@sumyounguy
I think it would be multiplicative due to skills like corsairs eight legs easton getting 20% would increase damage per sec from 2360%-2440% if additive, whilst a skill like ishtars ring would go from 1760%-2080%. This will mean a very unfair advantage to classes which hit fast at low %'s compared to slow hitting classes with high %'s

@Laika: Yeah you pretty much wont have to use it as long as your DF doesnt drop to 0 some how like other posters said.

[quote=Ravens]Actualy they have the passives on b-step and other such things are all multiplicative[/quote]

That's news to me. I was under the impression it was +20% onto the skill not +20% total damage of the skill. Although I would like more proof.

Mmm just witnessed two mature men resolve an argument on basil, today is a good and rare day

@ajwright92: @sumyounguy: Yea I was reading Max's blog and was wondering that too.
If yes then I'll probably never have to use lash! wheeee no more finger smashing.

[quote=KingsGlory]@sumyounguy: I will admit i did not react in the best way.[/quote]

Well let bygones be bygones. If you were offended then I apologize.

@laika Doesn't actually say the cost it just says it regens dark force. Here's the skill description right from max's blog.

A huge demon is summoned to steal the souls of up to 8 enemies in front of you, dealing 450% damage 6 times while ignoring 50% of the monsters' defense. On boss monsters, your damage is increased by 50%. After attacking, regain 50 Demon Force. There is a cooldown of 5 seconds. The maximum damage for this skill is 9,999,999.

Depends on if you perceived it as rude or not which you did. I could have made my statement milder but I wasn't calling you any names or putting you down was I?

Hypocritical statement. Of course you wouldn't reply when you were so wrong in the first place.

@gargantula2 Yeah that's the kind of damage you expect on bosses when unfunded with maxed out str. Honestly he isn't weak at all with that kind of output with no effort. Just weak if you considered that funded.

I feel like demon slayers have gotten buffed so much in this update. They almost never have to use lash again, since a) all skills had df usage reduced, b) boundless rage (endless fury?) last longer, c) blue blood makes skills use even less df, and d) cerberus refills your gauge.

[quote=KingsGlory]the 20% dmg hyper doesnt make it 340% it makes it 384%.[/quote]

The damage is additive not multiplicative. I don't why the hell you would think it works that way when maple has never increased damage by insane amounts like that or worded it in that fashion.

[quote=ramenrulz]@KingsGlory not 20% of the %320 its 20% of your range. So you would add it.[/quote]

pretty sure it's 20% of the skill damage. can you show me evidence that it's otherwise?

[quote=sumyounguy]No it doesn't make a difference because with the demon impact hyper it adds 20% dmg making it 340%. It's only level 155 required to get that so this is applicable to all the DS's in the vid. The 196 DS is unfunded his damage seems exactly how it should be with crappy gear.[/quote]

@ajwright92: I actually like lash and would use it too. He probably was used to using lash because he was use to the former play style.

[quote=sumyounguy]@ramenrulz: Yeah they most likely put in the CD to stop the abuse of using a meta that doesn't DR. I'm glad they took the CD down to 90 seconds though it makes it less of a hassle then to wait for it to fully disappear.

@above I think all DS videos are welcomed.[/quote]

I added it with the other ones , im surprised the guy actually used lash a bit.
In a way since we can spam DI its like we have a sort of transformation.

Lol 60 sec.... what a tease I found a hilla vid of a 200 DS idk if you guys would want to see it tho.
These videos make me sorta of happy for deciding to refund my DS. I was gonna make a kaiser but I found myself gettting addicted to DS's status resist and Animations.
Not to mention the ability to protect your own maps when training.

@ramenrulz: No it's not. Joetang calculated it being 11.1 hits/sec vs DI doing 11.48/sec.

[quote=sumyounguy]Meta buffs are by far superior to that of carrion. If you are doing more hits per sec with demon impact+meta than you are with carrion+meta there is no point in giving carrion any attention (refer to joetangs warrior comparison thread on southperry). For me, I don't see a reason to get any of the carrion hypers due to the fact that carrion is not used during 1v1 scenarios because of points mentioned earlier.[/quote]

Hmm good point I dont even find myself using carrion now honestly . Not to mention the extra boss dmg and ignore def from DI that carrion doesnt have. Ill stick to Impact/Meta Hypers then , Still confused about the small orb animations from Meta/blue blood are they just place holders?

[quote=ajwright92]@ramenrulz Yeah that basically what I was thinking when it comes down to lash, like you said only if you hit 0 df or so. Yeah I'm currently 113k range at lev 195 atm, I still have to max mw at 10 atm. So i dont think id be capping on Carrion breath either way.
Im a bit confused about the new meta though, in the animation whats with the new 3rd dark orb with wings, and its another one with blue blood . Whats that about?

@sumyoungguy So do you think If we dont max any of the carrion breath buffs we could infact be able to max all of the DI passives and meta buffs? Thats really one of the things that confuses me about the hyper skill points.[/quote]

[quote=ajwright92]I had a feeling that's what you were talking about I wasn't really sure . Yeah your right.
Btw Which passive hyper skills would you advise maxing?
Would Lash even be worth using anymore since we can basically spam DI/Cerberbus?[/quote]

I'm most likely going to get all the demon impact and meta ones because they seem the most useful. I was reading on southperry that the carrion breath spam even at max damage isn't as good as using demon impact because of the cast delays on it. I don't think lashing will even be necessary because of cerebrus so yeah lash is pointless now unless you somehow use up all your force.

What I generally consider unfunded is all clean/low leveled items.
In the video description the user claimed to be unfunded so I just assumed he was unfunded.
