View Full Version : [VIDEO] Star Beast Staff's charged Proc is weak and Cosmic Killer is nerfed

I spent the weekend testing the staff and these are my considerations.

Standard Staff proc is much stronger than the charged proc

The charged proc takes away 75% armor and the standard one takes away 50%, so the charged one was supposed to do more damage.

Not only that, but it appears that a standard attack on the target affected by the proc takes away more health than a charged attack.

When I charge the proc, the damage over time stops after 3 seconds and comes back 1 second later. This pause does not happen in the standard proc.

Cosmic killer damage reduction is weaker with the staff

I have six pieces of Star Beast equipment, so the weapon gives me 60% damage reduction. But if I use the orb I lose 20% of my health on the Orrick boss, while with the staff I lose 80% of my health. Damage reduction is lower when I equip the staff.

Final considerations

I searched the forum a little and found something that @Cinco said.


Weird. It should be same or better. I’ll take a look at the tick damage formula and see what sort of error may be at fault here.

Thanks!!

That's been a month, so you can check what's going on with the staff. And check the damage reduction when the staff is equipped.

I am equipping the bracelet. This gives me the Cosmic Killer too, but for a shorter time than the amulet.

Yes it is true. The topic here was about damage over time. If you charge the attack the proc is very weak. But if you activate the proc with a single standard attack, then it becomes strong.

And yes, I also wanted the number of targets to be increased so I could kill mobs with the staff.
