This time the professional balance for Asura focuses on strengthening the data level, and the degree of enhancement is not low. It is still very important for Asura, who was weakened in the previous professional balance (not implemented in the national server). In addition, this balance also gives Asura some optimizations at the skill level, making this profession extra The operating space has been slightly improved.
Career revision analysis
This time, Asura's main skill values have been strengthened by an average of about 11%. Some of the main skills that were weakened in the previous version of the professional balance have been strengthened and returned to a level similar to before (if the national server covers the data in the future, is the same, with a slight advantage) , and some skills (such as the level 95 skill Fluctuating Eyes: Inaction) have not been weakened, so the status of these skills in Asura's skill set will also be relatively improved.
- Additional commands can be entered in advance during the action of casting skills.
Extreme Ice· Wave Sword
- After wearing the protective stone, you can use the manual detonation function when using other job transfer skills.
Fudo Myooh Formation
- After wearing the protective stone, you will become invincible when controlling the enemy when releasing this skill.
Currently, due to the setting of the toughness bar, it is difficult for high-level monsters in mainstream dungeons to trigger the invincibility effect when Asura uses this skill, so it is relatively useless. However, the Fudo Myoyo Formation has not been weakened in the last professional balance in the Korean server. Therefore, the status of this skill in terms of damage will be improved to a certain extent. Wearing the protective stone of this skill to enhance the damage is also an option to pursue the output level.
Revised character gameplay
1. Character points & stone protection runes
This revision does not actually change much about Asura's overall point bonus. However, because the level 70 skill Extreme Flame Wave Sword has a certain cooling time added to the 100 version of the career balance, this skill is not suitable for the current version. In the long-term combat environment, you can abandon it according to the situation and allocate SP to other small skills. Or as mentioned above, choose the Immovable King Formation and allocate SP to it, or give up small skills and choose a play style that focuses on colorless skill output.
Sky Thunder Wave Sword is Asura's main output skill, and its range and form are excellent. It can also enjoy the 75 skill bonus of Psychic Shoulder, so its protective stone is a must-select.
The protective stone of the Extreme Ice Wave Sword has greatly optimized its form, and this revision has further optimized it. I personally recommend it.
Thunder Cloud is more prominent in the long-term combat of this version, and as a level 80 skill, due to the special shape of its form after wearing the protective stone, if the player chooses the empty blood attack speed flow that is better compatible with Asura, the Ent's top will The increased entry in the level 80 skill damage CD can come in handy to a certain extent, and at the same time, the explosive ability when liberating Thunder Cloud is also significantly improved.
If the player likes an instant high burst of play, they can replace the Thunder Cloud with the Extreme Flame Wave Sword or choose the Evil Light Wave Formation to use with the Psychic Shoulder.
The guard stone of Fudong Mingwang Formation can also be used as an alternative to guard stone No. 3 (the guard stone of this skill is bound to the allocation of SP).
In terms of runes, we recommend the 9-protection Thunder Wave Sword (purple, blue and red runes). If you have used the protective stone of Heavenly Thunder and Demonic Pestle, you can replace the purple-red runes with Heavenly Thunder and Demonic Pestle to enhance your long-term combat capabilities.
As a profession that lacks three speeds, Asura has an obvious problem of short legs, and the smoothness of skill release relies more on attack speed. Therefore, three speeds will inevitably become a key point to pay attention to when matching equipment. Under this premise, it is better to choose a combination related to attack speed flow. And due to the special effect of the passive skill Frustration Will on MP value recovery, the popular empty blood flow/empty blood attack speed flow is very compatible with Asura. In addition, players can also choose genres such as bleeding through their own customized ownership.
① Asura's high-level colorless skills are generally good in form. Whether it is piling or actual combat, they can be poured out quickly. Moreover, the cooldown time of small skills is generally not long, and can be used interspersed with high-level skills to maximize the total damage.
②The Evil Light Wave Formation, the Unparalleled Wave Formation, and the Fudo Mingou Formation have a joint softening effect similar to triple control. In actual combat, the order of use can be reasonably arranged to enhance the speed of skill pouring.
③ If you want to continue to increase the total damage, the short CD transformation skills brought by Asura's one-time awakening skill "Dark Sky Wave Eye" can also be used interspersed during the cooldown period of high-level skills. When releasing the sting wheel obtained by the normal attack deformation, you can find the right moment to enter the reverse direction key command to achieve the "X in place" effect.
Since Asura is a fixed-damage profession, it is not expensive to create for entry-level players. It has good affinity with empty blood flow, has a relatively large skill range, and has a high lower limit, making this profession a good choice for an alt account. . When used as a large player, because the form of advanced skills is generally simple and crude, the burst speed is not bad, and it is easier to use in many situations. The characteristics of interspersed small skills/transformation skills can also bring Asura a high ceiling.
Personal reflections and summary
After Asura's career balance this time, the weakened data have been strengthened to a large extent, effectively alleviating the pain of insufficient data. However, the optimization of some skills is still insufficient/not optimized. Moreover, this profession lacks mobility and relies heavily on attack speed and movement speed. Although the current version can be alleviated by the combination of attack speed and flow, Asura without this equipment system will obviously expose this shortcoming.
The data has been improved relatively well, and the problem of low data has been alleviated a lot, but the mobility problem has not been improved in any way, and the optimization of skill form is also somewhat useless.
Since the previous weakened version of Asura Korean server was not implemented on the national server, this enhancement will most likely cover the update when it is updated to the national server in the future.
