    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.

    Does this set work in PvE? I know the 5pc tooltip specifies that the proc is when you kill a "player", but I haven't seen anything about it working in PvE

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

    It's not like people don't clear adds in seconds anyway.

    The explosion only works if you kill players it will not work for PVE.

    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.

    AOE radius is roughly 5 mtr.

    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]

    They radius needs doubling.

    Needs doubling in order to take out those pesky adds

    You know you need to kill a 'player' right?

    I'm glad they made some sort of effort to counter Zergs, but I don't think this is the right way. This will hurt small groups too, remember. Dueling obviously won't matter, but dueling is really just practice with a particular build against a given class anyway.

    I'm more concerned about groups running this set going up against groups running the same set. Yes, the zerg dies quicker but will only reset. Every small group caught in between gets wiped twice as fast. I don't think they'll let it go to the live server without a slight alter to the damage as even with 50% Cyrodiil damage reduction, that can be made up with CP and buffs. Just muh 2 cents :smile:

    Nerienths crystal radius is 3 meters and Pulsar radius is 6 meters so I dont think its that small tbh.

    You dont want to get killed by unskilled players exploding 10 meters away.
    At least the 5 meters is possible to avoid.

    Only thing I like is this set promotes a good reason not to bunch up in a zerg. Smart players will have no problem knowing where to be in the fight but mindless zergs will cry nerf

    I was thinking about 5 pieces of Julianos, and 4 pieces of Vicious Death. Now if this actually works on NPC and monsters, then I would definitely go 5 piece Vicious Death and 4 piece Julianos. I love my spell crit on my MNB.

    I'm sure 5 jul/4 Vd will be very strong for pve either way, it's pure dmg.

    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.

    You mean like soul tether siphon and det? Lol
