Energized Neck Coil is now useless.

Why would they add that 5 second delay, they should have fixed the bug instead of making the amulet useless.

I haven't used this amulet in some time but, I thought the explosion only happened on initial application meaning you had to wait for the ailment to wear off before getting another one. I can see a case for burning and bleed because you can apply/stack them 3 times (but the stacks just increase the tick damage). All other ailments are only applied once and then refreshed with continued use.

As for the 5s CD that is dumb because I thought the point of Band of the Fanatic ring was so you could get a bunch of explosion procs due to the 65% decrease to duration.

ENC + TKJ = 1 explosion big damage
ENC + BotF = a bunch of small damage explosions

At least that would be my intial conclusion, but now this change Nullifies BotF ring so it is a poor fix.

Actually Sinister Totem is better imo stacks up to 50%x dmg with status effects, it's new and not even on the wiki and I physically have it and am wearing it as we speak. Can post screenshot if needed.

Press F to doubt.

The other big apocalypse mode faceroll bug still works perfectly. Just switch to that.

It's not useless at all, you're just butthurt.

Come on now. Did you REALLY think being able to melt level 20 bosses on Apoc using a single rampage was really intended?

I've done some testing in town and it's still a pretty good option for status builds.

It was fun while it lasted though. Throwing overload rounds on the machine pistol and watching the HP bar of things just melt was glorious.

It's on the wiki, but it says it comes from Yaesha which is weird since if it was added with the DLC I assumed it would show up in the DLC. Where did you find it?

Apparently most don't realize how it used to work before DLS.

Then I'll explain. You apply the status effect bleed from Merciless rifle and it explodes, then you throw a grenade that also bleeds and it explodes. 2 effects 2 explosions. And new explosions from these sources will not occur until the effect is over, updating the effect did not lead to an explosion.

After *fixes they made a bug, which was that the explosion occurs and when updating the effect.

Now I hope it is clear why it used to work normally and was not imbalanced on bosses, and was effective only against ordinary opponents.

I did find it in Yeasha as 2 new items were added with the DLC to all the regular biomes as world drop chances according to the wiki.
