Pink Question: New Augments

[C.C. 折オリ枝 の 夫]

I'll make this quick. Since the Prime Time was too late for me to watch, I was wondering, does any of you know what the new augments that were supposed to be showcased do? If they were shown.

I'm at work for a few more hours, so I was wondering if anyone could give me a summary of what they do.

Still thanks for the vid

Titania razorwing augment : while in razorwing casting powers increase flyspeed and firerate of dex pixia by +25% for 8s stacking up to 4 times

Harrow covenant augment : headshot kills will increase the duration of your crit buff by 4s

Equinox Mend & Maim augments : if I understand correctly it will actually come with an upcoming slight rework of the base ability that will make Mend heal instantly on enenmy kill instead of healing at deactivation. The augment itself will increase strengh of maim by 400% and mend by 200% over 10s on cast.

Nidus Larva augment : while enemies are trapped inside larva, recasting will make the larva explode dealing AoE viral damage and send enemies flying in the air (spaghetti bomb)


Note : Harrow augments will be available from RVeil and AoHexis, Nidus from SMeridian and PSequence

My birthday came early this year...

So happy for the Nidus Agument. Finally a way to control Larvae duration in mission.

I am looking forward to Equinox's rework on Mend as I died so many times because I was legit half second late to close Mend and get the healing. Same goes for my team, I notice trouble, I trigger Mend but they die before I can close it

I am a bit curious on Titania's augment, as most players run neg duration, the duration the augment will be low as well, but maybe I'm missing something.

actually duration shouldnt be negative, since it reduce the energy it need every sec, by a lot, way more than efficency

Wrong. Efficiency has a slightly stronger effect on the energy/second of channeled abilities than Duration does.

Wait, wut? Duration is important in all her ablities, including the energy drain of her 4. Negative duration of Titania would hinder all her ablities with no positive result.

The rework for Equinox's ability isn't gonna give health it's going to give shields on kill :P

Not quite. I tested a bit with both +duration and max efficiency, and the energy costs were quite different from one test to another.

The minimum she can have on her Razorwing is 1.25 eps, you can't go lower than that, and you can get that with Primed Continuity, Fleeting Expertise (max) and Streamline, but when I swapped to FE r3, the cost went to 1.57 eps, and I wouldn't add Narrow Minded because she needs range more than duration, so unless I trade Strenght for Duration, there is no way you can build positive duration and get the lowest cost, and trust me, between using Spellbind and Lantern (this one occasionally) as CC to save your fairy behind, refreshing Tribute or getting new buffs (in case you need the slow/damage return for some reason) or misstargetting and getting a wrong soul out, you want the lowest cost on Razorwing, she also can't use Zenurik unless she stops fairy mode as well, but in that case, I'd trade out Zenurik for Madurai and use Energy Restores.

The only skill negatively affected by Duration is Spellbind, as her Tribute buffs are not affected by duration, and lower duration on Lantern isn't something bad, as I don't have to detonate it manually to actually deal damage.

Some news about that if you are still interested :

Hey all who watched (and perhaps even read this thread)... we have an update here on the Augments we showed! We're actually going back to the drawing board on the Equinox Mend / Maim augment. After more testing, we simply didn't like how it was working and we're trying out an entirely new design. You can expect the Nidus, TItania, and Harrow Augments to release soon on PC, but Equinox's will come later.

Thanks for the info. I am looking forward to the Equinox one, while still wondering how to mod Titania to make room for it without sacrifing too much strenght.....
