots (basically new region/dekhia), or grinding in general is less than 20% of your daily content, is 10x times better going kzarka/offin (only on some high accuracy classes, 3 more AP and 2 more species dmg than blackstar mainhand)/dandelion/kutum/nouver.
    END. Wasnt that hard talking about that in the video, but he does the same in his stream, "boss weapons dead items" "boss weapons relics of the past" "boss weapons meme" "boss weapons not viable" instead being objective on them, wich is blackstars are overrated for a lot of players he calls an "unimportant minority".

      Its not that bad, the Jetina is very cheap for weapons, and you get a TET Blackstar at lvl 61 now for free. You can rock with that for a while, but when you are ready to invest more into your weapons, just replace the Boss Weapon with a BS or Godr! =)

    Hey Biceptimus, You forgot another key difference between the C20 Kutum and pen BS Offhand, Kutum has 2 more accuracy over the pen blackstar (As well as 5 less monster ap and dr as you stated). Like you said- Kutum is actually much better if you're still gearing up since putting caphras into your Kutum allows you to still have AP progression. I just thought I would bring more context as to why Kutum has more value since with Tet blackstar and Godr offhand, you lose the benefits of C14+ from the Kutum until you have pen BS. Even at Tri/Tet godr, you don't gain these ap bonuses from the higher kutum caphras levels until (both) either Tet Blackstar or Tri/Tet Godr is Pen.
    Edit: The difference between Kutum and BS/Godr offhand is so incredibly small that Kutum is more often than not, for the still gearing player, the more efficient route.

      Well, the duo -> tet is the best overall value i'd say, but getting a tri if that means hitting an important bracket is ofc fine too. If you want to enhance, then do that, but if you want to progress then 100% buy

      No, thats what used to be viable to do (also what i recommend in my old gearing guide), but its no longer an option in the long run.

      You just keep it, and use it, untill it makes sense for you to switch to Blackstar/Godr. And when you make the switch, now you have a kzarka you can use for a boss alt or something similar!

      ​@@BiceptimusPrime I apologise in advance for the long reply. But i feel it's needed especially for players not even closing into end game.
      TLDR : Kzarka + Dande until 4/6 Pen end game accessories. Then tet godr make's sense. I'm making the comment because I don't want people to go around thinking "my first upgrade should be my MH, AW, OH.
      I don't think your video is entirely wrong and I don't mean to be critical. It's still a good video. Love your work. (definitely dropped a like) But to say it is obsolete is a bit of a stretch.
      You kinda just said what i said my dude. Assuming there is a "fallen god" weapon, it may be c10 kzarka -> new weapon. It's cheap. Which makes it worth hanging on to (speculation)
      The thing that you are missing imo is that this only realistically applies when you need to hit the "breakpoint" . I'm not 100% sure what this number is. (it's not the DR breakpoint) but from my "testing" on garmoth, the difference between dande+kzarka vs godr-aye/BS is practically nth (3%~9% max) until u reach the current end game spots. You would need practically full pen accessories (no, not debo necklace, just regular) before even thinking of tet godr-aye. Kzarka, dande, kutum are practically free with jetina and seasons... stick with it.
      Pri -> tri godr would practically do nth for your dmg vs dande+kzarka. You're still not gonna hit the "breakpoint". at best I give you 2x tet disto + pen tungrad (rings,belt) + pen ogre before u can even consider 2x TET godr passing the breakpoint. (i say tet, because cost wise, its a more logical upgrade vs pen disto, pen debo necklace)
      Yes, in the long run, c20 kzarka dande will not even remotely hit the breakpoint. u can buff yourself all u want, you're not. It is a 0 question basically useless at the very VERY top. we are talking about 70~200% dmg difference. But, until such time u Pen (end game) accessory, kzarka+dande is still your cheap, practically free weapon well into 309ap.
      You kinda show it.. sorta. But it was really very much downplayed how insignificant of an upgrade it is until u reach this whale gear levels of game.
