Thanks CJ, I really appreciate the feedback! :) I've had a lot of requests for dimensional hole videos. I've been kind of stuck because Sample Text's videos on the subject are so good, and I feel like I need to add something new. But I think it's time to make this one a priority - it's by far the most requested video :p I'll give it some thought, maybe be able to have something next week!
OMG yes. It takes me like 4 hours to do a rune cleanup.. and that's considering my runes are fairly organized :p That's why the first rule in the video is WHEN to do it haha. I only do it every few months...
Thanks Nikolas, I really appreciate the comment! There's no better feedback I can get then what you said :). PS: I was literally supposed to be visiting Germany TODAY as part of a 2-week Europe trip. Of course my vacation was cancelled due to the virus, but I'm hoping that I'll be able to visit in October!
Thx!!! At least for me it was very clear to understand. The problem is that I'm lazy lol. Thanks again for the content. I will try to setup the rune optimizer. Take care.
Hahaha yeah cleanup is a lot of work, but it's worth it in the end. I only do it every few months because it's such a pain :p Glad you found it useful though!
188 slot & maximum 87.5% efficiency with 9 hits. buff to ophilia for every threat state active, when enemy hit her then she counter and guaranteed STUN except when they have immunity
Buff idea: Make s2 of wolyung get instant turn after use from awaken. Here's why: She's a good spd lead but then she sits there doing nothing. If u build her for 1st turn support u throw out the window most of the dmg from s3 or u give her daphnis runes but then u throw out the window s2 atk buff. Her base is fairly average at best with 101 so it's already not easy to take first turn. Then if u want to enjoy both s2 and s3 you need vio but thats extra inconsistent with 22% AND she's not first turn supporter anymore, then her lead becomes uneeded because at this point id prefer to use vanessa or seara. In the end, if you remmember seara pre-buff and seara now I think that would make wolyung a good monster but won't break her
Thanks Black Light, I appreciate it! I'm actually glad you didn't need it as much as I would be if you did hahaha - means you're in pretty good shape! :p
I think they should buff Sian (water joker) I think they should give him a passive that states ( after being kill has a chance of coming back and revive a team mate with immunity and invisibility for 1 turn) this would not just make people build him but he can be use as a troll arena defence or even a viable and not just be good for lushen
This is really creative, I like the idea. It turns him into sort of a Halphas-type monster but not as strong, which is the correct balance.Maybe an either-or on the passive? After being killed, revives one ally with 1-turn invincibility or (if all allies are alive) gives each ally that does not have full health 1-turn invincibility with a 33% chance.
Buff idea- Waiting forever for conrad buff, as cool as it would be to completely change his 3rd, the idea of him being a LIGHT death knight that kills and revives monsters suits this character perfectly. His 3 should obviously scale off something else. Maybe deal more damage the closer an enemy is to death or execute at hp thresholds (basically anything that he doesn’t have to pour stats into). The shield he grants is garbage, should be replaced with aoe revive/self-revive buff. I just like the idea of him controlling life and death and being the offensive/defensive support that his base stats and current set-up is kind of like. And though a 30% hp execute w/ revive is op, he still relies fully on his allies to get him there, and to carry after it lands. Idk, this must be annoying to read, his 1 and 2 are still really bad amd the 3rd completely useless outside pvp. Either way com2us unbalanced af
Heya Merne... so the giveaway was a few months ago :p With that said - I kind of like the idea of "death knights" having skills that control life and death. One thought that might be cool but a bit easier to implement - Conrad S3, if the enemy is at 25% health or less, automatically lands a killing blow and revives an ally. (I say 25% so it's not too OP compared with Mo Long). Definitely agreed Conrad needs a buff!
Geldnir: The passive skill "Eye of Pioneer" should be changed to: If an ally is attacked by an enemy, uses one of your knowledge to reflect 5% of the incoming dmg per ally. If you have 5 Knowledge, the allies hit by the enemy reflect 10% of the incoming dmg per ally. PS: maybe the percentages are a little bit to high, but the idea is to make him a better anti-cleave monster. I dont have hin, but he actually garbage in my opinion. Sry for my bad english btw :|
Antares: The rng menace himself. I chose this mainly just because of the abundance of rng of his passive instead of having a chance to randomly cut I think it should instead gain attack bar when the enemy moves instead, this would make him more predictable as they would be able to see his attack bar while still having the same feel and build with antares where he can still cut if the enemy procs too much.
