Incapacitating Strike Passives

TeIvanni

• "Incapacitating Strike: This morph no longer applies Minor Mangle or Stuns the target when cast with 120 or more Ultimate. Instead, it now Silences the target for 3 seconds when cast with 120 or more Ultimate. <--- (Ignore all this because we raiders literally do not hold up extra ultimate for quirky silences/stuns that do not effect trial bosses.)
  Additionally, while slotted, it now grants Reave, which restores up to 100 Magicka and Stamina when dealing damage with a Light or Heavy Attack on a target with a negative effect active on them."

I for one am really excited about this buff to PvE End Game Raiding:
It doesn't add much sustain, but it will easily be 200 to 300 stamina per rotation slotted on backbar.
And if you're still running War Machine in the age of our Lokkestiiz overlords it will be more like 500 to 800 stamina per rotation.
Perhaps even enough to allow Orcs to very easily run Bi-Food.

Theoretically even Magicka users who are dropping destros could use this to take advantage of the sustain (not that they would need to... because generall Nightblade sustain is pretty easy).

All and all seems like a pretty solid passive for nightblades in PvE.
And about time honestly, always seemed strange that Soul Harvest got that passive but Incapacitating strike was left without anything.
