GOD loves you enough to send HIS only SON to save you and if you repent and turn from your sins and be baptized in THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON and THE HOLY SPIRIT. ((if you haven't )

Great vid! Just the problem with The Strategist Card is that any person with a brain could immediately see that the artifact is a straight up cashgrab. They didn’t even make an effort with the damn thing, not a tad innovative. Scrap of the Soul Cloak to be able to spam your supercharge. The Transformation Card to get 25% more crit. (EVERYONE LOVES TO CRIT) Grimorium Verum to summon a pet that alters the way you play your favorite power. But with The Strategist Card…yeah…get a dot that deals damage, that’s literally it. So why don’t we all just buy more damage, because that’s so fun! Strategist Card was just lazy way to buff all powers. I can’t help but notice that you put The La-Mort as a failed artifact when it’s most definitely an A-Tier artifact for powers that lack single target abilities like Electricity. Electricity has one of the best finishers in the game and you’re saying that a 10% damage increase to Ionic Drain is non-sense? A 10% damage increase to an already strong ability is no joke. Also you seem to be missing out the fact that Omegahedron would be A-Tier for powers like Mental or Hardlight that has ridiculous power consumptions. Artifacts were made for the sole purpose of amplifying powers and if an artifact can fulfill that purpose in atleast one role then it is definitely not a failed artifact.

Mercy is definitely an A tier art it can be used for might builds, pet builds and tanking some even art swap it so its definitely not B tier lol

Just started playing & wanted to say your vids have been immensely helpful. Keep 'em coming!

Come on man tell the truth in the beginning we didn’t need artifacts to play DC it’s all about the $$$ signs

Awesom job new to the channel I've been gone for 5 years and With these artifacts it can be really confusing but this helps out a lot thank you very much

Power tier list next?

Every time I think of the lasso, the only thing that comes to mind are those tanks dragging the adds and rushing everyone through the instance. Tank's a support role, not a protagonist - and I say that as a healer myself. Oh, and Zeus freaking out because of the lasso is a total nightmare. Lasso could be great if you're using it, but I only have negative associations to it, because I only notice it when it's annoying me.

Your videos are truly appreciated. Keep up the good work.

Eye of Gemini is good for All power in pve tbh

Hey obsidian chill can you make a nature battle heal updated please? (with clarion)

Artifact swapping get harder and very risky on Elite plus content.

orb should be A not C. It is still very viable.

Half of these arts are swapped in by the trolls 😂

La Morte is a B if you're using it with The Batman Who Laughs Ally. I've used it extensively the past few months and its awesome.They do need to give you a countdown on when its going to pop. Or give you some visual notification that it has hit w/how much damage rather than relying on the log window.

If you're going to do a video for Bosses, don't forget that annoying Murk w/ his Guthook special in FP Gotham map.

JESUS loves you so much and may you receive HIS Comfort and feel HIS love, and just know that the darker our situation the lighter HE shines, if you believe in HIM and turn from your sins, you will be saved, if you have not.

I’ve watched this before and never realized you had BOP as a C even before the SC regen it was S. Clarion one of my fav arts for heal and tank (tank to play around with) but not an S because you can’t use it in every situation. So A is good for that imo. Page S. Mystical also S

If multiple people run tetra or cog do the buffs stack? I get what youre saying about most dps being selfish, but to me it seems like a group buff would just help everything die faster. Im not a selfish dps and i dont care about being top damage. Just want to watch everything burn as fast as possible

Can you please make another tier list. It would help so much.

I just fast forward till minute 34:15 to see all list already full 🥴

gemni eye is shet regardless of its usefullness vaguely in each role, because when other arts are there for your 3 slot , eye for example isnt as usefull as other tank art not even for swapping

How about hardest open world bosses according to generation ie barbatos

Mask is definitely A tier on ice lol

Dear Obsidian.. i need some help! I want know what artefacts are more useful for Sorceress summoner, thanks a lot 💖

What? Lasso failed artifact? You out of your mind certainly.

