Has anyone tried this? Streak into a group of 12 players to proc Mechanical Acuity and then Hrothgar's Chill crits all 12 players?

    Wait I forgot procs can't crit.

    Still, does the Hrothgar's Chill hit all 12 players?

    ~3-4k damage x 12 players = 36-48k damage for all players?

    As far as I am aware, dmg dealing sets don't crit, so Hrothgar's Chill won't benefit from Mechanical Acuity 100% crit chance.

    I don't have edit post permission or I would have adjusted the topic.

    Still though it seems broken without crit.

    You can Hrotgar one person every 7s, but still it will hit all people around chilled one.

    The set will only proc for 1/12 players due to the 7 second limitation?

    25k resist * 2 * 0.26 * 0.5 battle spirit = 6500 damage * 0.3788 mitigation = 2462 damage per player

    This set is dead on arrival then.

    Yep, won't be surprised if will get nerfed hard as it gives tanky builds a decent dmg output, as it does not scale with any of your stats, but rather stats of the target...

    Tanks gonna survive it, but a squishy guy standing near them ? They gonna get vaporized. Also it won't affect ball groups at all as they will out-heal / purge it.

    Set was clearly designed to counter tanky builds & groups (at least ZOS hoped for it), but what it will really do is it will punish randoms the most...

    Btw. I guess we posted at the same time lol :joy:

    Proc cant crit, so Hrothgar's + Vicious Death would be a better pairing :D

    I am from the future. The set was more powerful and bugged than enyone ever anticipated. If you are still in the past please tell devs to stop the release of this set and burn it dead.
    I can hit 20k procs on ppl with corrosive+talons, while running a tank.

    Nah, better solution : tell the dev to fix the bug, or at least add a cap / make the set single target focused rather than aoe
    I'm a single character man.

    And...that's it.
