Thanks i plan on making another video specifically about just about schools of natures as i did a terrible job explaining it here haha. I might even include better prepared examples and rank the different schools on how well they scale😁
Great video ! I’ve been playing for years in and off and trying to explain this season to my friends for the first time has been like pulling my own teeth out. Keep it up!
Some rly great info, but it would also help to clarify diff between spells and abilities as it is quite important and rly hard to tell. A short explanation would help
Its on the ascension database. If you want to, you can join my discord and check the channel i have in there for "usefull links" you will be able to find the page there
Its alright, i want to remake it in the future for sure, i missed quite a few things, and my production quality has definitely gone up. So in future (maybe season 10) i can do another one
Okay this was super helpful. I have been struggling to just play around and create a fun build that also does good damage. Been playing around with the Mystic Enchants and talents. I'm doing Wind Rager, but kinda ... I guess making my own version? I don't know. I have only done like a Mythic regular, or maybe a +1 at this point... and I still just do horrible damage. Maybe I'll get it.
Could you reccomend a good 2h paladin or deathknight build? Like a DOT deathknight build or just straight ability damage Retribution Paladin. Please and thank you m'lord, liked and subscribed!
I don't have a skills card tab on my window, have I missed something here? Is there something you need to do to unlock that tab? I have a hero architect tab.
Mainly draft pick. Making a build on free pick is.... free, you can pick whatever you want and change it, so theres not much of a point in making a guide for that
How is the crit chance of a chaos spell determined? Does it roll seperately the highest one or use the crit chance for the school with the highest modifier?
Chaos is obviously made up of all the schools of magic, so it can be tricky. But crit is rolled based on the highest crit % you have. So if you have bonus 12% fire crit from critical mass it would take that into account. Say you have: 20% crit 32% fire crit Then it would roll for a crit on the 32% fire
@@Sneptics_Official Aight so it could first roll of 30% frost dmg modifier and then 32% fire crit for instance if frost crit lower than fire. In the end 30% buffed fire damage with a 32% crit chance?
In theory yes, thats how it would work. I havent personally tested it, but it could be done with a low crit% baseline and then stacking 12% fire crit then testing crit chance over a long duration on a dummy But its hard to know for sure as i cant check how the game is coded behind the scenes, especially considering ascension has custom rules for stats and such
Love the vids. Is there a good resource for how ascension pvp differentiates from original wrath pvp? Im mostly curious about abilities that have broken / incorrectly applied pvp modifiers. I just think its silly that an instant cast abilitt can do 3k damage from 30 yards away
I believe most things are custom considering pvp power and main stat scalings are custom as well. But if theres an interest i can make a video on some abilities that seems to have a broken scaling at different levels etc
From what I've seen and experienced of the pvp it is heavily unbalanced and favors one shot builds. Ive had several times when I've been hit with around 6-7 different attacks from one player in the span of a global cd. 100-0 in an instant. I say this not to bash, just sharing my experiences I've had. The server is quite fun, but it has problems when it comes to pvp
@@Odinsson2011 yea thats pretty true. Some dot builds can work (especially in arena when humping pillar), but a lot of times the builds revolve around dumb ability scaling or oneshot gimmicks
@@Sneptics_Officialnks for your honesty. Others often times when such things are mentioned simply deny it and follow up with "git gud". It's not a git gud issue, it's a get geared and stack enchants issue lol 😂. Can't do anything when you just get deleted before you have a chance to do anything. Good hunting to you
Just feed back: Either just say "Increased Nature resistance" then you can take the racial, or stick to "Nature Resistance Aura" and actually show Aspect of the Wilds. Calling it "natures" instead of schools (which is also in the chart you show) is confusing with the Nature school.
@@Couchyrick because i speak in very broad terms in the video it is indeed still accurate. Most meta builds are made by using abilities with high base scaling, or abilities with lots of talents to scale it. Or preferably both. If that didnt answer your question, feel free to be more specific, and ill get back to you😉
Season 9 is straight up worst season there was of Asuncion on terms of builds. Just to place an example I played 8 times as prestige and 8 times tryed to make hunter build possible and out of 8 times not once I got build that was playable. You constantly get spells that make no sense for your build and they told there are multiple systems of bad protection.i enjoy pvp and in season 9 it's dead at least it was dead for me since you relay on way to much rng to get 1 spell out of 1500 new spells. Out of 1500 new spells maybe 100 are viable. Let's say hunter example since I experienced it spells like: auto shoot,arcane shoot,steady shoot,multi shoot,scorpid Sting,aspect of hawk, some of them they are all core hunter abilities and they are all useless. In high lvls or close to 60 while still living you get around 3k HP and all shots above are dealing 40-70 dmg per shot. You are basically better straight up taking melee weapons and basic attacking for 100-120 dmg per swing. They made build revolve around 1 spell that you need to be lucky to roll out of 1500. Not fun. I'm tired of typing this on phone so I'm gonna cut it here . My point worst season there was for Asuncion wow
hmm i totally understand your concern, and while some classes are more popular than others you happened to pick the single worst class in the game atm. I would look up build guides on youtube for advice, or check my discord or velvet's list of viable builds and play one of those. it wont save you from the RNG aspect tho, that still remains. Alternatively you can try out Conquest of Azeroth. It has 0 RNG, and pvp is actually decently balanced (And fun, in my opinion). Thanks for sharing your experiences/opinions btw, it was quite a long message too, i appreciate that😊👍
@@Sneptics_Official I was thinking that to maybe hunter build I made caster idea was let's go frost got frostbolt lvl 15 my frostbolt is doing 8 dmg... Ppl have 800 HP my frostbolt deals 8 HP haha speechless
@@branslavzvonar1086 ok, so you picked another class that sucks lol. Its almost like your going down the list of horrible builds that dont do well. Its starting to become impressive haha. But yea as i said, i would recommend looking up an actual build to play 😆
This is a great video guide! I've been a long time player of Ascension but I still found this immensely useful. Sharing it with my Guildies!
Thanks i plan on making another video specifically about just about schools of natures as i did a terrible job explaining it here haha. I might even include better prepared examples and rank the different schools on how well they scale😁
This video is concise, very informative, and pleasant to watch. Great job.

