Is FA the king of damage again?

Well I figured I'd test it out!


The contenders were an Elec/SD/Pyre, Fire/Mental/Cold, Fire/SS/Pyre, Fire/Kin/Stone

Elec/SD/Pyre Stats : 45% Melee/42% Ranged 42% AoE. 91.3% Global Recharge w/o Hasten

Fire/Mental/Cold :45% S/L 85% Global Recharge w/o Hasten 1619% Regen 3.7sec off perma

Fire/Kin/Stone : 43% S/L 71.25% Global Recharge w/o Hasten

Fire/SS/Pyre : 33% melee 30% S/L 70% Global Recharge w/o Hasten

Custom Farm Map with huge ambush, clearing it + the original spawn. Set at +2 Minions/LT's/Bosses.

If you didn't make it through the Vids, the results were actually pretty close.

Fire/SS : 2:21
Elec/SD : 2:33
Fire/Mental : 2:57
Fire/Kin : 3:40

Definitely some serious buffs to Fire's Damage output. I shudder to think what a spines/fire/pyre could pull off. Anyone have one and want to do a run?

Try AE arc number 440709 - clear the bottom floor and get the glowie. Also use no damage inspirations on any run (since the drops may vary).

I actually did a few runs but the first set didn't have any sound (and didn't use insps) so I was getting bored and just started to use them like I normally do. The results were about the same with the blaster being much closer to the fire/kin. Reds don't actually do all that much for the fire tank, and do nothing for the fire/kin, If anything they helped the time of the blaster and scrapper. Once double rage is going you're a mere 40% damage from the cap, where as the blast/scrap can get several hundred % to cap their damage.

That being said it wasn't a super official test. I just wanted to see what was faster and after 3 runs using insps for each (the elec/SD and fire/SS) the tank won every time, with one of them coming in at a staggering 2:12.
