Ravenswatch - Gepetto - Dummy build (5Neg - T-type)

On hard difficulties and in challenges, Gepetto has several builds that emphasize his Dummy. None of them are super reliable due to the low survivability of Puppets in challenges, although they're not a problem on regular Nightmare. Only the Power build remains prime in speed, damage, and stability, so don't expect high speed and consistent clears from other builds. There are four variations of Dummy builds, depending on their emphasis (item talents): Attack, Ultimate, Defense, and Fireworks (healing). The Defense build may be the strongest in terms of damage, but they will all be inferior to Power at different stages. However, a hybrid of these builds is also possible, depending on the items. The downside of Gepetto's builds is their high dependence on talents and stats. ___________________________________________________________________ Starting Talent: Dummyball Ultimate: Meca-Puppet + Bomb Reserve (large puppets can also use some of our offensive talents) Key Talents (in order of DPS impact at the start): Sharp Noses, Forked Lightning, Laser Lenses General Buff Talents (always important and very strong): Flash of Genius, Mourning Rage Additional Talents to enhance focused builds: For offense: Oiled Mechanisms, Large Family, Family Meeting, Pogo-Hoppers For defense: Lightning Rod Dummies, Large Family For the ultimate: Family Meeting, Oiled Mechanisms Fireworks Build: Fireworks, Clockwork Medicine, Large Family I don't recommend taking the Heart Ties talent (especially the last variation). It doesn't do much in challenges, and it's generally unnecessary on Nightmare.
