Warrior/Knight I Tried To Compare Apoc And Collapse Melee

Alright, so I've heard that Collapse was terrible in every way possible, and it's pretty much inferior to every warrior mythic. I decided to test this statement by comparing both Apocalypse tank to Collapse Melee Tank and Apocalypse damage to Collapse Melee Damage, and I was actually kind of surprised.

I might make a thread for random ideas that pop into my head later, because building is one of the things that still keeps me here playing Wynn, and it's pretty fun to make wacky concepts or just make a build for pure memes.

I'm pretty new to this sacred part of the forums, so I may be a bit inexperienced and probably haven't pushed these builds to their full potential, in fact, this is my first post here I'm pretty sure. I also made these builds at 2:00 AM so my brain is slowly rotting.

Apocalypse (Damage): https://wynndata.tk/s/mx9n5s
[12k melee DPS, super fast attack speed of course, 9.9k (ew) HP, OK defenses just don't look at fire, has lots of WS, has LS.]
Alright, this one's probably pretty bad, I'm not so good with Apoc, and it's pretty much just slapping tier stack. I swear I saw an Apocalypse build with more damage than this at some point, but I really don't have the brains to memorize it or recreate it right now.
Apocalypse (Tank #1): https://wynndata.tk/s/9hgsy1
[6k melee DPS, fast attack speed, 10k HP, pretty nice defenses, has LS, uses a Rainbow but no slap (instantly worst build), actually just an attempt at me trying to be creative and not swap out the leggings for Heat Sink.]
Mostly just an attempt at me trying not to be lazy and swap the Horizon from the damage build for Heat Sink.
Apocalypse (Probably Better and Lazier Tank #2): https://wynndata.tk/s/kv0ais
[9k melee DPS, very fast attack speed, 11k HP, less nice but still nice defenses, has LS, me being lazy.]
Probably the better of the two tanks and me NOT trying to be creative.

Alright, now it's time for Collapse.
​

Collapse (Damage): https://wynndata.tk/s/12arq0
[13k DPS, super fast attack speed what else would it be, 10k HP, OK defenses but the fire might burn your eyes so don't look there, cool WS]
I swear I had a better build somewhere but as I'm making this my brain is slowly rotting even more so I forgot what it was
Collapse (Tank): https://wynndata.tk/s/jumsnq
[10k DPS, super fast attack speed, 12k HP, pretty nice defenses especially for Collapse, also cool WS, many left over skill points for you to use]
Honestly I'm kind of impressed that Collapse didn't melt into a pile of liquid while trying to be put into a defensive environment, but sadly this one is kind of rainbow slappy, but then again Collapse IS rainbow...

CONCLUSION!
Wow I expected Collapse to fail but honestly it's kind of equal, KIND OF. Of course, Collapse manages to top Apoc's dmg, but surprisingly it had more HP too. Defenses are pretty equal too, probably because Collapse gets to use Heph + Silt. Apoc's LS is really important though.
Why am I talking like I know what I'm doing? I don't know, because I really don't.
You should probably just use Alkatraz.

Thank you for coming to my THREAD talk, feel free to use, improve, or utterly destroy the builds I made.​

 

liking this just for that pun at the end



but in all seriousness, interesting thread and good job.
