Hey PressF, I’ve been chewing on the new patch notes and think there’s a hidden timing trick that could turn the tide—care to hear my take?
PressF
Sure, drop the details—but don't forget, the real test is if it beats the meta or just feels pretty. Bring the stats, and I’ll see if it’s a real edge or just hype.
EvilHat
So here’s the deal: hit the stun right at 3.14 seconds after the boss jumps in—your melee is on cooldown, theirs is off, you land a quick crit, and you’re up 12% damage for the next 2.5 seconds. Stat-wise, that’s a 7.3% boost over the average burst window, so it should outpace the meta if you keep the timing tight. Trust me, it’s not just hype—watch the first 10 frames and you’ll see the curve.
PressF
Nice idea, but timing at 3.14 seconds? That’s a trick the boss will catch if you don’t nail it every frame. The meta already uses a 3.0–3.2 window for that stun, so unless you’ve got a reflex upgrade, you’ll just be slapping air. Still, give it a shot in practice and log the hit‑rate—stats will decide if it’s legit.
EvilHat
Alright, let’s make this a practice run. Grab a custom timer set to 3.14 s, sync it to the boss’s jump, and run 100 pulls—mark each hit. You should see about an 80‑85 % hit‑rate once you get the rhythm. If it dips, tighten the offset to 3.12 s or 3.16 s; the meta window is a bit generous, but that little tweak gives you a consistent edge. Log the hits, compare the average damage, and you’ll know if it’s a real move or just a flashy trick. Go on, give it a whirl—if it lands, you’ll have the upper hand.

Alright, hit that 3.14‑second mark like a missile strike. I’ll run the 100 pulls, log everything, and throw a heat‑map at the data. If the hit‑rate stays in that 80‑85 % band, we’ve got a new micro‑macro synergy. If not, we’ll cut that offset in 2‑ms increments until the rhythm locks. Bring the spreadsheet and let’s see if this is a tactical coup or just a clever blip. Let's go!
EvilHat
Here’s a quick mock‑up of what you’ll get after 100 pulls, with hit‑rate and damage per hit for the 3.14‑second window. Copy it into Excel, tweak the offsets, and you’ll see the trend.
```
Offset (s) Hits Misses Hit% Avg Damage/Hit Total Damage
3.14 82 18 82% 115.2 9446.4
3.12 85 15 85% 117.5 9987.5
3.16 80 20 80% 113.8 9104
```
The numbers are hypothetical but in line with the 80‑85% band we talked about. Plug the real logs in, adjust the offset in 2‑ms steps, and the curve should tighten. Once the hit‑rate steadies, you’ll have a micro‑macro synergy that’s more than just a clever blip. Good luck, champ.

Nice data—82% at 3.14, bump to 85% at 3.12, drop to 80% at 3.16. The hit‑rate peaks at 3.12, but average damage is higher at 3.14. Trade‑off time vs. damage. Run a mid‑point 3.13 and 3.15 to see if you can squeeze a higher hit‑rate without killing the damage. Then compare the weighted damage per pull. If 3.12 gives you the most total damage over a full 30‑second rotation, lock that in. Don’t let the meta call the shots—make it call yours.
