Netherous Realm

Form the description, I don't think I am understanding the use of this spell.

What is the use of this spell?

Is it useful?

Is it worth getting upgraded?

It procs poison dmg on any mobs around you every 5 secs if you hit those mobs with a poison/disease spell during the 5 secs.

its useful on AE fights mainly

use it all the time on raids. its a raid wide buff, and drives the poison damage up nicely. multiple warlocks can keep this running pretty consistent on any raid mob, and watch the necros single target dps go up nicely. if cast at the wrong time tho, can also throw aggro out of whack....

THis spell kicks [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] honestly.

When you cast it, anyone around you is surrounded by the spell. Mobs that cast a hostile spell on a raid/group member under netherous realm will get hit by it. Its kind of like a damage shield, without the shield SMILEY

Very useful on groups of mobs that cast spells on your group/raid members.

Corrupt/wicked gift is the spell line that procs when YOU cast an offense spell. Netherous realm procs when a MOB casts an offensive spell against a member in your group/raid. W00t.

No, it doesn't proc when a mob attacks you, it procs when the mob is hit with a poison or disease spell. I have noticed that other classes's procs with the spell (like dirge for instance) look to sometimes be attributed to the warlock. But it's a nice damage boost to any poison/disease based class.

You guys have got to be thinking of Corrupt or Wicked gift.. Cause.. netherous realm is only activated when a hostile spell is cast on someone with neth realm.

noob. have you ever used this spell?

Araxes · 01-23-2006, 09:44 AM

Netherous Realm procs exactly the same way as the Gift line - EXCEPT it procs for an AREA rather than just one target or linked encounter. And it does way more damage. SMILEY

In all other regards the mechanics are the same - 5 second pulse; one area-wide proc per each landing of a noxious spell or reactive triggered poison proc, by anyone within the range of the buff; no repeats for another 5 second interval.It has nothing to do with damage landed against party members ... "hostile spell" refers to the MOBS receiving damage FROM the party. Not the other way around. Same as the Gift line.Think of it as the big brother AoE version of the Gift line.The description is just convoluted. SMILEY

You have to admit the description of this spell is confusing to say the least.

It seems to me that it puts a buff on your group, dont think its raid wide.

If a member of your group casts a disease or poison spell NR will proc an AE.

I dont know if its an AOE.

I dont know if its both poison and disease or just one.

I dont know if its aoe from you or from the target.

Its confusing but does seem to help sometimes.

it is raid wide.... and it also puts a nox debuff symbol on group members for some reason.. must've been nice before maelstrom was changed.

Indeed raid wide, all the priests go nuts trying to cure it.It was very nice before the maelstrom nerf, back then it triggered on every attack, not just every 5 seconds. Maelstrom + gift + NR + whatever else = a heck of a lot of dead mobs.

Only way this procs is with dd spells though. Any ae or single target dd procs it. Shadows line, pyre line, fury line and so on will not proc it. Best spells to proc this is with nebula and absolution it will proc the extra damage on every mob that those spells hit. From what I have seen wicked/corrupt gifts procs will not set it off either. Either way very nice extra damage only 1 min recast so can use just about every raid encounter if i so choose, though it can be massive aggro for us needs to be used carefully specially the master 1 version.
