Looks solid now let’s roll it…wait a minute : how do i reduce their chaos resists? Curse of frialty = negative doesn’t have chaos reduction, so what? devotions ofc, solael’s witchblade give me 20% chaos reduction capped but is this enough? I have some doubts about it on my warder i can punch cause with devouring swarm i lower their vit res 80% +.
Long story short : i’d really like to roll this but i can’t figure out good way to lower their res? Anyone could jump in with some suggestions?
You can try using Solael’s Flame from Symbol of Solael component. It reduces target’s resistances by 30%, although its mostly single target and can’t be used for devotion skills.
i know solael’s flame but i never used it : the text says it lower resists for 1 second but the skill duration is 8 second. It’s quite confusing anyone with direct experience of it could explain how it works?
edit : i put symbol of solael on a random weapon and cast solaele flame on the dummy, the broken shield icon (the one which indicates reduced res debuff) lasts for the entire 8 seconds of skill duration. So yeah it seems to work like this still : 30% from materia and 20% from devotion would be nice and they should stack cause they are -x% kind.
I personally use the ‘‘Terror’’ relic, which adds up to your chaos damage, while also allowing you to cast Terror which reduces all resistances by 25%.
E: While also using Solael’s onto my Blade Arc.
Also Solael’s is like a plague, it spreads from one enemy to another. So no, it is not single target.
-Manticore is now flat reduced resistance, not %reduced resistance.
-Solael’s Flame does not spread to enemies, that’s Eldritch Flame. Solael’s Flame does have a tiny AoE.
-Solael’s Flame is %reduced resistances, not -x% resist.
-Solael’s Flame not working with devotions will hopefully get fixed soon.
