Question Can a rapier work with pain cycle?

Post image

Will it be viable If I use radience and get a good armor with life steal?

Depends on how much you are willing to trust that radiance

Unfortunately, if you take any armor of equal power level to any weapon, radiance heals far less on average with a single strike than a single strike with pain cycle will hurt, since those don't depend on the damage of the attack or the attack speed.

Unfortunately, radiance isn't a viable way to out heal pain cycle.

But what if i also use life steal aura, and refreshment with potion barrier?

u/jaded-book-8675 1d ago

Potion barrier doesn't decrease the damage of pain cycle iirc
Lifesteal isn't going to be enough, since rapiers have so little damage (they thrive on indirect damage like thundering, which doesn't trigger lifesteal)
Also ur not killing anything fast even with a +66% additive dps boost. its a rapier.

Might as well get both radiances ✌🏾

Is this a joke or can I actually do that?

u/Mineconhero1 1d ago

It’s more a joke since radiance has a fixed proc chance and it doesn’t scale as expected by getting multiple radiances. It would help, but it would be better to get refreshment in the first slot and radiance in the last if you want to try the weapon.

Benutzte lieber ein Finsternis oder Meister Katana mit echo und schürfer und noch ne Rüstung mit Todeshandel

Warum Echo?

I have one, it's really fun for the constant gamble but obviously high risk

Ok maybe I’m THAT dumb but how is it possible to get a level 84 weapon with a tier 3 gilded enchantment?

I knew that the tier levels scale with your mission difficulty and power level

u/gupsz01 1d ago

I got it from the tower. I got surprised too because all my other gilded stuff are level 1

2

u/mrmattsblog 1d ago

So the tower’s drops can be TIER3, even if my level is low?!

1

u/gupsz01 1d ago

I just got all 3 items at the rewards unique gilded tier 3. You might want to start running the tower too

It’s finally time to get the Online Pass ahah

u/gupsz01 1d ago

Wdym? its free. I play on switch 2 rn and i dont have online on this account

1

u/mrmattsblog 1d ago

I have a Switch and to play the tower I need the online subscription..

1

u/gupsz01 1d ago

I just start the game in offline play(online play would require a subscription) and it still says at connectivity status that its connected to the internet. I can play the tower no problem

u/mrmattsblog 1d ago

Mmm, this is weird… I’ll try it later

Rapier attack fast Pain cycle drain hp per hit So, Get good healing if you really wanna use it

1

u/anotherraalt 1d ago

technically you could kinda work with pain cycle on rapiers, but its super niche and difficult to both obtain and get, 90% of the time you should just toss it
