That AP gain mount is going to be 'interesting'. Soulbinder Damnation Warlocks have an AP gain build and having one of those dramatically changes the playing field relative to other specs and classes. If even that epic mount goes live as is, honestly, I wouldn't need new artifact equipment, higher tier gear, or set bonuses…

I'll chime in and just say to each their own, everyone has to find what works best for them. I will vouch for the companion issue and say your choice of companions is highly dependent on the type of build you want. I run an AP build, typically 3 of my companions are Sprites, it's practically mandatory. If you are Damnation…

quspiv I see your point, but I respectfully and wholeheartedly disagree. The Soul Puppet's damage is central to the spec, Mod 6 required a buff on the order of 8X to get the spec's damage output up to a respectable level. Anyone who played Damnation in Mod 5 (like me) knows those dark times. Gutting that feat would ill…

For the OP I understand some of the issue with overall damage output, but to simply say all of the abilities listed are 'useless' isn't accurate. The primary reason you gave in most cases is damage. Killing Flames: I don't think this has ever left my bar and I am strictly Damnation. It's a finisher and when used right, can…

I agree with some of your points, but I will say the feats you mentioned above are actually better than you give them credit for. Burning Puppets will average about 2500 damage every 4-6 seconds even on a bad streak which doesn't happen you are compensated by Parting Blasphemy until the next one is applied, plus it…

I'll say this, I have played Damnation since day 1. I haven't seen the Soul Puppet bug and have configured my path several different times. I'm a little skeptical on that one until someones posts an ACT parse showing Wraith Claw doing that much damage per second. Not just a total overall damage parse. Sometimes I think…
-
Just to clarify for Damnation a Soul Puppet uses Wraith Claw every 1.2 seconds, this excludes the AoE Spiritfire ability. Which is why it is useful for proccing enchants and abilities that require numerous hits..(ie Plaguefire Enchant). It hits far more frequently than 90 times in an entire dungeon. It will hit 90 times in…

If you use an AP Gain build as a Soulbinder this feat setup is quite good. http://nwcalc.com/index.html#/sw?b=1oa5:k6rwk5:8dep:5tb7d,1x0iu1i:150u000:1u0uz5v:1000000&h=0&p=slb

You can still get sparks from DoTs that snapshot crit. http://www.reddit.com/r/Neverwinter/comments/312jdm/soulbinder_damnation_sparks_dots_and_snapshotting/

The salt is strong in this one.
-
The Puppet Seems to be doing about 8.5 times the amount of damage with Wraith Claw (@12000) per hit.
-
My own recovery is 2215, AP gain is 26.4% (prior to attacking a cursed target) with six points in Energizing Curse. Spirits does about 22K, My AP gain is sufficient enough to cast Spirits again as the first one expires. With a Sigil of Devoted equipped I can cast a second daily before Spirits ends.
-
I have mentioned this before about this feat in a prior post . Even if the Puppet had more HP the premise of the feat is not a good one. As it stands now I wouldn't recommend allocating any feat points to this feat, unless things change most Damnation locks need to skip this feat entirely.
-
Wraith Claw doesn't crit, it never has, nor do you get Action Point gain from it.
-
denvald, I'd be curious to know what your lifesteal percentage/severity numbers are. I am wondering if that percentage is being calculated for the soul puppet, and then having the 15% applied. Also with Spiritfire, I am wondering if the the feat is being calculated with an ArP of zero and the target's damage resistance…

@grumblesmorf I posted about damnation separately. There are a couple different ways to play it, for example as Hellbringer you could build a lock who doesn't really want to use your daily at all based on the Flames of Empowerment Class Feature. For Soulbinder Damnation you could make a build that relies on 100% uptime of…
-
I would recommend going with Burning Puppets as your last choice. I have listed the reasons why in a previous post.
-
@vaelynx Depends on which paragon path you choose as Damnation can have two very different playstyles.
-
Should have clarified PvE BoVA: Not really a fan of getting in melee range and is easier to keep up CA with the Soul Puppet from ranged rather than jumping in mobs. DT: DT's cooldown for me is 12s for Immolation it's 15s and it's duration matches my AP gain. Not a fan of having everything locked out of my bar while it's…
-
Feedback Mocking Spirit: I have previously indicated why I am not a fan of the upcoming Mocking Spirit Feat based on the empowerment theme of being a Damnation Warlock. However if the feat is going to be implemented I would suggest at some point adding another component to the feat. Linking the health pools of the Soul…

No you can’t summon ‘multi-puppets’ only one. I still say the path is fun. The Soul Desecration buff is still a bit confusing reading it from the feat tree. If you look at the buff in the upper left on your character the wording makes more intuitive sense. Damnation locks don’t have to worry about specifically using powers…

The CON belt will increase your damage bonus and hit points which in turn will affect your healing output ,and your Compounded Soul feat. The CHA belt will increase your critical chance and combat advantage damage and companion bonus which in turn impact your Hope Stealer and Vampiric Sparks feats, Yes as a soulbinder…

From a Soulbinder Damnation PvE point of view. [All Consuming Curse: For Damnation is feature is repetitive. The Burning Puppets feat already does this without relying on crit. This class feature will only seems to widen the gap between both paragon paths and the Fury/Damnation specs in dps output essentially making a…
-
Not disagreeing with you on the value of Tyrannical Threat. TT is a very, very good daily. It's also very situational. TT requires a certain amount of preparation, has a big wind up, and requires multiple targets. There is a reason there are two daily powers available. Not every PVE situation will allow for that, and it…
-
As as Damnation Soulbinder with the feat, you can expect to have Immolation Spirits up 80-85% of the time in combat with sufficient AP gain. In parses Immolation Spirits easily do 30-35% of your damage depending on how you manage your Soul Sparks. That Daily with the extra five seconds can be ready before the first set of…
