Ever tried SnB solo roaming? Did with Oathstone (unfortunately with no GnM) which took a bunch of WEs by surprise

[GodlessCrom]

Oathstone works until they add it to their buffhead hits hilariously hard though, will give it that. Imagine SNB might help against magus or dps shamans, with HTL+Avalanche, they might as well be putting hots on you instead of dots

[Osred]

Yeah I've found Oathstone to be the saving grace vs certain RDPS which you just cannot get to. The problem is still the regen part but it seems no groups have bothered to farm Lionmark Fleshrender Rings on Order , yet you always find a destro solo roamer like Manjare who has a full set of 4 regen rings the lucky bastard .


Seriously if someone were to farm those rings of Kryei Sek I'd be buying those at like 500g per ring now.

Yeah, I have the 4 regen jewels, and imo after lots of testing, they are not worth it on IB.

seriously, you can only really just use 3 of them. Need 4th slot for BL ring. But supposed you used 4. You gain 160 hp every 4 sec. Multiply that by 15 (times it regens per minute) and you gain 2400 hp. Compare that to GnM, 400 (650+ on crit) x10 every minute also, for a total of between 4 and 6k. Then conq proc, 3 times per minutes for another 3k. Then avalanche, which can be a crazy lots vs magic casters. And those jewels are just not necessary. By using them you lose on 3 genesis pieces (roughly minus 75 strength/melee power), you lose a BL bonus, be it 5% parry or 58 strength. And most important, you lose a metric cubic ton of spirit resist (very bad idea imo). All that adds up, imo, to more value in a fight than 2400 more health.

It is different when u use them on knight or chosen. They have access to resist aura, so the xtra resist is not needed. Knights have RF that will compensate for strength loss thourgh faraminous WS + strength gains. And a lot of their damage comes from Shield of the sun and the likes. + they have M1 and M2 which are marvelous for roaming. For them it is good. For IB, Not so much. I always did better with Genesis than with regen rings.

Too many weird things happening during NA hours, almost a different game.

There's a lot more small skirmishes and a lot less large bombing clashes. The big, big fights are kinda few and far between.

I know... I played with the Bejkon/bacon people during the Christmas break, and I thought the same thing about Euro. All there is, is blobs of 30+ people, all mashing AoE buttons and then pressing M2 as a whole entity in osmosis. Its like a packman game with cool graphics
