you guys have fixed the problem with multi proccing, more or less.
but you guys need to REMOVE THE AMPLIFIERS of that, the damage from lostmauth gets buffed from it.
this needs to be fixed. so the damage wont multiply making lostmauth set doing exageratte damage of over 100k unmitigated damage, this should be tonned down.
Im not really sure what to say about the lostmauth set at this point but I will say this:
In pve, it is BIS for every single dps class whether you can use the stats on the belt or not. I think that shows that something is out of line. For most classes its 15-25% of your dps. For some it can be upwards of 30%. If anyone wants to dispute this fact I will be more than happy to provide ACT logs of every dungeon run I do over the next week to satisfy you. Caster/melee -> doesnt matter. This is the best PVE dps set hands down, and I think thats a problem.
While I haven't gone through any ACT logs yet, there must be a good reason everyone uses it now, pve or pvp.
In pve, it is BIS for every single dps class whether you can use the stats on the belt or not.
That's just not right. I would suggest nerf to the point where players really have to benefit from the stats the set gives to make it worth using, not just pick it up because of the set bonus and not care about anything else.
So far, Ive only ever seen a GWF lostmauth proc approach 100k but having said that, its not very relevant. Any class can produce a steady stream of 20-50k procs non-stop when you build around it.
Just so my position is clear, I dont think it should be toned down until there are a LOT of pve buffs thrown around OR dungeons are rebalanced. GWF DPS in PVE is in a great place right now and honestly I think that gwf dps with the set should be the bar they should use to measure/balance the other dps classes against. T2 dungeons require that level of damage output to actually feel like a fun game rather than an exercise in masochism. After some semblance of fun is restored to running dungeons THEN they can take a look at things like this. Just my opinion. I have no comments with regards to PVP at this time.

YOU have already buffs FOR tier 2 run
1.Devoted cleric: divine glow:buff debuff heal.
Astral shield:40% damage resistance and mitigate damage empowered.
hallowed ground 20%damage resistance and damage.
2.guardian fighter: into the fray : equal to his damage resistance is his damage buff+ action points generation during the buff and speed.
knight valor 40% damage resistance and guardian fighter get the half damage of the players and build bonus threat.AND ofcourse the combat advantage from mark and tide of iron debuff.
renegade wizard has also town of buffs and also does and control hunter ranger with longstrider shot + the fox cunning gwf sw pure damage dealers.
paladins with wow of enmity bane circle of power.BUFFS are available think how to use them:)

Then it doesnt change the fact that its even BETTER for classes like TR/CW that can get 100% crit chance.
Better solution would be to add an ICD on it, leave amplifiers, then address classes that can get crazy amplifiers (like GWF) and tone then back while increasing base damage.
NO class should have more than 100% damage amplifier. Period. So if a class has more than 100% (not from Power or STR) then it needs to be addressed by they need to deal DOUBLE the damage to have their damage be "inline". If a class needs 100% damage bonus, what they REALLY need is an increase in base damage instead and a REMOVAL of some damage bonuses.
^ exactly!
and fyi there are players that can even make it procc for 200k, so its not just BS like other says.
so in other words some of the amplifiers should be removed.
to be tonned down, the only amplifier that needs to be there should be
damage bonus from power for example.
things like destroyer purpose and focused destroyer that give more 102.5% damage bonus to the GWF class should not affect the lostmauth set.
in other words, this needs to be tonned down.
Or they shouldnt be there AT ALL!
Remove the whole **** damage bonus from both feats for all I care and then give GWFs 100% increase to BASE damage. Net same spot.
All these damage bonuses are just ****! ITs ruining the game.
always the same cry only because some one is ahead of you in paingiver . why i dont see any complaint about how OP can be better than gf ? oh thats because who takes more dmg doenst interest me, i want to be in top of paingiver so i can fell that im good in something.
This set is indeed completely broken/OP and deserves to be hit with the nerf hammer pretty hard. I'm in the process of collecting logs to provide more data. So far the worse case is GWFs, already top damage without lostmauth, but now with +30% extra, free damage with it. CWs, +20-25%, TRs, +20%. Still need SWs and HRs logs to make my point, but I suspect the buff will be somewhat similar.
The set is ridiculous and I refuse to use it or encourage people to use it. It needs an instant nerf right the heck now. It should NOT be affected by anything, buff/debuff/armpen, simply straight out weapon damage and that's it. I've seen 100k's flying on a proc it's just hilarious. To me it's an exploit like all others and is not working as intended. And if it is, something's super wrong here.
I think the set is working right for HR now that gushing wound is fixed to not multiproc it. It does around 8-10% of my overall dps on my trapper, with 50+% crit chance on my char sheet.

I have an idea - delete all buffs, form all items / sets / feats & do the same abilities for all - then everything will be great :cool:
...then anyway someone starts to cry, and beg for nerfs for players ;>

They've been quiet on the subject.. I'm hoping today's(?) patch (is it coming? ;D) tones down the damage a little bit.
Otherwise I'm gonna have to start shopping for lostmauth artifacts. Anyone have a Hoard Necklace cheap? ;D

They cant "tone it down a little bit" the only way to fix this was be remove damage bonuses affecting it which will cut the damage of the set by like 2/3rds meaning itll deal literally ~ 1/3rd the damage it does now for most classes. Thats not a little bit anyways.
I have posted the REAL solution and that would be to add an ICD to it, so a class (this is JUST ONE EXAMPLE) TR cant spam COS in stealth and get a proc every time. With ~ 4-5 sec CD, it would be MORE fair for MORE classes without hurting damage as much.

I'm refusing to use the set and my damage is wonderfully fine. I still outperform every single lostmauth set user, I think people will be fine without broken 25% of their DPS taken away. No ICD, just a nerf bat. Think of PVE, it can crit up to 100k A PROC. Just like they did to Deep Gash. No external buffs, can't crit, that's it. 2k a proc and there we go, a perfectly balanced set that's on par with the other sets in-game.
It's working just about right for HRs, here's a screenshot from the tiamat that I just attempted, I was using feytouched, which buffs my attack, but it should be buffing lostmauth's vengence too, so wouldn't have been much different with another enchant. I also have about 57% crit chance on char sheet not counting crit chance from serpent stacks.
As you can see there's a lot of crit, and the set still only contributes to 6% of my overall dps. It's usually around 8% in most normal fights that I'm in. I was trying out something, so somehow it was a bit lower in this fight.
I'll run some with my TR and post some results for that as well.

Here's on for my TR in a PvP, does about 13% of my overall dps, which doesn't seem that bad. However I was not running the staying in stealth and cast CoS as I don't find that fun at all.

It needs a pretty substantial nerf, to the point where it's not strictly better than every other set for pretty much every class, but rather just one of several viable ones.
I agree. There are two ways to Nerf it.
1) make it a flat weapon damage proc. No damage modifiers.
Issue: This benefits classes that can stack crit higher than others (like TR or CW).
2) put an ICD on it. Around 3seconds should work.
I think this is the best option. It levels out which classes get the best benefit. A TR or CWs crit advantage is gone. Classes with slower attack speed like GF gain almost as much benefit as others now.
This would bring the total damage down <10% for MOST classes (I think CW might still be over 10% but IDK).

Or, idk, remove the damage by proc altogether and make it a flat increase to Crit Severity (say somewhere along the 5-10% mark)