I'm really torn on this idea. It would reduce RNG which I absolutely love (I hate RNG haha). But it does eliminate his primary use, which is as a Diana counter in RTA. That in turn then "buffs" Diana because the only remaining counter to her would be Xing Zhe, and he's less effective at stopping her. It also makes him more powerful than Amduat, an LD4 - because he'd have Amduat's same passive, but with better s1/s2. I'm thinking that in the spirit of your idea and balance, he could get a watered down variant of Tian Lang's passive: The effect of enemy and ally atk bar boosting skills is reduced by 15%, and your own attack bar boosts by 25% whenever an enemy or ally attack bar is increased or decreased (maximum 25% boost per turn). That would eliminate the RNG, still allow him to be a Diana counter but require the Diana users to know how to read attack bars, and prevent Diana from endlessly proccing. It would also turn him into a counter to Loren/Verde/etc.
Xennial Gaming :o Pog thanks xD (I like your change a bit better for Antares) Though I also thought what if he cut in after a certain number of enemy turns?
Thanks CLS! That's actually high on my list :p. I've tried a few times - one video come out great, and had a G3 finish, and I lost the stupid video file heh. I still have the other two video files. They didn't come out quite as well so I need to try to edit them, or record again :p But I do hope to have some arena video up in the next couple of weeks or sooner.
Can I use the optimizer without a pc effectively on mobile. I got on it one time on my phone and have no clue what I’m looking at, it also did not look anything like it did in the video.
amarna : need i say more? I think this monster should lose the cleanse on skill 3, it would still be a t the lnd nat 5 level, but it would be more balanced ( doing this would be a buff for all other monsters)
okey what do u think about this gueldnir buff : first make him not use stacks unless he is at max stacks just like odin second give him a vanessa-like passive where when an ally dies use all ur stacks to revive him with 20% hp for each stack i think that would make him usable for an ld5 that's currently useless
So I've fought Geldnir on ADs, and he's quite obnoxious. There are comps that make him viable right now. But "making him viable" is not the bar you look for with an LD Nat5 haha. I like where you're going with the resurrect idea, though I think he needs more. If we compare him to Vanessa, she has speed lead, def break, and additional attack. There's a few ways to go with this. But following your train of thought, what about this? Geldnir caps at 3 stacks (instead of 5), and gains 1 stack max per turn whenever he is buffed, or whenever an ally or enemy dies, and the passive becomes that when an ally dies, it is resurrected with 30% health and 50% attack bar at the cost of 1 stack. If an ally dies when Gelgnir has max stacks, the ally is resurrected at full health and gets a turn immediately, and all stacks are cleared. Either way, you've won an entry because I really like the idea of adding resurrection to Geldnir and agree he needs a buff! :p
@@XennialGamer well thnx and i agree that an ld5 needs to at least be viable regardless and not rely on an full comp to make him look okeyish then again testing would be required to know if it wouldn't be too op to make him resurect allies with full atb even tho it sounds judt fine to me
@@bigmanzaimi2076 Agreed 100% you always have to test :p It could wind up being OP, but I don't think so - Iunu and Beelzebub already do that (self-res, take a turn) and neither is all that viable in the current meta. Hwadam also prevents team deaths and he's much more viable than the others - this would be a slightly stepped up version of Hwadam basically.
Buff: Vero. Nowadays (with fran mostly) vero isn't that usefull anymore besides like your 5th jeanne counter in siege. s2: increase in stun chance to 100% passive: increase in healing from 3% to something like 6%
Heya Maven, thank you for the comment!:) Ace has a video on how to set it up, you can find it here: th-cam.com/video/mC0IfGJS6MM/w-d-xo.html. I have a few videos on how to use the optimizer, but definitely the most important one is here: th-cam.com/video/MYmWL4T4Rzs/w-d-xo.html Hope these help!
I can't make any promises, as I can't speak on behalf of Com2us. But I've done dozens of videos and streams on the optimizer, and I believe tens of thousands of players use it. Plus the developer, Xzandro, has discussed the optimizer with Com2Us reps. None of that guarantees anything. It's just the info I have - all I can say is I personally feel safe with it :)
Have to agree that would be OP. Xing Zhe is super strong already as a defense monsters and Diana counter. The problem is that he's SUPER stat hungry and a little RNG-based, so he becomes mostly an end-game monster because you cannot rune him properly before that. I speak from experience, he was my first nat5 and unusable for ages haha. I wouldn't mind seeing a tweak to him to make him more usable for early game players, but I'm not sure what that tweak would be. Perhaps reduce his base speed to around 100, but add 50% resistance to his passive. That would more clearly define his role to be used on defense, and make it easier for early-game players to rune him. I dunno...
