The following sets now scale off of your Weapon or Spell Damage, whichever is higher:
Arms of Relequen and Perfected Arms of Relequen's damage


This Change and Dmg Proc will kill Stamina DDs in PVE for Raidgroups. We had this before with Relequen/Siroria Meta on Magicka, in these Days Relequen was changed to dealing physical Dmg, so a Staff couldnt proc it anymore. Now Dual Wield is vaible/Meta for Magicka and in the Patchnotes are the Axes Crit Dmg buffed again. DW Magicka with Relequen + Mother Sorrow/Siroria could be the new Magicka Meta.

I dont really understand this change, Stam is already behind on Live. You arent able to reach full Penetration on Stam and its harder to parse already in Trials if you compare it to Magicka.

    If I understand the patch notes correctly, "scaling" just means either damage type will allow the set to reach or exceed its previous value.

    Nothing about the sets current functionality will change.

    Yeah, but the Relequendmg will be scaling with Spelldmg. These are another 10k Damage for Magicka, it scales only with Weapon Dmg on Live now.

    It does not scale with anything on live. The damage is only increased by % modifiers or pen.

    The effectiveness of Rele on a mag build will be the same as on live.

    Spell damage is not typically high enough to make that viable, especially since mad DDs are giving up a bunch of stats if they want to use Rele.
