Why do I keep getting rejected in groups?

That’s enough. Only 3 skills are high-burst dmg and have lowest cd (9s -12s).
Other skills have weak dmg, their purpose is to fill the gauge.

No dps
Rng class
Low defence

Other?

They need cd gems for smoother rotation

OP, you keep getting rejected because of people like the guy I quoted who are ignorant about the class.

Poundtown its not about be “ignorant about the class”
What u see a Korean dude do million of damage with arcana does not mean nothing!
If i have to choose between arcana and any other dps, ill choose other dps class in my party.

The second you say RNG class you might as well just put a post-it note on your forehead that says “ignorant” on it.

  1. Pve players are gatekeeping nerds.
  2. People dont know anything about arcana. The amound of dumb shit ive read in this thread about the class made by very dumb/misinformed people is sad.

7lvl cd gems give only 1.8s - 2.4s red. cd

Yeah. That is what a smoother rotation requires. cooldown. Many times when I play empress arcana I have to wait a bit because of my cooldowns. These gems + swiftness help that.

Can I guess? You are an Arcana player.
Sadly the class is a bit based on RNG. Not like that it can f you up hard but it has RNG. Thats a fact. Hate it or not.
Squishy melee mage + rng + hard to master + average bad player → no invite. End of the story.

Can I guess? You’ve never spent more than 2 minutes researching Arcana.

Go hit a training dummy for 2 minutes as Arcana. Do it over and over. Tell me how much your damage varies. I’ll answer it for you, it’s not going vary much. Like pretty much every other class.

There is a big difference between saying:

Empress arcana = melee mage with lots of built in mobility.
Emperor = ranged mage with little mobility.
Both are hard to master
Both have had too many bad players play them showing how bad arcana can be
RNG is a factor but not as much as you think

Full random dmg = RNG

If you play it play it. I dont really care.
I wont invite Arcana or Berserker. Never. But we wont play together anyway, so it doesnt matter.
If you enjoy it, its fine. Have fun with her.

My first thought when i looked at your build was why only 3 gems. I don’t know much about arcana since i don’t have one but even if other skills doesn’t deal much damage wouldn’t at least equiping cd gems and even some level 5 damage gems would improve overall output but quite a bit?

you don’t know anything about arcana and it shows.

It’s not “full random damage”

For instance my Arcana using no cards will do like 1.4m DPS baseline, and then cards will add 100-250k dps depending on RNG. Usually around 150k.

Arcana need 3 damage gems and 8 cd gems. Other than the 3 damage gems for the red skills no other damage gem is required. The dps of the other 5 skills are less than 10% of the total damage. cd gems are there to smooth out the rotation so you are not sitting there doing nothing.

Only lvl 56 when Arcana absolutely needs lvl 60 to be played to perfection; she needs every single one of those skill points to be viable. That’s the only reason you are getting rejected on top of being Arcana itself.
