Bow/DW NB and Major Brutality

✭✭✭✭✭
Hi folks.

I want to make a viable Bow/DW NB build for harder PVE content like vICP/vWGT or vMA. One problem I'm running into is a reliable way to get my Major Brutality (20% weap. damage) buff w/o my usual 2H bar. I've got an idea or two, but I was hoping for some tips from the community.

Any suggestions much appreciated. :)

    Can you achieve 100%, or at least close to it, up time to Maj. Brutality with just potions? I was under the impression there was significant downtime...

    This. Use Sap Essence if you need the magicka dump.

    You can... There's an alchemy passive that increases potion duration by 20 or 30%.

    Ty all for the answers. I'm going to level Sap Essence now to give it a try and see how I like it. If not, I'll go the potion chugging route.

    You could use Flying Blade, however 10 second's is half the duration of what Sap Essence can give you.

    As long as someone else de-buffing Armour your fine in pve.


    Pvp is a different story. Dw/Bow/1h+s need other ways to get major brutality.

    Flying blade as mentioned above.

    Any stamina build w/o 2H or vigor healing is an issue.

    Rally and Vigorbshould be in skill trees available to anyone and not tied just one bar!
