Opportunity's Reach is probably technically the best of the mods since there's only 4 melee mods providing range and you can layer on so much damage with heavy attacks anyway that the massive 3 meter boost increases the KPM massively
I watched some of of your videos a few hours before going To bed because I missed your content and now I wake up and there’s a new video the world isn’t so bad sometimes
I just found your channel today and it s absolutely hilarious* From your accent, to the edit, to the ridicolous amount of info that you throw at a degenrate fast pace, it's just so unique and funny....and i m just a noob, i can't imagine how crazy it s this for veteran players that actually know every bit you are talking about. I ll check more vids for sure, Greetings from Italy ciao 🤸
NGL i clicked the video cause I thought it was going to be a build around his 4th and I don't have one currently despite wukong being my most used frame. I can't help but laugh seeing as this is confirmation that his 4th is total trash and it wasn't just me being a noob. Amazing tenokai guide however, great vid!
"This can also with certain stances such as Gemini Cross on the Tonfas in order to get a tennokai opportunity every 2 hits". >Multi-strike attacks do not count as additional hits. "Which actually brings the Praedos into being a viable weapon" The Praedos was already the strongest generic crit-slash light attack melee in the game. It's a tonfa which means guaranteed 500% slash on heavy attacks, and it gets access to Sovereign Outcast, whose neutral combo is possibly the most powerful melee combo in the game with an average DPS multiplier of 771.9%, 800% damage in confirmed slash procs on the third hit of the combo, and 15 hits total in a 4-input combo, building combo multiplier at a ludicrous speed. It's 2nd evolution for increased attack speed increases it's _base_ attack speed before mods, increasing the value of attack speed modding drastically- this is the factor that puts its damage ahead of the Kronen Prime, on top of gaining range (which could free up the Primed Reach slot for even more damage), and attack speed (this time additive to mods) whenever you go into incarnon form. As if being the strongest generic melee wasn't already enough, it also grants you 30% parkour velocity passively on it's third evolution (which would make it meta anyway even if it wasn't also a strong weapon) just for the purposes of speedrunning. "You might as well save yourself the exilus weapon adapter" (on the Glaive Prime) You'd be crazy not to slot Dispatch Overdrive, which will drastically increase your speedrunning capabilities, on one of the most useful melees in the game. "Yellow archon shard to increase the effectiveness of health orbs and then a purple archon shard to convert that health into energy" This does not work, you don't gain any more energy from health orbs via Equilbrium effects by increasing the effectiveness of health orbs. Overall, this build has little to no reason to be done on Wukong over other frames. The title made me think "perhaps someone found a way to make iron staff good finally" but i was mislead.
Heavy exodia contagion still works, you just gotta throw normally then heavy slam and the projectile gets the heavy attack benefits (idk if it's been patched)
I play Wukong primarily as a gun platform, only using the Iron Staff for my melee. This setup is really fuckin cool though, I won't lie. Kinda tempted to actually grind out those pathos clamps for the Bo Incarnon. Very well done.
Another thing the Iron Staff has going for it (it can be shockingly powerful, even in Netracells), is that 1.0 follow-through. Follow-through is probably my least favorite mechanic added to melee back in the Old Blood update when they implemented heavy attacks and such. It wasn't even something I was fully aware of until the last year or so. When I finally noticed, so many things clicked all at once about why I started to dislike melee in general. Could go on a 30-minute rant easily on stances and follow-through, but I digress. Iron Staff with the range and full follow-through just actually feels so good for once.
Archon conti is extremly good on Citrine (gives her with green shards the ability to full strip and her team) and is useful somewhat on Saryn(not needed but atleast can be used)
for my wukong build I use wrathful advance and iron stuff, abusing the iron staffs maxed follow-through stat and maxing range, you can become a bayblade of death.
I'v reached half a bil orange crith with Umbra and the Syam ☠️ there's no follow through loss of damage and it's nice to clean an entire corridor in one wave like some anime protagonist 😂 got to get use to the aim / hitbox tho
Did you have mismatching tennokai on your melee and exalted? I found that putting different tennokai mods on your melee and your exalted causes funny things to happen, and not in a good way
My personal dumb build is an innate combo Furax Wraith with Voruna. Ready steel and max combo can give you 5x innate. makes charging incarnon stupid easy and heavy spam viable outside of tennokai if you just want a big punch.
You forgot the zaw mod that deals damage with 50% chance on status effect. If enemy's are close to you on. Swing, it deals damage that squares itself with each enemy added example {.5 (2d)^x} x= # of enemies. d= damage of hit with status effect. The .5 is to give the average with the 50% chance.
I did see it but I didn't include it in the video since I was focusing on Tennokai and Heavy attacks so it wasn't relevant, if I was just talking about Zaws then I would have included it for sure, its effectively a flat buff if you can breach 200% status chance :D
Do you always speak this way outside of your vids? Bc I had to slow down the video & turn on CC just to know what your saying...of course the CC didn't even know what your saying either! Then there's your low, mono-tone voice that makes me wanna fall asleep! I know what your gonna say..."if you don't like it then don't watch it" well yeah...obviously I'm not gonna watch your annoying videos! There's plenty of other creators out there that make actually good vids so yeah I'm gonna watch them! You should probably work on your way of speaking so you dont put ur viewers asleep my guy...your welcome
Why you talking so fast in this video for no apparent reason?! Or was this video sped up in editing to hit a certain time threshold? Had to watch this whole vid in 0.75x playback else can't even grasp WTH is going on.
>"Iron staff sucks" Arcane Strike, Nourish, 3 gladiator mods on your melee, Melee Exposure on your melee, Iron Staff augment, 5 purple shards for +375% melee crit damage
Needing to invest 5 purple shards just to make it good means it’s bad… I shouldn’t have to fill out every single slot if it’s a “good” weapons. Their plenty of actual good weapons that don’t need 5 archon shards to shred although to maximize dmg sure go for if but as in the case of his staff it’s just not worth it I’d rather build him to be a tank or go for duration.
