Dark Mage - Noctual Destruction

[Dante] Build for [Noctua]

You can check out the [Noctua] build here: Noctual Destruction

This is the build i'm currently using. Though you lose a big portion of your ability duration (still have decent amount of buff uptime) it buffs all other abilities significantly.

Passive:

[Noctua] scans its targets. You gain +50% status chance on fully scanned targets.
This is a nice passive ability when it comes to this build.

Abilities

1. Ability - Exalted weapon - [Noctua]

[Dante]'s exalted weapon, acts just like the Grimoir. Only thing i want to point out is that unlike other exalted weapons, it drains energy per shot. You can mod it just like any other exalted weapon.
Its passive is that you have no restriction how many tome mods you want to equip. You can have 'em all equiped if you want to.

2. Ability - Survivability - Light verse

Grants max HP and overguard to you and your allies.

3. Ability - Offense - Dark verse

An ability that inflicts Slash on enemies uppon casting.

4. Ability - Ultimate - Dark verse

Based upon the last to verses you cast you get 3 buffs and 1 offense outcome:

- 2x Light Verse - Triumph - Gives Overguard and Overguard regeneration for the duration.

- 2x Dark Verse - Tragedy - Any damage overtime (Toxin, Slash, Heat) the enemy suffered accumulates in a single blast.
This is your main room nuke ability. It has a DoT multiplier which scales with Ability Strength.

- 1x Light Verse & 1x Dark Verse - Wordwarden - Summons [Noctua] copies for you and for your teammates.
The [Noctua] copies syncronize their attacks with your attacks. Its damage is 30% of your actual Noctua damage. Not a game changer ability, but a nice little addition to the build.

- 1x Dark Verse & 1x Light Verse - Pageflight - Summons Paragrimms that attack enemies making them vulnerable to your status chance and drawing enemy attacks to them.
This is an important buff which you might want to keep up always for a great damage increase and crowd control.

Archon Shards

3x TauForged Crimson Archon Shards

  • +15% Ability Strength -> +45% Ability Strength (if you dont have the tauforged ones yet, use regular ones instead)

You can secrafice ability strength for duration if you prefer more buff uptime.

2x Tauforged Amber Archon Shards

  • 1 for 37,5% Casting Speed which is needed to shorten the casttime of your abilities ( to kind of negate the abscence of Natural talent)

  • 1 for Effectiveness of Energy Orb pickups. Again, you will use your abilities constantly, so you need every energy you can get. (You can swap this one out if you feel like you can manage your energy)

Arcanes

Molt Augmented: Further increase your ability strength by a total of 60%.
Arcane Energize: To help you manage your energy more efficiently.
