Better:

Unleashed Terror:
(2 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage
(3 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina
(4 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina
(5 items) When you deal direct damage with a Charge, Leap, Teleport, or Pull ability, you cut your enemy, causing them to bleed for 5 seconds, dealing 19728 Physical Damage over the duration. This ability can occur once every 10 seconds per target.

+

Venomous Smite:
2 items: Adds 833 Weapon Critical
3 items: Adds 833 Weapon Critical
4 items: Adds 129 Weapon Damage
5 items: Dealing Critical Damage inflicts Hunter's Venom on your enemy for 10 seconds, dealing 2241 Poison Damage to your target and nearby enemies every 1 second. This effect can occur once every 15 seconds.

+

Merciless Charge:

Now, you just slot Stampede (always critical, Charge ability with AOE) and... you don't need any other active abilities...
Skillful gameplay is meta next patch...

Stx

They just nerfed red mountain hard.

One of my favorite builds was deadly cloak+blood craze+bloodthirst spam, and proccing back to back volcanoes...

Now the damage is nerfed by 30%. This set wont be used at all I dont think considering it's still flame damage.

Use the new pillar of nirn instead of venomous smite. It deals similar damage, but does not require a critical hit to proc.

Wouldn't Cleanse nullify all of that?

Nah, Pillar of Nirn doesn't trigger instantly and thus can be roll-dodged out of before the first hit applies that triggers the dot.
Venomous Smite triggers instantly and stays on target, it can't be dodged or negated by other means then Cleanse which makes it harder to counter then a roll dodge which prevents Pillar.

But the visuals are just wicked !!!

Interesting. but what about...oh nevermind.

Whats the red mountain nerf? Can someone post the new stats?

That's tragic. It wasn't even that highly used a set these days was it?

I used it on a really fun pve 2h stamDK build

Back to the drawing board as usual. So fed up of this buff/nerf cycle with sets.

Shadow of the Red Mountain: Decreased the damage dealt by this set to 5918, down from 8000, and removed the proc chance. Now whenever you deal damage with a weapon, you spawn a volcano that erupts after 1 second that deals 5918 damage to the closest enemy. This effect can only occur every 2 seconds.

Afaik it shouldn't be too much of a loss since it had the proc chance before; maybe a 500 dps loss overall now that it's guaranteed to proc perfectly on time.

Nah, its still cool as heck.

@Kittytravel & @HoosierPappy

This is excellent news. Its entirely possible there wont be a dps loss or it will be negligible, if it procs every time now.

I combine Red Mountain with Infernal Guardian, and on my 2H StamDK - Brawler is in every rotation so fires IG consistently. You add Way of Fire or Ashen grip to complete the firey goodness. This is obviously not about the meta, its about burning stuff and smiling a lot while you play.

Anyway important thing the build does is, everything close to me and far from me, is taking a ton of fire damage, passively while I go to town with my firey rotation

Burn baby.

Unleashed terror isn't released yet, and it is not even like that anymore. It was changed.
