  • <UPDATE> I haven't been playing NW for a at least a week now and it doesn't look like I will be returning to it any time soon. I just wanted to mention that so people don't think I am ignoring their questions. There are plenty of knowledgeable people who follow this thread and I am sure they will continue to provide…
  • Yes, multiple CWs running this build is perfectly viable.
  • Destroyer + Vigilant Set + 1500 Life Steal + Mighty Leap + Daring Shout = Most AOEs, Red Circles, Red Cones, stacked red circles/cones become trivial. In fact you'll sometimes be running to the red circles just to get hit to keep perma Unstoppable.
  • With regards to what is this spec for? I think you really need to read the OP, not just look at the spec link. Here is what I wrote exactly: With that mentality, this spec does the following in an extremely efficient way: - maximize AoE damage, while still doing excellent single target dps - maintain maximum CC, and not…
  • I can insult someone all day long without using the word "stupid". Being condescending is a form of insult, especially when it is non-stop. You may call it arrogance, and maybe even think it is something to be proud of, but the rest see it for what it is.
  • But also having little experience with Cryptic, means you NEVER go with what the tooltip/description say. The bigger question is, why are you always hostile and condescending?! lol
  • The obvious answer is that you do not know how to play your GWF, not to mention your comment about Singularity and AoE makes no sense. Since MC doesn't need a tank and this is just a matter of dps, then the real question is, are you honestly trying to convince us that a GF conqueror in T1, cheap gear, and no stone does…
  • No that's just a glitch from the feat calculator site.
  • The reason why I had Elemental Empowerment before because originally the setup was CoI, Icy Terrain, Steal Time, and Shield. You had two Encounters to proc the bleed, and 2 encounters to apply the debuff. To me the bleed was not that big of a deal, and it was more about the debuff. Now that Shield is hardly ever on my bar,…
  • You keep making the same incorrect assumption about Destroyer not being able to handle tanking. People like me, ARE telling you that it is done, and I do it everyday, ANY T2, any epic mobs, 10+ mobs, Boss + adds, mini boss + adds, Spellplague last phase with a gazillion adds. And before you assume I am in some kind of…
  • LOL, holy mother of Necro posts! Good advice is to not read any posts/specs/guides that are more than 2 months or even 1 month old or take them in context of the current state of the game. My CW was my first 60. I leveled him as Renegade and spent quite a few hours at 60 as one. I thought then I knew what I was talking…
  • Patch Notes: NW.5.20130828.4 General: Corrected issues with some powers not being able to properly score critical strikes such as: Storm Pillar, Shard of the Eternal Avalanche and Flamestrike. Control Wizard: Chill class feature: Chill may now properly stack on all Crowd Control immune bosses though it does not slow or…
  • I am not sure I agree. The damage from CoI, plus the added aoe 15% debuff, plus the stacks of chill which not only lead to faster freezes but constantly boosts damage with this spec, not to mention still a very good AP generator (up to 30%), is better than trying to generate a daily a little faster. And then what do you do…
  • It's actually not a Shard vs Sudden Storm. It's more of Shard vs. Icy Terrain. I currently like having two encounters constantly stacking chills. I guess seeing mobs constantly being frozen gives me a sense of purpose. I have no doubt that Shard will increase dps. I think each should choose this one on their own.
  • Now why can't Devs have half your common sense. These are the type of solutions/discussions that need to be discussed on the forums.
  • To spend 31 points in feats, and then use an Encounter on Mastery that doesn't take advantage of ANY of them, provides virtually no dps and basically a single target CC, all this to get some extra AP, to me is a waste. You do your job right, with high AoE dps, you are basically creating an indirect singularity. What do you…
  • Your problem is that you read too much, you assume too much, and you are basing your arguments on both, which have absolutely no basis in reality. If you actually experiment with all the facets of the class, you might see GWFs in a different light. I am not saying you will see them as OP and in dire need of a nerf, but…
  • Because standing in one place 80' away from your target, doing mostly single target dps, providing virtually zero control and utility to the group is a lot of fun? I can assure you no group would ask you to come along a second time. But I guess to each his own. To answer your question, there is no build that was posted…
  • I have been running Destroyer with Powerful Challenge, I will never remove those 5/5 points. I use Daring Shouts often and even that alone makes it worth it as the marks dont fall off as quickly as people think, especially when mobs are being CCd. Also the marks give others a dps boost as well. That said, are you…
  • Agreed, if they fix it, it is pretty cool. Until then I am happy with the Tome.
  • I am currently using a Tome skin. Pretty neat drawing a Storm Pillar from a Tome.
  • You had to TINKER significantly to get to this build, eventhough you were in a Destroyer spec before. So you went from a Destroyer spec that lost 30% damage after the recent patch to a Destroyer build that now tops dps charts again. Wow, I didn't know there was such a wide spectrum of Destroyer builds. I think it would be…
  • Constructive? you mean something like what you just wrote? Or constructive as in coming on this thread and saying how GWF are just garbage and then follow it by posting a new thread about your recent "bronzewood" build stating how your are now topping DPS? My post was spot on. I was pointing the fact that you are still…
  • Sudden Storm, Shard of Endless, Steal Time, Oppressive Force, Maelstorm are all very nice big bursts that would generate very nice heals with Lifesteal. Everything else will top you off nicely as well. Fighting bosses that continuously throw something at you, like Vilandra in MC, while you're topping yourself back to 100%…
  • So you have 25 GWFs on your list. You live, breath, and eat GWF and you know the class inside and out. You run with the Elites of elites who put out major dps. Clearly far better credential than I can claim. And yet your experience led you to believe that Sentinel is the way to go to tank end game content with top tier…
  • And I am sure, you came up with all these statistics crunching numbers and looking at the internal log of Cryptic. Seriously? You actually use this type of BS in real life? No you didnt just stop reading, but you also stop comprehending. I said running MC shows a shrinking in the gap, making the point that all the <font…
  • Dark Enchantments in Defensive Slots Necromancer rings have Defensive Slots Demon Web Wrap 150LS Spirit Cave Orb 270LS Lord Talisman of the Dark 88LS I have a cat, so I get another ring with Defensive slot + another Demon Wrap.
  • Not true. Destroyer spec stacking about 10% Lifesteal is the perfect blend of DPS/Survivability/Threat generation. Ok Mr. reality check. Here is the bottom line. For the same reason that you feel GWFs are the least wanted, I can make the same statement for a GF and even TRs, YES TRs. There is absolutely no reason to bring…
  • You may also want to consider LifeSteal. I'm running with 1500LS, and with our big bursts it's very noticeable.
  • Yea how about this... Spider - GWF runs ahead and get aggro of a train of adds then would make a CW's toss even more meaningful. Spider queen? Surround the queen so she doesnt teleport, everyone goes single target on the queen. Just let me the GWF spam AoE and get all the aggro of the swordmasters/spider. Dont worry I wont…
