Introduction

Weapon Tagline :

It is the beyond of absolute unity and the source of all beings. When it exists in silence, the dream formed by the interwoven ideas will give birth to external thorns, akin to the harbinger of echoes.

It was here that she opened her eyes for the first time. The exceptional creature stepped into the world, walked through all things, and then said, "I believe the beauty of humans comes precisely from their error"

The weapon is made for the latest valkyrie arriving in v6.6 that is Dreamweaver, will be referred to as DW in the article going forward.

HI3 v6.6 Introduces the new weapon Prophetic dreams: Self-Fulfilling. This is a javelin type weapon which provides physical damage buffs along with crit damage, sp regeneration and unique multiplier to DW. This weapon is designed designed around DW's playstyle and various mechanics around her. In further section I would like to provide more details and insights into this weapon, its use cases, stats and other details.

Weapon Comparison

In this section I'll go over other weapons that can be used on Dreamweaver(DW) and how they compare to Prophetic Dream pri

Weapon Test Pool

The above image shows all the weapons that I will be using to test the damage output of the weapon in dps test stage of Beta.

For sake of equalizing stigmata stats, all the sets that are used in test runs have the same affix values with same support gear. Rotation is as shown in the video below. Values have been averaged over multiple runs and captains should take these values as estimation.

Actual values may differ based on rotation and boss mechanics.

Note : DW has heavy crit variance hence SI is used as support in DPS tests to mitigate crit rate issues

PS :Game only has 4 Javelins, so not much sample space :)

DPS Test Video

Note : DPS Tests do not show the SP differences that arises as a result of not using signature gear

Author's Impressions

As mentioned in DPS tests, this weapon is a the best weapon for DW, First off Javelin is a new type of weapon and DW is the first valk to get javelin signature weapon. Since the category is so new there are no alternatives to go for as of now. So either captain's have weapon or they do not possess a functioning DW. Given how saturated physical is at this point DW needs all the damage she can get so that she is viable over other options (like SS+ BK, HS, SSS MPE etc)

Without the weapon damage falls of a cliff cause the only option is a forgeable 5* weapon or a 3* weapon, so definitely recommended to get this weapon if captain's want to use DW at an acceptable level. Maybe in future we may get more physical javelins but as of now that's not the case.

Also DPS Tests do not show the sp buff that this weapon provides and given DW's mechanic of damage scaling in astral body based on the amount of sp consumed, other weapons will incur huge damage loss. DPS test stage provides starting sp which mitigates this disadvantage on other weapons but in real setting and multiple rotations in abyss or MA its significant difference.

Hope this helps captains while planning for her banner :)
