Return of Reckoning

My perspective as BW is that you're super squishy, not very mobily, barely have any cc, damage self... And for all that, your damage is not THAT high, compared to other dps classes.

Regen kills build diversity, but at the same time closes the gap between normal glasses and some stupidly broken ones. Regen works especially well against dots. Without regen, prepare to go 100-0 from 2 dots thrown by a passing shaman.

You should try playing Mara to see what it’s like. Yeah, it’s annoying when the pull actually lands, but most of the time it just gets disrupted. If you’ve got good ping you can usually outrange it, or just use line of sight. And if you ever get pulled through walls or objects, that’s just ...

There's no counter to mara's pull, because it doesn't go on CD if it fails. Mara just tries again 1.5 seconds, over and over again, until succeeds.

You can't seriously compare this to wl's lion. Mara's pull is god mode compared to wl's. Free kill every so seconds, without any downsides.

Finally an interesting WH topic!

In all the fairness we (WHs) can’t get anywhere close with what WE’s can do in terms of defensive build. And after LV this gap is going to be even wider.

Suppose this WE build:

I play def/regen WH sometimes. It's kind of good. Is it as good as def WE? Hard to say. No access to witchbrew, less bubbles, no AP regen from parry tactic, no -25% crit tactic...

But at the same time, WH has amazing on-demand RB panic button dragon gun provides some nice utility, morale pump and ...

For an average player, discordant scenes are not much better than premade sc these days. Because of low pop, you often get 3-6 players per side. With such low numbers, a single BiS player can wreck **** on his lower-geared opponents, essentially being a 1-man premade. So casual people don't want to ...

The archetype definitely needs some love. Like, why would you even play a Sorc when Magus deals more damage, survives like a discount tank and has more cc than any class in the game?

700 damage with 35% chance statistically makes it about 200-250 damage per cast, as you don't get damaged every single cast, so it averages.

It's not very noticeable even when zerg-surfing solo, as it's usually covered by stray hots, mainly the aoe one runies throw around like candies. Now if you ...

Backlash is not a big deal. In fact, it's barely noticeable at all. On average, you take about 200 self-damage per cast, which is less than one hot tick from a healer.

You don't have to reset your combustion/dark magick. There's practically zero reason where you'd want to do it. Maybe some niche ...
