[Zealot] Changer's Touch + Waves of Chaos
Posted: Sun Jul 10, 2016 5:52 pm
Anyone have any experience running this?
Was thinking of how to spec my zealot and saw the potential for these two tactics to work together and tested to see if it worked in game, and it does.
For two tactic slots you basically get a 10ft AoE pulse that has a chance to throw out 50% incoming healdebuffs that last for 10 seconds. The best part being you don't have to spec DPS zealot to get the best aspect of what they bring to a party.
The biggest problem of course being if you are a healing zealot all of your magic crit is converted into healing crit, meaning your only chance to crit with waves of choas comes from the targets base chance to be crit, or outside critical modifiers such as mara impale tactic or BG crimson death (too bad destro doesn't have knight to pump 20% crit into the zealot :^))) ). Other problems being the 30sec CD and relatively small AoE, although it think it is a bit larger than 10ft as it seems to come from the edge of the actual visual ritual instead of the epicenter. WP group cleanse spam catches it since it's a hex as well.
You can also toggle on harbringer every 20 seconds if your team doesn't need immediate healing for a great boost in magic crit, on top of picking up chaotic agitation for that time you are in harbringer mode.
Maybe this could be a good combo if you are running in a group lacking in healdebuffs, and focusing on AoE damage/bomb like a magus pull group?
Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts or experience trying this out, is the tactic slots lost too damning? Is it too gimmicky? is the AoE too small etc...
