I returned after about 2 years and find out there are a lot of new stuffs that increase Gens damage either it is for CC or AB

 

at this moment I just got the Old Midas hat but my damage doesnt seem anywhere close to all other gens (like the diff from 60k to 200k dif on formless/ghost)

 

could you recommend what equipment I should look for?, asuming one set for max CC damage and other set for AB

 

 

Thanks

Hi! Had the same problem when I returned a month back. So many new stuff, but it's not THAT much once you really narrow down the vital stuff.

 

Check all gears HERE

 

First of all, Old Midas Whisper by itself will be a big help, but only when Overupgraded. The new item Cylinder Headband grants +60% more damage to CC as well as reducing its cast time by 100%. Midas grants +15% each 2 upgrades, so it's until +10 that OMW is stronger. Second, the weapon has lots to do too. +15 Crimson Mace seems to be the hot new toy, but I've also heard about Robot Arm, Valkyrie Hammer and trusty old Hurricane Fury still making the news.

 

For other gears, Mob Set (Mob Scarf + Sunglasses/Glasses), Tengu Set (Crow Tengu Mask + Tengu Scroll) and the brand new Seraphim Coronet are the hot debate topic in headgear. It seems to boil down to preferences, set up, style of play and preferred skill. Seraphim Coronet seems to be the winner for many, since it's just Middle Headgear and gives 250 ATK with 120 INT, a stat many Genes already had. Personally, I don't think it's worth the price tag if you're not running more classes that benefit. Even then, not sure. Mob Scarf is great in versatility since no 120 stat is required. Sure, it does not give the biggest boosts, but it gives super good boosts to AB mostly but still it's great for CC. It's what I'm using right now. Tengu set is where it gets different. The set requires 120 STR to work, so many Genes are trying it out. I admit I'm curious too.

FAW's are still in order, but now some roll EA4/2/1 because of Fairy Leaf Powder accessory. It gives bonus damage and After Cast Delay reduction. Another accesory is the Perverse Demon Mask, which gives bonus depending on your stats to other stats. But still, Sapphire Wristbands are still being rocked by many AB Genes and still helps lots with Instacast by Stats when not wearing Cylinder Headband. I like my Leaf Powder and Demon Mask combo. Another option that gets run is the Sarah's Earring with EA1/2 so you can use full EA FAW.

Temporal Boots are still the best ones, just between DEX and STR ones. STR is preferred for pure CC with high ATK weapons and Tengu set, but DEX is still great to AB fast and cut CC cast time. As for the enchants, Lucky Day for general use and Bear Power for when tanking stuff.

 

As far as new damage gears, I think that's the basics. I'm also learning, but that's what I've learnt until now. Do check other threads on damage and set ups discussions. They've helped me a lot.

lets say I want to farm bio 5, what would max my cc damage?

 

atm I just have gotten the +12 old midas, using a meg too, yet my damage its still 60k there while it seems the "standard" for a gene there its like 300k (at least the genes I see that solo there)

Yeah, try to mimic these gears and you too, should be doing OP damage. That guy's movement is so crisp, btw. 10/10

What's you current set up? Remember that depending on the mob and its properties is what damage you're capable of doing. I can dish +400k CC on Amdarais because I can stack up plenty of multipliers (boss, dark, undead, weak to holy), but I cannot get that high a damage on a non boss neutral property mob because my gears don't increase damage on it. In that video he is stacking different types of damage against different mobs.

Erm... just a quick one, might not be really related to OP and didn’t want to open a new thread.

Is +9 Malicious Thanatos Hammer [1] good for CC gene? Just training like from 120 level onward. I have a +9 Triple Kingbirds RTE red but thinking if damage wise, would RTE be better? Considering Thanatos Hammer because it procs leech, which save pot.

[MoyuZ777]

My +9 malicious Thanatos hammer is indispensable for leveling my genes. I would highly recommend it.

[KianS]

Thx thx. I know what to do now, senpai!

If you have access to Pyro, then a mace weapon is a must. Also regarding leech, if you can fund a +10 Evill Dragon Armor, then the leech from the Thanatos weapons is negligible compared to the EDA.

That cost a billion Zeny which I don’t have...

Might have to push my boy in a bottle...

What about blacksmith gloves for the def bypass for AB?

AB already bypass DEF, no need for it
