Ive seen people asking about how slayer works or how it makes a difference since Max HP champs have their damage capped. Slayer 6pc is self explanatory, any AoE ignores 30% DEF. The 9pc bonus copies the damage of the AoE and applies it again. This damage cannot crit, doesnt count as a turn, and it also cannot activate any effects the original skill may have. It DOES get reduced by DEF or other damage reduction passives and masteries. It literally sees what damage you do, and just does it again. (Keep in mind it wont be exactly the same number because the extra damage can be reduced via stats and skills) As for the damage not having any skill effects, its confusing to explain so heres the best example i can think of atm: If you A2 an enemy under a HP Burn debuff with Artak, it blows up 1 turn of burn. If the set bonus activates, that extra hit of damage WILL NOT activate the burn debuff. So if Marius activates the set, it will repeat the damage but it won't have the skill effects, meaning the extra damage from the set isn't limited to the %MaxHP cap. This is how some people are hitting like 2m per hit with him. Basically, the activated damage isn't capped and is ignoring 30% DEF.
Yep. Senna, my lovely little dwarf. I use her everywhere. But everywhere! In arena, in SD25, Dungeons, DT, TT. Add another guy with cont. heals and she is unstoppable! I tried pairing her with Fyna, but didn't go much into it. Will test that more for sure. BTW, exactly the same Arena team with Sena and Odin I m running as well :) Another set of champions I don't have but ninja and Lydia . My top dmg was 100mil and 10 trials on Brutal, I got butchered on NM. But I might come up with more this week. Tinking of dropping Lydia for Mithrala or adding some mitigation dmg Like Duchess or Pythion... This week would be for testing but with all thing going on it's crazy grind. Thank you for this content. And yeah, if you don.t mind posting your senna build as I currently have here in regen but full port could be better. btw, another Thor advantage is 50% decrease resistance!
One thing I hear everyone talk about is protection gear, and they would be right. One thing no one talks about is resistance, I don’t run any protection, you don’t need it if you have the stats. Great video! 👏
@@BoozorTV I don’t run high resist on all champs just my cleanser. Increase res and decrease accuracy is the cheat code. Seeing your nukers resist a boss is so sweet. Firrol FTW! But that trash dwarf Boragar is sneaky good here imo, check him out… no one is talking about him.
Wallmaster in 9 piece slayer is god tier for those who don't have marius. By far the best build for wallmaster and it's not even close. Also his gear doesn't have to be insane for him to do high damage.
Hmm How do you feel about Giath the Truthshield? Giath brings increase buff duration, Ally Protection and Reflect damage on all allies + Increase res and strengthen for herself. And if it works her passive has a 30% decrease C. Rate and DMG that can't be resisted. (I'm not sure how this interacts with bosses? but if it works it would reduce chimera to 0 crit chance). Feels bad leaving such a cool looking champ in the vault for eternity.
yea i thought about her. shes a dmg dealer but can't hit really hard. her buffs can be good to boost someone like wixwell and his shields - but not sure where else you would use her right now
Was just checking my vaulted champs... would yoshi the drunkard be decent for chimera progression? Looks like he can cover a lot of the trial requirements
Are Reflect Damage + Counter Attack buffers viable? Was thinking of getting Vergis and Skullcrusher built so they can buff the Duel target, if given all champions are on warmaster.
What is your take on decr atk? The only option in my team would be gnut A2 bur I built him in 6 merciless nuke build and putting acc will decr damage and it will make merciless less impactful as A2 will be on CD as well For completion the rest of the team I want to try for NM and UNM is (credits to final kempachi) Emic (reflex+merciless), Elva (9prot), Ramantu (reflex+impulse), Marius (9slayer)
@BoozorTV my gnut has 245 acc without going for it ahah once we have area bonuses willl eventually get to 325 and if it lines up well with marius A3, I can get to 480+ =)
Been tryin to get an answer to ghis question. Boozor does it matter what emxhp champs have for gear? Like marius in lethal or slayer. If dmg for these nukers is capped wouldnt it make sense for sets with extra turns or extra dmg like slayer or relentless or reflex, if u can crit cap and high crit dmg thresholds? I have a 6 star soul for sniktraak so hes goin in the squad hands down. Lydia and either dbl acrizia or, just acquired toshiro so will make a team around him.
capped per hit slayer 9pc applies extra dmg on aoe hits non max hp hits also benefit from ignore def gear for example since no cap on those, also helps if you miss your def down/weaken the best set is slayer set for marius - you can see from the comparison lethal vs slayer, massive boost
@@BoozorTV only his a3 is aoe. Maybe hell do better in an ig def build. He is raw dmg but alot of it. Just got him yesterday so waiting for cvc to build. Check his kit out man. His first form is insane.
