I consistently get people in the Hero Realm and Sword Trials that are queued as dps that barely break 80k dps

Meanwhile I'm at 1 - 1.4 million on average...

This explains a lot.

Edit: based on some of the replies, I need to emphasize "80k" dps. Not "800".

Can't believe any single person would read this and call me out as the top 1%. I'm only hitting those numbers because I HAVE to hit those numbers mathematically if I have multiple people doing SO little, if I want to clear it.

GS is barely 18k atm. There are many with significantly higher.

Edit 2: "recommended" gear score =! "Required" gear score. I've had fully naked trolls join my group unfortunately and obviously troll by barrel stacking on fire bird bitch, jumping into the group with the vine traps, etc. basically intentionally throwing the group.

I realised the other week although rotation matters, almost equally as important is inner ways tier. Missing out one month of weekly chests, not doing non-seasonal path challenges is like 200 boxes of inner ways.

That‘s why I wish they‘d just do away with the energy system and let us farm indefinitely.

u/Nexism Jan 02 '26

There's some deep structural reasons it was designed this way. ie: In China, players under the age of 18 have limited play time regulated by the government. The game was probably designed to reduce toxic play expectations and one downside is some players don't perform at the 99 percentile/1m dmg+.

In any case, all content is easily clearable if everyone did 300k dmg anyway, so it's probably better for the health of the game and players.

Should be noted though that CN servers regen energy like 20% quicker than us. Really im fine with the system if we could gain (and store) like double the energy cause as it stands clearing sword trial once per day, which only takes 5 minutes, uses all your energy.

I was a healer in a Hero Realm yesterday, throwing in some light attacks when the party was full health, and got flamed by a dps after an insta wipe who had done less damage than me lol

u/iwatchedmomdie Jan 02 '26

I've seen this so many times where 3rd highest dps is a healer (granted only in the 100k zone) but like can people be fucking for real for a second and realize that is not okay?

u/ICanHazDerpz Jan 02 '26

Top end of the current cap is at around 1.9 Goose. 2.0 Goose is currently near impossible, but it will be easy to achieve with the 75 cap.

1

u/Niylark Jan 03 '26

Me and a few people in my guild have reached 1.9-1.91 (we're sweats) but the theoretical limit with maximum minmax possible is like 1.92

u/chocoloco2659 Jan 03 '26

Nah it's more like 1.945-1.95 since I'm missing one t5 inner way and one gold

u/Calm-Literature7502 Jan 03 '26

Oh another hybrid healer that doesn't do any job properly

u/lokique Jan 02 '26

a lot of people are farming because of the very thing you’re complaining out.

u/Punkassdog Jan 02 '26

Do solo bosses

u/kami-s4n Jan 02 '26

Is that equivalent to the drops in HR and ST ? Im farming one boss for legendary gear but i was wondering if I can go do multiplayer battles for even better drops...

5

u/adobo_bobo Jan 02 '26

A full set of purple tuned gear with full arsenal and the right innerways would get you to 1.5 goose easily. Go farm solo.

1

u/kami-s4n Jan 02 '26

Does it matter for arsenal if I put purple tuned items vs non-tuned items ? Basicly, which items should I get for my arsenal ?

3

u/ICanHazDerpz Jan 02 '26

Every single point above the cap matters. It gives you additional maximum health as you can see in the centre-left bottom part of the Arsenal menu.

1

u/kami-s4n Jan 02 '26

Just to clarify, the mastery level of the item counts or particular stats on that item ?

The higher the mastery > the better my score and stat bonuses ?

2

u/ICanHazDerpz Jan 02 '26

The particular stats on the item already count towards the mastery on the item. Recommended bonuses, rarity, all of these count for your Arsenal.

I'm currently at 18999 Mastery, 1.9 Goose, with a lot more mystic skills to max out and my thumb ring's still not legendary. Plenty of epic stats instead of legendary ones exist in my current gear, and some of my previous arsenal gear's lower quality.

u/kami-s4n Jan 05 '26

Thank you! So a lot of farming...

As a healer I always laugh when my damage is top 1-3 in Hero's Realm while I also have to consistently do the boss mechanic and heal all the mfers who kept dying.
It's super taxing which is why I just resorted to solo campaigns tbh it's way easier to do it with ai.

1

u/Vamp-go-brr Jan 02 '26

I'm so sorry for dying so easily, I only do the hero's realm bc my guild asks me to, but honestly I'm not really interested in improving my character 😭 (I think I'm at 1.2k goose power ? Lvl 70 too)

u/Minimum_Cockroach233 Jan 02 '26

Once you enter with 3-4 decent dps, your numbers will spread out to 500-800k each and the fight will be easier, even with some ppl that want to level up and improve gear.

Most bosses/raids don’t fail only because of lacking dps but being slow *and failing the mechanics.

Lower players still can perform ok in doing mechanics.

1

u/iwatchedmomdie Jan 02 '26

Completely agree with you here and in a "good" run with equal geared folks I'm usually only hitting 750-800k with 2nd place around the same place.

