Hi guys,
everybody tells me, that Hand of Blight is way better then Eldritch Blast. Im Fury Path and I like it...because of the animation. Yea thats right, I dont like the animation and "feeling" of the Hand so normally I use the Blast.
Now I got the Artifact Weapon of the Hand with the debuff. I would like to refine it and get the Artifact Weapon of the Blast with the Damageboost.
What do you english experts say? Is the Blast really that weak? Of course on the boss or Dragons I use the Hand, if I do single damage. But normally during Dungeons I make my way with the blast.
PS. One more little question. Is the shore-set really the best for fury warlock? Cause there are 2 Rings and I have my nice little ring from the dragonborn-pack that gives me a damage boost against dragons.

As for an at will, Eldritch blast is fire damage, hand of blight is necrotic. Necrotic > everything for fury SWs, in most cases. Eldritch blast is very useful for soloing though, doing dailies and other stuff with no tough adds. Just my two cents.

not only does it out DPS the others, it generates more AP when you are in melee range as it goes much quicker.
Due to my love for Hand of Blight, I use Blades of Vanquished armies so that I can stay Melee distance. But you need good Def/LS/HP for this playstyle.
Feel free to send me a MSG in game, il run a shores dungeon with you and show you my preferred playstyle.
Second problem is now the artifact belt. ST or CH. ST gives you more direct damage. But the crit vom CH, connectet with the combat advantage (or what its called in english) and the companion buff for the ion stone sounds more effective. I have thes passive with combat advantage on every crit too, so the charisma-belt sounds perfect.
I had CHA belt upgraded to legendary and now decided to switch to CON belt. More flat damage, higher survivability. 41% crit chance is high enough for me. Besides I already got soft cap on def/life steal/deflection so why not some extra hit points?
Everything depends on your stats allocation, I think. If you have lack of crit then go for CHA.

My browser gateway says
25,440 hp
5,240 power
1,343 def
3,401 crit
1,285 recovery
742 Arpen
576 Reg
1,037 Life Leech
80 ?hardy?
125 movement
Mut i still hhave some rank 4 enchants. Till now 24 CON and 24 CH
gateway also doesn't give you the full stats including your stone BTW
I see one problem, you have high con and Cha, that means you neglected your Int instead and with your low armor pen, means your not getting all the DPS you could be.
At this point on your #'s listed, the FIRST thing I would do is start getting more Armor Pen. Literally everything you do to increase your armor pen at this point will = more Damage output.
in pve you can completely remove regen for more Def/Lifesteal/Arpen
your crit rate is more than enough so you can reduce your Crit stat easily if your keeping your CHA so high. I only run about 1900 recovery with the 5/5 encounter cool-down reduction from heroic, but i also split cha and int down the middle (20/20 buffed) and i find 40 % crit rate to be more than enough, but 45% was still good.
UPD Increased my arp to 2k plus learnt that only my necrotic powers have the damage reduced

i have not noticed a loss in dps personally, but ive not been running act much
im at about the same stats in my pve setup, but its possible that they broke resistance ignored, happens often where either the ability itself doesnt utilize it properly, or the stats itself isnt calculating the Int as well.

i ditched killign curse, the damage it gives you just isnt enough and doesnt proc creeping death anyway =(
Executioners gift should increase as he mobs health decreases but i see how come its only mitigating some attacks and not others? like 2 executioners gifts there, but only 1 mitigated something.
