So now with the new changes arrived. What are the good possible builds for witch elves? I have one in r36 and got interested to level it again but long time I dont play with it, don't know which build to pick. Thanks in advance.

So now even when RA sucks with the 5ft range, time to try the def/regen WB way :P?

Yeah, it's not like a finisher which ignores an armor and and have a snare (the only 10s snare for mdps!) is anything but bad. Poor poor WE...

BW can cleanse 1 debuff (10 s cd). Aside from this, no rdps can do this, unless you are using M2, which means that unless you know how to start a fight with M2 as rdps, you are pretty screwed against WE.

In general, the ways to disengage from WE are RP's or WH's stagger or tank's long punt. The usual disengage tool of mdps (10s antiroot+charge) can now be countered by WE by using her own charge first and then vanish+pounce (snare included). WL can try it too with a knockdown in the right time (no knockdown ? too bad you don't have even disarm by default - eat balance in the face instead).

Bonus points if your feinted positioning is still available for ranged snare.

It seems that WEs are still spamming AW with Witchbrew or the new SS, so there is nothing particularly new there. The approach is extremely basic: cap Strength and invest into crit.

The Carnage tree looks very odd and feels subpar in comparison. I cannot think of any viable build that supports investing into Weapon Skill, as the base damage of Carnage skills is very low.
