What IS the bleed from Deep Strikes on beta with around 500 Might, anyway? I've uninstalled my beta client with Mirkwood being so close, so I can't check. I'm still not convinced Deep is any good outside boss burns unless the numbers are staggeringly insane, like well over 75 per tick, and that'd be after mitigations.

That plus the 403.2 line bonus should be the total for the set. Ah.. i see what i did, I combined the helm bonus with the set and then divided by the number of peices. Ill fix it tommorow when i add the 3 peice set.

Still, it seems pretty bad that we gain 5 levels and don't...

I mean, will you always get a 2.5k heal? With the increased strain on power consumption in SoM, that is increasingly unlikely. Yes, it's better. It doesn't heal for more, but it is certainly better. I don't really see where you would ever need the extra 200...

Quote: Originally Posted by head0nfire Ok, I think we can agree that ardour is "middle of the road".... but what exactly is that? When do you actually use ardour? If you need defense, ardour screws your avoidance almost as badly as fervour does.... if you need DPS, it doesn't have any damage bonus and has a slow fervour generation rate..... if you need to tank, you can't pull any aggro in ardour. So just when do...

Reaver can just bleed, sunder, disarm, and miss chance...

Flurry is still good, I'm kinda debating what trait to leave out to add deep strikes though. I am kinda wondering.. does 5% faster speed add more than 15dps? Cause that's what deep strikes does in essence. Cause I guess otherwise bracing attack needs to be the one cut out and I have 5 berserker line traits. But bracing attack healing for about 900 is pretty nice.
