Hi, i want to try again but now it is directed to the wider community- to all of you. This is my point of view, not everyone has to agree with it. So thats my problem :

L4yrGZz.jpg

This is the only right new Drow set for pvp CW because has got HP and a lot of tenacity what is generally base for pvp. Rest is just useless in my opinion some kind of recovery or regen without hp is just funny. Look at stats of this set- alot of crit and arm. pen. that means this is DPS set. In my opinion this is completely ill idea. Many times i heard something like this: "Control wizard isn't DPS class, he should be controller" etc. Aside from the fact that my stuns are shorter than HRs and especially TRs who have got 4 sec daze and i have problem to land ice knife because my control continues again 0,2-0,5 sec.

What else- please look at 4/4 bon - for CW's who are using shield on tab this is just hopeless. In fact there is no bon for tabbed shield. And what is the way out of this situation? I can see onyl one way. Without shield we are again squishy as hell, but we have no choice because we lost our bons from set- we must set all on DPS- Cryptic force us to do it. I have tanky CW with much defense, hp, ca, deflection regen + lifesteal now with new set it will be just worthless. With this set i can see only one solution -> spell storm-> chilling presence-> RoE or icy rays on TAB to full dmg and p.vorpal and ofcourse no defensive stats so live or die in 5 second of pvp. 80-100k from ice knife in pvp is already possible, now when this set will enter to live rest of skills will be doing massive damage too. Some people like to deal big numbers in pvp but it should be one of possible ways to play and now it is only one way to pvp CW so i dont think so it is funny to all CWs and other classes. Please Think about it before you enter these really bad changes in live server this will broke this game again...

    They do have overload slots lmao.

    Black Ice will be irrelevant to every single class except CW (And maybe SW).

    black Ice will be irrilevant for all, expexially with two slots rings and the big lack of tenacity.

    I share completely obsydian666 post, since I have a similar build and, after TR rised DMG, shield on tab is a must for pvp.

    So, qhat's about a thing like: "the mastery power will be 30% more effective" or something like, in this way we can have a stronger shield or a stronger dps, but after all, a choice.

    My point is: Shield on tab has no bon, so only one possibility is DPS CW, and with this set + well-chosen rotation + p. vorpal etc. I heard many oipinion that the CW isn't DPS class but it all comes down to this is must for pvp now. No control, no defense nothing but pure dps, dps, dps and again more dps and i dont like it.