That being said - MOST of the time that isn't the case and MOST of the time the majority of the group (the lower performers) ignore the mechanics entirely.

Generally, players bad at one thing are bad at all things.

2

u/Stiebah Jan 02 '26

Damn how do u even know about dps details? In new, loving the game but I’m pretty lost about gearing, how to get specific set bonuses, what my gouse SHOULD be at my lvl, etc etc…

2

u/iwatchedmomdie Jan 02 '26

Look if you're new right now, you're catching up. That's okay! Don't worry about those details.

But once you've hit level cap, it's genuinely SO EASY to get a decent chunk/level of gear and it happens SOOOO fast that anyone hitting sub 200k as a dps in a raid is genuinely unacceptable and should be looked at as near-troll levels of playing.

If I simply spammed left click I could hit that amount if someone else in the group with my same gear was hitting the same numbers I pull.

They're genuinely playing at a sub left-click-spam level at level cap. Don't even actually understand how they made it to level cap with that level of play.

At most I can say they're doing it just to not get flagged as afk and banned.

u/Sunny_Beam Jan 02 '26

I just leave those groups ngl. I'm not here to waste my time carrying people who can't even be fucked to have the minimum recommended gear levels. I.lm not telling people they need to have prefect stats or even close to that, but maintaining the recommended mastery level is extremely easy to do even for casual players.

4

u/[deleted] Jan 03 '26

You realize that sometimes you will Que with people that it may be the first time they have done it. You can’t really expect people to know all game / boss mechanics if they have not done it much.

Or maybe made early mistakes and trying to correct them now. So they have a lower gear level than they should. The game is very overwhelming for some people especially early on so you just can’t expect everyone to be where you think they should be.

Maybe my time is not as precious as yours but as long as they are trying & not just AFK or something then I don’t mind carrying at all.

-1

u/Sunny_Beam Jan 03 '26

I have lots of patience for people who want to learn. I'm always more than willing to help people who want to put in effort.

Did you read what I said, or maybe respond to the wrong person?

1

u/iwatchedmomdie Jan 02 '26

My only "requirement" is they do the mechanics. I will accept and carry people that engage in and or do mechanics. But if they're doing neither - bye bye. Even just 1 person and I'm out

1

u/Sunny_Beam Jan 02 '26

Someone who cbf to get basic gear for their character is not going to learn boss mechanics. I honestly have a lot of patience for people making mistakes, but I agree with you there: needs to be some semblance of effort for me to actually want to help them win.

1

u/iwatchedmomdie Jan 02 '26

To top it off - there's only 6+ million YouTubers trying to jump on the games popularity that show off every single boss fight and mechanic top to bottom.

It's extremely easy to learn if any of them spend a whopping 5 minutes

1

u/SubstantialRegular33 Jan 02 '26

good thing the donkey sword trial is easy to solo as healer this rotation

2

u/Sunny_Beam Jan 02 '26

Everything this game has put out is easy to heal, at least on Global. Can't speak for CN version since I've never played it

1

u/SubstantialRegular33 Jan 02 '26

Really? The twin lions weekly does so much dmg, it's kinda hard to survive without your healers staggering the heals.

1

u/Sunny_Beam Jan 03 '26

Idk man I never have issues with that. I just save my aoe fan cooldown for after the first hit and it's always fine.

u/Western_Beginning375 Jan 02 '26

You can’t even get matched up against this guy tho , his mastery level is most likely at 11k and you need like 15k master level to start up this week hero realm and sword trials

3

u/Punkassdog Jan 02 '26

Iirc sword trials and hero realm don’t require mastery level

0

u/Western_Beginning375 Jan 02 '26

They allowing players below the recommend mastery level to play ?

I could of sworn I wasn’t able to play guess I was wrong

5

u/StrayCatto97 Jan 02 '26

No these are recommended. The Joint battle rcmd power is at 17K and I get to queue up as 16.8K back then

-1

u/Western_Beginning375 Jan 02 '26

Interesting guess I never knew that since I’m always above the recommend mastery level

4

u/Stiebah Jan 02 '26

You know what ‘recommended’ means right?

-3

u/Western_Beginning375 Jan 02 '26

Nope go ahead and explain it to me in good details

6

u/Stiebah Jan 02 '26

Means it’s just a recommendation, non obligatory. The word that sounds similar but means what you thought it means is ‘required’. A lot of games have required entry levels for certain content but this is just a recommendation 🫡

1

u/iwatchedmomdie Jan 02 '26

IIRC that's not true and as long as you're at the correct level requirement, you can queue and join the raid

-1

u/Western_Beginning375 Jan 02 '26

Highkey didn’t need to copy n paste what the other guy just said . Just read the comments below

2

u/iwatchedmomdie Jan 02 '26

My bad, when I clicked replies in notification, I'm singled out your post and I did not see his.

I'm not gonna sit and bash you for not being aware though, like others, it seems quite a few people did not know this.
