We love consistent mechanics! Just stacking some strong classes which shine in different phases and hoping for good rng. The qCata and pTemp in the 2nd subgroup are helping with the damage pressure by bringing water elementals. Quaggans = Pain and Agony and /gg.
Fun fact: XJJ and OLC follow tyrian day and night cycle instead of the canthan cycle :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Music: youtube.com/watch?v=vrphLUWZv3QGW2 W6 Largos NM - CFB 32kHeldrunk2025-06-12 | A bit of a showcase on one of the bosses where cfb really shines imo and this time with a good group!
You really want to be on the Kenut side with cfb, the movement pattern of Nikare is hard to deal with after the split.
Secret tip: in order to grief your power dps players make sure to give the boss protection by facetanking the wave with stab mantra (it can also free you and others from bubbles)

The rotation has become much more enjoyable to play, if you need pages for other utility you can swap any f1-1s for pistol auto attacks.

Still rusty and getting used to the new pistol 5 (opener xdd) but already quite happy with my performance. Without holding and cleaner execution a 35k is certainly possible!

Nothing has changed due to the patch, just a much more aggressive rotation. Extremely high apm in certain places and some heal mantra usage for extra pages in a tight page-economy spot. This could be pushed to 44k with cleaner execution but I have scratched the benching itch for now.

I've been putting it off for a long time because that run was very poor on my end, it was deep into the grind that evening and I was exhausted. Nonetheless, enjoy!
The strategy was very similar to the previous world record just this time with super busted vindicators which to this day are best in slot as dps.

Condi Firebrand is back on the menu with more utility than ever due to reduced page costs: stability/reflects/aegis/resistance and more! Big thank you to Iskarel for convincing me to try benching for the first time, I had a blast!
These benches were done with the zeal (2,3,3) traitline instead of virtues.

Can certainly be optimised further but the rng with mechanics makes it a chore to grind when you don't run ranged dps.

Music is taken from the Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty OSTHT CM - Alacrity Dps Renegade (Gs/Staff)Heldrunk2023-11-27 | A quick PoV on Alacrity Renegade as boondps running with 50% bd although 60% is safer on the uptime when learning this build. For any questions and tips on the build, head over to discord.gg/voidlounge !
Music from Spellforce OSTHT CM Alacdps Renegade PoV - 60% BDHeldrunk2023-05-28 | Alacdps renegade with Kalla/Jalis. Build and gear is found in the HT CM discord server.
Build notes: this boon duration is rather safe and overcaps alacrity easily, it could probably be lowered to around 50% with good play. You can replace staff with hammer for easier cruelty stacks and ranged CC. You can also replace Kalla with Shiro although we are currently testing whether this is a significant dps increase. If you have a reliable stability source in your subgroup you can go Kalla/Shiro.
Gameplay notes: The rotation is quite flexible and has a lot of room for optimisations as you can swap freely between legends without affecting your alacrity generation. There is certainly a lot I can improve here myself to optimise dps.
It can be quite easy for portals in your subgroup to drop alacrity on the first green in Jormag since the timing overlaps very awkwardly with Orders from Above; to avoid this from happening the portals can try to stack with the Renegade on the first orb, make sure crabs die nonetheless.
Finally, dodging is dps loss KEKW, probably the most annoying part of alacrene is losing 23% crit chance when you don't have full endurance. I dodged unnecesarily multiple times in this run. Nonetheless, if you die because you didn't dodge, your dps is 0 for the rest of the run.HT CM Firebrand stack - Condi Firebrand (NEW META POG????)Heldrunk2023-04-30 | Enjoying condi firebrand for the last time before the patch in HT CM. Had a lot of fun but it felt very unusual to play firebrand without giving quickness and doing greens (this isn't meta btw). The patch will hit condi quickfirebrand so the power version will likely be meta for HT CM in the future.
I misclicked my signet on Primordus and my Soo-Won was very poor, I panicked a lot. Maaaaaaybe I should go to the golem again... Nonetheless, super super fun!