Hello from France! I love what you do and how you explain things, keep going you've got a new subscriber :) By the way do you do account review for some viewers? It could be nice to do it for some mid-game player because a lot of people like me do not really know how to progress at this stage.
Heya Antoine, I actually had the opportunity to visit Paris last August - my first time to Europe. It was amazing, one of the best trips I've ever had, I had so much fun! Thank you for the comment and sub I appreciate it :) I've tried a couple of account reviews so far, but other than reviewing my own acct I don't think I've done well with them LOL. My challenge has been that it's easy to jump on and look at each monster and say "too slow" or "that's garbage", but it's not always accurate. Because while we all want every monster to have amazing runes, the reality is that we have a range of runes and have to make decisions about "this monster gets my best set" and "this one gets my worst set." Plus some monsters can be built many ways, based on the ways they are used, or comps they are used in. So getting a feeling for the "big picture" of an account can't be done on a quick review. With that said, I've got some ideas for more methods to test, and this is definitely something I'd like to do once I figure out a way to do it that's going to provide good, accurate advice :p
Xennial Gaming Of course, France is the best country of the world 😉. yeah I get what you mean, maybe the outcome of the review would be “ok you’ve got that and that, now you should emphasise on doing that stuff and you should put your best sets on these monsters so that you can progress”. But at least even if I don’t think to have one set at the same level of your worst set, I get the picture and I hope I will be able to progress anyways ! Keep going love it
@@antoinelefevre6894 I'm going to be streaming tomorrow night at 8pm global server time (the stream will be 2 hours before rush hour ends). I'll do the stream on TH-cam, and I might try a few account reviews at that time :) If you happen to be able to join!
Xennial Gaming Ok! Normally I have the notifications on so I should know when you go live, I don’t know if i could join but at least if you manage to put the live in TH-cam somewhere i could look at it later on ! I don’t know if you could see my account as well as I am in Europe server but I can be inspired by what you say to mid game players !
@@antoinelefevre6894 Ahh yeah my stream will be very inconvenient. It will start at 0500 hours in France for the rush hour, which is really early. But I will post the stream to the channel after it's done :) I actually did my first TH-cam stream today. It was by accident LOL, I was just testing the settings for tomorrow, and when I went live, some people came, so I decide do to do a stream. It was a lot of fun, and a lot more people were able to come by then on Twitch, so I'll probably be streaming more often on TH-cam now. Unfortunately because of the time difference, most of them will wind up starting between 2300 and 0500 hours for you - but maybe on weekends I will try to do an earlier stream for those on Europe server. BTW I'm pretty sure I can log into Europe server. I've never played on it, but I think I went past the tutorial, so I can switch to look at accts anyway :p
The best way is to use the Summers War Optimizer. For that, check out this video by Ace: th-cam.com/video/mC0IfGJS6MM/w-d-xo.html. If you don't want to go through all of that work, my very first video gives you a way to quickly estimate efficiency. It does involve doing some basic math :p If you're comfortable with the math aspect, check it out here: th-cam.com/video/reOt6DyjCLM/w-d-xo.html
Thanks J, I appreciate it! A great PVE ("player vs. everyone" as opposed to PVP which is "player vs. player") rune is one that has lots of offensive stats (cr/cd/atk) but limited speed or defensive stats (hp/def/res/etc) :)
Xennial Gaming thanks! Actually I think the E stands for environment (not everyone), but good to learn what stats are important to look for in pvp runes!
When you raid, you get grindstones and gems. Grindstones increase the stats of a rune - so if the rune has 8% atk, and you "grind" it with an atk% grindstone, you might add another 5%, bringing it to a total of 13%. Gemstones change the state of a rune, so if the rune has say 4 resistance, and you use a crit damage gemstone, you may change that resistance to crit damage. Gems and grinds (i.e. raiding) are the single biggest and most important step for moving through the game :) A lot of people feel like they can't raid if they can't do R5 but that's not true. I started off by doing R3 (raid level 3) for weeks. The gems and grinds I got from R3 were what allowed me to move up to R4 and R5. Once I got to R5, the power of my account more than tripled in a few months (though bear in mind I play a LOT, and most people play less, so the advancement may not be quite that quick if you are f2p).
Seara hitting every bomb, but only can activate her own ones and not the ones from other Units. Hero rune with 9 hits has around 72.85 % efficiency if i looked it up correctly. you got 188 slot 6 runes !
