KingTohoku's Notes

PLAYSTYLE Control Difficulty: Mild Buttons Required (Secrious Mapping & Bossing): 4-6 Buttons Required (Casual Mapping & Bossing): 2 This Cold Flicker Strike Shattering Palm build can be played in two ways: 1. Casual Mode - Simple 2-button gameplay for comfortable farming. 2. Full Power Mode - Uses multiple buffs to unlock the build's maximum damage potential for juiced maps and endgame bosses. The more buffs you maintain, the higher your damage output becomes. ================================================== CASUAL GAMEPLAY (2 BUTTONS) ================================================== For T15 maps and general farming, only two skills are required: Shattering Palm -> Flicker Strike -> Repeat That's it. This simple rotation is enough to clear comfortably, but it only utilizes roughly 25% of the build's maximum damage potential. ================================================== MAXIMUM DAMAGE GAMEPLAY (4-6 BUTTONS) ================================================== For heavily juiced content, pinnacle bosses, or when you want to push the build to its limits, follow this setup sequence: Step 1 - Activate Hollow Focus Buff Use Killing Palm on your Hollow Focus Bell once. This grants: - 25% More Lightning Damage - 15% More Fire Damage as Extra Damage You only need to do this once at the start of a session. The buff is automatically refreshed by Charged Staff whenever you kill a Rare enemy. -------------------------------------------------- Step 2 - Generate Power Charges Use Shattering Palm on a monster pack. Usually: - 1 hit is enough in dense packs - 2 hits may be required in smaller packs Your goal is simply to reach maximum Power Charges. -------------------------------------------------- Step 3 - Activate Charged Staff Use Charged Staff to gain a buff that lasts nearly 1 minute. This is one of the few buffs that requires occasional maintenance, so simply refresh it whenever it expires. -------------------------------------------------- Step 4 - Refill Power Charges After activating Charged Staff, use Shattering Palm again to quickly recover your Power Charges before engaging. -------------------------------------------------- Step 5 - Activate Mantra of Destruction Before using Flicker Strike, activate Mantra of Destruction. This is your most important damage buff. Benefits: - Grants almost 138% of damage as extra damage, which is then converted to Cold Damage. - Provides the majority of the build's endgame damage output. After killing 10 monsters with Flicker Strike, the Purple Flame effect reaches maximum stacks and extends the buff duration to roughly 53 seconds. In practice, the buff usually lasts all the way to the next boss encounter. ================================================== FULL ROTATION SUMMARY ================================================== 1. Killing Palm on Hollow Focus Bell (once per session) 2. Shattering Palm to generate Power Charges 3. Activate Charged Staff 4. Shattering Palm to refill Power Charges 5. Activate Mantra of Destruction 6. Flicker Strike everything After setup, simply maintain Charged Staff and Mantra of Destruction when they expire while continuing the Shattering Palm -> Flicker Strike loop.
