Another Rimetongue build from me. I wasn’t planning on making a forum post but after revisiting the build together with @mad_lee I decided to post it. Orginally was mostly a crucible glasscannon but with his advice we turned it into a very well-rounded build, one which is also one of my favorites to pilot.
Build is of course based on @thejabrixone’s Rimetongue Infiltrator. I was trying hard to make more changes but that Infiltrator was just too damn well built. Spellbreaker feels like a perfect fit for Rimetongue set though and not relying on the defense of Inquisitor’s Seal allows to utilize Blade Trap and freezes more for crowd control and kiting.
Every new build I see nowadays utilize blade spirits. Wonder if the skill needs another nerf. Nice build btw, good job making squishy spellbreaker working in high SR, though I would softcap mirror.
If I’m not mistaken 6.5s duration * 17% susceptibility = 1.105s
I guess it’s enough for two ticks and @nofika4u spams Blade Trap like there’s no tomorrow while fighting bosses.
[138% base trap res - 55% debuff)
I can see Blade Trap under his feet. He’s very big and almost covers it completely. Also it’s very brief.
Btw His Eldritch shards increase Trap Res even further but I’m mentioning it just as a fun fact because Lee’s not fighting him with shards around.
You can trap all nemesises with Rimetongue, unlike OFF, it’s only weakness are mutators and some purple bosses like Bargoll and Gargabol ( can’t think of other bosses you can’t trap from the top of my head).
PaRappa Trappa (パラッパラッパー), alias PaRappa the Trapper (or simply PaTrappa), is a paper-thin
trapping dude and the titular protagonist of the build thread. His adventures usually lead to difficult situations
which he counters with his catchphrase, "I gotta fish for better mutators!" and pulls through.
Well, BS is one of my favorite skills and I use it in (too) many builds. But I will reluctantly agree that it is maybe a bit too strong.
I think part of it is how easy it is to reach 24/16 BS for extra summon and how easy it is to convert its damage. It’s easily added to any Nightblade builds, unlike guardians or mortars…
I atleast had swift for 160-170 which boost Rimetongue runs a lot, even more so for cold version. But yea build can go super fast with some mutator luck
-“I gotta fish for better mutators!”
Yes I believe so. Im not great at mechanics and never tested Spellbreaker with off-hand, but some enemies are stuck indefinitely so I don’t see why it shouldn’t work for bosses with enough cdr
I’ve watched SR and maybe it’s not such a great idea because Lee is trapping them to a good degree already and seem to be able to kite far more if needed. Perhaps I’ll leave it to some crazy SR pushers to test which they probably have done already.
For Ravager fight the result would be more or less same if Retal threw away Rimetongue set and replaced it with Shattered Guardian, in my opinion. Blade Trap has no use against Celestials .