Ah man Id really like Abellio buffed but then again that means taranys would get a nerf but if Abellio was changed to hp based he could counter cleaves thatd be sick fr
Not commenting on most of the buff suggestions until I post winners, I don't want to be misleading hehe. And definitely not saying you won or did not, I truly won't decide until I see them all. But just wanted to say - this is a really interesting idea. Abellio is actually pretty strong, so when I read your first few words I was like "he doesn't need a buff." He got overlooked for a while, but he's been getting used a lot more lately in higher level RTA as a counter to certain teams. The thing is, he's primarily an RTA monster right now with limited use outside of RTA, so not all players get value out of him. The change to HP-scaling wouldn't be significant in terms of monster power if the formula adjustments kept his damage the same, but it does increase viability in other areas of the game :p Though it might piss off some Abellio owners who have to re-rune him hahaha.
@@XennialGamer yo mate what time do you stream on twitch? i actually remember hitting your ad while back them beast riders op, i recently discovered your channel and I they bang yea mate good luck keep doin what ya doin
@@sqwuak9883 Heya man, yeah it was pretty cool when I set that defense, people didn't know what to do with it. Hit like 52% defense rate a couple of times :p Though I've used it long enough now that once I'm in G2+ most players just rip or avoid it so the rates are doing down LOL. I've been streaming arena rush hour on Sunday nights, I haven't been real consistent with the other streams yet.
Bro... Shimitae needs a nerf not a buff hahaha. Actually maybe not a nerf, but yeah Shimitae is strong. However, I now know what kind of RTA team you use! ;)
Heya AC - after messing around with a few people's accounts at their request, I'm finding that's not really my niche, sorry man. Because I try to be fairly detailed with my guides, I've found that it's just super time consuming to learn a new account, and the content doesn't come out as good if I don't know it first.
@@XennialGamer oh my bad, I think I confused you a bit with my last statement. Yeah you got it. just a simple beginners account using swop like not so on the mid maxing highest efficiency kind of jam. Just a typical way of using swop for new players with no +15 on 135 and minimal grinds
@@acmartillano2434 It's an interesting idea. I'm going to add it to my list - I'm falling really far behind on the things I want to do haha. But this would actually work really well in sequence with a video I want to do within the next two weeks, which is a an R3 video. So many people ignore raid because they want to move straight to R5, and they don't realize how much R3 can help them get there :p About the time you're moving into R3 (which should be early game IMO) is also about the time you'll start to really benefit from SWOP. Perhaps not exactly - you might benefit from SWOP earlier - but yeah they work well together anyway hehe.
Hey I'm really glad that I help you come up a with an idea for your content it's the least thing I can do to thank you for your help. If you need an alt account for a vid just let me know I have a 72 day account that I grind. Have a nice day man! :)
Heya Luther, I cannot speak to the Summoners War terms of service. You have to log in with an emulator to get the .json file to use the optimizer, and technically playing with an emulator is a violation of the TOS. However, thousands - probably tens of thousands - of people still use the emulator, and are not getting banned. This includes many TH-camrs such as myself, and Com2Us is definitely aware of the TH-cam content. The choice to use SWOP is a personal decision and I can't make promises either way, but I can tell you this: emulators violate the C2U TOS because people can bot with them. So for myself, what I do is log in, get the .json file, and log out immediately. I never play from an emulator, only from my tablet (or occasionally my phone). That way, there can never be an accusation of botting, and it's clear I only logged in from the emulator to get my .json. With that said, if you decide to install the emulator, Aced It Gaming! has a great step-by-step tutorial: th-cam.com/video/mC0IfGJS6MM/w-d-xo.html
Xennial Gaming thanks because I’m always worried when it comes to sw related apps that aren’t directly made by com2us but I’m at the point where I’m 19 nat5 shy of all of them and in the same breath I’ve got like 40 6* maxed awoken and un runed so I would love to be able to see exactly what I can build and maximize the potential with units.
@@justanotherviewer3920 I have to be honest, I can barely imagine playing SW without the optimizer at this point. When I was early game it didn't seem to matter much. But as I progressed, it became more and more of an essential tool. It's definitely possible to do without SWOP (I did most of my RTA runing without it for example).. but I enjoy using SWOP so much more. It allows me to expend less energy and get better results, and feel like I've "accomplished" more when I re-rune, if that makes sense.
Nice idea Albion. Kind of becomes a nat4 version of Rica, which is a nicely balanced buff! I was torn between several answers, and decided to award a bonus fourth entry - you got one of the four, congratz! :)

188 slot & maximum 87.5% efficiency with 9 hits.
buff to ophilia for every threat state active, when enemy hit her then she counter and guaranteed STUN except when they have immunity
Change dark dragon (Grogen) needs a buff. Increase base speed to 100 and have skill one stun. Makes him viable.
