zomgbuffalo.5276 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Hi, Is mirage staff build viable atm? What's the dps? Is it far behind axe build? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyroatheist.9031 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Depends on what you mean by "viable". Can you kill things in open world with it? Sure. Is it even remotely competitive as a dps in actual content? No. The autoattack is utter garbage compared to axe and the ambush attack is as well. Damage is low enough that nobody really even bothers benchmarking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite fun too and I like my staff skin, so I am curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been pretty garbage outside of those 24 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levetty.1279 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Also when they fixed the bug they nerfed the duration of the burn and bleed on the ambush which I am still bitter about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And everybody was benchmarking it without another friendly target nearby to eat all of the bounce dps, so the actual dps was likely 10k below what the "benchmark" videos were showing.

Exciton.8942 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I met a player who tried it on Deimos with ranged strat. He ended up doing about 40% of a weaver's dps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.5684 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I use it in open world PvE sometimes when fighting champs solo for sustainability. For damage? Axe is light years ahead. It also loses damage the more enemies or allies present cuz the AA bounces all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
