Elegant Angelic Buster!

Hi, i'm Mingela (Ming + Angela)!

My in-game name is Elegant and I play in Khroa.
I'm one of the top ABs in Khroa: 1) Because no one plays ABs; and 2) No one plays ABs.
Which also means I get top time in Mu Lung Dojo (by default because no other AB does Mu Lung Dojo).
Anyways, I was wondering what I could do to improve my time.
Although I am #1 in Job rankings, I don't make it to top 50 in Overall Rankings.
I have 225% Boss Damage; 88% PDR ; 1.5m~1.7m range and my time is around the five minute mark, take or give, which is... pretty bad.

Usually what I do is:
1)Full Buff
2)Enter
3)Trinity EVERYTHING
4)Rebuff from time to time.

Is there any better way to decrease my Dojo time?

Also, I am dreadful, absolutely dreadful, at bosses. (don't laugh.)
Any bossing tips specific to Angelic Busters and for Angelic Busters on specific bosses?

This is also my first ever Basil Post! (Just joined yesterday)
So be nice!

Tysm in advance <3 & have a good day~

P.S. I also know that there probably is a thread that is similar or answers all my questions, please kindly refer to it and/or just answer my questions ^^. ty~

Didn't even know there was an alternative to getting it. c; hahaa
Now that I think about it... I think I gave/threw away some unique pensalir gloves.. T_T
& to know that you have 4m~5m range and time around 4:3x makes me feel a little better but it also doesn't because you would think that 3m-4m range increase would dramatically decrease your dojo time :c

@dreanburster

Please do <3 I would like to be on the top 50 overall ranking for my world

@straatlamp: I like that last one. Do that one @Mingela

Once I have the time, I'm gonna start testing AB dojo optimization, because my dojo time is also driving me crazy.

@mingela:

Yup! I mean, while Angelic Busters do perform terribly in terms of Dojo, we're actually pretty decent-ish when it comes to actual bossing so there's that

As for the DSI gloves, if you don't want to spend the 5-6b (not to mention it's pretty hard to find someone selling them), I'd recommend buying a cheap unique pair of pensalir gloves and then cubing that during miracle time! Once you tier them up to legendary, rolling SI isn't too hard (at least in my experience).

I don't really know what my range is, I'm guessing it's around 4-5m, but that's with the loads of TD I have factored in

Decent Speed Infusion gloves is a must! Just need the mesos for one. LOL
May I ask what your range is?

Hello, fellow Angelic Buster
Depending on your range, the strategy for Dojo differs! At 1.5-1.7, though, with 225% boss, it's probably safe to say that you're only just capping with Trinity, and that Soul Seeker isn't nearly as effective, so yeah, there's not much you can change in that regard for now.
It should be noted that Angelic Busters are just plain bad at dojo, period. I cap with seeker 100% of the time, and I've never gotten below 4:30 -- usually get 4:4x due to laziness. While Soul Seeker isn't actually -terrible- in terms of hits per second, the fact that you need to throw several sets of orbs prior to attaining maximum output means that we're just not suited for fast dojo times qq
With the upcoming Angelic Buster 'revamp', though, Trinity gets another line, so that should help out a little bit

For now, to reduce your time, you should make sure to cast Pretty Exaltation/Terms and Conditions/Final Contract, and utilize the 10 second rest period after each boss as much as you can so that you can have these buffs up more often ^^ I usually use them at floor 34 (pap) and at 39. You should also consider getting a pair of DSI gloves, since Angelic Busters are really slow

LF> More Lines/Higher Damage Cap

@straatlamp:

There is just so much to do TT~TT... :c

(Thanks for writing a lot <3)

@vaseline:

I did know the first part, but didn't know the second part. Wow! Maybe I'll try that.

@mingela: the time stops for 10 seconds after the boss is killed and you could full buff then. (If you already knew that, nvm xD) + I've seen a Cygnus soul summon attack before your skills can reach the monster (or reaction time I guess) those souls kills early stages faster ^^

While waiting for miracle time you could :
- train up your link skills to lvl 210.
- Level up Ambition, willpower and insight for pdr/ status resist/ elemental ignore respectively.
- Neb all your items.
- Unlock pocket slot if you haven't already (30 charm + rose clipping quest)
- Get a nice inner ability (+1 attack speed/ 30% crit main ones for Angelic buster imo)
- Scroll your gear perfectly & enhancing to atleast 12 stars.
- Look into Alchemy for all the great stat boost potions. (10% crit, 20% boss, 20% pdr, 10% all stat etc etc.)
- Farm MPE potions, you can't have too many of them
- Get your optimum cards to SS rank.
- Obtain the best in-game medal currently available.
- Obtain all 3 dark dex totems.
- Monsterfarm for temporary passive 'potential' boosts (no idea how this works though)
and last but not least, buy beautiful perm nx to upgrade your character <3

Hi! Welcome to Basilmarket .

OT: If you're really dedicated to breaking that top 50, I would suggest that you increase your range. I know it's really general advice, but most people who are that good at dojo usually have a 2m-2m range.