Buff idea: Make s2 of wolyung get instant turn after use from awaken.
Here's why:
She's a good spd lead but then she sits there doing nothing. If u build her for 1st turn support u throw out the window most of the dmg from s3 or u give her daphnis runes but then u throw out the window s2 atk buff. Her base is fairly average at best with 101 so it's already not easy to take first turn.
Then if u want to enjoy both s2 and s3 you need vio but thats extra inconsistent with 22% AND she's not first turn supporter anymore, then her lead becomes uneeded because at this point id prefer to use vanessa or seara.
In the end, if you remmember seara pre-buff and seara now I think that would make wolyung a good monster but won't break her
As always , great video with a good way of explaining things, even though i don't need it i watch it

Thanks to your advice on what rune to get from the event now my bernard is 8 speed faster lol
Man that's awesome, I'm really glad to hear the rune rolled well!! :)
I think they should buff Sian (water joker) I think they should give him a passive that states ( after being kill has a chance of coming back and revive a team mate with immunity and invisibility for 1 turn) this would not just make people build him but he can be use as a troll arena defence or even a viable and not just be good for lushen
This is really creative, I like the idea. It turns him into sort of a Halphas-type monster but not as strong, which is the correct balance.Maybe an either-or on the passive? After being killed, revives one ally with 1-turn invincibility or (if all allies are alive) gives each ally that does not have full health 1-turn invincibility with a 33% chance.
@@XennialGamer that could be an even better idea. I love it
Buff idea- Waiting forever for conrad buff, as cool as it would be to completely change his 3rd, the idea of him being a LIGHT death knight that kills and revives monsters suits this character perfectly. His 3 should obviously scale off something else. Maybe deal more damage the closer an enemy is to death or execute at hp thresholds (basically anything that he doesn’t have to pour stats into). The shield he grants is garbage, should be replaced with aoe revive/self-revive buff. I just like the idea of him controlling life and death and being the offensive/defensive support that his base stats and current set-up is kind of like. And though a 30% hp execute w/ revive is op, he still relies fully on his allies to get him there, and to carry after it lands. Idk, this must be annoying to read, his 1 and 2 are still really bad amd the 3rd completely useless outside pvp. Either way com2us unbalanced af
Heya Merne... so the giveaway was a few months ago :p With that said - I kind of like the idea of "death knights" having skills that control life and death. One thought that might be cool but a bit easier to implement - Conrad S3, if the enemy is at 25% health or less, automatically lands a killing blow and revives an ally.
(I say 25% so it's not too OP compared with Mo Long). Definitely agreed Conrad needs a buff!
Geldnir: The passive skill "Eye of Pioneer" should be changed to: If an ally is attacked by an enemy, uses one of your knowledge to reflect 5% of the incoming dmg per ally. If you have 5 Knowledge, the allies hit by the enemy reflect 10% of the incoming dmg per ally.
PS: maybe the percentages are a little bit to high, but the idea is to make him a better anti-cleave monster. I dont have hin, but he actually garbage in my opinion.
Sry for my bad english btw :|
hello, sir. I liked your guide videos! keep up with this kind of content, sir. Thanks so much!
Thanks Indra I really appreciate that! :)
The inferno, they all need about 102 speed and more base def
Antares: The rng menace himself. I chose this mainly just because of the abundance of rng of his passive instead of having a chance to randomly cut I think it should instead gain attack bar when the enemy moves instead, this would make him more predictable as they would be able to see his attack bar while still having the same feel and build with antares where he can still cut if the enemy procs too much.
I'm really torn on this idea. It would reduce RNG which I absolutely love (I hate RNG haha). But it does eliminate his primary use, which is as a Diana counter in RTA. That in turn then "buffs" Diana because the only remaining counter to her would be Xing Zhe, and he's less effective at stopping her. It also makes him more powerful than Amduat, an LD4 - because he'd have Amduat's same passive, but with better s1/s2.
I'm thinking that in the spirit of your idea and balance, he could get a watered down variant of Tian Lang's passive:
The effect of enemy and ally atk bar boosting skills is reduced by 15%, and your own attack bar boosts by 25% whenever an enemy or ally attack bar is increased or decreased (maximum 25% boost per turn).
That would eliminate the RNG, still allow him to be a Diana counter but require the Diana users to know how to read attack bars, and prevent Diana from endlessly proccing. It would also turn him into a counter to Loren/Verde/etc.