Ultimate soldier easy number 1

Whats best for hybrid celestial/hand blast user. Artfifacts

Do a from scratch series make a whole brand new account membership only and record the progress

Do a countering and lunging tutorial for tanks. These newbies out here need help😂

This feels a little biased towards raid content. Some artifacts like LA Mort are much better for solo work with a boss where you want your finisher more often and not the entire loadout because aoe isn't helpful.

Off topic question, sorry but with the role switch shortcut (i.e. swapping to the tank loadout) does that change your stats in anyway or is it just an out of combat loadout swap if you're not also equipping tank or healer gear. Currently playing as a duo and wanting to do some more healing on my sorc but we can't really lose my dps so I was thinking about half measure or hybrid to help keep us in tougher fights but I'm not really sure if that's the route to take or what. Finding info about this stuff is hard because I can't tell if guides are outdated or not. In that situation would it also be worth leveling one of the healing artifacts to swap in (no real plans to take on larger group content) or just make do and keep the dps arts instead. Thanks, your videos have been super helpful.

You confuse me in regards to Claw. You say "You don't want to go into content with the claw because if you do, the power return may be high but your missing massive buffs for the support roles and DPS." I assume you meant you don't want to go into content WITHOUT the Claw.

I'm done with DCUO when I can create my own powers then maybe 🤔 I can reconsider anyway I'm selling my character IceMan11206.

There’s not much point in doing an artefact tier list, when in your ice tank guide you say Circe Mask is best in slot & now here in this video you trash talk it! Artifacts are insanely expensive to rank & now I feel I’ve made the wrong decision to use my 200 Circe Mask artifact to breakthrough the eye of Gemini.

They should buff all the low tier Artifacts, especially heart of ISIS. I wish it had a stronger buff and gives a lightning aura or something.

Artifact Reforged Tantu Totem?

Lol bro i use the 3 cards and have no problem celsest close combat suport dps prec spec but might prec ballanced tbh i a gree with u for the rest but dont fergot knowledge above all 😁 but yh ty dc devs to bliiiip up the game

Even with double artifact xp I just managed to max out 1 art after playing off and on for 10 years. How much do you have to pay just to max out 1 art in 1 go

I use it for híbrid dps with the computo's. And in the begini6its hard but after booth are on rank 200 they start working pretty well together

So what artifact do you believe is the most underrated?

Is Venom Wrist dispenser good for Electric Precision dps? I have Grim too

can you do an updated version of this video please if you have time

Sparing AI will not work against boss mechanical crowd control habilities but it will work on boss and adds regular habilities.

Hey OC, I got the BOP for trolling and loving it, with a troll loadout now though, should I just have the claw power proc, the BOP proc, then run damaging powers right? Theres no more need to have the other debuff powers taking up the slots and causing CCs anymore correct?

Well game is broke today try to upgrade a artifact and no option to out a seal in

I’d rank Amazballs over source shard. Survivability alone dictates otherwise. ObsidianChill, I’ve tested it. Unless you can get Source Shard to proc more frequently? I can almost guarantee, Amazballs is going to out perform it almost every damn time. Again? That is my personal opinion and you can test it yourself to see, my logic is far from off. -Khangus Kahn

I would love to see an artifact for Amazonian Bracers like how we got one for heat vision that for lvl 80, 120, 160, 200 rank ups. It reduces cooldown, makes Amazon Bracers immune to block break, And takes percent of damage absorbed to become a buff to defence and health for a period of time up to a cap percent.

I watched your other video about the source shard artifact and getting the bonus damage from superpowers. Can you tell me what gadget dps powers will make that hit? Btw I run grim, quislet and source shard.

Would you say for HL that quizlet and grim could work together?

i totally disagree with la mort being fail. i’m a celest sp 179 cr 384 art 123 and i top dps raid with my single target load out. that doom hits hard and it’s very noticeable in the stats man

Best arts for a prec dps causal player? (no art swapping)

Reforged Tantu Totem?

