This is the new controller and dps artifact we are getting on May 28th 2025 along with the Light & Rain: Fearful Day DLC
So, as I DPS I can debuff... Sinestro's Ring = 8% Batman Who Laughs = 7% Wonder Woman = 10% For a total of 25%. "As a DPS"??? This is important. Because I'm not a scoreboard chaser. I have a regular DPS load out for Raids. But I also have one with BWH and WW taking center stage. If I see I'm not one of the top two DPS I will change to the debuff load out. This gives those who are doing more damage a huge boost in performance during the last bosses. (When they get below 45% of course.)
No. According to Multiverse, to trigger the Controller effect from this Artifact, you have to be on Controller Role That Picture "showing" the Artifact is not complete.
No, you have to be in controller role to do the debuff with Avatar of Fear. The other DPS side ability wasn't shown for some reason, but I think it's just a summon/pet like effect that deals damage. No debuff applied.
To be honest, I was interested in another aspect of this artifact... pay attention to the 5% supercharge every 6 seconds for 45 seconds, this will give a guaranteed 35% supercharge for each skill CD, while you don't have to do anything at all... As a result, we get: damage from the skill + additional debuff of 8% + 70% power back + 35% supercharge, every 60 seconds.... My battle controller seems to have already fallen in love with this artifact....
Oh super cool I have a useless 200 artifact I don't need I'll gladly feed it into this baby and with enough Nth metal saved up and sale coming up and my calculations I should be able to max it day one I think. When I first heard about this art I knew I wanted it in my arsenal of tricky tricks.
That kinda seems bad tbh. It states that it’s “at your current location”. Wonder if that means you’d need to be melee to mid range for you to get the damage
also we should assume the dmg the artifact does is based on might ? seems like this artifact will replace strategist and grimorium... might be really important for aoe, maybe for st dps too, not sure if good only for might or prec or both So 5 dps artifacts for might dps ( like gadgets ,electricity) will be : neron,transformation card, omega, this new artifact, and 5th ebon?
You’re right, miss the “target” in the description. From what I’ve seen it’s yet another might art. I personally still don’t see ebon and omega syncing properly. With omega you always want to spam omega which is a finisher. And with Ebon you want to avoid using your finisher to maintain your damage buff. The only benefit would increasing your might a bit to make omega hit harder. But not sure that would be enough. It could very well be omega trans candle strat new art. Lately they’ve said screw power creep so I wouldn’t be surprised if this is yet another art that does excessive damage and also doesn’t split.
Will it still power up the avatar of fear in controller role if you are playing solo and aren't in a group?
Yes, I have run solo in troll role and had it proc - although it does seem less likely to proc, perhaps because in a group you are restoring power to multiple targets, or in solo/due because the targets drop the power regen orbs and you don't need to restore as much. Might be worth running without a power regen ally to check this though.
Leveled up this artifact a bit last night, and messed around with it. Seems to be decent enough for both roles, as far as the artifacts effect goes. I don't know if anyone would use it, but both effects linger for quite some time. Enough that you can stack them both for a short duration if you swap armories/roles. I don't know if this would be beneficial in very many scenarios, but it's possible. I'm also not sure if this was just lingering animations, either. They seemed to both work when I did it. My only gripe with it is the DPS side animation. The avatar of will circles almost right in front of your characters face. I wish this was somewhere else, maybe around the torso (going around the waist or chest) or behind your character. I was kind of hoping this would just give us a ring glow in our off hand, depending on role, when I first heard about it. Hoping we could mimic the characters who dual wield power rings, or "wear" one with powers that aren't Light, but still choose to use it. Regardless, the new animation is pretty cool when it disappears. The construct shatters and almost disintegrates. It would be cool if they could update some of Lights animation to use the new effects they made for this episode. It would be awesome seeing enemies "break" our constructs, like Grasping Hand, Snap Trap, etc..
this art has a super **** visual effect on troll. please fix or make something that remove art effects....
