Most of the time I'm trying to lower my recovery.
I'd have to ask about the set bonus tho, is it from another cleric only? Or applies to self heal also? By how much? 20 means 20%? Kinda ambiguous as usual.. typical tooltip mastery being as vague as possible. But then again it's only in the preview, so i believe it will get better description once it hits live shard.
You gain an Aura that increases the Healing Received from Cleric spells of allies within 50' by -20
1. Cleric spells of allies ....... not your own then?
2. within 50' by -20 ........ is this really minus 20 ?
"Mod 6. Oh my f****** god. It gutted the game pure and simple. And what wasn't gutted was messed up by the poorly thought out new level cap and equip. The game never recovered from that atrocity".
..............not this one then.............
Recovery is useless for most DC, we overstacked it too much with our gear and artifact, and now we even got 250 more from boon.
Regardless, does this heal only allies and not the cleric? If so, how is this better then MH? or even comparable. You can slot a few ARP enchants as well....
Not that I have any great faith that anything they are doing for the cleric is actually worthwhile.. My hopes for this class has been repeatedly bashed around for the last 6 months or so since I had it at 60 .. read the notes this morning, something about how chains is being fixed so it doesn't hit it outside its radius or something.. great, wonderful, how about making it work all the time for the people IN the radius ?
Ha...
My thoughts: Pretty good for my DC but I have a really stupid build that capitalises on dps with no focus on recovery whatsoever. IF arpen is fixed I would consider it but then.. My corrupted set is really good for dps so maybe not.
As for the bonus.. What? Is that going to work for my own spells? If so.. very nice. If not.. Still sticking with corrupted.
Maybe it looks nice *shrug*
Even if it doesn't decay the 2x set bonus (1% AP gain, which will probably be on every set for other classes too) is seriously <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>.
The fact is that at the high end, DCs are not really wanted for their healing in PvE groups, but for their buffing/debuffing. What this really means is that armor sets that help with healing are kind-of pointless, compared to armor sets that help with buffing/debuffing.
Unfortunately, the only armor set that really helps high-end DCs to do their job is the High Prophet - a humble T1 set. I really with they would understand that and give us a viable upgrade for that set instead of this <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>.
I HATE the peck and poke search method of trying to get your gloves and main hand, just loathe the system.. so many top tier wins and just green rewards.
PvP sets
The empire set has no Tenacity, so it is obviously not a PvP set.
PvE solo sets
The ArPen might be nice for a solo DC, but the set bonus is completely pointless for a solo set.
PvE group sets
The set bonus might make sense for a PvE group set, but the stats are just wrong - I mean, when a DC is in a group, he/she is not there for DPS, but either for healing or for buffing/debuffing. What you would like in the armor set world be set bonuses that would help with those roles, and stats like Recovery, Crit and Power - ArPen and Life Steal are pretty much useless.
So, my conclusion is that the set misses the point completely - it is not a PvP set, not a good PvE solo set and not a good PvE group set. It is not a good set at all...and I really hope the set will not be required to unlock some area, like the Currupt/Purified Black Ice sets....it is very annoying to have to work so long for some inferior object.
I have said it before - what the DCs really need is a viable upgrade for the High Prophet set - a set that actually helps with buffing or debuffing. We have good PvP sets, we have good PvE Solo sets, we have good sets for PvE group purposes, specifically for healing, but the Empire set is just not good, not needed and not appreciated.
So, if you agree with me that the set is badly thought out, blease head over to the Preview forum, and complain in the DC feedback thread - if there are no complaints, there is no chance that this will be changed.
It would be nice if they can make the option available like the did with the BI gear, which you can upgrade using your black ice, something similar to upgrade the current T1 & T2 sets to a T3 set.
wondering what they smoke, need that too haha
On the stats: power en crit is very good for cleric although arpen is al little bit off its not that bad with all the diminisching returns i need other stats to spread out the points, with the armpen fix to many of our encounters maybe we can feel the difference more and its good for solo stuff.
im feeling bad comments coming on so want to close with: All this is just my humble opinion
