It is worth noting that this is not gonna get you super high damage, certainly not gonna be meta, may get you kicked from dungeon roles, and really only plays well with certain classes.
I found this to work best with Stamina Templar, Warden and Nightblades. Many Mag DK’s use S/B with some degree of success, but most don’t seem to know what they are doing.
Jabs, Surprise Attack, Sub Assault, Dive, are the reasons this can work. Sorc has no class ability that would work with this, and DK while it might kind of work requires a much higher level of play/ skill.
A Divines Shield gives you another 300 some odd penetration front bar with lover mundus. Worth noting.
I play all my toons very generic. All bow bar set, Endless hail, Caltrops, Trap Beast, Poison Injection, Flex/ Class(Vigor, Siphoning attack’s, Repentance, Green Lotus)
Front bar is slightly different.
Templar Jabs, Absorb Magic, Power of the Light, Repentance, Vigor
Nightblade Surprise Attack, Absorb Magic, Killers Blade, Relentless Focus, Vigor
Warden Dive, Sub Assault, Green Netch, Bird o Prey, Vigor
I pretty much never have to cast Absorb Magic, but it’s on there for utility. I suppose could put a fighters guild skill or something on there if you wanted.
How it plays is very much up to the individual, but it can work. Yes I’ve beat Maelstrom with it, and done vet dungeons, even sneaked into a Vet Trial, but not really needed so much there.
Sets: Relequen is probably by far the best set to use for free damage. I’m a big fan of Briarhearts and VO personally. It’s my Maelstrom go to setup and I can hit around 32k DPS fairly easy. Someone good probably get a little more, and not so good get a little less. In the end, it’s viable, but maybe not quite so desirable.
AY and Leviathan could might work too.
