Tianyun Lao Mao
Chapter 443 Completion
The second evolution of God's Domain has significantly increased the skill usage requirements for players.
Even for experts, adapting will take a considerable amount of time.
Finding an exit in the Land of Fallen Stars naturally involves battling monsters.
Fortunately, Shi Feng doesn't need this adaptation process. He can use most skills effortlessly, easily dealing with lone elites and special elites.
As for Aqua Rose and the others, they use these monsters for practice.
Especially the melee classes, Fire Dance and Flying Shadow.
Each faced a Level 27 elite werewolf warrior, constantly using skills in battle.
Fire Dance wielded her dazzling Truefire Raging Blade, creating a red flash as it plunged into the werewolf warrior's body. With a pull and a slice, a spray of blood appeared, and a damage of 2749 points immediately appeared above the werewolf warrior's head. However, with a health of 42,000 points, this damage was insignificant.
System: Eviscerate completion 56%, skill proficiency +1, 69% of skill effect achieved.
Fire Dance glanced at the battle system prompt and frowned slightly, not satisfied with this Eviscerate.
The werewolf warrior roared and swung its warhammer at Fire Dance. Fire Dance easily dodged the hammer's strike with a shift of her feet, reversing her grip on the Truefire Raging Blade. With a spin, the starfire-emitting blade plunged into the werewolf warrior's back in a fluid motion.
Backstab!
-2523
"Awooo!" The werewolf warrior suddenly cried out in pain.
System: Backstab completion 69%, skill proficiency +2, 83% of skill effect achieved.
The use of Backstab was more skilled and precise than Eviscerate, directly raising the completion level, but Fire Dance was still not satisfied. In the past, she could easily deal this kind of damage even without a weapon like the Truefire Raging Blade.
After only a few practice runs on the werewolf warrior, Fire Dance fully realized how difficult it was to master the new combat system!
Because there were many more variables involved. The power of a player's skills was entirely determined by the player's completion, unlike before, where using a skill would unleash 100% of its effect.
But that was no longer the case…
Substandard skill movements could even result in negligible damage.
And achieving standard movements in combat was even more difficult.
Overall, the current combat mode was at least two levels harder.
Fire Dance could originally easily handle one or two special elites and even considered challenging leader monsters. But now, even dealing with a single special elite was difficult, let alone a leader monster.
On the other side, Flying Shadow was also frowning, becoming increasingly speechless as he fought.
After a period of effort, Fire Dance could at least achieve a completion of over 50%, with her Backstab skill even reaching 70%. But he could only achieve 50% completion with the simplest Shadow Strike skill, barely earning skill proficiency, and none of his other skills reached 50%.
Compared to Fire Dance and Flying Shadow, the magic classes achieved high completion after a period of practice, all above 60%. However, this was because the movements for the two were different. Magic users relied on writing and chanting to use skills, and some only needed gestures and simple incantations, making it relatively easy to cast. The casting time was longer than before, especially when using advanced magic.
While everyone was practicing their skills, Shi Feng, who was at the forefront, was on a killing spree.
Facing dozens of werewolf warriors, Shi Feng went straight in, opening with a Wind Lightning Flash.
One… Two… Three…
A full five streaks of azure lightning flashed across the bodies of all the werewolf warriors, causing large swaths of damage.
-2060, -2706, -3521, -4543, -6020…
In an instant, the health of dozens of werewolf warriors dropped by nearly half. Some even became critically wounded due to critical hits. In addition, due to the Wind Lightning Flash's damage amplification effect, they would take 30% more damage afterward.
But these were not the most important things; what mattered was the Wind Lightning Flash completion.
System: Wind Lightning Flash completion 83%, skill proficiency +3, 97% of skill effect achieved.
Immediately afterward, Shi Feng leaped into the air, raising the Abyssal Blade high. Thunder and fire power burst forth on the blade as he struck down on the werewolf warrior horde.
Boom!
All the werewolf warriors within a 10x10 yard radius were stunned and took over 7000 damage. Critical hits dealt over 14,000 damage, and critically wounded werewolf warriors fell directly to the ground.
System: Yan Lei Burst completion 74%, skill proficiency +2, 89% of skill effect achieved.
After landing, Shi Feng used a Slash, hitting three werewolf warriors in a row, each dealing over 2800 damage.
System: Slash completion 85%, skill proficiency +3, 100% of skill effect achieved.
In no time, dozens of werewolf warriors were wiped out.
Aqua Rose and the others, who had been watching Shi Feng's battle from afar, were all dumbfounded.
Everyone had experienced how difficult skill completion was, but after seeing Shi Feng's battle record, they felt nothing but shock.
As for killing dozens of elites, no one felt anything special. They were just elites, and everyone present could do it. Although skills were difficult to use, everyone's normal attacks were still very impressive due to their equipment. It was just a matter of how long it took to deal with these elites.
What shocked them was that they had desperately practiced for over four hours to barely reach 50% completion, but Shi Feng easily achieved around 80%, and even the least familiar Yan Lei Burst had a completion of over 70%…
But that wasn't all. Shi Feng's every move was so casual and fluid, yet he could still achieve such high completion. How could they not be shocked?
"Guild Leader, can't you teach us how to improve skill completion?" Aqua Rose was extremely envious of the high completion.
"That's right! I don't ask for much, just enough to easily reach 70% completion." Blackie was completely overwhelmed by the completion system.
The initial completion increase was quite fast, reaching 50% in less than half an hour. But it took over three hours to increase from 50% to 60%, and the further they went, the harder it became to increase completion. Now, it had almost stopped…
With a completion of around 60%, they could only unleash six or seven tenths of their previous strength. If the completion could be stabilized at 70%, they could almost unleash their previous strength.
If the completion reached 85%, the skill effect would be 100%. If the completion could reach above 85%, the skill effect would exceed 100%.
If they could practice all their skills to easily exceed 85% completion, their combat power would definitely improve a lot compared to before.
Everyone was very eager for this, but it was too difficult.
"Do you really want to know how to improve completion faster?" Shi Feng put away the loot and looked at everyone with a smile.
