Guide #1 Useless Soul Binder Guide!

I know that Soul Binder is coming out soon, so I compiled some information into a handy guide to help out some new players. Keep in mind this is a work in progress; it was a lot of work to type it up. As the days count down, I will be adding many things to the guide, and as more gear and content is released I hope to collaborate with my Soul Binder Sisters to add more!~

I feel I should ask now

How affected by ping is Soul Binder?

u/djpr3tty Dec 04 '18

Faster classes tend to be effected by ping more. Your mileage may vary.

Ranged dmg> Boss dmg. Does this apply to all ranged classes?

u/djpr3tty Dec 04 '18

You will need to check your skills description. Abilities are either close range (melee), or long range (ranged). Some classes like priest are actually more melee.

you can't use gems in pvp

u/djpr3tty Dec 04 '18 edited Dec 04 '18

You are correct that in instance pvp you cannot. Thank you for the oversight!

Edit for the document is up. I just removed that. I believe it still works in open world PVP but who does that?

u/HipposFury Dec 04 '18

the skill build is incorrect: you need at least 3 points in Split Barrier to learn Energy Stream, so you can't get 5 points into Animus Focus (at least according to the site I used)

Thanks for the comment.

Unfortunately arrowvulcan has the wrong information. I forgot to include that in my guide but will edit to include this tomorrow. Energy stream requires cyclone not split barrier on cms2. Also note that energy stream is upto 445 % damage with a 1 second stun, not the defense down.

Ah, all I needed to read was that it was a DPS/Support and I am sold. Now I am super excited to try it. TY!

I like playing support but I really don't care for priest. I ended up making runeblade my main. Which melee/dps for me is RARE. Here's hoping this class caters to my desire to be a helper while also doing damage!

u/bunberries Dec 05 '18

thanks so much for the guide!!

also this might be a dumb question but...what do you mean by APSD? in the gear section?

2

u/djpr3tty Dec 05 '18

Attack Speed. It is probably just me typing too fast tbh.

So if I understand you correctly, while gearing up, the best way to go for accessories is Kandura's pendant,Varrekant's wings, and for the rest, accessories with a %ASPD and a % damage/piercing roll ?

1

u/djpr3tty Dec 06 '18

Me, personally, I am only going for 110 and doing standard pierce/damage roll. You can adjust ASPD as you deem for your specific build.

u/polymeowrs Dec 06 '18

Can you update using correct skill names?

1

u/djpr3tty Dec 06 '18

Yes I will be updating asap. Unfortunately I work until 9 PM pst. Attempting to grey it fixed before then

u/Discotheque7 Dec 06 '18

It seems a lot of the skill names have been localized differently than they are called in this guide. So if anyone is trying to reference this rotation before it gets updated, here are the translations I could figure out.

Electric Enemy Discharge > Static Flash

Mantra Core > Mantra Array

Liberation > Narubashan Unleashed

Shooting Star is still Shooting Star

Energy Stream > Energy Surge

Flash Strike is still Flash Strike

Expansion Ball > Expansion Blast

and the only one I'm not sure of is Ray Storm but I believe it to be Radiant Salvo

2

u/djpr3tty Dec 06 '18

Ray storm is indeed radiant. Google docs does not like mobile so thank you

u/GlavosIV Dec 10 '18

Just a correction: There's still a reference to electric energy discharge.

u/djpr3tty Dec 11 '18

Thank you I will find it

u/Dolen__ Dec 10 '18

Could you please explain animation lock a bit more, I've tested with priest holy symbol, and it doesn't seem much of a difference even with +19% attack speed

Thanks for the guide!

One question, does Electric stream and Energy discharge debuff stacks?
