I think velidreth etc. does more damage and if you do pve you get it from VO I think

In my opinion slimecraw will be new meta. Since monsterhelmet can´t crit anymore the 8% extra damage will compensate nicely (already does to be honest)

to be honest in every good group healer will give you this bonus from combat prayer, 100% uptime will be hard but his uptime will be enough to just *** this set

In pve no need for this set. Combat prayer up time is always 90-100%. some bosses are harder, but anyway up time is high. better to slot non crit monster helm, which still hits pretty hard.
more over, there is no reason for healer not to slot combat prayer, because now we have couple flexible slots during change for ele drain, siphon and aura.

nah. PvP is mostly for burst damage, where again, veli/whatsoever can be better

I'm talking PvP not pve plus even as a nb I'd rather have piercing mark and siphoning attacks (only 5 attacks per bar sucks )slotted( plus in ww form minor beserk isn't available for me personally)
But for other classes who can't do this in PvP I'm guessing would be awesome especially after they nerf proc sets(thank you zenimax)

If you back-bar a Resto, Combat Prayer does the same thing as Slimecraw

on your Mag-plar and Mag-sorc just use Combat Prayer....that way you even give the buff to anyone standing ion front of you when you activate it too. In group content the healer should be running that at all times anyway

Post nerf!!!! I doubt I can hit a target with a 10k velindreth hit while it doesn't.crit its more like 6k then if it actually hits which in most cases unless your.fighting a noob does not. Plus while proc sets have a cool down this has not

as I wrote this 8% is very small on pvp, so what do you want? wanna get your surpise attack hit increase from 6k to maybe 6.5k hit? I dont see to much difference to deal additional 500 damage per skill while every 4-8 seconds I can get additional burst hit for this 5-7k which already can finish my targtet or down him enough to use finisher on him to just finish him

I'm talking about after they nerf proc sets, everyone knows proc sets are OP now

People like what people (streamers) like @Mangeli200194, and dont break from the norm and if you think ur onto something.... Ssssh

Personal preference I guess. In used to bol Templars in reactive and transmutation and dks in heavy where u literally have to grind them down bursts don't work due to resistances

PS:

Vicious Death will be BIS next patch for PVP in Cyrodiil

Tehy changed AOE caps so the 1st 12 people take full damage. A Sorc can combine age's Wrath Explosion with Vicious Death to hit 12 people for 18-22k worth of instant damage, Since folks like to run around in such large sums this will be more powerful then it was in TG

Vicious Death will be a group killer, and Nightblade bomb builds will be better then they ever were with Vicious Death in TG....12 targets taking full damage....one night blade could wipe an entire 24 man raid by himself with one good bomb come Homestead...hahahahha

It can be ok on some builds, but I tend to use combat prayer if I want the minor berserk

I'm talking about PvP and there i never see magical builds switching to their rersto bar every 8 secs lol

you don't have healers in the group? Our healers always keep Combat Prayer going

Burst damage will always be what tons of sNB and sDK carry into battle. sNB because they live off burst, sDK because they have zero burst skills. So, no matter how much crocodile head looks cool, I don't see it as meta, as long as damage boost it provides is tied to minor brutality. If by any chance that 8% becomes independent, and stackable with minor brutality, it might find its rightful place among PvP meta builds.

Minor Berserk, not Minor Brutality.

Jack Daniel swears by it on his templar builds. I think 1 kena and 1 krags is better for PVP. The extra 8% doesn't seem to be that overwhelming compared to staking weapon damage. Slimeclaw doesnt affect heals unless you are using puncturing sweeps or a magblade.
