Relic BP focus ability (Sever)

[Antiops]

<div></div>hi all,      Please correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't sever (dot,debuff) on a duration of 24 sec, recast 20 sec before the focus ability of the relic BP? which means we could keep it on nonstop even before reducing the recast to 10 secs only...i mean whats the use of having it on a 10 sec recast if it's original recast was less than it's duration anyway?it just boggles me to see that the focus ability on the BP doesn't help in any way, if it does i can't come up with any useage, so if u guys have better ideas plz tell me as i feel it's a rip off.Wish the focus ability would effect the recast time on one of our 30 sec buffs, command or wall of force imo that would be much more helpfull, or atleast another attack that we have to w8 for not one that already can be chain casted on it's current duration time.thx<div></div><p>Message Edited by Antiops on <span class=date_text>04-24-2006</span> <span class=time_text>08:40 AM</span>

you ever fight more than one mob???  drop on one mob wait till it coms back up drop on a second mob...  its free hate and a minor debuff on a second mob...

Agreed.I guess the only use for a shorter recast is being able to keep the debuff on more than one mob at a time. But that's it. I'd rather see a dmg increaser, or a modifier to a completely different CA.<div></div>

<P>don't get me wrong i'll pass on it everytime i see it...  the quested BP from lyceum is decent, and there is always the curiss of protection thats simple to get...  heck even the quested claymore BP isn't bad...</P> <P>kinda offtopic but i love the relic legs for soloing :smileywink:</P>

ouch, guess ur right on the more than one enemy being debuffed by it <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> still tho i think it could have had a much better use..oh well thx for the info <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> it's just i don't have problems with aggro when fighting grps and with a good grp that knows what to do and assists well, i usually take 'em one by one without having aggro problems so was thinking about single targets more....<div></div>

It saddens me to know that I'll be wearing my Curiass of protection when the T8 xpac comes out.  They really need to nerf that item or boost up the raid fabled a bit.  And more on topic, the re-use on sever is 99% useless, we should ask for something else.

<P>should have been merciless charge...mainly cause i have it as master 1 and does more dmg. </P> <P>In all seriousness, i would have loved it to have been Obliterate, but that might have made it a little unbalanced.  I love Obliterate tho.    </P> <P><SPAN class=time_text></SPAN> </P><p>Message Edited by Meinen on <span class=date_text>04-27-2006</span> <span class=time_text>02:55 AM</span>
