@@Masmix77 If you mean for burst farming, I run Sena on Ogre with break brooch and accuracy accessories to break/topple/daze, but mainly just to break. Then I have Lanz as my single tank on Guardian Commander, but anyone that can topple is probably fine. For the rest, I have 1 signifier, and 3 troubadours, and load everyone else up with topple/daze/burst arts/master arts, and capable hands. Troubadour hero too. Pretty much just about everyone can topple/burst/daze endlessly with art recharge, and I control Sena to break. You can probably optimize it more but I haven't really bothered to.

"so what did Monolith Soft do this time? The exact same thing". Good! We enjoy big numbers for big happy chemicals. I personally enjoy putting physical atk roles on Taion because of his chain order coming with a reduction to physical attack resistance and with a base 35 TP at the start so he seemed to me really good for that kind of setup.

So break with topple, topple with launch or daze, etc. You can’t go break with a launch just to skip to launch. Also whatever effect of the two goes 1st HAS to be an art on the main class. So break has to be on the main class with topple master art. Master arts take 2nd priority when fused. Another example: launch to smash. Launch has to be the art on the main class, smash the master art bc it comes 2nd

Definitely one of my favourite classes. I just like seeing those big crit numbers.

Yesssss!!! Love how I just requested this yesterday lol. Next up we need a lone exile and I’ll be truly happy ❤️

The class I was looking forward to the most before the game came out. Crit builds are fun and Alexandria has one of the best designs in the game (Miyabi being the other lol). So happy the class is fun. Big numbers are nice

I always love a class that has one of the "standard" dps master skill (critical strike, eye for weakness, fighting prowess) built in thier class skills. Hence my inclinations toward incursor/ flash fencer and ogre. Add to that how incursor's entire skills are useful (in fact one can say it's almost overkill on critical rate sometimes) vs some other attacker classes with 1 or 2 so-so skills. Great video for a great class!

Thanks for the guide! My favorite Hero character so far at my point in the game!

Damn Incursor is strong. I’m actually going to hold off on using this after I get all the skills and arts maxed out for the characters I want to have use those skills and arts. It makes the game a little too easy, but I can’t deny I get a certain carnal satisfaction from doing an Aerial Slash/Hidden Thorn Fusion Art boosted by Power Charge and deleting half a health bar

I have been following you since my journey starting from XCDE. I still am amazed by the fact that every content you release optimizes my team greatly. I don't know when I'll stop being at awe with the way you optimize teams. Before I watched this, I was doing like 3M chain attacks purely by luck. Now, my normal chain attacks with Incursor class easily gets 3.3-3.5m bare minimum. (Beginning of Chapter 4).

I'm currently using this class with Taion as well & this is one of the most fun class I've been using.

Just wanted to say thank you for the guide. I used this one, not fully optimized (not max lvl gems, not max lvl classes, missing some Master Skills), and i managed to clap the superbosses!

You're awesome! Really good quality content

Been waiting for this one!

THANK YOU for explaining Ultimate Qigong. This whole time I thought it had diminishing returns on enemies with low physical defense. I am immediately replacing that skill that does 40% more when using physical arts (I forget its name) for Ultimate Qigong instead, on all my builds.

Incursor is so fun to use. The class alone can do the whole smash combo by itself. By far, given it's launch damage modifiers, the smash finisher is just insane and satisfying to hit. I run incursor with: Glitter stream paired with shield bash, guarantees topple if manages hit (plus adds to talent art Guage) Soaring temptest paired with aerial slash just insta launches the enemy frame 1 and can be quickly cancelled into the smash talent art. Cross impact paired with sidewinder because, vanilla attacker stuff + talent art gauge. In less than 5 seconds you can do the whole combo by yourself and since smash causes AoE damage, then fights don't last that long. For more effectiveness, breakogre with launch focused party and enemies can be smash combo locked, all by yourself. Add troubadour and happy smashing, even if you die by aggro

@PyraXadon

Жыл бұрын

Similarly, Incursor can all do a whole Burst combo by itself too. Same setup with Shield baseh, but you can attach something like Sidewinder with Myopic Screen, and then use Demise Thrust on talent art. It's definitely a little slower and the timing is a little tight, but it does exist. The fact that this class by itself can accomplish both break combos on its own is ridiculous and I'm surprised they even let Incursor get away with this.

@@JoeThomas-lu6fy Nothing's stopping you from doing that, but that would require all of your master art slots + talent art slot. You're dedicating the character entirely to doing solo smash combos somewhat inefficiently too since talent art building can be rather slow depending on the character. What makes Incursor bonkers is its ability to instantly topple an enemy with Glitter Stream + Shield Bash. You're accomplishing two steps in a break combo in one move since the effect of master arts comes after the class art's effect is resolved. This can give you a lot of leeway in chain attacks since the enemy's been toppled in one motion. Compared to devoting your entire smash combo on one character, which necessitates them to do every step of the combo themselves one at a time. (Plus, talent arts can't be done in a chain attack. Making the Keves version not viable in chain attacks.)

im glad to see my feeling from my casual playthrough being confirmed.

So proud of Miyabi for becoming the new face of Enel

I absolutely love this class and I’ve been using it in Noah since I got the class. I was also able to get an 83% crit rate on him I have since changed my build but that was still fun

My favorite class. Noah has been my main dps monster on this ^^ Been trying out the Lone Exile's Gale Slash since its 5 hits so it might give faster Adroit Blade stacks? Not sure if its on damage instances or per art. Then again soaring tempest also is a multihit art

My favorite part of this class is how Alexandria’s sword kinda looks like the ol zekenator’s. It sorta takes you down memory lane in a weird way

I love this class to death, to the point where I even managed to get through the quest to get it underlevelled. It was hard, but SO worth it!

