Wild Hunt Rider

What kind of uptime are people getting out of the WHR buff? I'm thinking about buying one but since its only available on the AH on Xbox (not on zen market yet). I don't want to waste almost 2 million just to find out it's not that good. Visual proof would be great.

    I have not got 1 to drop and play around with it yet. I wouldnt spend that much on 1, more drop every day which will lower the price i reckon. I heard from people seeing them drop in ETotS, LoL, ECC and the mod 10.5 rubbish that i have not bothered with personally.

    On my Trapper, using Gushing Wound, the uptime is close to 100%.

    On the PC, the thing multiprocs and the buff stays up for minutes at a time.

    Like someone else said, on Trapper it's close to 100% uptime, even without Gushing Wound. I tend to do my dailies without Gushing/Longstrider, and it's still up almost all of time time. On PC, it seems to - like I said - multiproc, which means it'll provide the buff from anywhere between the listed short duration to multiple minutes. When it comes to damage boosting companions, this is one of the better ones.

    If the HR (or one of the HRs you team with) happens to like using Fox's Cunning, you can kiss that Wild Hunt damage bonus goodbye.

    I'm sure everyone knows this, because rolling bugnotes.

    But had to write this, because it gives me a devious idea when I team with Issac's HR on my poor scrub HR...

    I would love to be able to have damage floaters on....but without the ability to turn off the numbers and leave the buffs, I find it useless. If I could just turn on buffs, that would be better. The buff button on your buff bar looks like a blue hand. I have it at green and its a little tough to get it up, but once it is up it stays up for a long time. Don't see much of a reason to spend 750k to get it to a 5% chance over a 2%.

    That said, why oh why are all these "On encounter" use things always so buggy with HRs. We are an encounter centric class, but it almost seems like they intentionally break things that we could use heavily just to avoid giving us our day in the OP sun.
