  • Today we're going over WEAPONS (and a little bit about armor)! While weapons start out quite easy, there's a bit of nuance when it comes to aspects of the game like Arena and Grade! Hopefully I'll be able to answer any questions you have about the Weapons in CotC!

    I heard that the historic materials you get from beating the BT fights can be used to obtain more BT weapons, but If I can farm those weapons by recruiting and leaving the NPCs, then what's the purpose of the historic materials? Is it even worth farming?

    • @Ellzcraft
      @Ellzcraft Před rokem +8

      Think of it this way, historic materials are on a 20 hour timer, and after ~8 days of getting 4 per day, you’re guaranteed a BT of your choice. It might be a sane version of fighting the NPCs over and over for a 10% chance drop.
      When the next 4 arrive, it’s then 4 days of farming them all once a day.

    So for people like me who don't want to grind for min/max, it seems like the recommendation is to have Fenrir/Tyrant for physical weapons and simply stick with Tyrants for magical ones.
    However, at 14:00 it is said that Tyrant performs roughly the same as Fenrir outside of the arena, so is it another step of laziness that I can take to just simply go for physical Fenrir IV (since it's similar outside and better inside) *and* magical Tyrant IV (since it is better outside and similar inside)?

    • @ShizukatzCotC
      @ShizukatzCotC  Před rokem +1

      The problem with crit is that the payoff is only a 25-30% damage increase. Unlike in other games, there's no way to significantly increase your crit chance, and even if there was, it would be much easier to just increase the character's base damage instead.
      Also Spells can't crit.
      As a result, Crit is kind of an underwhelming stat overall.

      As Nikki said, it's part of the math formula to determine damage. That being said, both actual-Japanese JP players and western JP players have been trying to figure out an exact equation that shows how Grade translates to damage, and nothing concrete has shown up.
      Through my own testing (just trial/error + observation) it has equated to roughly 20-25 offensive stats per 0.1 Grade.

    • @ShizukatzCotC
      @ShizukatzCotC  Před rokem +4

      Crit is easily the most useless stat. It only affects crit chance, not crit damage, and it seems that enemies also have a variable crit resistance - the strongest enemies seem to have a lower chance of having crits landed on them.
      That being said, the main reason to build Tyrant weapons is specifically to craft the Tyrant IVs, since they'll be the strongest weapons for a few months - stronger than Fenrir/Innocent due to its higher grade, as indicated in the video.

      If you want to skip some of the farming and not go for absolute minmax, skip Innocent.
      If you want to be a minmaxer, Innocent IV is better than Tyrant IV SPECIFICALLY in Arena, in terms of Mag stat.

    10% drop rates sounds so fake, i fight 3 of the BT npc every day (24 historic materials i think) and they have dropped nothing

      All a matter of perspective. It used to be like 1% for JP before it got its drop rate buffed so to us it was a massive blessing :>

    Its hard to understand your content of video, bcs you talk so fast and ur visual of video not explain it. Its like hearing mumble rap with japanese game.