Great rundown as always! Thanks Boozor! I'm just trying to find the best mix of trials completion and dmg. I don't understand why there is a 24 hour cooldown after clash ends. What's up with that!?
Ps finalkenpachi said that Plarium confirmed areau bonus will be introduced for chimera, no date yet though so save yoir medal peeps (i will prioritise: spd, ignore def, c dam, def and acc)
The way the power creep is going, instead of advancing, it feels like the distance between the strongest accounts and the rest just gets larger and larger.
I'm not - not by any means. But as I fall further from it the more I play, the more discouraging it feels. in more concrete terms, when there are only a fixed 7K players in G1+ tag-team, Ramantu is looking like he will be straight up unobtainable, unless a large portion of players just quit from the high end, or Plarium actually increases that number. Right now, it feels as though that door is closing quickly.
Have Mikage and pythion in decent 9 piece protection and lydia in decent 6 piece protection. Might be over the top. Also include Gnut and Ninja as my dps champs for my team.
the lack of slayer set accessories makes it insanely hard for F2P players to put a viable 6-piece slayer set on more than 1 of their champions on their account. They give accessories during the forge pass, but everything is 5 star rare unless you're buying the forge pass. F2P players are at a MASSIVE disadvantage with this set. No other set in the game has this drastic of a difference between a spender and non-spender. Not being able to forge accessories really only allows people to get useable slayer accessories thru spending on the forge pass. Its very frustrating
yes. ive gone for every piece of slayer gear avaliable to f2p, i only have 1 champion in slayer (arix for solo spider) but her gear is so bad and only 4pc set to make the build work. to be fair, ive never felt the need for slayer gear until now.
of course it helps dmg for team, but bc your max hp hits are capped. you can alleviate need for 9pc dmg by building more powerful max hp hitters so they cap without help
the text says 200k cap the explanation from plarium i got is even more confusing but yes youre right, there is dmg to be gotten with better stats beyond the small cap.
Please comment on the stupid daily advanced quest to use a chimera key. A lot of us work and don't have time to go manual a key. If they want to put this as a weekly quest, great but this really sucks as a daily quest. I might want to work on one of my champs and run the key later in the week, but then I miss out on energy, which adds up to a lot over time. Clarium needs to change both the Hydra and Chimera to a weekly quest
I don’t think the differences I. Rewards differ that much from top UNM chests and top hard chests. Only you might get 2 fragments instead of one and maybe better relics. I’m happy with the easy chests TBH
@ Oh absolutely. I would find it boring if I was doing max on brand new content right away. And I am sure I could probably do better if I had the time, and most of all Silver, to spend an entire day using the optimizer. But for now, I am happy with just what I have been able to do myself.
@@BoozorTV Drawing conclusion may be subjective but comparing numbers is a fact ! 149.15 mil / 9 trials -> 2.23 B points 156.12 mil / 4 trials -> 2.06 B points
@@BoozorTV For MOST PLAYERS getting 3.2B+ damage should be the goal imo. If you can achieve that with many trials : even better (no brainer) ! 🤯 Otherwise it can be quite tricky (for now) to build a team that gets a lot of trials and 1 key at same time. 🤷♂
@BoozorTV it discourages a lot of people as well. When average players are making 15 60's a year and might pull 6-10 legos (1, maybe 2 voids) per year this is basically ignored content for vast majority. You auto easy and normal and move on, once you get champ, you don't care, much like hydra.
you dont have to do everything in the game. if youre logging in and logging out after 1 hour every other day, you can't really expect to do all the high end content. expectations should be managed for ppl and they shouldn't b discouraged bc they can't complete something - it's not meant for everyone that play this game.
its so hard to create a top team without elva. i wish CC's stopped showing every team with elva like she was a free champion or something. if you replace her with someone like a pythion then the entire team changes cause you are missing the inc speed for example.
i put out the first video with her and it seems other subsequent videos just used variations of it. however the reality is, she brings a lot, and not easy to replace, so she will be used often. and you're correct you have to manage the buffs/debuffs to keep the team running well
Probably the best video I have seen so far for Chimera. Thanks for pointing out the fundamentals! :)
