Hey all! I hope you're enjoying Tahiti!

This is my spin on Angela. I used to dislike the hero, until I understood how she worked. In this setup I want to build Heaven's Wrath to full for Angela's Rage of Asgard buff (2:1) and line that up with her Signature cooldown for maximum burst!

 

Rotation/Priority:

Objectively we are building our Heaven's Wrath (spirit) to max and letting our sig rip. If your Heaven's Wrath is empty upon entering combat, just let it rip and go on cooldown. Finding your sweet spot with an amount of Heaven's Wrath and lining that up with your sig cooldown is key. Reductions to spirit cost will reduce your sig, so we want to aim for that 50%, or at least line it up with your current Heaven's Wrath pool.

 

While generating Heaven's Wrath:

• Hold down  to generate Heaven's Wrath

• Use  on cooldown since it generates Heaven's Wrath and has a lower cooldown

• Use   afterwards

Once your Heaven's Wrath is full:

• Let  rip!!!!
• If your sig is within a few seconds, just keep spamming  until it's ready

• If your sig is more then 4 seconds out, just use  for single target or  for AoE. We want to avoid much uptime going to waste

• Optimally, you use a medkit during Rage of Asgard to slightly extend the duration

• Avoid dashing during Rage of Asgard as this eats your Heaven's Wrath

• You can also swap  for  or  to gain more AoE at a small loss for single target. Rotationally, they are all in the same position

 

 Alternative Gear Choices:

 

Slot 1:  

• Angela's slot 1 does a fine job until you get your hands on a fragment

Slot 2:  

• Angela's slot 2 is an ok placeholder, but a cosmic would be much better and High commander's armor is up there as well

Slot 3: 

• Use this if you are struggling to reach 50% cost reduction, or if you don't have access to a reserve generator artifact

Slot 4: X

• Angela's own slot 4 is incredible. Prioritize the cost reduction until your timing feels right

Slot 5: X
• Angela's own slot 5 is incredible.

Ring:  

• A cosmic ring with BSR/+3 Durability would be an increase to damage, but it wouldn't outweigh the defensive boost from a sling ring. An ICP (physical or melee) ring can be a placeholder.

Medallion:  

 • Go ahead and use the S6 medallion if you're ahead on Heaven's Wrath generation. Use the Magneto medallion if you're way behind on cost reduction. 

Artifacts: 

• All viable options if you can't use the top 4, where the reserve generator takes the highest priority. Timing on siege's proc can be wonky to track, given we aren't stacking power duration.

 Legendary: 

• i70 option

Insignia: 

• All viable options. Just look for some form of CDR+ CHR/BSR. You can also make up some Heaven's Wrath here. 

 

 Infinity Points:

 

1.) TIme Gem - Temporal Loophole 38 points

2.) Mind Gem - Deep thought 65 pts (good starting place. Max if needed)

3.) Mind Gem - Mental Focus 150 points 

4.) Power Gem - Strike Through 75 points

5.) Space Gem - Durability 6 points

6.) Reality Gem - Potency 150 points

Now that some +1 attirbute bonuses are unlocked, feel free to dump points into:

• Mind over matter (6) in Mind Gem

• Max out Temporal Loophole in Time Gem

• 1 point into each damage proc. They are on the right side of each gem

• Dump the rest into Durability in Space Gem

 

Talents/Traits:

 

Row 1: While 1:3 may look appealing, it doesn't hold up to 1:2

Row 2: This is the bread and butter of the spec

Row 3: Here is where you may have a conundrum with damage or timing. 2:2 offers a tremendous amount of damage with 10% crit that we basically maintain the entire time, but 2:3 can drop 6 seconds (ish) off of your sig. The only reason you would opt out of 10% crit is if you have a very low Heaven's Wrath pool and require a much shorter cooldown for your sig.

Row 4: While 4:2 sounds good on paper, 4:1 is just too much damage to pass up and 4:3 is being applied with 1:2

Row 5: 5:3 allows us to use the hardest hitting part of the sig three times.

 

Cost Reduction Sources:

 

• 15% From cosmic artifact affix

• Up to 10% from Angela's Slot 4

• 5% from Loki Synergy

• Up to 10% from Reserve Electrical Generator artifact

• 10% from the 100 point mind gem mastery

• Cost reduction from Energy stat, which are gained through +1 all stats bonus. Don't chase Energy.

• Up to 22% from Magneto medallion

• Up to 10% from S.H.I.E.L.D.Recon belt slot 3 

Additional Notes:

 

• Highest prio is finding a Heaven's Wrath pool size that matches up with your sig ccooldown. Rage of Asgard has a set decay rate (10%/sec), so we opt for a higher pool to fit more attacks in that window.

• My heaven's Wrath is set at 1790 with a 17 sec sig. Your sweet spot may be different. Try some different combinations!

• Cost reduction maxes at 50%, anything beyond that is a waste.

• You'll have some heavy swings with TTK due to brutal luck with your sig. Feel free to play around with stat and talent (row 3) allocation to see what works best for you.

• Cost reduction on cosmic slot 2/3 doesn't seem worth it. Neither does the line for generating an orb granting Heaven's Wrath.

• Feel free to hit me up in game or on twitch (Imahuntudown906) with any questions. 

• Thank you for reading and I hope to see you out there raging out!
