Any1 enjoy T8 spells ?

I mean their graduation between tiers.

I checked some spells and don't wanna upgrade my old M1 to new Ad3.

Old Riana's M1 is +32 DPS new Ad3 +31.
Almost every not-melee t8 damage is worse at ad3 than older M1. I know that it will be hard to hit mobs with the old ones, but this looks like waste of money (5pp for ad3) or time to harvest loams.

For sure Scream of Bloods very nice upgrade, but the old one is lvl55.
Power ballad Ad3 is 52 base power regen, old M1 is 49. Not sure if 3 points worth upgrade. Athletic Strain Ad3 +88 base, older M1 +83. So with +8AA Bladesing im gonna get like 7 more str and agi. Not sure if this is good upgrade or not, but think gonna upgrade it cause im dps group spected dirge atm.

Siphon Blade is marginaly better then teh old one. Emotional Dirge Ad3 worse then old M1, but the old one doesn't want to land on +78 mobs

, so have to upgrade.

Any1 got same feeling, that new t8 spells at ad3 level are kinda disappointment ?

The one nice thing is (maybe it was earlier too), that my power song grows with my level. So atm got it at 61 per tick

.

BTW, got server discovery on Dead Calm M1

I enjoy gravitas. A lot.

Gravitas is Hot for sure.
Scream of blood you are right, is a nice upgrade.
However since i got the adept 3 for Riana's and saw that it was in fact shittier than the master 1 version of the previous one, I've been hesitant to upgrade the rest and pretty much doing them 1 at a time. If anyone has upgraded or is in the know as to which spells not to bother upgrading it would be infinitely helpful.

I'm only 72 so far and I've upgraded 1 spell so far, Siphon Blade. I think I'll upgrade over time when I decide the money is worht it because as stated above the increase in skills / benefits is so marginal I'm not going to play 9pp for an A3 that gives me 2 more of this or 1 more of that.

I want to start a petition drive to get them to add the old spell line names back to our spells / CA's

I mean, an Emotional Drige playing a Power Ballad? Come on

The only spells worth upgrading to ad3 are Gravitas and Scream of Blood. Just spend your money on +CA adornments and you'll get more use out of those than buying all ad3s.

i dont think this spell actually grows with lvl, that is probably the AA boost from the luck line

I got luck line maxed before RoK, so it cant grow anymore. Just noticed that power song grows with my level, havent added any AA to luck tree, cause was maxed ages ago

. Was 58 at start of RoK, then like 59 on lvl72, and now 61 at lvl78, think since 76.

hmm i dont remember what mine was before rok, but its 61 now at lvl 77. havent been paying much attention to old buffs, so it could have snuck up a few points on me.

the only t8 spell im looking forewards to using is gravitas, cant wait till i have a tad more playtime and can get to 80

Gravitas? blergh. If I wanted Jester's Cap I wouldn't have betrayed back

When I turned 71 I immediately upgraded three CAs to Adept 3 and regretted it shortly thereafter. It just isn't worth the money and effort, I'll just keep my old Master I's, kthxbai.
