Lighting ring

I know that everything in the game (except garlic lol) is supposed to be OP but that new evolved lighting ring is something else :D

thank you kindly

There is almost no reason not to go LR now.

[pi73r]

Yea, especially that duplicator was great anyway so there's even more to that now.

[LaChouette]

Its greatness depends on the map. In Green Acres, it was "only" third in terms of DPS (was first by quite a margin in Library though) when I did two runs with it. However, given how great its prerequisite is, I indeed don't see much of a reason not to take it.

While Vandalier is really op, Lighting Loop wont let enemies get close to enough. (Mostly afked after 17 min)

I feel a lot of the time enemies don't even make it into the garlic aoe with a half decent load out

[angrytrex]

Just did:
Arca as character (-15% cool down):
Lightning Ring -> Duplicator
Vandalier -> Spellbinder
Death Spiral -> Candelbro
Rune Tracer -> Tome
Hellfire -> Spinach
Evolved Whip ->Hollow Heart

Everything died including my frame rate.

I dig the new evolution, but also find myself having somewhat mixed feelings on it. I like running Porta because the ring+candelabra will just clear huge areas of the map once you get a really good run going, but it seemed like the evolved version trades a bit of that area off for the second strike, and attacked a bit slower as well. Could just be my imagination, and like I said I still think it's great, but I just can't shake that feeling.

Definitely your imagination. Porta attacks stupid fast right at the start then it slows to a crawl until you get cooldown tome.

Garlic buffs knockback, which makes the books far more effective at protection.
DPS doesn't show this.

But lemme guess, laurel and clock lancet are also completely useless since they don't have high (any) dps.

What Darth said - DPS isn't all. Some weapons may do less DPS but be amazing utility or at cleaning leaks.
