Hey hey. Surprised no one has brought this up here or on Reddit.
The legendary node for Cunning Stratagem is a bit far away from other useful things on the board, so in order to grab the node, you need to sacrifice about 15ish nodes that could be put elsewhere.
So my question is this, how much value is this node? How much difference is 8 and 9 arrows? Simply because, those 15 nodes can equate to several random damage buckets like 15% damage, 30% CC damage, 55% physical damage, etc.
I’ll elaborate on that: I don’t mean it’s just 15% damage, or 30% CC. I mean it’s all three of those as a trade off for this extra arrow?
Like are there any true number crunchers out there that can determine if buffing damage for the 8 arrows outweighs an extra arrow?
Also saddened to say, having 3.5 attacks per second doesn’t in fact help a combo point barrage or rapid fire build, other than spamming the basic skill quicker, and it’s incredibly taxing to focus like that. I thought the AS would speed up everything about the skills, but it doesn’t seem to have any impact on the arrow velocity, or even the animation, it just quickens the recovery time. Also, anybody wanting to see something hilarious, stack a bunch of attack speed and use caltrops.
