    i dont know if u guys remember but back when tenacity was implemented we had another stats given by tenacity, called
    Armor Penetration Resiliance or someth like that, they might add it back with all this updates, so even if u have huge amount of armor pen in pvp wont matter. so maybe this sorta of enchantments will make their debut.

    Thats a good point. It USED to also act as a negative ARP. So if you have 30% tenacity it would mitigate 30% arp.

    I hope they bring that back

    here are some cool stuff
    i like the idea of 400 points = 1 % on alot of stats
    and 100 points in armor pen = 1%
    HP on defense slot is the way to go.
    i like that the difference between a BIS and not a BIs person will be minimal with the 400 points thing.

    about tenebrous? i dont think it wil lbe wise on builds that needs other stats to add tenebrous, might be good on a GF and a paladin.

    but with stuff like having 15.7k power and u get only 39% dmg bonus at level 70, i dont think the guys that would put their tenes will deal any damage besides the tenes. and for what i know the damage from tenes can be mitigated, i dont doubt it will be a nuisance, but i am pretty sure they wont become a some killin mofos.

    as for Armor Pen if they add the stats that i said on tenacity, you can say byebye to builds with tenes, cuz you will need armor pen at that point.

    the devs said that at lvl 70 you hit harder than at lvl 60, and i didnt quite get an insight.
    are they nerfing the stats like power/critical strike etc. and they are increasing base damage, like weapon damage for example? and they are making a trade off or someth like that?

    or the 15.7k power that at lvl 60 i get 80% dmg bonus and at lvl 70 i get 39% dmg bonus, will they compensate giving on GEAR more POWER , like we will see GWFs with 30k power , just to have the same bonus damage at lvl 60?
    really hard to tell what is their next move.

    So why is terror enchantment so good? Vorpal will have the same 40% reduce to defense while it has reduce to power as well. Wouldn't vorpal enchantment be better then terror? So I don't understand why people are saying terror is so good.

    Not a huge fan of this particular update to our enchants. Pure above Perfect - the heck is that? The word 'perfect' implies the thing is already the best it could be..but anyway. What I see as potential problem is of course the balance, we'll see.

    On preview is impossible to find a negation as well as a holy avenger.. there is anybody that has a perfect one? Or even better a pure/transcendent?

    The negation enchant now can be an extremely good chaise for Tanks (GF/OP) or for support class ( DC/OP) Can anyone confirm that it works as the tool tip say?

    Terror
    qW1LvAg.jpg

    That new Terror is so over the top its not even funny, totally craps on PF. "Reducing defence and power by 40% on every hit" really? So someone hits my 10k power GWF with that and boom im a 6k GWF, are you devs serious? Why would anyone even bother playing a melee tank with high DR? Mod 6 already promises great returns from ArmPen, effectively making it the stat to stack ( kinda like it used to be in the dawn of Neverwinter ), so who cares if my Sentintel for example has capped DR when people can easily breach all of it thanks to ArmPen + a weapon enchantment.. and it can root too.

    The changes I've seen so far give me zero incentive to play PVP in Mod 6 and if I dont play PVP I have zero reason to build a competitive toon ergo zero reason to spend any more money on the game. How much time will it take for new players to reach the same conclusion? Id say not long since they'll be totally destroyed by bis monsters thanks to our lovely elo system. How far do you people plan to go with this 'lets alienate players' strategy ?

    There are so many enchantments, and so many nice option.. but we still have 3 chaises.. I would like to see viable all enchantments, some for debuff, some for controll, some for DPS, some for mitication, some for buffing.. giving everything to one (vorpla, Terror) would change anything.

    Negation is a great example of how an enchantment can be reworked and be great ( as long as it works a per tooltip)

    Contrameasure for terror = negation btw tank class mean tank no?

    Why the tanks class must have high AC, high dr, high hp, high def, high regen, high ls and high crit u think are gods? Im see a tradeoff hum? And the same occur in other classes to...we need tradeoffs and limitations for ALL classes.

    Having all of the above is not what I meant. What I do mean is why play a tank at all when everyone can reduce your defences to zero with some ArmPen and a weapon enchant (PVP)? How bout a crit Fire of the Gods + Pure Terror from a bis DC vs any bis melee tank at 80 feet away? Us melee fighters who have no stealth to hide and have to take every hit will be much easier to kite than we're on live.

    So are they purposely being very vague about what Holy Avenger really does or are they just not good at putting out numbers

    Perfect HA Damage & Heal

    HADamage.jpg

    The only time I saw the radiant dmage over 200 was for a crit. The heal when it does kick in is also less than 200. So you're looking at 1k-2k heal over that 10 seconds. Hopefully it gets better. ;)

    Well its based on level, so I would imagine when you hit 70 itll be much better.

    Also, if you upgrade it past Perfect to the pure or transcendent itll be much better id imagine.

    There is no Pure version now, but there is Transcendent and its tooltip is the same as Perfect - so still "in development" probably. :)

    Does anyone have a screenshot of Transcendent Soulforged's in-game text? Much thanks in advance! These reworks are probably some of the best things that Mod 6 will bring.

    Seems Holy Avenger is best for fast-ticking At-Will attacks such as RoF, DF, and the DC's Punishing Light, to make sure that the 20% chance to proc HA is achieved in the soonest possible time.

    For AoE/Threat Hold purposes, seems Lightning now has a competitor, which is Bilethorn. Hopefully Bilethorn doesn't have any target caps.

    Terror is crazy. Hands down, almost everyone is shocked. And lastly, IMO Vorpal doesn't really need any further buffs but oh well...

    Thank God I built a Perfect Terror back when no one wanted it and use it.

    But alas, I don't PvP.... ah well.
