but yeah I must be training at the wrong places then. It was big spiders and then that map to the right of them. And Roar sounds much better now that you describe it. I just didnt think that the difference between 21 and 30 was so great. But less cooldown on a skill is ALWAYS better.
So the policy for training is "if you're not using fury, you're training at the wrong place". I'll keep that in mind when I'm training. And I guess I go to Ariant first.
But I do have one last question. For sacrifice, when does it beat out Impale? I know impale has more % but Sacrifice ignores all PDR so what PDR lvl is sacrifice better. I think its like 40 or above.
I want to know just cuz even though sacrifice animation is.... weird, it also holds a unique value for me. just cuz its a main attacking skill that eats a large portion of health. so you have to worry about dieing when using it. which adds a bit excitement to the game for me. Because really the only thing that's Exciting , Exciting is seeing wither or not I can survive this boss. nowadays... thats really not much of a issue outside of DR. because It really doesn't feel the same. So I would be really sad if I found out that Sacrifice is in the same boat as Buster.
i know, i went to zak when i was under 150 (orange crusher) with a DrK with purple crusher, and the alternating colors on the arms were so pretty.
sacrifice is... weird. overall it's determined that you need a damage of 2.2~2.3M average with impale for it to beat a max/max sacrifice, sacrifice is faster and always triggers FA (at a 40% rate) compared to impale, which depending on from how far you're attacking may or may not trigger FA
i don't know/haven't calculated the exact turnover point, but it depends a lot on impale's damage on the boss you're attacking, again, 2.3~ish M damage per impale is around where it flips.
on the down(up?)side wisdom's recovery rate is so insane, even when spamming sac, you're not prone to die from it (unless you're tanking zakum body on top of it or something) me at VL, without HB, heal enough from spamming it to not even have to watch my HP bar.
sac is still useful though, until massive damage ranges. useless on normal mobs, on empress my sac damage is 700k~close to max twice, while impale barely does 500k~700k ish
