Crowd Wisdom: Incarnons, Week 1
Crowd Wisdom: Incarnons, Week 1
I'm a little bit late with this one! I've been having fun with ReFantazio and I guess I just mentally warped a week or something. Hopefully everyone's locked in for the week and working towards some goodies.
Up this week:
- Braton
- Lato
- Kunai
- Skana
- Paris
There's some cool things this rotation. My personal recommendations are the Skana and the Kunai, read on to find out why!
Braton
Braton Prime is an easily acquired evergreen, and Braton Vandal is a very cool and very rare drop from Elite Sanctuary. Has kind of an interesting build anchor with Prelude of Might, which gives you base 5x crit if you stay under 50% crit. I need to test if bugged multiplying crit like Biting Frost and Zephyr's tornadoes (on the radial component only) break the condition, although field tests with Biting Frost make it look like much of a muchness.
Lato
If you don't have the Vandal, and I don't blame you if you don't since it's a painfully rare drop from ESO, your only option as a non-Founder is the OG Lato you buy with creds.
We actually have two Deathtrap Trigger weapons this week, and this is the first one! It's also the less interesting one. Works great with Outburst builds, which are better than ever now with Galvanized Reflex if you don't have Melee Crescendo yet. Outburst Deathtrap is an intensely powerful combo and this does not disappoint in absolute terms.
Kunai
The king this week, although its optimal power is behind a pretty involved setup that some people might find too clunky, even with the damage output. There are a few ingredients here: the first is that the Kunai incarnon seeks heads, the second is that it has multiplicative Cascadia Accuracy, and the final is that it has Deathtrap Trigger. It's a bit weird to get used to, but you roll, buffer a weapon swap mid-roll, and shoot your funny little head-seeking daggers for massive damage. It's very fluid once you get the hang of it.
Skana
Yup, it's an incarnon melee. They're all great, and this one is a sword! There's nothing really special about the evolutions. Put Influence on it and kill everything around you. Pretty good as a stat stick for pseudo-exalteds, so naturally Excals building for Slash Dash murder will love this, assuming you're not doing Chromatic Blade blastdash memes.
Paris
Another evergreen Prime, although with more parts than the others. The Prime has a neat exilus augment from Father in the Necralisk that massively increases the status chance on the bow, which is very nice. Has multiplicative Galv. Aptitude. Hits like a truck, racks status and very easy to build for Blast due to its innate Heat.