Heya - after looking at the entries, even though I had a long alternative suggestion haha, I think your idea is deserving of an entry. Congratz! :)
Xennial Gaming :o Pog thanks xD (I like your change a bit better for Antares) Though I also thought what if he cut in after a certain number of enemy turns?
Would suck against atb reduction sadly
Good video as always. Can u make a video of arena rushing
Thanks CLS!
That's actually high on my list :p. I've tried a few times - one video come out great, and had a G3 finish, and I lost the stupid video file heh. I still have the other two video files. They didn't come out quite as well so I need to try to edit them, or record again :p But I do hope to have some arena video up in the next couple of weeks or sooner.
Buff idea: Buff Vero by adding a dmg reduction effect from all sorces i was thinking about 25/30% to maybe be a counter to the seara loren perna teams
Can I use the optimizer without a pc effectively on mobile. I got on it one time on my phone and have no clue what I’m looking at, it also did not look anything like it did in the video.
Heya, unfortunately you do need a PC to run the optimizer :/
You sir. just what i needed thnx!
Woot awesome to hear, you're very welcome! :)
amarna : need i say more?
I think this monster should lose the cleanse on skill 3, it would still be a t the lnd nat 5 level, but it would be more balanced ( doing this would be a buff for all other monsters)
okey what do u think about this gueldnir buff : first make him not use stacks unless he is at max stacks just like odin second give him a vanessa-like passive where when an ally dies use all ur stacks to revive him with 20% hp for each stack
i think that would make him usable for an ld5 that's currently useless
So I've fought Geldnir on ADs, and he's quite obnoxious. There are comps that make him viable right now. But "making him viable" is not the bar you look for with an LD Nat5 haha. I like where you're going with the resurrect idea, though I think he needs more. If we compare him to Vanessa, she has speed lead, def break, and additional attack.
There's a few ways to go with this. But following your train of thought, what about this? Geldnir caps at 3 stacks (instead of 5), and gains 1 stack max per turn whenever he is buffed, or whenever an ally or enemy dies, and the passive becomes that when an ally dies, it is resurrected with 30% health and 50% attack bar at the cost of 1 stack. If an ally dies when Gelgnir has max stacks, the ally is resurrected at full health and gets a turn immediately, and all stacks are cleared.
Either way, you've won an entry because I really like the idea of adding resurrection to Geldnir and agree he needs a buff! :p
@@XennialGamer well thnx and i agree that an ld5 needs to at least be viable regardless and not rely on an full comp to make him look okeyish
then again testing would be required to know if it wouldn't be too op to make him resurect allies with full atb even tho it sounds judt fine to me
@@bigmanzaimi2076 Agreed 100% you always have to test :p It could wind up being OP, but I don't think so - Iunu and Beelzebub already do that (self-res, take a turn) and neither is all that viable in the current meta. Hwadam also prevents team deaths and he's much more viable than the others - this would be a slightly stepped up version of Hwadam basically.
Ophilia gets a turn instantly after using cry of threat
What is that ranking of the monsters in your background? is that a summoners war app or your own?
Sorry, I'm not sure which monsters you mean?
Buff: Vero. Nowadays (with fran mostly) vero isn't that usefull anymore besides like your 5th jeanne counter in siege.
s2: increase in stun chance to 100%
passive: increase in healing from 3% to something like 6%
Buff idea = abello 3rd skill increases def for 3 turns.
i'd say that 9 hits are a bit less than 73% , you have 188 runes on the slot 6
Also I can’t get my JSON (guessing it’s because my My computer is hella outta date. Hopefully I can build one to get an upgrade soon.

Great video. Do you have video how to use rune optimzer?
how to setup and stuff?
Heya Maven, thank you for the comment!:) Ace has a video on how to set it up, you can find it here: th-cam.com/video/mC0IfGJS6MM/w-d-xo.html.
I have a few videos on how to use the optimizer, but definitely the most important one is here: th-cam.com/video/MYmWL4T4Rzs/w-d-xo.html
Hope these help!
May I check if rune optimiser is 100% legit and won't get banned?
I can't make any promises, as I can't speak on behalf of Com2us. But I've done dozens of videos and streams on the optimizer, and I believe tens of thousands of players use it. Plus the developer, Xzandro, has discussed the optimizer with Com2Us reps.
