I am surprised there is not more discourse about this mythic item. I really thought more people would catch on to how busted this mythic item actually is, but no. The only talks about the mythic seem to be He said, She said, based. No one is actually talking about the mythic itself, and what it is actually doing. I want to make this video to Address this specific mythic item because not only does it represent the direction the game is going and show the current state of theory crafting among the playerbase, But in my opinion its also an important moment to document because status effect builds now exist in the public eye, as a result of this one mythic item. I want to share what I know about status effects with you guys because You can actually make alot of fun builds using this item, but sadly, As of making and writing this description, all I see are copy paste builds that dont actually understand what this mythic item represents. I have been making status effect focused builds for a VERY long time. It has been a niche and interesting thing to build around because its requires a bit more work in order to pull off successfully. Its a very interesting mechanic that I am glad to see finally getting some love. This new mythic item however, Changes things. Over the last 3 and a half years, Status effects have quietly been getting buffed and improved to make them have much more of an impact on the builds that can take advantage of them. And while I made status effect focused builds in the past, I really started paying alot more attention to them when Zenimax introduced the infinite archive. Sure, arcanist was sorta the old status effect catalyst when it came out, but The real thing to pay attention to was focused efforts vision in the infinite archive. Its still the most powerful vision you can get in the archive and it simply just buffs your status effect damage by ALOT. It not only encouraged status effect focused builds in the infinite archive, Giving people a taste of what those builds looked like, but was also the precursor to alot of the future changes that Zenimax would make to status effects. The thing is, Massive % damage modifiers to status effects kinda take away from the whole concept of what building around status effects is all about in my opinion. There is always some give and take when it comes to making builds because in order to specialize in one thing, you have to sacrifice another thing. With status effects specifically, It was all about how do we make small numbers, dangerous? % modifiers were never part of that equation because they just did not make sense, unless they were absurdly large modifiers, which did not exist before the shattered paths signet. If we put those % modifiers into the equation, we loose what makes building around status effects so special. That's why sets like threads of war and Symmetry of the weald focus more on application of status effects and not the actual damage that they deal. Update 49 saw the release of the DragonKnight Class refresh and the 2H skill line refresh. And as nice as those things were to talk about, I was surprised that almost no one was mentioning the other elephant in the room, the shattered paths signet. I took one look at this mythic item and knew it would be a bit too strong, and at the same time, kinda ruin what makes status effect builds so special. With how powerful the mythic item is, You dont need to learn how to build around status effects anymore. you just put the mythic on and have damage. Its Too straightforward and kinda brainrots what makes status effect builds so interesting to me, and with the DK and WW refreshes, Im getting concerned for the future of the combat system and theorycrafting, because the game just looses depth as time goes on. Depth is what makes the combat and theorycrafting system so special.
