'BREAK' STATE & SOLID ANALYSIS SET, RE-EXAMINED - WE WERE ALL WRONG! & DEVS NEED TO FIX THIS ASAP.

In this video, we tested how the "Break" state actually works. And from our tests, we found out that 2-pc Solid Analysis might be bugged or mistranslated. We also re-visited previous tests and interpretation by PayneBlade, my own interpretation and the new crucial information we got from one of our viewers which led to this test!

In this channel, I share builds, tactics and strategy to improve gameplay and enjoy the game more!

UPDATE: English Description is now fixed! Good job Netmarble!

Heya Mouse. I actually don't recall my own results anymore lmao. I do recall the testing discussions with Natto and others and the results were the same. They may have changed it between EA and global release. The thing with igris as well he recovers his bar. Check with Cerberus who loses the bar and never gets it back

This absolutely confirmed my query regarding the break state. For some reason, it seems that we might as well test things out ourselves rather than unreliable response from the devs. I reached out to them weeks ago asking whether the break state only last when the boss is incapacitated or for the entire fight so long as the bar does not return. However, the only thing they came up with is that they cannot provide more in-depth technical information than what is shown in the game. I was like wtf? There were no clear information about it hence I reached out to them in the first place. Thankfully, there are people like you that goes the extra mile to help us confirm these things. Appreciate it, thanks!

nice info bro now i know when to full attack and use my ultimate :D

So basically its like the Greed set but you get the effects from the beginning instead of stacking break damage for it.

From what I understand. The Greed set only gives the break rate bonus is if there’s an elemental weakness but that causes the set to be almost unless. It’s basically a crit set. You’d still get ten stacks to activate it but instead of a break effect bonus your only getting the crit bonus. Of 15 crit and 30 cri damage. So basically it’s another situational type of armor set and you have to meet 3 qualifications for it to work properly.
1.right element
2. That element has a shield
3. You gotta stack break damage best to use it with Seo, Emma, Nam, and the dark archer guy.

Basically without a elemental weakness it’s a knockoff version of the toughness set just with higher main and substats

I think Devs should add a debuff indicator that the boss or monster is in break state or not

[Sam-oque]

i think the translation on the 2 piece set is correct, the damage dealt increase so you break more bars, test it and see how much damage you deal and how many bars you remove, then do the same with the set, you will notice that there is damage increase which makes you break more bars

[deamnt]

The Solid Analysis 2 set effect in chinese is"The [Break] effect increases by 15%"

[bb]

An interesting discovery that I found recently is that the more increase damage dealt gained from the burning curse set, the more it increases the break effect.

While I was running BoT Hobgoblin, I couldn't tell why the boss' break bar differs a little bit after finishing a cycle of the same break skills, hunter and without missing them. I often had 1% left in the break bar and had a couple of moments when I could actually break the boss with the same rotation. Until I realised something was off and tried to see what was causing this weird situation. After awhile, I tried stacking more of the burning curse 2-set buff and found out that I could finally break the boss.

Not sure if it increased my hunter's Lim Tae Gyu, Hwang Dongsuk, and Kim Sangshik break effect, my only break skill wind Armor break or all of them. I wonder if there are other sources of increase damage dealt that increases the break effect.

So, from the Solid 2 picecs, we can dealt more guage armor damage on the monster ? (I mean the guage break will decrease more than wthout 2 solid)

[CYBER-rldi]

bro's wholesome ...i like thah blud :)

[bjphachiii]

Is the break state additional damage from skills like Annihilation just added to the damage? Or is it a multiplier? For example Cutting Rush dmg is 800%, it becomes 950% if the bonus is 150? Or is it a multiplier?

[t-phen]

Mousu is it confirmed na working yung pulverize sa PoD? After breaking both arms, increased by ng Pulverize yung damage sa head?

[MousuTV]

Additional Info: The 2-pc set of Solid Analysis increase the shield break even without the Elemental Weakness! Kindly confirm on your end, everyone! Simply use a with and without 2-pc solid analysis and do a shield damage test. Please let us know if you experienced the same.

I think for now, we can use this in stages where we need to break the enemy shield (even without using elemental weakness 4-pc set).

[daxonion]

Apparently the battle tier numbers are bugged as well, here's whats happened:

After seeing the PoD video i switched my set from Set to Emma in between the fights and then i go into the menu and my battle tier has increased?xD Im like okay how did this happen i go in and see: Alicia Seo and Emma as my top 3 hunters! Now my Seo currently has no artifacts equipped but her peak CP is counted towards the battle tier for some reason so EVEN THO i could never achieve that total power for the battle tier the game recognizes it as my current battle tier.

This makes no sense whatsoever

[DNAria]

What I understand from the text is the same as what you have concluded, I don’t think there is any mistranslation, more like players misinterpret it

[andrejpancic]

can you test Weakness Detection Blessing stone... i just got LEGENDARY version of it (20% dmg dealt)

[viraldymaulana]

my opinion is that when the boss can get the shield back (Like Igris) the break damage increase only when he's down
But if the boss is only have one shield (Like Spider and Golem) then it will increase damage indefinitely

[dartl]

nice discovery, looks like a mistranslation

[mpdragon]

I think another way to test it is if the A5 Huntsman applies the break state debuff.
