Artifacts pvp cleric righteous level 60+- control bonus?

solbergx

Is control bonus any good for cleric?? I was thinking on switching my artifacts for my righteous cleric pvp level 66.
It should be:

1)shard of valindras crown + belial portal stone +Kessell's Spheres of Annihilation
this offers 1200 control bonus
Does control bonus increases chains of blazing light or break the spirit stun?

or will it be better
2)Oghma's Token of Free Movement +Kessell's Spheres of Annihilation + sigil of the scourge
this offers control resist, combat advantage, and stamina guard.

This is so confusing?

I don't pvp anymore, but I'd say control resist will be more valuable on a dc than control bonus. Our control skills are limited and pretty ineffective. They work better as an interrupt than an actual control. Obviously some pvp clerics would have a better idea. I'm not sure how much pvp dc activity we have on the forum but i know we have a few pvp dcs in the dc channel. I'd check there if no one responds here

you can get contorl resist stat from insignia and after 1.2K its not effective. so one artifact with control resist it is enough
i am not sure if combat advantage do something for DC (we can't control anyone and our attacks are obvious so you can't supprise someone from the behind)
even if you plan to do lot of PVP, you will need to do alot of PVE to progress.

if i had a chance to chose artifacts from start i whod go for:
artifact with HP: wheel of elements, symbol of earth, white dragon, symbol of paladin (HP is allways good PVP stat)
artifacts with deflect: Oghma token, green dragon, sigil of scourage
dragons: white, green, red or black (manily for PVE for the 25% cool time + artifact persuasion spam)
artifacts with power: sigil of DC, red dragon, wheel of elements, symbol of paladin (mainly for PVE)

keep in mind you will need one artifact to fill your set (tiamat, vallhala, black ice...)
and one artifact with good active effect (oghma, sigil of DC, wheel of elements, white dragon, tome of ascendance ...)
