Witch Hunter Question

So ive been playing some WH latley, the debuff mechanic like ini is interesting in that its more controlled vs WE's RNG style but requires you to blow your resource for it

i cant tell who has the better mechanic as they both feel equally frustrating in a way

Im going to start off by assuming that trial by pain is a garbage or very situational execution and never use it?

Absolution vs Burn heretic when is it better to use one over the other?


While i can see the benefits of flowing accusations isnt it better to run fanatical clensing and Inq fury if doing the BAL build?

Kisses are almost always up where as bullets need to wait for you to use a execution to get the effects. So kisses are better.

You are right about trial by pain.

Abso will almost always be better and honestly I wouldn't use burn heretic at all. Just burn away lies/exit wound and abso.

The go too tactics for wh are going to be flanking and brute force then if bal 50% crit dmg and if exit wound auto attack speed. At 40 will be both of those.

On flowing accusation it is really a utility slot I think, on top of a gamble.

In situations where you find yourself unable to attack your target because you are out of range due to all kinds of possibilities, I feel like no other tactic in the game is going to give you more damage than FA, it sort of changes how you can approach a lot of situations.

Of course in those situations where you have 100% melee uptime on your target during the kill there would be much better tactics to run.

There is nothing that will put a bigger smile on your face as a WH than getting like 4 FA procs in a row to abso down a SH who thought he got away. It's a really fun tactic.

On kisses vs bullets... WE mechanic is much better I think, I know that WH is more reliable but I just think you get getting more dmg and better returns on things like the AP drain kisses.

The most infuriating part of playing WH/WE right now - targets continue to move/teleport/turn in stun, making you opener very unreliable, esp. trying to use a finisher that only works from behind.
More often than not you end up wasting up to 5 seconds in the opener for you are your target to "sync", while you watch your animations fail to go off again and again.
