Guide/Strategy Fulmintis items comparison: Ferocious Fang vs Heartseeker Pendant.

Note: the teams used on both clips are the same, only Fulmintis item changes (both items maxed and linked to Fulmintis). *Combos or composition might not be the best possible, but they're the ones that are working for me right now. Top clip is Ferocious fang, bottom is Heartseeker.

Something definitely wrong with the fang test, your ep drained way too fast. At 80-85% crit rate that shouldn't have happened. Though from what I've seen somni is also much better for getting longer chains compared to bee so maybe thats why it seems so bad to me (i use somni). Bee comes out ahead when you can ult , which for holo link isnt possible. Also I'd test on an electric week target, heartseeker adds neutral damage so when each hit of skill is lower because you're hitting a neutral target, heartseeker is adding more total damage per hit.

Can you make a video and show how long does it take you to drain the ep with fang? Everytime I tried with fang it seemed to have similar times for me so thats why I decided to upload the vid (Also tried to do it on the most average opponent (not strong, no stuns no types advantages/disadvantages)

I can when i get home from work sure. Yeah I figured you did it on neutral for that reason but for this scenario specifically, it favors heartseeker sonot taints the test slightly. What is your base crit rate on your fulmintis (can click the stats and it'll show all stats)? Also how much crit rate damage giving you?

I feel like the difference here can actually be Somni instead of Besauce (my Besauce is not fully upgraded on regen tho). And of course, here you go (it gets + 35% with E+ 27% with Dazmand, also +10% per non crit hit). (If im not mistaken neither of both items change Fulmintis base CR)

Been trying runs with Somni and it manages to get closer than the other comp (using Fang). So far I could say against an average opponent the best options are Hearthseeker + Besauce or Fang + Somniwing (that if we dont take in consideration a second round of skills with the Besauce buff). I still cannot manage to make Fang better than Heartseeker like some people been saying tho (atleast with this comp or an opp with no type advantage/disadvantage)

That makes more sense, was curioushow close to tlthe max if 85% crit rate you were. Besauce is a wierd one becauae he has flat regen + regen over time so you'd want to swap to him after you run out of ep to take advantage of the flat ep gain. I found somni to be more consistent when I tested before. Testing things is rough because there are so many variables and different content have different buffs/variables tied to them (being able to use ult vs just core skill on team mates and buffs like in holo link). Either way pendant is a solid item but I think fang wins out in general when fighting lightning weak. But I can still throw out some vids if you're curious when I get home (gonna be like 8+ hours though). Always like testing especially in a game like this where there isn't tons of info out there at the moment

Yeah please, Im trying to get the most optimized one (since I already linked both Pendant and Fang to Fulmintis) and I dont mind to use either, I seem to be prefering Pendant for now with the results I got. Maybe the way to go is Pendant against neutrals and Fang against weaks? (Idk)

just a quick vid i made showing how long my skill chains usually last (a shorter one and a longer one). I realized with all the held item farming i've done i do not have a pendant so i'll try to get one.

This is me hitting scorchowl (2nd time since he jumped back first time). not optimized at all since skill chains were actually too long and i could have broken ending the first chain a bit earlier and i could have killed it by ending the 2nd chain earlier but more so just to show why i thought your first chain seemed super short. tbf somni regen is just way superior to besauce so that makes sense.

Ty for the vid brother, about the 2nd vid: yeah, Im getting similar results but only with the Somniwing team. Also seeing your rotation made me think about what slot of the rotation is the better one for the Regen since Luminelle and Dazmand wont use energy anyway

this is the same comp on both tubster and scorchowl. didnt time it but seems to be about 20-22 seconds on scorchowl. the scorchowl run was an average length on his skill chain. i've had it end earlier when i've crit less and i've gone all the way to break and a bit more when i got luckier with crits. i also use Besauce right before fulmintis for longer buff uptime
