I think I’ve discovered a viable CT levelling strategy.
The pic is level 20.
Basically:
- 1/16 CT ASAP for Reincarnator boss fight.
- It takes level 8 to reach Inferno and level 9 to have some points in it. Before this I was levelling with Fireblast as it became available.
- Inferno is much less punishing when it comes to damage vs energy cost. Same principle of why you should onepoint Phantasmal Blades and max the Heart-Seeker instead, but it’s less obvious in this case. Specifically because AoE is tied to the main skill, so this levelling method means you’re stuck with minimal AoE.
- It still doesn’t mean that you won’t be running of energy, 1/16 CT and 12/12 Inferno is 44 energy cost baseline, which is close to the upper threshold of what I feel is manageable for a spam skill that early into the game.
- Still making a rush to Mental Alacrity so that I could start bumping the main skill for more AoE and better quality of life.
- But at least it’s good enough to be called viable and it’s quite neat in terms of how you do with skillpoints.
- Ofc worse than Forcewave
- Time to Warden clear is smth like 1:15, even though I pretty much planned everything in advance.
