    i don't think it's as good as most people think. although it does not say how big the explosion area is + the 50% damage reduction. sorc wont feel a thing when 3 people die around him

    Forget Sorc think about the real world ! c:)

    Not me, it comes with no regen. I'd rather just stack my base damage and regen higher.

    I think it will be interesting for Vampire Magicka DK builds that are already built in a way that favors 1vX situations.

    I can already tell there is bound to be at least 1 player that will use this set to wipe out an entire zerg simply by combining it with magicka detonation and steel tornado and another random AOE class ability.

    Hmm flame dmg... HMMMM...

    Does the DK Flame buffs work on it? If so I see alot of DK's using the whole set.
    If I die tomorrow I do not want to think of the game I could of played today, therefor I will play whatever I want today while securing a future to play in as well.

    A true gamer will think of all the possible outcomes and execute the one that is the hardest to accomplish.

    Does this set work with kills from siege weapons?

    Highly doubtful. No set bonuses proc with siege weps

    A lot of bonus proc with siege weapon and they have "fixed" it but we don't know how deep is the fix...

    It's like they looked at 1vXers, realized they couldn't wipe groups that know what they are doing, and decided to give them something that would make it possible. I'm all for 1vXing, it's really cool, but this is like, the raid wiper set. That's crap.

    Depends on the AoE radius, but agree with @Makkir that this is a zerg buster. Smart raids will have to spread out a bit to avoid this. No clump and dumps.

    I would like to know if the explosion itself counts as you hitting. As in, if I can kill someone in the middle of a zerg and cause a chain reaction (first explosion kills someone else, who also explodes and kills another, who also explodes, and so on).

    I am incredibly excited for this set. A lot of the PVP'ers may be whining about the set; calling it a "zerg buster" and this and that. But for a PVE'er like myself, this set is going to work wonders. I've been looking for a solid set to use on my Magicka Dragonknight, and this I feel is what I've been waiting for.

    I am not overwhelmed. The 5 pcs. is only good when fighting groups, not in 1v1's. Would i trade it for the 5 pcs. bonus on Seducer or Julianos? Do not think so, to be honest. This is one of those set's, that quickly becomes "gimicky", and the real world use of it, is very very very rare.

    But for Guild vs. Guild or just engaging in Zerg vs. Zerg - yes, it will be awesome. But that will 100% depend on wether you need killing blow or not.

    If you need killing blow, this set will ONLY work in 1vX. And for that, many other sets are better.

    Since this set has weapons and jewelry, you could always run it with Julianos or Seducer. Just a thought.

    I get confused about this set. When dueling and testing builds on my Death recap it says how 'Vicious Death' dealt like 10k dmg to me and causing the killing blow. I thought the dmg went off after you died.

    I have a strong feeling that this set cannot be used in PVE. People would clear adds in dungeons in seconds if so.

    Damn, 5m is very, very small, i can see the set being useful but considering it's only useful when you actually kill someone in pvp, so it's useless most of the time and even when it does proc hoping someone is 5m in range... hmm]
