Peristalsis: A new helmet (Meta? Idk)

Hello so I sorta have no idea where to put this, so if anyone knows somewhere better please tell me. So Peristalsis is a new attack speed/build viable (Maybe) helmet focusing on the elements of how many attacks you can make and how fast you can make them. It will be a fabled drop, and hopefully will be even slightly balanced. It may be a good replacement for a helmet in say a Limbo Tstack. But without anymore rambling here is Peristalsis: https://wynnbuilder.github.io/custo...201027130108X17010Cq180201Q66190230o3w1L01013

The thread for item suggestions and posts is at the top of the main wynncraft forum tab (the item maker thread labeled with an orange info tag)

As for the item, I’d say it’s interesting and not bad at all, good job :D

 

the major id singlehandedly makes this item busted. without it, you've actually done a decent job at keeping its power level in check. other glaring issues:

• id hell. notice how real items have less of a wall of text. you should keep to roughly <10 stats, focusing on the most important parts of your item.
• roll ranges are 0.3-1.3, i'm not a fan of making up your own.

my rework and a sample build
(still a little too strong, but -earth def cope)

i'm ok with this being in wynncraft section. there's no set-in-stone place where posts of this type should go.

i asked someone who is familiar with medical stuff whether the name actually fits the item design, and they do not approve.

 

Oh cool! this is exactly the stuff I needed, yeah sorta picked the name out of the top of my head. Also yeah the major ID is a bit OP and I will tone it down, thanks for the criticisim.

Thanks!

 

I don't think there's much you can do to nerf the major ID. Ideally, you drop it entirely. If it's important and you want to force it, you'll need to nerf the side stats quite a bit to make up for it. Time Rift is worthy for comparison: note its high intelligence requirement and mana penalties.

changed the rework a bit to demonstrate, i don't think it's the greatest but it gets the intention across

 

Honestly still to strong.
Remove the jump height, it doesn't actually do much, nerf walk speed, and maybe give it like a thousand negative raw melee

 

Ignoring the power entirely, the major ID is just lazy. Chance based damage bonuses are consistently the worst major ID ideas.

(looking forward to a more creative alternative!!)

 

Ok!! Challenge Accepted.

Ok yeah I think melee debuff would be good but I just dont want to nerf too much

 

Your current major ID is effectively a 1.25x multiplicative boost to melee DPS. That means you'll need to push the melee DPS on a good sample build to <0.8x an equivalent non-Peristalsis build in order to make it not overpowered. My demonstration uses negative melee and shows something like 27k vs 31k with worse survivability on the Peristalsis carrier.

i've actioned this suggestion and it makes no difference to the damage. is this a bug on wb or a redundant nerf?

 

should make one, weird

 

wynn fact: negative raw melee doesn't subtract from elemental damage
