Some questions about Iops Well i'm a lvl 54 iop, full earth... and i'm having many questions..
I saw iops with my level that hit much more:
I think i understand many mistakes i have made: I use Jump as my damage booster, (Jump+spell+spell or Jump+weapon), thats because i dont understand Authority... can someone explain that one to me?

Then, is full earth iop a bad build?
I need some guidance
Thank you

Authority is better for damage boosting, unlike jump to trigger authority you have only to attack and if you use flatten you can trigger it (so a jumping move + damage boost + damage). jump as a damage boosting move has a really high cost, authority is free...


the earth iop must have 8ap to be really competitive, the double shaker/gutting gust/uppercut combo deals a lot of damage and has a really high chance to trigger authority.
so you need at least gutting gust and uppercut from air branch.

yea but would still be good have Authority for earth?

if we dont count Gutting Gust and suppose he has 8 AP .

If he uses 2 shakers(4AP) ( would be 40 lvl power )
if devastation (6AP) (if has 3 enemy would be 60 lvl power)
if he uses impact(2AP) ( 4 times would be 80 lvl power)

and supossing he succeeded that

comparing him with a air / fire iop

he would have disvantage to activate it since cost less AP

but if you have done a earth iop you shouldnt think about damage , but in status effect,lock,tank.
if you succeeed in two stun in a battle you could surpass your lack of damage

i would think more expert locker and compulsion

Thank you, I usually use 2 shakers and gutting gust , I didnt think in lvling up Uppercut cause i use the PW when i do the combo Jump - weapon in the back...
I suppose i'll have to wait till the next stats reset: Jump isnt a good choice for earth, only if I use weapon... So i should start lvling up uppercut.

Compulsion-Virility-Authority-expert locker should be the best,right?



Thank you guys

yep, except for expert locker (i don't really like it) i prefer flatten (at lvl 63 i have maxed compulsion/authority/flatten).
with the changes at equipment i don't really need to put points into hp (i've 160 char points unspent) or virility for pve, probably in pvp i'll need them but i've stopped playing...