None of that guarantees anything. It's just the info I have - all I can say is I personally feel safe with it :)
Great content again, thanks :)
Thanks Fungsk! :)
9 hits has around 72.85 % efficiency, 188 slot 6 runes, buff wind monkey by adding aoe counter
That would be to op imo actually haha
Have to agree that would be OP. Xing Zhe is super strong already as a defense monsters and Diana counter. The problem is that he's SUPER stat hungry and a little RNG-based, so he becomes mostly an end-game monster because you cannot rune him properly before that. I speak from experience, he was my first nat5 and unusable for ages haha.
I wouldn't mind seeing a tweak to him to make him more usable for early game players, but I'm not sure what that tweak would be. Perhaps reduce his base speed to around 100, but add 50% resistance to his passive. That would more clearly define his role to be used on defense, and make it easier for early-game players to rune him. I dunno...
Hello from France! I love what you do and how you explain things, keep going you've got a new subscriber :)
By the way do you do account review for some viewers? It could be nice to do it for some mid-game player because a lot of people like me do not really know how to progress at this stage.
Heya Antoine, I actually had the opportunity to visit Paris last August - my first time to Europe. It was amazing, one of the best trips I've ever had, I had so much fun!
Thank you for the comment and sub I appreciate it :) I've tried a couple of account reviews so far, but other than reviewing my own acct I don't think I've done well with them LOL.
My challenge has been that it's easy to jump on and look at each monster and say "too slow" or "that's garbage", but it's not always accurate. Because while we all want every monster to have amazing runes, the reality is that we have a range of runes and have to make decisions about "this monster gets my best set" and "this one gets my worst set." Plus some monsters can be built many ways, based on the ways they are used, or comps they are used in. So getting a feeling for the "big picture" of an account can't be done on a quick review.
With that said, I've got some ideas for more methods to test, and this is definitely something I'd like to do once I figure out a way to do it that's going to provide good, accurate advice :p
Xennial Gaming Of course, France is the best country of the world 😉. yeah I get what you mean, maybe the outcome of the review would be “ok you’ve got that and that, now you should emphasise on doing that stuff and you should put your best sets on these monsters so that you can progress”. But at least even if I don’t think to have one set at the same level of your worst set, I get the picture and I hope I will be able to progress anyways ! Keep going love it

@@antoinelefevre6894 Ahh yeah my stream will be very inconvenient. It will start at 0500 hours in France for the rush hour, which is really early. But I will post the stream to the channel after it's done :)
I actually did my first TH-cam stream today. It was by accident LOL, I was just testing the settings for tomorrow, and when I went live, some people came, so I decide do to do a stream. It was a lot of fun, and a lot more people were able to come by then on Twitch, so I'll probably be streaming more often on TH-cam now. Unfortunately because of the time difference, most of them will wind up starting between 2300 and 0500 hours for you - but maybe on weekends I will try to do an earlier stream for those on Europe server.
BTW I'm pretty sure I can log into Europe server. I've never played on it, but I think I went past the tutorial, so I can switch to look at accts anyway :p
How do you check rune efficiency
The best way is to use the Summers War Optimizer. For that, check out this video by Ace: th-cam.com/video/mC0IfGJS6MM/w-d-xo.html.
If you don't want to go through all of that work, my very first video gives you a way to quickly estimate efficiency. It does involve doing some basic math :p If you're comfortable with the math aspect, check it out here: th-cam.com/video/reOt6DyjCLM/w-d-xo.html
Good stuff, thanks!
Thanks Warology!
Great content, keep it up! You mentioned a rune “was a great pve rune”, what did you mean by that?
Thanks J, I appreciate it! A great PVE ("player vs. everyone" as opposed to PVP which is "player vs. player") rune is one that has lots of offensive stats (cr/cd/atk) but limited speed or defensive stats (hp/def/res/etc) :)
Xennial Gaming thanks! Actually I think the E stands for environment (not everyone), but good to learn what stats are important to look for in pvp runes!
@@justinma800 Of course you're right, it's environment, my bad! :) Remind me not to respond to comments at 2:30am ROFL.
how do I set up the rune optimizer for sw? and is the computer or laptop
Heya Raheem, you can do it on either PC or Laptop :) Ace has a great video on it here: th-cam.com/video/mC0IfGJS6MM/w-d-xo.html
188 slot 6 runes, just short of 73 % for 9 hits
I would give oblivion on s3 at bael, it would be really funny in my opinion
That would actually make him really useful! I'm debating if he'd go from being useless to OP with that :p
What do you mean by grind rune?
When you raid, you get grindstones and gems. Grindstones increase the stats of a rune - so if the rune has 8% atk, and you "grind" it with an atk% grindstone, you might add another 5%, bringing it to a total of 13%. Gemstones change the state of a rune, so if the rune has say 4 resistance, and you use a crit damage gemstone, you may change that resistance to crit damage.
