Soulfist -2.8% dmg

???

Soulfist is really strong in our version of the game

this documetation is not done is just the start

at 1650 on spec u will have 14.6 downtime on a boosted hype that lasts 20 sec:)
20 sec doesn’t get boosted
as the boosted dmg reaches 120% for 20 sec, with the 14.6 downtime, u will get probably more dmg if u use a dmg multiplier engraving, robust spirit is additive to hype, not a multiplier

im 1460 still outperforming my alts

Don’t forget for EO Soulfist that we also got a huge nerf because they removed the pet trick awakening animation skip.

Our dominion relic buff reset now takes a few seconds, which can be really bad during a fight as you are mostly dependent on your conviction / judgement proc (on hype 2).

Definitely a huge nerf as well. This was shadow patched at Scouter class release.

Soulfist is OP AF atm, so they nerf her.
And it’s just 2,8 because the class itself is in minority and SG doesn’t want to decrease SF population even more.

Don’t listen to that Spulberizer BS. One of our guildmate is playing SF and he has CRUEL most of the time. When boosting guild alts through oreha hard he burns seto down in phase 1 and albion before he pops star mechanic.

If you’re not satisfied with yours it’s probably some build or gameplay flaw.

you should compare characters at the same level at the right difficulty

Pretty much the whole guild is equally geared.

are you serious? that’s what i am seeing “a build” that’s the problem why is decreasing dmg for all skills and not on some skills, so we can freaking have more to choose from different playstile

sry, i understand the word wrong
my sf 1460 deals less DPS than lower lvl alts, and was like that on each Tear

you’re doing something not optimal then, maybe you need more practise.

The nerf is indeed cause of gear we dont have yet.
But this will not turn her into complete trash…

Yes if u played the class a lot and know when to pop and cancel hype its possible to get consisntent cruel/MVP and it should be like that.
Issnt that the point of playing a DD well?
That dont make her OP and needs no nerf.
Why sorc doesn’t get a nerf as well then?
depending on raid/boss i have a realy hard time even to get close dmgwise to my equally geared ignitersorc buddy. it mostly comes down to a fully buffed crit on first/second spiritbomb. assumed both of us having close to flawless rotations during the fight. (speaking of RO SF, were both 1500+ 5x3 and 9ergems on maindps skills)

But its odd they wanted to make the class more versatile eg. ended up with a flat +7% excluding awakening. Now -2.8% including awakening. straight up a nerf for robust, not that much but it is one. They shoud have gone more into the skills and possible rotations. It would help a lot giving SF critsyn or extend energyreleaseduration by 1 sec. would take such things over a flat dmg increase/decrease anytime :slight_smile:

wut. I wouldn’t call her easy to play. This class can be very punishing. Literally any skill except of energy blast has no protection. And the “hard” hitting stuff is close combat.
Things you have to keep in mind as a RS Soulfist:

  1. You need to anticipate the boss movement or you will waste 30+ second damage
  2. Don’t get hit while performing either shadowbreak, energy release or Merciless Pummel. Otherwise your damage is close to zero

I mean I do enjoy the class but I really don’t get the nerf. Then I switch to my striker and i am getting a 130% mult buff for 4 orbs that i can fill up with 1 1/2 skills :D. Blasting 100+ millions (if crits) every 20 seconds.

The only way to get a chance of mvp is when all my spirit bombs crit during raid or with the new mvp screen if i outperform with counters.

Why you guys even talk about soulfist in general?
Energy Overflow and Robust Spirit is a completely different gameplay.

First is fast skill spammer, second one relies on Awakening that has fked up casting time.

I understand why EO got nerfed, but why Robust has to suffer in the process? We have to wait with awakening till boss gets staggered. And then still timing is tight. Especially if we concider that Hype has to be still on when that bomb finally hits the target.

At least take away 2 sec out of that awakening or switch it to holding attack so we can decide if we want to cast it earlier with not fully charged dmg.

Ppl saying “Soul fist is strong in our version” could say “Perfect Suppression is strong in our version” i bet.

Right now in KOREA, soul fist is one of the best class.
On our version, it’s barely middle tier.

As someone said above, it’s trash until Bracelet first, and then Brel hard.

It’s not 1445 it’s when they get bracelets that they become cracked. Once soul fist goes over 1800spec with lvl3 ancient they become a god.

It is fine, calling it trash is just stupid.

I think the complain comes from other “OP” dmg dealers isnt touch.
Then again KR is famous for nerfing SF even thought “nobody” plays it.

Anyway KR players was like ??? you want to nerf EO sf why did you also nerf RS also?

/peace

I still like to have Soulfists in my groups , who cares about mediocre dmg instead top tier , her Group synergy and kit is the reason you take the soulfist isnt it ?

RS is fine wdym?

I main SF RS and have EO alt and even after patch I compete in the top with sorc for mvp

So if you are suffering from low dmg or perception of low or mediocre dmg from soulfist then you have room to improve

1550 eo soulfist
at current stage, soulfist can be strong however heavy investment is required.
must have 1600+ swiftness and lv10 cd gem on energy release.
also same as gunslinger, you have to invest on 4-6 individual damage skills including gems and tripods.
necklace and rings were affordable back to months ago, but now they are expensive, and the problem is you couldn’t find +5 eo with +3 grudge/ ad/ IM/ RC, combined swiftness.
the difficulty to play eo soulfist is average, depend on when you turn on lv3 hype.
btw, her mobility is No.1 in the game
