Returning to the game and noticing our much Focus I can get from Thrax I decided I’ll do a little grinding and collect all the Way-Bound powers. In doing that, and nabbing the out of Duviri relevant intrinsics, I’ve noticed I really don’t need the Arcanes I’ve been using. Zenurik covering my need for Emergence Renewed & Vazarin covering my need for Magus Replenish.

I’ve heard pairing Magus Melt & Accelerant is pretty powerful but I’m not sure that I want to convert my damage types as I like the Void status proc & the stronger Overguard strip.

Also, how’re my AMP Arcanes? I think these are pretty good… doesn’t work perfectly when funneling all Focus into the Way-Bounds and have no actives in my current school for Eradicate.

    As mentioned already, magus melt will definitely be an upgrade (210% increase to total damage).

    If you are using specifically klamora, I’d consider swapping Virtuos strike for Eternal Logistics, as it will add 70% total up time. That’s 70% more damage per mag.

    In comparison, your Virtuos strike with 7x7 amp will add an average 63% damage while active. 58% damage if your using 7x3. (using the dmg * (1+cc * (cd -1)) = avg dmg equation)

    Although it’s up to you if you want higher burst damage

    Also btw if you’re in the Zariman, Raplak prism has more dps against void angels and thrax if you have good headshot aim due to klamora having a wide angle making headshots difficult (and pairs well with virtuos shadow rather than logistics) though I would recommend klamora instead in the Undercroft.

      My current amp is Cantic/Certus/Phahd which has replaced my previous amp of Klamora/Propa/Certus. The shorter range of the Klamora made Cascade harder so I made the new one and really love the glaves I’ve got with it now.

      I’ve got a Raplak/Pencha/Lohrin which I haven’t touched since returning… IIRC I used it for hunting Eidolons prior to the release of Zariman. Might give it a try again sometime but I like the 3-shot burst from Cantic. I’m starting to get good at making it hit multiple rifts.
