Thats a lot of damage! You can outdps an offtank, thats for sure! As for real dps...unlikely.

How much dmg do I need to do to be competitive with real dps? 1000 crits every .5 seconds stacked on top of dots that crit for 400 and Kiss procs for around 250?

Thats all good - assuming you can actually crit something on a constant basis with your 25% crit chance.

Endgame gear crit chance is 41% (without any buffs or debuffs)

with the aoe, proc and other class nerfs you can kind of breathe again and not instadie to ID spam/WA spam vs SL/WL etc, and you're still bringing GREAT utility in the form of RKD, morale pump/drain, IHD+OHD, anti-rez, good defensive/kite capability, anti-rez, strong morales, etc.

when you play with coordinated/skilled players who know how to play around these things, the reason to bring these classes becomes very obvious. if you are playing with noobs or weak org then sure i agree just bring another choppa and play like average guy. but it doesn't always have to be the case. sitting and training people like with choppa isn't the play on stealth classes. you must do quick swaps with good assist and fast guard punt+KD and rotate between all the enemy healers to get their pot/defensive CDs and come back after their immunity when they have no outs.

you don't play these classes to do damage chart numbers and show off and try to compare them to aoe classes, you play them for their utility and burst damage profile. when played properly and in the right circumstances they are more than strong enough atm honestly. the issue is that almost all players do not play at the skill level to make them useful and just go around spamming abilities mindlessly and doing improper goes on poorly chosen targets.

I wanted to revive this thread because I think there are some great changes that could be made to Witch Elf (& Witch Hunter), especially at lower levels of gear.

1. Elixirs/Holy Relics shouldn't share a cooldown.
This adds a lot more versatility to the class.

2. All the 9pt Abilities should generate 2 combo points instead of 1, in addition to maybe one of the core abilities generating extra.

5 globals to build up to a finisher is a long time.

3. Bleeding Edge / Blessed Blade should just give 25% flat armor pen.
These tactics already barely function for their intended purpose, because you use your Finisher and get the buff after. For both Channels, the first tick gets no benefit but the rest of them do. It serves no benefit for most Finishers, which is a major flaw in the design imo. In addition to this, I think Finishers should just get some amount of armor pen baseline (maybe 15?) so the 11pt tactic isn't so necessary.

4. More crit?
A few of the WH/WE enjoyers whom I trust tend to think the class could benefit from more crit chance, especially early on.

It's probably not perfect, maybe OP. Let me know!
