[3.10] Mzticc`s CoC BV+BF Guide

Hey everyone! Welcome to my Cast on Crit Blade Vortex / Bladefall Guide.

If you have any questions you can always come to my twitch stream to get them answered or just to enjoy the stream: Mzticc's Twitch Channel. Even though I'm streaming mostly in german, I have no problems to answer your questions. Or hit me up ingame.

Things you gotta know about CoC:

Spoiler
You want to have 100% Hit Chance and 100% Critical Strike Chance, so you have consistency and can focus on maximizing your Cast on Crit proccs. There are certain Breakpoints you want to hit to maximize the Triggers you can get. That means if you have too much Attack Speed it can even ruin the number of Triggers you can get. Also - it matters how much Cooldown Recovery Speed you have on your Gear. It makes no sense to invest in more CDR if you won't be able to hit certain Breakpoints.. It just a waste of Currency. So.. here are the Breakpoints:

1st Breakpoint
0%-13% CDR can trigger a Maximum of 6.06 times per second. So investing in Gear with less than 14% is not worth it. You want to have close to / a Maximum of 6.06 or 12.12 Attack Speed (in the Character Sheet on Cyclone - not POB!).

2nd Breakpoint
14%-51% CDR can trigger a Maximum of 7.57 times per second. So you only want to invest in 1 Piece of Gear with CDR 14%+. You want to have close to / a Maximum of 7.57 or 15.14 Attack Speed (in the Character Sheet on Cyclone - not POB!). Investing in more than 1 Piece with CDR isn't worth it unless you have a Awakened CoC lvl 4+. Then you want to reach the 3rd Breakpoint.

3rd Breakpoint
52%+ CDR can trigger a Maximum of 10.10 times per second. Here you need to have a Awakened CoC lvl 4+ and a Belt and Boots with CDR. You want to have close to / a Maximum of 10.10 or 20.20 Attack Speed (in the Character Sheet on Cyclone - not POB!).
