Anyone else tried using Ancient Cold Generation Device with cold aruls and beconing? this applies to ranged advys only btw. melee can kiss my ass.
note: the 115 is bracer dammage and the 50 is Bane
i figured 115*2 +50 for a period of 3min=840+ (115*2)+220+50 =500 for 1min over a period of 5 minutes total(1340) > (115+23)*5=690
i have been using the following script to achieve this. in light of the new setup, ive modified the script
so any thoughs? i haven't ofcourse taken into account specials but havent noticed any difference in FA, its still does 10kish. burst however has gone upto 6k+Code:/g dgdgdgdg018 <font color="#0080FF">Cold Generation Device</font> /delay 180000 /g dgdgdgdg018 <font color="#0080FF">Beconing</font> /delay 30000 /bec
also note don't start about screwing up team mates dammage etc. pretend this is for solo only.
edit: added the +50 cold stim from alp
edit 2: That was the theory, in practice both beconing and cold generation device seem to have a flag that removes dammge types as well. aka if u run beconing before the cold dev. nano is gone from ncu when it goes it will remove the cold dammage flag set by beconing.
im seriously considering training combat knoledge 8 for the perk "redeem last wish" and say good bye to beconing.
edit 3: trained combat knoledge 8. collecting -skill lock modifier items. currently at 43%. so lockout time is at 3:04. just gotta shave off that 4secs. the loss of the 8 ai perks don't really hurt me atm cause i took em out of nano combat which i dont really need. but that's just personal pref and ai lv.
edit 4 and final update
ok update.
trained combat knowledge 8 for redeem last wish and i have just enough -skill to get 3:00 min recharge. however due to the problems with the perk beconing as mentioned in the original post i am finding it easier to simply chain cold generation device.
so final damage is ((115*2)+50)*5) =1400. over a period of 5 min.
the downsides.
1) having to use -skill lock stuff (some are easy enogh to get, some arn't)
2) having to train combat knowledge 8. ( can be a rather major downsize. however getting the -40% reduction to heal stims (especially the new alba ones) might make it worth it.)
Ofcourse you could also use all the things above AND beconing if you are soloing or something. damage in that case would be
((115*2)+50)*3 + (((115*2)+50)+220)*.5 + ((115*2)+50)*1.5
(280*3)+(500*.5)+(280*1.5)
840+250+420
1510 =total over a period of 5mins.
note that you are always doing cold damage with these setups and u dont have nay downtime. and essentially you nearly triple your add damage from bracers
and thats all folks
