SM recent patch

[MayoDaen78]

Hi Guys,
Any one find the recent update on SM tactics and skill tree to be a good one?
I noticed the devs did something with Vaul and Hoeth Tree. I am currently Khaine/Hoeth and was quite glad that they made bolster enchantment a core tactic now and blessings of heaven very low on hoeth tree.
Also Vauls buffer is quite low on vaul tree now, which I haven’t tried because I don’t spent any point on vaul atm.Any thoughts? Also has anyone tried that new tactics ( the dragon breath and blinding strike), thanks for your time guys

Try khaine vaul with vaul buffer bolstering et the two khaine tactic. Amazing. Bolst crit with the 20 % bonus crit

Which two khaine tactics? I assume GWM and BA?

of course deep incision is crap . just take the two other tactics with ether dance

I do have those two tactics (gwm and ba) slotted, but I don’t see the correlation between BE bolstering BA? I understand with GWM your parry rate is increased so the more chance to proc Vauls Buffer because it procs the bubble every time it block, parry, dodge and disrupt successfully.

Balanced accuracy increase critic rate on hit AND on heal . 20 % critic on last stance . With vaul buffer you auto regen so much that you can fight long time and yours mate too. It s also increased by island protection. Try it

As far as I remember BE(Bolstering Enchantments) doesnt crit same as BoH(Blessing of Heaven) so they dont synergy with BA(Balanced Acuracy)

Do You mean build like this? Because You lose Vauls Buffer, DO(10% blok/parry strike thru) and EA(spirit DoT).

I never thought BA increase crit rate on heal. On the tool tip, it only says increase your crit chance to hit/damage. Also with going Khaine Vaul, how is your spirit debuff number? Is it not a lost having your WoH debuff spirit resistance with much smaller value.
I probably will give it a try just to find out.

With recent patch I think with higher renown toon, you still can get vauls buffer together with BE and BoH, BE is now core, and BoH is very low on Hoeth tree now (only 3 points now) plus Vauls buffer is also quite low on Vaul tree( only 7 points)

I thought Vauls buffer is core. I havent touched my SM a while. Gonna try the changes. I am too bussy with my Kobs atm
