Merris Candy Cane Build

[xep]

Use Sign of Helper and play with various kinds of basic attacks. It's a fun weapon that unlocks an alternative style, hope we get more of these in the future!

The Wintersnatch seasonal event added an x-mas tree with presents. I opened one with each character. My Merris also got a Candy Cane that has unique stats.

I've found that Sign of Helper is just better in so many ways than Sign of Timespace, but I love that sweet sweet level gain so I've been forcing myself to try using Timespace despite that.

Dude, I just got the (blue/rare-quality) dagger for Nixi that "attacks thrice". Oh man, I'm having fun with this one.

I did try the candy cane on one run, though, and it seemed like it could be really OP as well. Crazy range. I think it's a helper for people trying to get the no-hit achievement (although I just tried getting that achievement for the first time yesterday and I tried first with the candy cane and failed, then swapped to onyx dragon weapon and got it that next run - so it's not like it's SO much better).

That sounds like on-hit proc heaven. Lots of fun with death or leigong!

OH, I forgot. For those who wanna do a candy cane build (especially if you're trying for a no-hit run), you should probably keep a lookout for "Winter's Embrace". It's a unique mythic ring with +50% duration to all frozen statuses you apply (also +24% adept... lol). I got mine right after getting a few pieces of gear that proc'd frost things for Nixi and I already bound it to her, or I'd love to try it myself. :x
