Is it BiS for PvP or will feytouch remain on top?

    Why I did some tests today, I still see 4% effectiveness on preview. Could the 4% not shown in the effectiveness?

    This enchantment is ridiculously powerful no matter what build you take on a CW.

    Those who attack single-targets should take the Fey, but those who want an overall, all-powerful, omnipotent, meta-godlike enchantment, take the Trans. dread.

    And this is why I'm afraid it will get nerfed, although there's no need for that. It's practically an upgraded version of Vorpal enchantment + terror enchantment. Both enchs very good for a CW.

    What I wonder, though, is how it applies to the Abyss of Chaos. Curiosity.

    I agree that dread is overall very powerful.

    Bur for a pure (mof) support build, plague fire is still a bit better. Maybe many have found it out. I just found it out, the damage resistence debuff of plague fire is multiplicable to the debuff from smolder (double smolder or triple if you count combative action). So effectiveness for plague is 1.2×1.09, 1.4×1.09 or 1.64×1.09. I believe for dread is 1.2+1.04 (1.4+1.04 or 1.64+1.04). So the difference could be much bigger than 5% debuff for the party.

    Edit: Does anyone use a terror? Could anyone confirm if the debuff of terror works same way as dread

    Edit: Anyone know how does different ranks of plague fire work? If it is multiplicable, it could be really worth to stack plague fire of different ranks.

    Plaguefire deserves a decent upgrade imho. It's one of the best enchs for debuffs. No wonder that I see it on the hi-end DCs all the time.
    For a support you can't get anything better, yes.

    Dread is not that good for a debuff,aside for it's amazing critabibablibatilibilitility ^ _ ^ .
