try using ra akar armor for thorns converted to range damage + glassbead necklace + spine ring , polished golden spike ring + hydra tooth + galaxite chakram all maxed upgrade its so easy to fight every boss because when the soul activates it burst damage well its like a mid game range build but can compete for end game range build open for suggestions
Nah 90-99% of the dps is ranged. The video goes over how you can adjust it based on what you have, willing to get, and even skill level so that even casual players can use it
@@ajilitypoints It's a summoning build that is designed to enhance magic damage... It is ranged, but not a ranger build for physical ranged damage. You titled the video with how to do something but told everyone how to do an entirely different thing, ignoring what they were looking for. No one wants to look up a play style they like and be told to do a different one.
@@OmegaFoamy the summoning is to increase ranged attack speed. The minion damage is negligible and there is literally 0 magic damage with the shuriken. You can create a magic build with it but the synergy, ease of use, and roughly 90% of the damage against commander is from the shuriken (depending on the level of the book you use)
@@ajilitypoints Quite a late response but, in your video you repeat several times that minions do contribute to damage... anyway, if their damage is negligible investing 5 gear slots for 60% increased speed (the first 10% is free) seems like a huge waste. Like, you get 10% from the range passive and 10% from 1 free minion, going from 20% increased speed to 80% increased speed is 180/120=1.5 -> 50% more attack speed, that way too little of an increase to invest 5 gear slots on. Sorry, but bad build.
The Flintlock musket also has a 50% chance to drop when digging up a X spot at a specific location spawn that looks like a lush tree surrounded by a small ring of water, the X spot will be on the back left right behind the tree.
Hoping this is seen as positive feedback, You really know your stuff and present the info in a great way but it drags on a bit. You sound unconfident or feel like you're having to convince me about why its good. My dude, I trusted you the second I clicked on that thumbnail. Just give me those juicey build deets. PS. Thanks for the build, its super fun and slices through everything.
This is not a bad starter build (the end game one). But you can make much better ranged builds quite easily if you build for crit and min max. The stormbringer and one shot phantom spark/flintlock musket builds are way stronger. Thanks for the video though, not seen much content with this playstyle.
Wonderful guide! I've been having such a hard time trying to play mage I have the arcane monk set but i'm swapping to this immediately. Would you possibly go over what the ideal pet setup would be? I assume you run a bird but what traits should I be aiming for? Also does offhand/lantern bag matter? I have killed the bosses within the first wall and have killed the desert and bird boss so far thats about how far I am in the game. Also any suggestion on food? Sorry I am really new to this kind of game.
@@idah6773 for the food I'd suggest my other video going over money, buffs, and skills. For lantern, theres only a couple that do anything super useful and one of those is for minions. As for pet, if you want mana gain, there's a pet in the Passage biome. Which is pretty much end game territory. It's talent tree can have a mana gain for the player. Outside of that pet, the bird is still my favorite but only because of versatility. If the bird talents don't apply to your type of "class" or build, then simply go for a pet that deals some damage or helps deal with enemies with stuns and such.
@@ajilitypoints Thanks for the response. We haven't done the 3 titens yet + the other last ones but we went around and killed the rest except the worm. I accidentally entered the passage while exploring and found one of the silky eggs but I got a pretty awful rolled pet unfortunately. That is unfortunate that its the last area though and I found it early lol.
If you still wanne check out an mage build that has a reliabale mana regen go with a build that has a large mana pool, with high crit change, arcane staff and mana challing max out in your mage skill tree (second perk on the left). I use the scocerer amor for the mana with crit acessories. Saddly the other staffs seems to have a lil bit to much of a mana cost to fully recoup the mana but it still helps. I hope they add other reliabale ways to regen mana in the future.
It does have a 1 second use time which can definitely feel slow during fights... and even slower when you want to just take out regular enemies. But for bosses, I simply treat it like setup. Summon some before starting the boss fight, and during the fight you can alternate between summoning and attacking if you're trying to be efficient. For regular mobs, I still use the build but I only summon if there's more than a couple enemies just to shred them down fast. Same method too! Summon, attack, summon, etc
Yes, maybe I glossed over the final version of it in the video but my emphasis on using the ranger armor fully upgraded into end game is very viable and arguably the best ranged armor simply due to it's piercing effect. If you use piercing properly, you're essentially doubling your damage output with the ricochet shuriken.
I understand the idea but its so much worse than phantom spark with the ninja gear 🤣 Also food buffs are such a huge part of every build and there is no mention about that
I unfortunately wasn't as detailed as I should have been in my first ultimate build video. I've gotten better about stuff like mentioning food and showing off the skill tree as I made more videos though! So hopefully it's no ones holding it against me too harshly 😳
@@wever4873 it works by investing all your gear for 70% increased attack speed which stacks additively with the range passive, so around 63% more attack speed. With this gear he has like 0% increased range damage, replacing the +1 minion rings with the unpolished gold crystal rings he would trade 20% increased attack speed (which, since it's additive they give much less damage than 20%) for 60%ish increased phys damage, which again, since he has 50% from the passive and little more, ends up being 40% more damage. This all is not counting either the time spent summoning the minions, that is time not spent shooting, which cuts your dps time more the more minions you have. Going for thorns for added flat (which, with the shurikens ends up doubling damage since you can get 200 thorns and shurikens have around 150 so more than double), getting the free 1 minion and getting gear for crit is way, way more damage. I'm sorry but 60% increased attack speed is not worth almost all your gear slots (the first 10% is free)

