Kobold beatdown times: outcomes post level 30 buffs

[BigErkyKid]

Hi,

I have been doing beatdowns and thrown together characters to get an idea of where characters stand in the power scale. Yes, it is an imperfect measure and what not, but it is nevertheless something. All these builds are with throw together gear, but making some sense. Not using the new raid gear. For the sake of sharing, here are my beatdowns (blitzing) for the boss kobold:

Ranger: first life, tempest, dual khopesh (TF tier 2) - 110-130 seconds.
Barbarian: first life, ravager + frenzied, dual picks (TF tier 2) - 130-150 seconds.
Rogue: multi life, acrobat and assassin, epic elemental bloom - 125-140 seconds.

I did not use all the possible buffs (for instance no ship, no tensers, no titan grip, no twists) and I did not micro manage perfectly the different timers as I was not intending to go for the best possible ever, rather get an idea of how it might look like in regular questing, when I am not only focusing on cool downs and I might not have the bestamest gear.

I'd be quite interested on the relative beat down times that people manage to get across builds. I would find more informative if people posted several entries across builds since it allows to somehow control for player ability.

Was that rogue getting sneak attack? If not, you certainly were not getting "an idea of how it might look in regular questing" which is your stated goal.

Got 60 seconds on a boss Kobold on a maxed out human tempest. Main-hand had a Blank LGS Khopesh, offhand had a Crippling Flames Raiper.

If I main-hand a Balizarde it's about 70 seconds.

Yup, I was getting sneak attack procs for between 300 and 400 most of the time.

That's a very good time! Have you tried any other build?

Thanks for sharing.

I can hardly even make a dent in those kobolds with a favored soul.
It would certainly be very much longer than I can to spend.

With optimal gear and using the build listed in my signature (20 fiend warlock): 180, 174, 210, 165

Optimizing for dps using same char: 154, 167, 182

With optimal gear and using mult-pl toon and a lvl 20 air/water savant (using only dots + slas): 821, 759, 865

With optimal gear and using mult-pl toon and a lvl 20 air/water savant (using full spell rotation - probably would run out of sp before finishing): 340, 312, 315, 281, 293

My druid and palemaster times were ~800 and ~1000 respectively when using typical spell rotation (not being carefree with things like ruin).

First life mechanic (18 rog/2 art) with no pl and suboptimal gear (e orchid non-raid, e archon non-raid + LGS great xbow): 106, 95, 113, 92.

First life bard spellsinger sonic (U28 set + LGS caster sticks for gear): 734

First life pure tempest twf (double LGS, suboptimal gear otherwise): 84, 99, 82, 98 (threw out outlier @~140 before I equipped LGS weapons).

Warlock, savant, druid, and palemaster times are all roughly close to theoretical best (maybe ~10% away).

All other times are a little un-optimized (I have no idea how to optimize a spellsinger's damage).

Lamannia went down before I could test acrobat, 14/6 mechanic, fvs evoker, warchanter bard, and thf barb. Will post when I can though the above times will probably be invalidated due to LGS being updated.

FvS Iconic (access to Sunbolt)

1st Run: 425. Was unsure on SP to HP ratio, conservative by casting SLA's mostly
2nd Run: 331. Unloaded like a Sorc. Ran out of SP at the end, needed 1 SP pot.
