Ehhhhhhhhhhhh No.



This means I'm close. To home.



Very close.

Excited to see what you can do at LK! Great progress as usual. Keep it up

finally there! hope you have the luck of fanta

Very nice WT, but I don't get all the fuss about some monstrously huge defense base for Treachery.
The entire point of it is proc'ing the Fade and having as much up time on it as possible. Defense is counterintuitive for this goal.

You will notice the chance to miss difference between a 300 def and a 400 def armor.

It's one of the reasons I advocate defiance mercs on caster builds.


That isn't why seb in particular cares about ebug bases, but defense is very important in HC.

It's more so the difference between <100 and >1000. (a very basic base compared to a high end ethereal bugged base)
I'd much rather have NO trouble proc'ing Fade than more defense. Having your Mercenary die is potentially much more dangerous than having him get hit more often, when he's built correctly anyway.

15k def forti mercs have no trouble proc'ing chilling armor, do they?

Not really a great comparison, especially considering how much more important Fade is than Chilling Armor.
The majority of life threatening attacks in the game are elemental damage or Curse situations. Fade is considerably good against both of those.

Fade lasts for almost 5 mins, and unlike chilling armor (which negates missles entirely), you're twice as likely to get hit with something.

Also, consider the fact that being hit less = less jab frames being interrupted due to fhr = more dps uptime.