it is literally a full on summoning build. Maybe change title it is insanely misleading

@@stoneycooper9758 huge Intel! I think I've even gotten one from that spot before now that I think about it
@@ajilitypoints what's funny is that I managed to have a second one drop from a caveling not very long after I commented this haha
bird earn exp when you attack enemies (only melee). So its even faster to lvl up rather than other pets, if your build melee ofc
@@cs2banana didn't know that! Not sure why birds no longer gain xp from ranged hits anymore
@@ajilitypoints it got fixed with the recent patch thankfully
Really interisting way to use minions. I'm personally using the meele build with Stormbringer, that's overpowered as hell
probably the best build at the moment
just stumbled upon your video man, you got a very easy voice to listen to ! I wish you well and your video helped me a lot!
@@flyingthor2650 thanks for the kind words! Planning a series soon!

You stayed in the same spot when demonstrating the bouncing throwing star...will it's trajectory change if you move around while firing?
thanks! these videos are great

@@jacedddd stormbringer is melee ironically
@@ajilitypoints lol yeah does not make much sense it being that, I guess they realised melee was kinda bad so decided to make it hit at range
Returning player since before pets was added.
A lot to learn!
@@Elit3Blaze lots of good stuff for you to return to!
this build is interesting and looks fun, I'll try it haha
Might want to EQ your voice a bit to get rid of the muddy lows/low-mid frequencies so your voice can come through a lot clearer. Great video btw
I'll try looking online and see if I can figure out a fix. Appreciate the tip!
Can you do melee/warrior build???
dont upgrade your summoning book, it cost more mana.
u just want the summons for the passive.
Isn't better the moth? Gives you more %dmg to ranged and have the same passive tree.

What about a ranger build using the Godsent King set?
it is worth to upgrade the summoning tome?
think i'll still use phantom spark, don't like my shit breaking halfway through fights
will you make one for melee please 😅
@@xpertbear44 it's in the works!
Is the ranger set better than the hunter set?
@@Wonback I personally think the ranger set just offers so much more than the hunter set.
Legends says that someone used melee in this game
melee is top build rn. it can kill any boss in 2 seconds flat.
All I see is Summoner focused on Ranged damage...
Wish they'd let us summon more than one minion at a time. They are a pass for me atm. But eh that's me

still playable after the patch ?
@@TW-eo3mc it's even better since the patch. Minion lifespan increased so less re-summoning overall & summoning is cheaper so less mana management.
Is there a end game range where i dont use minions
