Vykosa Monster set is a TOTAL JOKE

1: Healing Taken
2: When you taunt an enemy, you frighten them with a deafening howl, applying Major Maim to them for 3 seconds, lowering their damage done by 30%. This effect can occur once every 15 seconds

you must be kidding right? Ashen Grip seems OP now compared to this piece of trash.

    Have they released wolfhunter for the PTS yet? Where's this info coming from?

    I mean, not everything is for dps, right? This is one of like 3 sources of Major Maim, two which are ultimates. Could be pretty good for PVE tanks. I won’t use it, but Trials junkies may find some cool synergy with it.

    Eh.

    Not. Really. You'd have to time the cooldown manually and even then, if you -are- going to use minor maim the duration just isn't worth it.

    For a tank to stop running bloodspawn you'd need something you can reliably count on. This isn't it, it's too little for too little buck.

    If that info is correct, this set is just lackluster. It's down way too much to be of much use.

    yeah. I would use it it if I were able to keep it up at least 70% of the time...otherwise its garbage....though I suppose situationally useful against bosses with well telegraphed attacks that hit like a train. Not something you would wear for most fights, but maybe one every once in awhile.

    Major Maim at 70% duration on command? C’mon. I can see tweaking the duration to like 5s, but what you’ve suggested is ludicrous.

    Also, isn’t maim calculated last, like defile? Which makes this debuff more powerful than the multiplicative stuff from protection. Like you could use this then eat an Anvil Cracker to the face? I’ll have to check the damage calculation thread.

    the point is , that it has only 3 seconds uptime with 15 sek CD , if it was 5 seconds and have better bonuses like

    1: Physical / Spell Resistances
    2: Blablabla tount bla bla major defile
    2: Max Health


    its gonna be viable then.

    If maim is indeed calculated last then it’s more powerful than you’re giving it credit for. Pretty sure it is, too. Why start two ranty threads calling everything garbage and dead before even testing things out on PTS?

    Can't verify set stats myself because my launcher is still downloading, but yes the PTS has been updated.

    Would be nice if it was a melee or range taunt specific taunt because 3 seconds and trying to time this is going to be almost pointless in PvE

    Give it a 10sec duration with a 5sec cooldown and people would use it.

    This set clearly need a buff. It is not good as zaan, for example. How will zos sell doggo DLC when monster set in it is not dealing 45k oblivion damage to all targets in 100-200m radius and summoning hircine to insta crown them Emperors in Cyrodiil? What a joke.

    That would make it PVP BIS and sorcs would run that, Riposte and tremorscale while spamming Inner Fire and Fury. Sounds fun now that I’m saying it, actually.

    This is the correct post.

    Set is no good because the cooldown is a) on the same timer as taunt b) too uncontrolled to be useful.


    It needs a more conditional proc condition to be useful.
