Hello Sir, have you the time to talk about our Lord and Saviour Blood Fountain? Here is why it's actually a S-Rank spell: 1. Numbers. It's the highest % swing spell in the game (non ult and dpending on how coil is calculated). If we talk Arena, with perfect jewels it potentially swings for up to 385% power (not exactly because the +% isn't calculated with spellpower. It's actually 359%). Sounds insane? It is. Also, why is "infinite suistain" not immediate S-Tier in Arena? In addition, the logic applied to it seems to be a double standard. If V Rising combat is about trading, looking at damage and heal seperately is flat out wrong. 2. Utility. The insane numbers are actually with a build in cleanse (1x) already. If it swings for less, lets say 30% less (~16% actually), it has the option to boost the movement speed 2x by up to 16% for 3s (so 6s in total) - non fading i might add - or a point and click 1.2s fading snare, which is also applyable 2x. Leech is cool. 3. Flexibility. The options mentioned are combinable. Meaning insane swings with very good utility. It also is multiplied when teammates are involved. In addition it is blood-type indepentent and pairs excellent with every school of magic. 4. Healing being bad in ow is a scewed perspective, combining multiple factors from the wrong end. Potions are roughly a 1s cast, immobile and the heal instantly gets interrupted upon taking damage also. Healing spells offer the possibility of constant aggression and the very interruption of a Potion and, therefore, are able to take advantage of the vulnerability of the enemy while he takes or attempts to take one. It's also not like one can't use a potion itself when running healing spells. Point 2 and 3 demonstrate that fountain offers way more than healing in ow too, even offering a insane buff to the best stat in ow; movement speed. 5. It goes through every barrier, counter and shield. You can also combine it very well with Sword Q, countering these type of spells effectively (yes, Discharge knockback considered). Everything above combined makes it an easy S-Tier spell, but I want to close it out with a reference to your point about Blood Rage. It's not like Blood Rage does everything Fountain does but better. I know it's not meant to be taken literally but it's still not true. If anything, it's the other way around. Of course Fountain gives no shield or attack speed but it, funnily enough, gives everything else but "better". It heals for more than double the amount, the speed isn't fading, it provides more unconditional value and actually deals / helps with the most prevalent defenses. Rage does not help against those. I'm not saying Rage isn't as good as you say, it's crazy and I always said it's also better than Power Surge. Fountain is just that crazy too.
@@corxiiifelinike2643 Hi, Counter or Shields. The generic frost counter + dash works extremely well in 1v1 scenarios, it's a bit weaker in clearing Mortium events though. The stronger variant for this would be Discharge + Veil of Chaos. It's different in PvP but a bit smoother when you don't want to change spells all the time. I generally use the Knight Armor set. It feels very good in PvE and also excellent in trading with your enemy blow for blow. Dread Plate looks like a perfect match but it's deceiving from my experience and also only limited to a frost + fountain build. For Ultimates I use whatever I feel like is fun to be honest but luckily Heart Strike is an S-Tier Ult and pairs excellent with this, so it's a go to in all situations. Blood is obviously Rogue for the vast majority in open world, warrior for raiding. Arena it's both, whatever you feel like is needed. Warrior is of course giga tanky in Arena and in open I do like Creature Blood as well, as it is a mix of those two and providing the needed speed. Amulets are turquoise, green or yellow. Feel free to ask more specifics if needed, this is just a general statement.
@@Archpaladinx oh you’re playing a different play style altogether. I’m more of a scholar player. I don’t know if blood fountain can be used in a scholar type build. If I’m playing a scholar blood type build, what spells do you think are the best?
not yet although we've had an announcement of a balance patch coming in hopefully the near future 👀 should shake things up fingers crossed so Ill talk about things again after that
