This is the build I use and it's awesome. Also, I have to commend you on how the video was nicely edited. I also love the transition of the scenes and the way it synced with the audio. Kept me interested 'til the last scene. :D
hey there, im new to the game and i have somewhat trouble to understand your choice of crafted affixes for your Catalyst. Crit chance and dmg rating makes sense, but deflect and dmg against stuff attacking me? i would appreciate it if you could enlighten me :)
Cosmic Ultron Beam Artifact. Does it matter if it is energy dmg or mental or whatnot? I mean .. 20hp per hit doesnt sound alot to me. correct me if im wrong.
Nah, don't worry about going out of your way to get one with the right damage type to regenerate health. I'm not 100% sure, but I believe that health on hit has a cooldown where it can only proc about once a second, so an ability like Photon Minigun isn't going to regenerate a bunch of health even though you are hitting for a lot more than once a second.
even then 20hp per hit doesnt sound alot of me thats like the main reason why i asked xD well then there is no point in farming another one. thanks again!
trying to sort out my cosmic artifact cosmic affixes and been wondering why you picked 2k health while in combat instead of something else like signatur cd reduction etc?
2 reasons. I prefer 2k health over 4 seconds less on my dog cd. I also don't use the 15% sig reduction because having my signature come in increments of 30 seconds helps line it up with groot's 1 minute duration. It's a good idea to use your signature before you summon groot to make sure your catalyst and cosmic insignia buffs are snapshot onto your groot for his full duration. If you have a 26 second cool down, you either have to delay your Second hadron or risk not snapshoting groot.
I was refering to chest piece, 2nd slot. R&R is at 54% crit chance without it. Im just saying that 850bsr chest might be better choice to bump bsr to 45% instead of 2% crit chance from already high crit
Great build, im loveing it made me love RR even more ! Just one question ? Do you rly have energy cosmic ueb ? xD Mate i did 100 ultron runs today, literaly, still none cosmic energy one, droped 2 mental cosmic, 1 str normal and some trash art ....
I always thought that you could have any combination of each stat. In this case, the bis stat choice for chest would be Crit Strike, Brut Damage, and Crit Damage instead of Int, Crit, and Crit Damage.
I'll make the necessary changes to the list and build.
Random question. Switching over to playing the console version and without team-ups to apply the 10% vulernability what would you suggest doing? Skipping Hadron for Gravity? Skipping the vulerability entirely? Skipping Time and using Gravity and Laser Drill?
If you want pump out the most damage, you can either switch out Suppression Turret for Gravity Mine, or you can exchange Essence of Jinn for Cobra's Hood. Both of these are viable ways to apply vulnerability. If you have a well-rolled Cobra's Hood then I would use that to apply Vulnerability. However, if you like Gravity Mine for the it's capability to apply instant aoe vulnerability then I would take out Suppression Turret for Gravity Mine in that scenario.
Dumb question for you. Looking at my character stat sheet in game 150pts of Mental Focus raises my CDR from 13,588 to 13,648. 150pts in Intelligence takes me from 13,588 to 14,008. I'm certain your reasoning is sound for your choice and I'm missing something not readily obvious. Why are you taking Mental Focus over Intelligence?
Mental Focus gives a flat percentage rather than an amount of rating. You have to hover your cursor over your Critical and Brutal Damage Ratings to see the difference in percentage. Every point of Intelligence you are getting is also increasing you Critical Damage Rating by 60, which is why you are seeing more rating with Intelligence than Mental Focus.
Honestly, the dps difference between Intelligence and Mental Focus is very small. The higher your crit, the more value Mental Focus will be. If your crit is on the lower side, Intelligence will start to become more favorable.
For most cases it is.. but only slightly. CCR is actually right on par with it and you might not notice a huge difference if you are comparing with Upgraded Time Dilator. If you already have a leveled CCR than just stick with that.
Where the Trident shines is in the procs and the +summon health. The +summon health is especially important if you are speed farming skrull bounties. You want to make sure your turrets live long enough to kill the mobs that they tanking. The +Health is also important for CDR farming.
He Adds Vulnerability which is an extra 10% damage on enemies affected.
One thing I've been playing around with is using Cobra's Hood and then having whatever teamup you want. This way you'll have a decent way way to apply vulnerability without putting Gravity Mine on your bars. This way you can use JJ or w/e teamup you want without sacrificing vulnerability. The only downside to this is that your summons won't apply the vulnerability from Cobra's Hood if you are mass farming instances; you will still need to use your non-summoner abilities to apply Cobra's Hood vulnerability.

For some reason, the catalyst likes to assign random stats whenever I make a change to the gear layout or enchants/blessings.
