tested it, looks good on paper but even against a target dummy it underperforms. Assuming you can have only two chances per second to proc it on a spammable build (light attack + spammable ability) the 10% chance procs it rarely and it underperforms in comparison to most other sets.
Seems OK if you light attack weave and use Crushing Shock / Force pulse as a spammable on an infused staff with a flame or shock glyph, that's 4-5 direct damage hits per second. Or spam an AOE around large groups in PVE.
It tends to add around 2k dps on a boss from a ranged position.
I love it, I use it on my magblade. Yes it’s easily dodged, and yes there’s better reliable monster set procs. Let’s face it, if we’re taking about PvP and you’re relying on your monster set to get kills, well, good luck with that. They definitely help(some more than others), but you need to be the one do the killing. Not relying on a proc.
For me this set shines by making your opponent waste stamina by roll dodging, or if it procs when you’re in a hairy situation 9/10 they will roll dodge and give you a second to evaluate the situation. I love it. It has some niche combos you can work into it as well.
Zos should really revisit this set, because when fighting Bosses who use this set, it's strong as hell. And I forgot which boss but I believe it even stuns, or Cc's you. I think that would be a good way to bring this monster set on par with valkyn skoria and other monster sets.
I use it on my Necromancer for roleplay reasons in all honesty... Not as good as other monster sets I've been using on my other characters. I do feel like it should get a stun.

Yeah it just lacks the damage, and in all honesty it needs to be reworked like I previously stated. Because it's actually not good in PVE either. For role play purposes it's a must use for a necromancer lol.
