So… I know that maxroll, syvo, the community summoner guide etc… all say to use Akir for your elemental orb spending.
And Im going to assume Im wrong because these guys have been playing a lot longer and are much smarter…
But I have to ask or pose the question… what about Phoenix? In the time it takes to get enough orbs for Akir, I could almost have two Phoenix’s based on rotation. My phoenix’s are critting 3.8-6 million depending on self buffs alone. In groups, my akir is hitting 10-12 million but takes a bit longer to get going and rotation doesn’t feel as smooth.
What are your thoughts? Again, I know Im likely wrong but I just want some explanation why Phoenix isn’t used more. Its easier to get out, can get it out more often, smooths out the rotation much more IMO, and two of these guys pump out almost, or as much damage as one akir.
can you clarify which build you play and what stats you use ?
because the spec build, gains so much meter that you can use akir every rotation with 1700 spec
swift build does not use akir all the time only
swift build uses whats ready or what purpose you have that moment , like do you need stagger , do you need destruktion , or just dmg and whats the dmg window you have afterwards or which mechanic is coming
You are missing something if you struggle to get akir up. Like the other guy said you will have it every rotation you don’t even need a full rotation to get it. You are missing spec or wealth runes or have the wrong skils/tripods.
Pheonix is only really used for chaos farming because you can literally just spam it none stop and clear in seconds. Summoner might be the best chaos farming class in game honestly lol
First off the pet build uses the 2nd summon since it benefits from pet dmg and it also is used to cancel ancient spear.
Usually people recommend at least 1650 spec and +9 gems.
After that you can do some fancy stuff, like tripple akir.