I've been lost trying to find out as a guy who played up to WOTLK , now coming back to this and liking it but so confused. Ty for this vid. I sub'd
You do fantastic descriptions and explanations in your videos. Glad I found your channel and your discord.
Eyy, thanks for the kind words😉
Hey thanks for this. Im just returning and trying to re learn the old and new stuffs. This helps a lot
Great content as always. Keep em coming dude 👍
Thanks man. i'm still improving and researching to get better, so its more enjoyable to watch. But i appreciate the support a lot
Some rly great info, but it would also help to clarify diff between spells and abilities as it is quite important and rly hard to tell. A short explanation would help
Love the content so far, great job !
LOVE Free Pick, I am able to make a great build with DoTs, Damage, Shields, Mobility and Stealth all at once.
Hey at the 12:56 mark where did you find that list that shows what schools work well together or whatever it’s called? Cheers!
Its on the ascension database. If you want to, you can join my discord and check the channel i have in there for "usefull links" you will be able to find the page there
Will do thank you!!!
I love quantum physics and astrophysics. This is more complicated. Really well made video though!
Its alright, i want to remake it in the future for sure, i missed quite a few things, and my production quality has definitely gone up. So in future (maybe season 10) i can do another one
@@Sneptics_Official I know the feeling, I look back at my older videos and shudder.
Finally. The video i am looking for.
Thanks for the guide, as I always hit a wall at lv30/35 no matter my playstyle

Let's see if this helps me build a dungeon farming build
New to ascension, this is a lot to take in but I understand how this is suppose to work.
Hello , thanks for the guide. Can you give some info regarding fast leveling aswell please?
Maybe, we will see in the future
Could you reccomend a good 2h paladin or deathknight build?
Like a DOT deathknight build or just straight ability damage Retribution Paladin.
Please and thank you m'lord, liked and subscribed!
Love it! Excellent video
Thanks, hope you will stay around, i have more videos coming out
@@Sneptics_Official Hell ya! It’s nice seeing new people create content for this stuff!
Nice one mate, keep going
I don't have a skills card tab on my window, have I missed something here? Is there something you need to do to unlock that tab? I have a hero architect tab.
You are most likely playing on the area-52 server instead of elune
is this mainly for draft pick? or the same concept works for free pick?
Mainly draft pick. Making a build on free pick is.... free, you can pick whatever you want and change it, so theres not much of a point in making a guide for that
what editor do you use
Davinci Resolve
Thanks heaps for your guide!

do DoTs snapshot, or does each tick actively read your stats?
That is a really good question actually, stay tuned for one of my upcoming videos where i will be talking about how dots work.
Very informative! Thank you so much
Ur so welcome!
Great video, went into depth and explained the game really well and the differences from retail so thank you 🦾🦾
Is this in elude or area 52?
Elune
What build are you playing in the video? Looks fun.
I also plan on making a build guide for that, its currently not even at 50% the strength.

Thanks man im glad you found it helpfull❤️
Anyone has a good feral build i always drop wild card and go prestige cuz all builds at end suck or i dont have luck reroling
Do you need to be 60 to spend MoA on skill cards?
Yes
Pick a single target and and aoe. get talents that buff those.
Just feed back: Either just say "Increased Nature resistance" then you can take the racial, or stick to "Nature Resistance Aura" and actually show Aspect of the Wilds.
Calling it "natures" instead of schools (which is also in the chart you show) is confusing with the Nature school.
Well yea. I did most of it in one take, and i didnt feel like re-recording parts of it. But your right. Might do a guide specifically on spell schools
I'll be real, I wanted to do a bear build but the problem I have is self-healing
It's easy spam rerolls and keep every crit talent B)
Haha yea, that helps too
all fine and dandy, but then you don't roll what you need for that build #neverlucky
Is this still accurate

I only play free pick. The RNG on Elune is maddening lol
Free pick just becomes so boring to me after a while.