Gems and grinds (i.e. raiding) are the single biggest and most important step for moving through the game :) A lot of people feel like they can't raid if they can't do R5 but that's not true. I started off by doing R3 (raid level 3) for weeks. The gems and grinds I got from R3 were what allowed me to move up to R4 and R5. Once I got to R5, the power of my account more than tripled in a few months (though bear in mind I play a LOT, and most people play less, so the advancement may not be quite that quick if you are f2p).

Ah man Id really like Abellio buffed but then again that means taranys would get a nerf but if Abellio was changed to hp based he could counter cleaves thatd be sick fr
Not commenting on most of the buff suggestions until I post winners, I don't want to be misleading hehe. And definitely not saying you won or did not, I truly won't decide until I see them all.
But just wanted to say - this is a really interesting idea. Abellio is actually pretty strong, so when I read your first few words I was like "he doesn't need a buff." He got overlooked for a while, but he's been getting used a lot more lately in higher level RTA as a counter to certain teams.
The thing is, he's primarily an RTA monster right now with limited use outside of RTA, so not all players get value out of him. The change to HP-scaling wouldn't be significant in terms of monster power if the formula adjustments kept his damage the same, but it does increase viability in other areas of the game :p
Though it might piss off some Abellio owners who have to re-rune him hahaha.

Hey man do you do swop content on new accounts? I can lend you my alt account. Like a beginners guide kind of thing
Heya AC - after messing around with a few people's accounts at their request, I'm finding that's not really my niche, sorry man. Because I try to be fairly detailed with my guides, I've found that it's just super time consuming to learn a new account, and the content doesn't come out as good if I don't know it first.
Re-reading your comment. I'm wondering if I misunderstood what you meant. Did you mean a beginner's guide to Summoners War, or to SWOP?
@@XennialGamer oh my bad, I think I confused you a bit with my last statement. Yeah you got it. just a simple beginners account using swop like not so on the mid maxing highest efficiency kind of jam. Just a typical way of using swop for new players with no +15 on 135 and minimal grinds
@@acmartillano2434 It's an interesting idea. I'm going to add it to my list - I'm falling really far behind on the things I want to do haha.
But this would actually work really well in sequence with a video I want to do within the next two weeks, which is a an R3 video. So many people ignore raid because they want to move straight to R5, and they don't realize how much R3 can help them get there :p About the time you're moving into R3 (which should be early game IMO) is also about the time you'll start to really benefit from SWOP. Perhaps not exactly - you might benefit from SWOP earlier - but yeah they work well together anyway hehe.

@@XennialGamer Thank you.

Try this video: th-cam.com/video/2Nf--UbGLI8/w-d-xo.html
I'll be doing a SWOP Pro series soon as well with an updated version of this video :)
How do I find this app to use in conjunction with sw? Is it banable ?
Heya Luther, I cannot speak to the Summoners War terms of service. You have to log in with an emulator to get the .json file to use the optimizer, and technically playing with an emulator is a violation of the TOS. However, thousands - probably tens of thousands - of people still use the emulator, and are not getting banned. This includes many TH-camrs such as myself, and Com2Us is definitely aware of the TH-cam content.
The choice to use SWOP is a personal decision and I can't make promises either way, but I can tell you this: emulators violate the C2U TOS because people can bot with them. So for myself, what I do is log in, get the .json file, and log out immediately. I never play from an emulator, only from my tablet (or occasionally my phone). That way, there can never be an accusation of botting, and it's clear I only logged in from the emulator to get my .json.
With that said, if you decide to install the emulator, Aced It Gaming! has a great step-by-step tutorial: th-cam.com/video/mC0IfGJS6MM/w-d-xo.html
Xennial Gaming thanks because I’m always worried when it comes to sw related apps that aren’t directly made by com2us but I’m at the point where I’m 19 nat5 shy of all of them and in the same breath I’ve got like 40 6* maxed awoken and un runed so I would love to be able to see exactly what I can build and maximize the potential with units.
@@justanotherviewer3920 I have to be honest, I can barely imagine playing SW without the optimizer at this point. When I was early game it didn't seem to matter much. But as I progressed, it became more and more of an essential tool. It's definitely possible to do without SWOP (I did most of my RTA runing without it for example).. but I enjoy using SWOP so much more. It allows me to expend less energy and get better results, and feel like I've "accomplished" more when I re-rune, if that makes sense.
