The biggest change that no one has mentioned thus far is ranged combat receiving a reliable no-save helpless proc from Perfect Pinnacle. That's why I revamped the build to stack 50% base, 50% combat brute, 60% no mercy, 30% sense weakness, 10% silent avenger, 5% ship buff (= 305% damage) immediately when Ravenloft came out.
Wasting party slots on CC is a joke when your DPS characters can do it for free.
You're referring to the blind proc?

Pretty sure that was fixed.
So you're referring to the knockdown proc from water. It's nice, but nowhere near frequent enough to be worth building or gearing around from what I've seen.
The helpless damage modifiers, on the other hand, are always worth building around for any DPS toon that runs high skull reaper. There are multiple and far more reliable sources of helpless status that should be present in any good reaper group.
If mobs are living long enough for you to consistently knock them down, the group's DPS is really low or you're soloing a lot.

It's a trip proc and not a knockdown, hence not helpless inducing.

Running a thrower right now, water stance trip from PP does not create helpless status.

Oh okay, I just do ~triple damage for a few seconds after each vorpal for no apparent reason then. That's cool.

1. It does not trigger on VORPAL.
2. Are you sure you are not confusing your great crossbow here?
3. Easy to test and prove since you have a capped character and a pinnacle. Screenshot the mob after the proc triggers and it will show the damage. Have your log up so you don't mistake anything for critical damage.

What he is describing sounds like the behavior of Balanced Attacks form Primal Avatar. Does that work with thrown weapons? Hmmmm, time to test.

In my experience, it does trigger on vorpal even though it does not say so, but does not seem to give helpless damage.

Did I say vorpal? I didn't mean vorpal. It is a 5% proc though.

Just got to 29 and thought maybe it only worked on epic Perfect Pinnacle. Went to Sobrien and water stance does NOT make him helpless for me.
I think that you are getting their strength to zero with Crippling Strike and getting them helpless that way. The sheer number of attacks a shuri thrower makes probably makes it work so well. Not PP but still powerful.

Thanks for that.
The crippling proc is nearly worthless on higher skulls from the reduced values to 0, and the fast stat damage regen. Waste of AP.

Did the new update that gives you at least a minimum of "1" on reaper only affect self healing or does it affect offensive things too like the str dmg from crippling. If so you'd get about 4.5 str dmg per animation which might do something. Looks like it multiplies by helpless too as he gets 6 str dmg on one throw in his screenshot.

It was supposed to not go lower than 1, but they bugged the fix. Should be good once it starts to work how it is supposed to.

Nah, I proc helpless on stuff that is immune to strength damage too; e.g. animated armor, flameskulls, etc.
Crippling Strike: I was testing it out. It will be nice with a minimum of 1. Mobs do completely ignore it 50% of the time in epic+ content though (less if you are doing normal or hard for some reason.)

I am inclined to agree. The damage should spike when the target is floored. This was not what we found when testing it last year.

Did you ever try Pinnacle testing without Crippling? Those mobs seem like Strahd and Ravenloft mobs which all have a chance to be compromised, or it could be Crippling is bugged.

Sometime ago, before my time, devs nerfed how stat damage worked in epics. Apparently from how the Wounding of Puncturing weapons were so good at giving mobs the business?

Worth a shot. I don't think I've reset my enhancements since Falconry came out. But I was definitely building for max helpless damage before that.

A long long time ago it was nerfed into complete oblivion for epics.
More recently, (but still kinda long ago) that nerf was lessened to what I described above.
But then reaper came out and rounded it all down to zero. Oblivion again.
I'm not going to dig through the release notes to establish a timeline, but there was a time that stat damage was good again, but it never really caught on much before reaper made it worthless again.
