Amara is one of the character in the game. Amara use a resource called rush stack. Players can collect rush stacks by using action skills and passive ability.
When Amara has collected enough rush stacks, she can use her skills to do more explosive amounts of damage. If a player dont manage their rush stacks for Amara correctly, then the rush stacks can dip below 50% of total number of rush stacks, which means that the cooldowns for her skills will be too long for her to use them very often. Additionally, the player will have to balance the rush stacks with elemental matchup and sustain.
How to Play Amara: Rush Stacks and Builds
The skill tree will determine the performance of Amara in the game. The skills in the Mystical Assault tree include Do Harm and Violent Tapestry. These increase an amount of action damage that she does and the number of status effect that get applied to the enemies.
However, if a player puts too much into the Mystical Assault tree but not the Brawl tree, then she will be effective at ranged enemies but ineffective at close range. The Fist of the Elements skills are the bestest in fights that require damage to be done over a period of time since these increase the damage that the elemental weapon does and the length of those elemental effect. Additionally, there are specific gates within the skill trees that, when completed, will provide Amara with additional skill.
The class mod will change the way that Amara manage her rush stacks and gun damage. The Phasezerker class mod will increase the maximum rush stacks that she can have to 99 and increase the gun damage that she can deal. The Spiritual Driver class mod will allow her to have faster loop with her abilities and increased gun damage, but she will have a lower rush stack limit with this class mod.
Additionally, class mod must be paired with artifact. For example, the Pearl of Ineffable Knowledge will increase the gun damage that she deal but without increase the cooldown of her abilities. On the other hand, the Otto Idol will increase the amount of healing that she do for her teammate.
The element are used to increase the damage that she do to specific type of enemies. For example, shock damage is good against enemies with shield but not good against enemies with armor. Fire damage is good against flesh and does damage over time, which is good against boss.
Additionally, corrosive damage is good against heavy enemy. The elements should be chosen to best suit the types of enemies that you will be fighting. Additionally, there are action augment that will change the way that Amara play.
For example, the Ties that Bind action augment will allow her to control multiple enemy at once while the Downfall action augment will only do damage to a single enemy. Some of the skills are better used at certain distance from the enemy. For example, the Personal Space skill is only effective at being within 8 meters of the enemy but becomes less effective at distances over 20 meters.
The distance that you engage your enemy will determine the amount of damage that you do with your action and how you use the Phasecast skill. Additionally, your rush uptime should of been between 70 and 85% when you are battling enemy. Many player make mistake when they build Amara.
For example, one of the mistake is to put too much into one tree instead of another that provide cooldown reduction for the abilities. Another mistake is to not consider the synergy between the class mod and the rush stack. In this case, if the two do not match, her abilities will not be used effective.
Additionally, one of the mistake player make is choosing an element that will not be effective against the enemies that they are fighting. There are three score that can be used to evaluate the skill of the player when they are building their Amara character. The sustain score determine how well she can stay alive in the battlefield.
This score include lifesteal and other passive ability. The control score determine how well she can control the enemies that are fighting against her. This includes the number of enemies that get chained or pulled in closer to her.
Lastly, the projected damage-per-second will show how much damage she can do over time. These three value will show if the player is done building their character; when they are ready for endgame content.
