Just wondering if anyone has weighed up the Lostmauth set for CWs. I know that the stats +2 STR/+2 dex aren't great, but the extra weapon hit on every crit is intriguing - maybe it is more viable for PvP then PvE. Just thought i'd see if anyone else is considering looking into it? It would obviously need to be worth the -4…
-
Is the best idea really until the new stat curves, new stat adjustments and new feats are understood. I know as a PvP CW, I'll probably have to re-spec off CON, which is exciting actually, so will be fun to see how it goes. At work at the moment watching the clock.... I'll be interested to see Icy Vains vrs Spell Twisting…
-
Intriguing. So with that coupled with the chilling advantage feat, and slotting chilling presence obviously, you are gaining +15% crit chance from the renegade tree now. That is pretty gold considering the new scales.
-
I assume, after reading it's description, that it doesn't add +5% to the individual and only the team? Been too lazy to jump on the preview server this mod.
-
I don't know if the Lifesteal "nerf" will be as bad in PvP as in PvE. I can see how it will be negative for AoE skills, but I think it could actually be better for single target spells. It is going to synergize with Regeneration a lot more then it currently does. I still don't think that Oppressor will be able to deal…
-
Is Chilling Advantage still bugged? If so, what does the bug involve? I missed out on a few months when this occured.
-
Race wise, what is everyone thinking for Mod 6? I'm more PvP side, so it may vary, but from all the discussions I've had with other PvP CWs is that CON doesn't look like it'll be a priority in Mod 6 with all the HP gain from sets (though this may change if the PvP set get's deleted/changed - which is looking likely).…
-
Yeah i managed to get it after the 2 week ZAX wait. Worth the artifact alone to be honest, and selling the dragon hoard enchantment for 2.5 mill nearly made the initial AD cost back. The Race Re-Roll was useful post mod-4 changes, and some of the clothes are nice. Haven't used the race just yet, but one day maybe.
-
Just a question regarding the incoming healing bonuses; does this influence life steal and regeneration incoming healing? The new battlefield medic could suit my PvP build (i know open world is basically dead, but meh i want to finally get some companions other then a stone).
-
Interesting data. Just a question... Rimefire smolder as a Thaum Spell Storm CW? Is that your damage from converting another CWs smolder? Never really ran an ACT next to a MOF CW, so i have never seen that before.
-
All of the enchants (Draconic Rank 8, Dragon Hoard Enchantmet, and all the Blue, Red etc) in the dragonborn pack, which are meant to be Bind on Equip, are apparently coming up as Bind on Account at the moment. Everyone that previously bought it apparently had them BoE, but some got it today and have found them BoA. I…
-
Sorry i meant dots, color me embarrassed. I'm a complete derper, I didn't remove creeping frost from my equation when I was looking at my ACT, so i thought that it was my PF that was triggering it. **** i'm a nub xD So i guess we are looking at: 1. Lower the proc chance, leave the damage 2. Leave the proc chance, lower the…
-
All they need to do is make sure that dots can't activate spell storm, and everything in the world will be balanced again. Assailing force has been nerfed twice, and everything else is fine. If spell storm only activates on encounter spells + at-wills; then i don't believe it will be as devastating as it is now. It will…
-
As a guild mate, I believe i should be in every clip of your videos xD But yes, keep the sound effects.
-
It feels like your nitpicking for the sake of it now though. Shield isn't the problem. Remember that pre-mod4, shield was useless, and now that it's decent people are using it (it has already been nerfed pre-live). Remember though it does take up an encounter slot, so it's survivability vs. DPS choice for the CW (and…
-
Agreed. I've been trying to test a MoF build for PvP, but to be honest there isn't anything near capable enough to challenge the SS Thaum or SS Oppressor. It's not even about Storm Spell, it's the fact that you don't get to choose Orb as well (and get the 75% buff on control). Running CC + SoD is a no-brainer, but without…
-
Interesting. I don't think I've seen many PvP CWs using sudden storm. I guess oppressors might be using that to stack chills, but generally it's not the best over-all PvP skill due to it's activation cone. I've seen a lot of SS Thaum Wizards slot: Shield on TAB, CoI, Icy Rays and Choke; with RoF as at-will. Some people…
-
Only really Choke, Steal Time, IT and Shard really give any "control", bar freezing with chill. Shard is not worth the slot anymore, and ST/IT from a PvP point of view are only effective against TR (although this really depends on the build you are running, as Oppressor IT would be gold). Personally i prefer to use IR and…
-
The ironic thing about all of these changes are in mod3 CWs were the one everyone targeted first in a battle because they were easy to kill. Now they are targeted first because they NEED to be killed.
-
I run a INTEL i7, and I'm having the stuttering issue as well; so it's not only isolated to AMD.
-
I've had this too, but at different times to most other people that i know are affected by it. I assume that Cryptic is doing updates in the background of the servers? I'm from New Zealand though, and when i stutter, all the americans i play with are fine, and then when they lag/stutter, i'm fine.
-
Yeah MoF i've found great in PvE, but i haven't found a viable build yet in PvP (1 v 1 anyway). Struggled to juggle between Shield and FtF on TAB for survivability vs instant smolder add, and then rotating the need for Orb/CC and SoD. You done much testing on this?
-
Yeah, but it should never be about nerfing one paragon to balance the other (or nerfing one class to balance another). MoF just needs to be more viable by adding more options to add smoulder if we can't slot Critical Conflagration. FtF is the easiest option for this as it doesn't currently add smolder unless assigned to…
-
I'd still like to see FtF be buffed, in the sense that off TAB it can add smoulder. For PvP purposes MoF seems even less attractive now, as orb of imposition is looking like a must have slot, which means we would have to choose between CC or SoD. Without CC, only FtF on TAB or SB can add smoulder. Without SoD we lose the…

Have sent you a PM. Interested :)
-
What enchant are you using with that build if you dont have EoTS or high crit? PF, Terror or Bile?

-
Wait wait wait wait, hold up there. You're worried about HRs vs CWs? hahaha - sorry, moderators, but this has got to be some kind of joke. You do realise that all CW single target skills were nerfed roughly 30% each. Basically all this skill does is give us back our live single target damage, which lets face it still…
-
So it's only really been corrected for TRs, which was bugged on live, and will stay the same for other classes using it?
-
I have to agree with your points, single target skills need to be reverted back to live or even buffed. I've been testing out the new FtF on test server, and it is really underwhelming now compared to live. Even though they have re-assessed the cast time to 1 second (down from the 1.5 original nerf), the 22 seconds…
