PWI has announced +2 attack level shards coming to us in about a week's time.
This opens up the possibility for seekers to further increase their spike damage on skillls
even more than with a regular DoT build, and might actually have some that have been leaning toward full JoSD build have second thoughts.

What are your thoughts on the matter? Are you going to change your endgame build plans now that you know they're coming?

    i dont think we have much choice. josd or be like them and go like full attk and hope you attack faster and crit first.... or be inbetween. Sharding/stating vit stones hasnt exactly been a huge protecting factor when your against R999s

    Well... I'm too pissed off with PWI atm to actually decide if I can be be bothered to farm some stupid amount of coin to afford these new shards or not.
    I mean, after they are first released we are probably going to be looking at more than 100mil for each shard, MORE than a JoSD probably.
    And that is just stupid.
    Also here is an interesting thought:
    I still believe that for 1v1's and general group PvP (Not NW or TW)
    JoSD's are better for seeker because:

    Sacrificial Slash

    Mana　163
    Channel　1.2　seconds
    Cast　0.8　seconds
    Cooldown　30.0　seconds
    Weapon　Blade

    Required Cultivation　Aware of Vacuity
    Reduce your Defense Level by 40%,
    while increasing your Attack Level by 50% of your reduced Defense Level.
    Lasts for 15 seconds.

    Defense Level is reduced by at least 20.
    The negative effect can stack with defense reduction effect caused by The Eye of the Northern Sky.

    The more defense lvls we have the better the de-buff of Sac slash is, and we can spam that baby every 30 seconds, it's just one skill, but it's a huge part of seeker PvP.

    In general TW and NW PvP, being able to drop a massive AoE on a group of people and knock them back to base/spawn point is a massive advantage, So I guess if you want to shard +2 attack lvl shards you can act like a squishy Mag class, stand behind the front lines, run in, AB/Range AOE spam/Unfetter/Run out, wait for chi/CD and repeat.

    I guess... it is truly up to the individual and their playing style.

    Personally, I don't think I'll be sharding with them though.

    If you've already sharded your gear, i don't think its worth the time and effort. Its good an all but if you can affort to shard this things..chances are you have r9.3 gear or high refines.
    I just think there is a point where the player as to say "I'm powerful enough...I don't need to be a god" thus ending the players sharding frenzy.

    make no sense but yea...
