Does the change mean no longer returns from twisted and caltrops?
Or is it about procs from flame poison cripple Ticks?

shugg✭✭✭Looks that way, nerf to my nb tank ... Not too impressed with the dk changes. Gonna be tough to decide what to main tank vet maw with, may make a sorc tank with the buffs.0 -
GeertKarel✭✭✭Did it restore on healing ticks too? can anyone confirm?Server: EU Pact
Guild: Hodor0 -
WolfingHour✭✭✭✭Not on healing only damage, including damage of time ticks. (Some skills, not all)
That skill was in a great place: it allowed you to offset SOME of the cost of blocking without being full stamina all the time. You still needed to not overreach by casting sta skills and throw in some light/heavy attacks to be in comfortable spot, all without engine guardian.
It quite amazing how this morph went from being a tank choice to a dps one.0 -

✭SA no longer procs from Twisting Path & Caltrops"I still do not understand why I followed the advice of Captain Rana to bring the villagers of Bleakrock into safety. We should have fought for our village and not have backed down, with our tail between our legs. Now my home village is in shambles, the houses burning, the invaders feasting.I swear every day to Shor that after Molag Bal has been defeated, I will hunt down the invaders and restore peace in Bleakrock and drink my mead with my friends at the market place".PC-EU0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I think it was kind of stupid siphoning attacks would proc off Caltrops, but path is a different story; it has a shorter duration and a far smaller radius. I'd have no problem if they reinstated it to work on that.0 -
shugg✭✭✭Tbh this i a massive nb pve tanking nerf, i used caltrops and path to keep my resourse in a good place. I was gonna take my nb to the new raid but now it looks like i will take my dk instead2

Meanwhile I also tested my last hope, Necrotic Orb, that procced SA so far (a real cascade of hits !!!) and gave nice Group support.
But with TG DLC Necrotic Orb no longer procs SA as well.
Yes
this is a heavy blow for the NB Siphoning Tank.

I'll still give it a go by moving more towards magicka than stamina and using swallow soul spam.

Have you tried consuming trap?
To clarify, I'm more concerned with sta management in trash fights, rather than boss fights.0
