I crunched some numbers to see how realistic a blood hunt, martial artist with the "Hollow Resonance" node is.
I made a previous post about how a build using Blood Hunt and the new Martial artist with the Bell on back ascendancy node had some potential.
Here is the follow-up.
Calculations for Blood Hunt lvl 20 interaction with bell on back from “Hollow Resonance” ascendancy of Martial artist.
Some conclusions I derived out of the number crunching.
- Can only consume bleed once each second. (Because consume mechanics)
- Because the bell is a substantial amount of damage (224% to be precise) it's important to maximize the amount of rings we get.
- Bell has crucial synergies with other damage supports like Impale, making it even more relevant that our attack time is in sync with the bell. When maximizing bell rings, it is responsible for 40% of our raw damage. Without taking into consideration things such as impale.
- Attack speed must always be in sync with bell or we lose a considerable amount of damage, also attack speed over 2 has diminishing returns.
- For most use cases if you want to use the bell you should be aiming for the 2 attack per second mark, unless you are using it for ailments exclusively or supports with duration such as blind.
Why do the calculations for 3 seconds and not 10 or any other number?
Its enough time to showcase how bad timing may impact dps. Any time-span longer than 3 seconds starts to become unrealistic because very rarely will you spend more than 3 seconds standing in place attacking
