Stats to aim for

in priority order; your value when your sheet gives it

  1. 1PrécisionFirst: bosses parry or evade hits from the front. The threshold changes depending on the dungeon; no reliable global figure yet.
  2. 2Boost de DGT et Boost de DGT d’armeSoul Engraving options on gear (Damage Boost) and manastones (Weapon Damage Boost), according to 빵호빵 (KR, Sep 17).
  3. 3Boost de DGT CRITWind’s Promise, Spinning Strike (+15% per stack, 2 stacks) and Undefeated Mantra 15 already provide it.
  4. 4Coup puissant (Double)Doubles the damage of the hit. Impact Hit and Undefeated Mantra 20 provide it; Wisdom (Mirror of Magic) as well. On global, Smite only rolls on the helmet and cloak (soul engraving lines); it also comes from the pet (Special tab, slot 4, up to 3%), the Pantheon’s Wisdom, Impact Hit and Undefeated Mantra 20, never from a manastone or a title (global client; aion2maps).
  5. 5CRITCap shown as 50% on Global (see the thresholds); 80% in Korea: Dark Crush’s “guaranteed Crit” specialization gives about 10% (Hagoo).
  6. 6VIT de combatLow priority for the Chanter: since the Sep 16 KR patch the 122% Combat Speed threshold (with Power of the Storm up) only gives one more Dark Crush and one more Piercing Strike per Storm window, about 18 extra hits in the tested window (183 vs 165; Inven 22960, Sep 19; aion2maps, Oct 2). Don’t invest beyond the buffs and an ordinary Courage scroll.
Known thresholds and caps
  • Critical Hit: the global Critical Hit tooltip says “50% maximum” (Evasion 30%), but no client table stores that cap: the Asian release showed the same text and its combat statistics reach about 80% (aion2maps, Sep 28); Hagoo (KR) gives 80% and values Dark Crush’s “guaranteed Crit” specialization at about 10% more damage. To be checked in game.
  • Combat Speed: since the Sep 16 KR patch, the 122% threshold (with Power of the Storm) no longer chains Dark Crush endlessly (빵호빵, Sep 17: “no effect”) but still gains one more Dark Crush and one more Piercing Strike per Storm window, about thirty hits a minute (Inven 22960, Sep 19; aion2maps, Oct 2); players still aim for it on Oct 6 (Inven 23329): a small gain, to test on your own dummy.

  • Nezekan : Level 12. Unique nodes first (Combat Speed +3%, Cooldown Reduction +3%), then levels for your core skills and Attack Preparation (2 nodes).
  • Zikel : Level 20. Damage Boost +3% and Damage Tolerance +3%, then Wind’s Promise and Impact Hit (2 nodes each) and your core skills.
  • Vaizel : Level 30. Critical Damage Boost +3% first, then core skills and passives.
  • Triniel : Level 40. Multi-Hit Chance +4.5% and core skills; it ends up filled like the others.

Arcana

Arcana: 5 slots on the official Global sheet (Mein-MMO says 4: to check in game). Each card raises skill levels and gives a deity stat; several cards of the same set add a PvE bonus. Open the Arcana sheet
