well that escalated quickly XD... i think ima take that offer to go read the builds instead lol...



ill formulate the question some other way see if it might clear the air a bit ...


what are YOUR current zealer setups...

zeal vs zeal...

general melee

zeal in pubs.


i want to hear what people use in what situation.

Your math is flawed and your not taking into consideration their crushing blow being inactive

I did. Because no where did I math the crushing blow damage in the damage output



You are just flat wrong. Your DR build to counter CB is a terrible idea

Your math is flawed in understanding how much CB does over a duel

[


Zeal vs zeal

EDC Cham ber viso Phoenix vortex shaft 20/10 15 dex gloves full Angelics. Swap to exile if doing tap duels

Vs barb (Phoenix not allowed)

80/30 P viso with str, SA fort, EDC, Cham SS, steel rends

Vs zon/fury

EbotdZ SA fort, Gface 40/20, SS 40/20, highlords, raven, rare ring or Bk (budget option)

Pubs - you are doing it wrong

With you 25% crushing blow and your opponents zealer with 4000 life, crushing blow does an average of 25 damage per hit with 50% DR

Because:
Crushing blow does 10% of your opponents current life
10% of 4000 = 400
400 x 50% DR = 200
25% activation rate x 200 = 50
50 / 2 = 25
Where 2 is the divider to use for average current life. Where average current life is 2000 bwcwuse 0 + 4000 / 2 = 2000


Congrats on your build that negates 25 average damage per hit

High defense swap for bm zons who use - def skill
Life tap setup for noob dueling
Prudence/fort/shaft setup depending on what opponent is wearing, prudence beats fort, shaft beats prudence etc
A balanced inventory based on what you needs a 25- 50% cth is ideal, never run 37x scs as that’s for the brain dead guys.

Click on opponent, hold shift and it stops at your weapon range. If you see an opponent move to your side mid duel then that duel is nullified as they angled you to cheat.

Zeal is not random, certain dmg taken puts you into fhr aninstion, you’re not just swinging and missing, it’s fhr.

Try to hit 1 zeal out if every 5

Last tip, don’t listen to anyone.