Should I use Grim as an art swap or not bother for the 10% extra damage?

I still don’t understand how manacles is better than mystic, you seem to like manacles very much & i don’t understand why considering the 45second cooldown.

Would u drop trans for quicker as a night munitions dps? Running trans strat grim rn

I'm troll. Its a good ideia to use Solar Amplifier?

35 seconds into the vid and I’m 100% confident Starheart will be a fail

that Dark Knight reference when talking about lazaurus made me chuckle 😂

Wait....prec DPS 'NOT' using power?? I my PUG experiences they are the ones that drain their power bars the fastest! (I understand they shouldnt be using that much power...but that doesn't seem to be the case)

Would you say that Quislet is better than Grim even for precision dps now? In your past videos, you said that your comparisons only applied to might, but here, you're not making that qualification.

What do you suggest to do for players in Switch server ?

I am talking about the sparing AI artifact.

Can you update with shock update art

Hello, nice video, Can you make a tier ranking of might dps powers?

hi ! is there any website i can get information about the game ? ingame informations like where to get the artifacts and so on

What about heart of isis

What are your Recommend artifacts for best precision dps

OB, what's your take on the arti setup for Light DPS? Trans/Strat/Grim because the PI applicators & SCs suck? Or is that inferior to Trans/Strat/Quislet running Neo-Venom Boost as SC & no PI applicator?

Obsidian wouldn’t The Clarion work better with Mystic Symbol of the Seven to get even better heals as a Tank?

I don't know. I feel a fire tank is weakest when it's shields drop between cool downs. You're not mitigating any damage during this period and is usually when. You take the most spike damage. The extra healing to fill in the gap might be nice. I'm still working on manacles and mystic though. So I wouldn't be able to test Circe's mask for a while. I keep looking at it though lol.

Bop at C tier is crazy

Next one best artifacts for each power

how do you get bottle the purple one ?

I use dual pistols with GOH and do pretty well.

What powers/supercharges would you say work best with piper’s flute?

Hey Obsidian! First off, love the content, really helpful. Second, what artifacts and loadout would you recommend running for fire tanking? Would it be the same that you had in your Fire Tank guide? Because I remember seeing someone running around with Mystic, Clarion and Demon Fang and using snuff out and fiery weapon in their loadout. Just wanted to see what you would recommend more

I'm electric and use scrap, eog, and quislet. I'm considering just trading scrap for trans. You think it's worth it?

Is legionnaire sparring air artifact recommended for precision dps?

Death letter to dps is the best

Tetra buffs twice as much might than claw….

What is tetra and rao?

Lol bottle soda S tier! Lit

LaMort card works wonders for my loadout for munitions and electricity 🤷🏾

RIP EOG

Maybe SM bosses tier list from first SM to current SM

Do the best raids to comp

I'm guessing transformation card is #1

Wondering if you should use Gemini with Quizlet

Agree with most of the rankings except La Mont card. It should have been higher because of the 20% buff it gives to finishers. Munitions' Electric and Water use finishers in their rotation so how is that a fail when their finishers already hit hard AF.

gj

Omegahedron not an S tier is kinda disrespectful ngl

Legit

Do I need the claw at 160 or 200?

Does the king respond?

You're drinking draino if you think the philosophers stone and dead king scepter is better than BOP com. A supply drop and orbital strike artifact???? Guess I'd expect that from a dps. And purple healing ray is ass. I'll take POD all day. Laz water is no where near S tier. It's only used for SM and elite plus raids. Who's going to use that for omnibus content or regular raids?? Where do you come up with this stuff??? Smh

Which artifact prevents channeling interruption?

Epic vid, just checked out crits with Trans + Strat, brutal... dunno what I was doing keeping Grim.

Is Grim better than Quislet if you are Water Might DPS? Does the quislet bonuses outweigh Grim's P.I application (and extra might stats) for water's rotations? Really appreciate the artifact videos, thank you!
