[Feedback] Rancor needs a nerf - but it needs to be done carefully

Yes and no. I think bleeding builds are “rarer”. But regarding pierce there are maybe 5 viable (and when I say viable, I mean end-game SR 65, crucible 6:30 minimum) pierce builds as of now.

  • Valdun’s
  • Belgo
  • SR set + 2x reaver cadence
  • Firozo’s pierce blade arc (I may be wrong here. @mad_lee)
  • And PB rancor

Well, thanks…but doesn´t help. :smiley:

And I used bad english: With “amount” I wanted to ask, how much RR a typical Pierce Build has. 60, 70 %?
I am still thinking how to make a Pierce (foremost)/Bleeding Hybrid with Rancor. Thought about Conjurer with 100 % Vitality to Pierce conversion, but the RR would be about 20+32+25=77 % (if I could squeeze in Revenant).

Again, depends on your choice of builds. Pierce damage really shines when you can get enough stats for it.

Getting 90ish RR for pierce is usually considered “the gold standard.”

When you say hybrid…you mean with equal focus on both damage types?

Equal is never possible.

I am thinking if it is possible to build a Pierce Build with a fair amount of Bleeding (which has a certain impact). Like all my Bleeding Builds have either Piercing or Physical support for ADctH, this build should have a decent DoT via Bleeding.

Both Shaman and Occultist support Vitality. If I could this made to Piercing (and support it with devotions), I might even squeeze in some Bleeding Damage because Vitality/Bleeding Devotions are roughly in the same direction.

You can try. But it’s going to be extremely tough to get decent %pierce damage.

Problems are solutions in working clothes. :joy:

Sounds like it’s time for you to visit a shrink <3

And the name of the shrink is Doctor Spanksalot. :wink:

Mein kampf, neinnnn :scream_cat:

Are you done your psychological rotation?

You’ll know when I do my psych rotation. You’ll get the best stories :stuck_out_tongue:

I think the best course of action here will be to make a separate variant of Rancor that supports a spam Pierce build. That way we can tune both independently and remove this gimmicky workaround of the penalty.

Thanks so much Z. I really really appreciate this!

There’s no praise Grava emote in the forum, this is a travesty. I don’t have the appriopriate emote to react to good news.

This is the best i could come up with.

Tfw there is no pet version of Rancor :frowning:

We need a praise Zantai emote for threads like this.

It’s alive, it’s alive! I didn’t quote Zantai, cause I am afraid he might change his stance. :slightly_smiling_face:

And no pet version of SR set :frowning:
