Epicentre: Volcano vs Firestack - which one deals more damage?

  • I recently heard from someone that Firestack is gonna get a major nerf in damage, so I was wondering - which one is better in damage post nerf and after nerf?


    Edit: Just noticed there is another topic about it! nevermind!

  • Because she was way too strong with 60, she was better than adv. Haru without adv.

    After the nerf she was on the same lvl with Haru, a bit better than Erwin.

    With her adv. she is slightly better than Haru again "if your gear is stat-wise fair enough"

    You sure? be careful what u said, i got attack because i said iris is stronger than other class in term of dps. This guy told me Iris is weakest compare to like Haru and Erwin. And you sure she got nerf? i told him Iris got nerf, he said iris got buff at level 60. Not talking about advancement.


    Iris - awakening (KOR), for all who have not seen it yet ^^

  • Seems rather unfair that skills get changed with no free option to reset them. Happened with Lily die-phoon, and now this.


    In this case, I asked HOQ and he told me to not worry about that.





    He doesn't truly confirm nor gives info about it, but the "don't worry" could mean that the changes are negliglibe or not too impactful as someone could think. If anyone wants more information, ask any KOR player to clarify even more.


    And the "Volcano is better at 60" truly depends. The Tornado will always outdps the other one on paper due to the quantity in projectiles. Even if they decrease the damage of the skill to the level of the Volcano, the fact that it launches more tornadoes as baseline will just make it the better choice. The drawback is that you are locked on a spot, but if you're at point blank making the boss eating everything you spit and the boss ain't moving you can make insane dps. (In the worst case scenario you can go far, missing the hits from the canon into the ground and just use the skill as homing missiles). I have yet to test if the tornadoes are affected by atk speed. They could be since it's a channeling skill. If they do, that means even more tornadoes the higher your speed.


    I feel that, no matter what, Volcano is for area denial and a squeeze-every-time-is-not-on-cd-to-win-a-bit-of-a-dps against bosses while Tornado is our truly unleash hell on bosses.
