    CA for pve and control resist for pvp. I went control resist cause I am around 1800 for ca. That's about 600 over soft cap.
  • wolfsinzwolfsinz Member Posts: 20 Arc User
    Thanks for advice, then I reckon that's the way to go for me as well...5% CR doesn't seem like a lot, but it's better than nothing
  • xrawcarnagexrawcarnage Member Posts: 384 Arc User
    I agree. If you are over the soft cap in CA, it's your best bet. Plus like you said, 5% CR isn't that bad.

    Carnage, what do you mean by essence defiler proccing?....how does it proc?, how do you know it procc'd??
  • bratleyraybratleyray Member Posts: 389 Arc User
    I think he means the final hit in the rotation of essence defiler. It hits the hardest and your toon looks like he is doing jumping jacks when it is cast.

    @bratleyray LOL! I always thought my char looked like it was auditioning for Tony Hawk Pro Skater or 1080 Snowboarding with the consecutive 360s.
  • xrawcarnagexrawcarnage Member Posts: 384 Arc User
    Haha yeah it does. What I'm saying by the proc-ing (fake <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> word) is when a power makes another power climb in number. So when you can make your at will jump in damage eg: first hit is 50k, 2nd hit 55k, 3rd hit 65k etc etc. So I have found when I have a proc going on , the killing flame big hit seems to happen more consistent. At wills seem to proc easier off of other powers for us.
  • wolfsinzwolfsinz Member Posts: 20 Arc User
    Hopefully one of you can answer this. If you have 2 offense slots, is it better to have:
    - 560 Power (2 radiants)
    - 560 Critical Strike (2 Azures)
    Or
    - 300 Power and Critical Strike (2 Brutal)

    All level 8 off course. What about demonic enchant where the focus is on Armpen?

    Looking for the most versatile enchantment for pvp and pve.

    Thanks
  • kolatmasterkolatmaster Member Posts: 3,111 Arc User
    Personally I prefer Brutals, but I'm pretty maxed out...

    I'd choose Azure overy Radiant given a choice between the 2.

    Hope that helps! :)

    Yes! Thanks

    No problem... :)

    Held off on my June/July update because I figured SW Class Balancing was coming, and it's here.

    Lots to review, test, and share (eventually)!

    Wolf, obviously the 600 power and crit is better than the 560, I'm kind of confused about your question.....also I find that if your not going with a full crit build, (getting your crit chance to 80-100%) then stopping at 55-60% crit chance is fine and focusing on power after that...power is always with you, it doesn't rely on a rng roll

    I have a 2145 il sb fury. by everything I have read the higher priority for increasing damage out put is rank up bonding stones on a striker companion-to get the best bang for the buck.
    currently have shadow demon with 9,8,8 bonding stones.
    does this sound like a good path?

    @xs13red

    Definitely a good path to walk down, and Shadow Demon hits hard, but isn't the best active bonus. Maybe Fire Archon eventually... It's Dot is great for procing Protectors Com/Friendship for Insignia Bonuses. :)

    Any advantage to having more con over cha for more damage?

    Hi there,
    I've just started the game (level 16 atm) and looks like this build is 'one of' the ways to go!
    However, where do i find the most updated build as the first post seems to be dated from 2014?

    I've noticed that this game has way more than the usual mmo games and looks way more complex.
    With a build I can focus on I could gradually build upon and start learning the basics :)

    Fernuu has the right of it, I'd read from Page 14 onward, though there will be an update coming in the next few weeks around the time Mod 10 launches so be ready! :)

    I'm wondering about the choice of the last Dread Ring boon.

    Endless consumption seems realy good for a lifesteal oriented class but it's activation is totaly random and it has a serious internal countdown. If it triggers on a lifesteal of a big hit nice but it has statisticaly more chance to happen on a smaler more frequent hit like BoVA or DT, doesn't it?

    On the otherhand, rampaging madness in the best case scenario is equivalent to a ring of brutality bonus that appears only half as much (once every minute instead of once every 30 seconds- again on a best case basis)

    So in your experience @kolatmaster , which of the two is realy the most effective?

    So now I'm slowly creeping towards 70 (64 as I speak) I was wondering wich gear set I should be aiming for to get ready for heroic dungeons and where would I obtain such sets?

    Starting out I'd recommend grinding out some T1 Dungeon gear from Lair of Lostmauth and other Dungeons. Then possibly trying for the Dusk / Drow gear from the Maze Engine Campaign and/or T2 dungeons. I'd also suggest finding a Guild (if you're not already in one!) to avoid having to PUG the dungeons/content, as playing with a group of players is always better... :)

    After reading all thoose 30 pages full of infomative content I would like to commit this too.

    First of all, english is not my native language so I have to excuse for mistakes and my bad spelling.

    Thank you @kolatmaster and all the other folks (hop it is not a bad meaning :o )

    I really enjoy reading all thoose stuff, worked on my own warlock similar to the advices given here. Now I am sitting at lvl 70 after two weeks playing the game with gear score ~1.9k and had to realize that I have to struggle with the companions or artefacts...

    I play on PS4 and there is no possibility to earn a fire archon or even the wheel of elements (or possibilities that I know)...are there any substitudes for that which fit the build?

    I actually play a SB Damnation Build because the SB Fury feels to squishy at the moment (remember iLvl ~1.9k)

    greetings from germany
    Arneee


    Side note: I really enjoy your GIFs @kolatmaster laughing out loud :D
  • fernuufernuu Member Posts: 453 Arc User
    @arnee all depends on what do you need. Naturally Sigil of Devoted should be your Primary so far. For rest just check on your stats: you need ~60% resistance ignored (which is ~5.600 armor penetration - depends on boons etc.). Rest is Power/Crit what matters.

    Good choices are:
    Lantern of Revelation
    Kessel's Spheres
    Black Ice Beholder
    Thayan Book of Dead
    Heart of Blue Dragon
    Sigil of CW
    Sigil of GWF

    @fernuu they likely reached the end of their "sprint" and were not able to address all the bugs prior to release. I bet the devs gather a list of documented bugs and put out a patch in 2-3 weeks depending on the cumulative severity of issues.