You probably know it already but since they didn't show up in your "all superbosses" video I thought I'd tell you anyway. There is a duo of lvl 102 monsters (King Krawkin & Conqueror Deepwan) in "Demihuma Gutter" at the end of the "malevolent hollow". It's located in a cave at the "searing strand" (geothermal zone in erythia sea). A really long cavern filled to the brim with lvl 96-100 monsters. Correct me if I'm wrong but since they are lvl 100+ & unique I thought they'd count as superbosses. On the map "searing strand" is located just to the right from where you first enter the erythia sea by boat. A little below and then to the right of Vinisog Holm.

I’m still learning a lot about the nuances of this game but I remember thinking Ultimate Qigong had a typo in the description because of how obviously insanely broken that is lol

Are you going to do a video/videos about Chain Orders and heroic chains ?

Incursor and Flash Fencers are my go to attackers in the party, i love them so much

This is kinda random but I think a hero tier list would be helpful for people. Just knowing how effective hero’s are generally in and out of chain attacks. I guess just bringing Ashera all the time works too though lol.

@EnelXC

Жыл бұрын

I have a plan for that soon actually

Just would like to know if you will do another build guide for soul hacker. Last time you just only discuss how strong as a attacker. Would like to know if there is another build as defender or healer.

Not that it's necessary but one strat I saw someone talking about is leveraging the combined relatively low aggro value + innate higher crit autos to charge up skills and then using the Martial Artist talent art to dump damage, I dunno if it's better than spamming but Incursor is definitely a job that can run that sort of setup. They're also able to run the refund art recharge on crit passive and leverage something like tyrant bite to basically get a positional even from a Keves art every few seconds.

question, how do you unlock the party attack skills? also, I keep finding more extreamly good Heroes for Chain Attak, there is Fiora that can give you 2 additional orders and also Seguiri, that can, and will, make sure you reach Amazing ratting round 2 at minimun for the rest of the chain... question2, is Seguiris order % or Percentage points?

The set I'm suggesting is probably not the best, but it is funniest. Using the skills Frenzied combo and Dance of Barrages will basically allow you to spam arts nearly indefinitely. Pair this up with a power charge spamming Signifer and art recharging Troubadour and you'll shred through boss HP... if you don't die from the shear amount of aggro your getting.

7:02 This is something I've been wondering about for a while watching your videos. You seems to have a great distain for debuffs in this game but you are recommend hidden thorn on basically every physical attacker. According to you, the bleed will almost never go through (even if you have skills to support it) and the 150% total damage buff from something like fatal bite should far outclass the extra 100% base power from hidden thorn and its on a much shorter cooldown.

I haven't watched all of these guides yet, but I recall you saying that Noah's, Eunie's and Taion's Ouroboros order are the best ones for damage and I'm still a little lost on that. Which one should I always try to go for?

Watching this showed me one thing that i glanced over early on, you can choose who goes next in the chain order. I am lv 50+ in this game and i just noticed this now 💀

I little bonus fact: in this game block rate and crit rate are able based on level but no matter what level you are you'll always get that 100% crit rate with incurser as long as the class rank is 20 and the enemy is launched!

Extremely fun class of an extremely fun hero. Outputs huge numbers to boot.

Can you make a video about heroes in the future? Ashera is obviously very strong, but I’m interested what your thoughts about other heroes like Fiona.

Never played this game but the constant flip is hilarious

I was running like 3 FMJs when I got access to Incursor (super early actually because I'm a wacko that explored the high level areas immediately), and ever since I got Incursor, I either was running an Incursor or wishing I was running an Incursor. Fun class + big damage = hard mode annihilation.

When do you get this class? I'm in Chapter 5 and have already had my 1st encounter with the hero, done all 4 of the subquests to get her (Fought, defeated and discussed her 4 generals) and the game still won't let me into the colony nor has it given me her hero quest. Does it open up more through the story or am I just doing something wrong?

We needed this.One of the best attacker classes

From where do I get these Master Skills... which Class do I need to have leveld to 10 to unlock them please?

There's a thing that I don't understand. Ultimate Quigong affects the entire party or only the one who has the skill equipped?

Would love a Martial Artist guide

I mainly use noah with capable hands to get his mode ult so can I use this class instead of his base class?

Assuming crit damage is additive with itself with the gem and passive for c dmg, and the long animation of the art. Wonder if worth runing over another atk art

Good timing as I unlocked this like an hour ago.

It’s just a fun class to set up everything to have as high a critical rate that does as much damage as possible. Always hitting hardest in my chain attacks

so wait actually confused about something now that i think about it. If fatal bite has a 150% positional modifier, wont it always deal more damage than Hidden Thorn in chain attacks since positional always apply? If that's the case3 isn't fatal bite just straight up better?

how come you dont get a cinematic for the talent art? is that something post chapter 4 (im not that far yet haha)

how do you unlock more talent arts? I only got 1 for all characters except noah who has his unique one from story.

yeeaaaah you did the one I asked for

I didn't know hard mode affected the durations of some things, I thought it was just damage and health related. Is that mentioned anywhere or was it just something empirical that people figured out? Guides are great as always, keep it up! The Stalker class is something I'd like to see a guide on since it seems differently paced.
