This Aura & Ring Changes Necromancy! - New BEST In Slot? 

lmao ffs thank you for correction

LOL when i saw that part i was like wtf is 4:67?

Yeah.. I was mid writing my comment and saw this 😂😂😂

😂😂

must be that cursed imperial measurement system or something.

Interesting way to say it was slower.

I was just now coming to question this... I mean brug... 4 minutes and 67 seconds is another way of saying 5 minutes and 7 seconds with is longer than the mahj aura & grim 😝

FYI this was at 6:20

i saw this and was extremely confused

Healing is slightly more but it isn't gonna be game changing. But not using grim is so damn nice haha

It only affects stuff that's damage is based on ability damage, so it won't buff familiars.

@@RockBandRS Thanks

Personally I'd assume that the other ring is better, because getting necrosis at the wrong time might make your rotation a bit less efficient (like getting only 2 stacks from your touch of death because the ring put you at 10/12). The simplest way to test is to just compare a 3 stack volley of souls average damage to a finger of deaths average damage, as both would then be a 0 cost ability you got for free after 3 procs of their respective ring (I'd check now but I'm out and about on mobile). Also with rasial lantern you can have 5 stacks of souls, which just means you're less likely to hit the cap of the resource, which means again more value (especially if you're building these stacks for free during your usual living death rotation)

So I think the rs guy said if you do more than 180k DPM then jas is better and 180k dpm is very easy to do. Also wen book isn't all that good at bosses that move. Wen might be good at places like ed1 on the trash mods cuz it can hit multiple enemies.

@@maximumeffort6049 Wen also gets better when enemies are poisonable - not sure if that's in the calculations you mention

Single or mobile boss you can consistently get loads of damage in at? Jas Stationary boss and/or mobs to wade through? Wen. How I decide :P Wen is great for Zuk, frex, as the mobs melt, and Zuk only moves when you do

Auras start going on cooldown as soon as you activate it. So if its a 4hr cd, but a 1 hour aura, you only have to wait 3 hours once it ends. But yeah if you log off, that cd timer keeps going, meaning you could log off for 4 hours come back, use the rest of your aura then activate it again. For the dark magic bit, I meant to say mahjarat and revers ring lol oops.

@@InitYeah auras go on cd after they're intended to end, as an example i was just using extended resourceful (1hr regularly and i extended to 2hrs) it has a 3hr cooldown. After I finished my 2hr resourceful aura it still had 3 hours of cooldown left. If i had logged out for 2.5 hours and then used the 2 hour aura, it would have had 30mins cooldown left.

I didn't test it with the EQ aura but I would assume the new one is better. Maybe give it a go! : )

By the looks of it, the Kal'gerion demon.

@@BarrySuridge but doesn’t that just give crit chance ? But the aura takes crits away no?

Grind the relic once you get the qualifications out of the way arch is so much faster just farm the best artifacts for you level and you’ll get there eventually

oops lol

Which is funny because a few seconds before it shows 4:57 😂

😂

You can still get 3 death skulls in Living Death without Inspiration or Supreme Invigorating, the timing is just ridiculously tight to do so, and you (afaik) need to have Adrenaline Renewals for it to work (you MUST use LD & Renewal on the same tick)

Yeah once you have Adren renewals you already can do this without an aura giving you help in the Adren side.

this man is getting such good killtimes with the aura that it breaks time itself

@@NexGenration99 If everyone else follows in suit, who knows what chaos would ensue!

XD typos will haunt me forever

This 😂😂

Haha typooooo : (

@@InitYeah It was correct in the previous slide, but the change caught my eye, so I had to.

Yeah Jas book and invigorate is king at rasial, when he said he’s using a grim at rasial I knew his kill times would be slower, but then again equilibrium with zuk book doesn’t sound bad

@@Im_Derks hmm actually didnt think about equilibrium with zuk book 🤔 Only problem with the ring is that my rotation is so set i wouldn't know when to spend the extra necrosis stacks, especially with having less room for non adren builders in LD rotation without invigorate aura

and as i mentioned during the livestream, without crits, what perk (instead of biting) woud be bis for this combo?

Deffo more testing to be done on books and perks, I will likely do this as I plan to use the aura more now :) But I have no idea as of right now which perks would replace biting!

​@@InitYeahI replaced biting with absorbative for now while experimenting. If the bosses attack rate is high, you can replace it with enhanced devoted and stack it with devoted. There's not a lot of offensive armor perks that don't already get utilized, so dropping biting kind of lends towards a defensive perk replacing it. I'm sure if/when more people give Equilibrium a chance that those smarter than me will find a new BiS perk setup for necro. Or if we ever get an equilibrium perk back from the combat beta, then that'll likely be the biting replacement one would assume. Thanks for giving this a test, and I look forward to the theory crafting for this

That is the old effect. It got changed to 12% increased damage but no crit (New effect). Solomon store text just hasn't been updated

Ohhhhh ok thx

It definitely starts on activation. Now that auras don't expire when logged out it's easier to tell. If you log out with 2 minutes left and come back 24hrs later there will still be 2 minutes left but you'll be able to activate it again without a reset once that 2 minutes is up. It'll be off cooldown even though the aura has been active the entire time.

​@melissagrenier2200 it doesn't start on activation. It's that when you log out it starts. If you stayed online it won't start counting until the aura expired.

Which is true, given that it's much cheaper per hour to run and has a much shorter CD, would make it "better" in many cases.

@@zerolosi I agree. The only benefit to Mahjarat + Grim would be setting record times.

Great point

You are comparing other players average times with mine though. You can't take yours or pvme's times for example then go WELL I GET 1:06 ON MAHJ AND ZERK AND THAT IS BETTER THAN INITS EQ AURA. Because you are also getting better times with me on mahj and zerk.. lol. You would have to go test it yourself to get numbers for yourself.

You always needed an aura to do best damage with any combat style but you don't need a combat aura to do anything. If you want to min-max then yea but you don't have to... maj aura kill times are basically within margin of error and you can buy that aura with gp.

​@@maximumeffort6049 Good thing bonds are cheap and you only need 3 bonds to buy mahjarrat :/:/:/:/:/. And then there is the choise to reaper it for 1k points or to just MTX bond it. If its with mtx then you can buy it with "GP". Thats a fucked up system too. Even worse then loyalty points. Why cant I just buy a good combat aura for necro from War's Retreat? This is what happens when you rush a new combat style in the game. Like dint they just released a mid boss lvl for necro? Like 7 months after the release of necro? At least tehy tryed to push nt before the sale... Now look at the state of the game. Its never been in a worse position then it is now. Bit hey if you think the game is healthy then I respect that. But I cant ignore the facts of all the chitt i saw in this game in the past 20 years. This is the worst I have seen the game. And I will call it out. Bc there is a reason why I played this game for 20 years. I hate to watch it burn like this.

@@maximumeffort6049 Maja is 3 bonds dude.Or shuld I just MTX the bods? Its even worsese then the loyalty point system. At least you can buy it for 1k reaper points... Its also a bad system. Whay cant I buy a good necro aura from wars? Like why did a mid necro boss came out 7 moths after necro? They rushed it and it shows in player base. I can go on for a long time like this.... In the 20 years I played this game I never seen this game so broken. Even EOC was in a better state then the game is now. If you dont think so its fine. But dont come to me with that kind of excuus. BC all combat aura shuld be in wars. Just like all skilling auras shuld be at fort forinthry to buy. You can argue that combat dus better bc of wars and for skilling your kinde F. Must be fun to be a new player and to take years to get a lot of important auras.
