New Terrifying Insight is useless
I would really appreciate the new horrible terrifying insight for DO to go back to a group buff, this version is useless and unwanted and we were promised also that it would only be nerfed to 10% group. It doesn't do anything, the best DO class feature is useless now and does nothing.. thanx.. no buff icon anyways and i tried it on a dummy same damage stats than without loaded.. please put it back to a group buff no one makes a cleric to be a dps class, that's just ignorant! This is really annoying to the point it makes me not enjoy my class anymore as i used to and feel inefficient in high level groups i am a group DO not solo dps and probably closer to a tank than a dps... clean up this mess you did to DO please. You have it all upside down DO are actually better healers than AC and AC are better dps buffs. Did the person who did this laim change even know what a DO is?

Seems to be working now, though have not ACTed it.
No Icon, but you apply it by damage, not passive.
I use aoe (DGlow, Chains) on mobpacks, then they seem to receive the debuff.
I agree that this DO nerf was terrible idea.
DO was neither OP nor the cause of the 2DC meta. This doesn't correct either.

It would be nice to have a viable DO build for those again, hoping mod 16 changes and makes the build more useful, i prefer playing DO. But for now for endgame stuff i would suggest AC buffer build with tons of cooldown reductions for the player and group, seems the most useful at the moment for the heavy endgame stuff. The hit on terrifying insight is just too heavy for dps race bosses. Let's hope this is just temporary and soon DO can shine also again.
DPS DO doesn’t perform as well in a low buff party since bosses outliving the initial duration of Avatar leads to a sharp drop-off in damage, but with good support it’s as ridiculous as any traditional DPS and brings additional party support, so it’s not a bad option at all since AC is going to win the buffer war regardless.

Just a FYI...a DO can one phase Orcus just like a CW, TR, SW, etc...
You never saw Orcus’ attacks in CN, is. Balls, portals, aoe...?

And this is nice one, OP devo as main DPS:
No offense to anyone, but usually (not always) people who are very experienced and well versed in the game, do not solo public queue. The public queue will be the last option from the list, starting from guild, friends, custom channels etc.. It's by far the worst, and not by skill, or gear, but even just by communication, cooperation and general attitude.
I'm saying this only to emphasize how much different I believe is the experience for players that rely on the public queue and those that do not.
This is one of the few games where we are limited in the roles for each class; in other MMO games I have played, typically all classes have the ability to play two or more roles. Hopefully NWO provides all class, like the OP, the ability to play at least two roles in content. Role for each class can easily be determined by the Paragon Path we pick.
For instance a buffer role could be assigned to CW if the paragon path picked is MoF; so a CW qing into content as a MoF would be consider a buffer. This goes back to my AC and DO comment. Same can be applied to a GF SwordMaster is DPS and Iron Vanguard is the tank. What type of DPS you are (buffer or pure DPS) would be determine by feats.
There are just some thoughts but honestly each class really needs to be rebalanced further to have a 2 role system for each class in this game.
And to all of these "One/Two/Three Shot" Videos.....the balance seems like..... balanced lol....id really appreciate some sort of "powersharing caps/buff caps" and so on.....and tbh...i didnt run those K-Team Challenges yet but im also not interested in running them just for a 600 Itemlevelgear
> The changes to DO are long over due but the devs forgot one thing and that is allow the DO to Q as a DPS into content. If that was included in this mod it would have been a good win for DCs that want to play as a DPS vs. buffer.

No.
Asterdahl has repeatedly explained this in the Mod16 Preview forum.
You will not be able to change roles in public Q/random Q.
Therefore, DPS/DPS classes can change paragon inside a dungeon but NOT DPS/Support.
If you Q as a healer DC you will NOT be able to change to Arbiter inside a public/random dungeon.

It's also the reason 99% of players over 15k are terrible at the game and can't adapt to Mod16. There are 22k+ players struggling while 17k players of the exact same class build are having no problems.
