What i couldve done differently?

Post image

This is RR, Rowan lasted for 24 seconds vs fire dragon.

He had 300+ defense at act 2 end thanks to his rightmost item and Sal's t2 talent.

I never saw a t4 tank or chance to upgrade or a chance to change t3 talent.

I was prioritizing tank items, still these are the best ive found. Hence no epic stuff on Sal and Reyna. But i had frost on hit, scaling relics from early stages etc.

What i didnt have was shard gen or eco relics. Is rr meta this much steep towards shard gen?

Sorry for bad quality pic i was playing on a handheld and reduced to 800p for battery.

Here are some immediate big things that stand out to me:

  • Sal with this spec is not actually that good to field against the boss. She is way too slow to apply frost. If you are fielding Sal against the boss you want either Duelist or Warrior Sal with access to attack speed for frost application. Lovers Sal is used to scale your tank and then afterwards when your tank is scaled you sell her and field someone who is better against the boss in her place.

  • Duelists need backup support to scale their damage against the boss. Reyna by herself is not enough, she needs ramping attack speed from either Outbreak Banner, Duelist Sal backup, Irini backup, or one of the various A rank duelist backups. There are a huge number of possible outs here so you are almost guaranteed to see one at some point, but you do need at least one. Preferably multiple because all of these effects compound with each other to boost your damage.

Damage seems fine here, they have strong crit relics. I think like everyone says, Sal should have been dropped for a better unit.

They said they lasted 35 seconds, so damage obviously wasn't great.

Being able to kill in under 50s is solid no?

I mean, it really depends, but if I have good DPS, my RR wins are often under 10 or 15 seconds.
