Was anyone able to try beating Jaania via Ninja, Paladin, and/or Technomancer by any chance? This is assuming the context is Jaania Normal:- If Pyro can do a "do not try this at home" run on EX, why can't Ninja on Normal? Ninja v Jaania Easy is an "I ain't even thinking (much)" run as zero changes to the Endgame wiki recommended rotations for the aforementioned class was necessary.
- Of the six runs I had against Normal, five of those were Paladin, and was a breeze compared to DmK, the latter of which is of course more attributed to it being a blind confrontation (my first run, no pedia entries yet). I even dared and won A SEVENTH with Paladin and with a somewhat NDA approach (made even the mistake of allocating 45 stats to CHA when I was depending on Stan the whole time) to answer your NDA concern on page one of this DNs thread.
- Technomancer? Just like the Pyro example cited. At this point, you're just having to improve your research capabilities because YT has vids of them.
Now, your next argument would probably on the NDA side. While I still have roleplaying tendencies (which explains probably why I still use a 130 INT/STR, 85 END, 100 WIS build as opposed to the 200/200/45 construct nowadays), remind that this game has enough NDC classes to give the player the winning hand that will offer, if I were to borrow TFS' remarks, a "path of least resistance even if it's less enjoyable". One day, you'll learn to be pragmatic as I feel you're still like me 2-3 years back. Brute forcing things with CW, DmK, or both, blind to the potential that other classes possess. To say that you should only rely on one class throughout is stubbornness, and will only add to the never-ending "what is the definition of fun" arguments. quote:
DA Holder or not, I daresay there are elements of the story that are compelling to see from that viewpoint itself, and it would be a shame if parts of it (Looking at you Dr When) are locked up behind a difficulty spike (Dr When), or worse, a paywall for a game that is advertised as F2p. Now this brings shame to me. I was one of those NDAs when Dr. When was freshly released. I was there when guests amped up monster's HP values to hell. And I was there to confront the aforementioned heathen monster with said guest handicaps and won before the Titan finale of Book 1 was released (he fled, but at that point he was gonna go 0 HP before I did no matter the crit probabilities or critical misses). The point of the arguments made prior to your butting in this far is not insomuch as you're DA or NDA, but on showing effort deserving of the strategy aspects of this game. Sure, DCs still exist to bypass drop RNGs, but you're otherwise free to toil the drop RNGs before max level. And during that time and while you are already max level, learn the classes you have under your belt. Strengths and weaknesses, rigidity and flexibilty. Those alone can cover you even with shoddy gear for your level. So, the effort I'm referring to? That includes wit, patience, and a growth mindset, the latter of which is why I structured my small root cause analysis on my previous post as such. Go ahead and numb yourself on the mobs, but not on the bosses. Deal with the full experience of encountering them, both satisfying and frustrating. Otherwise, it'll just be a papier-mâché "Please make it a challenge for me" (bonus point if you get the MCU reference) when all your braincells have is v1 Life Carve ad infinitum/nauseam.
