They need to rename the proc, because those aren't Dire Consequences.

Sabutai · 01-24-2009, 11:57 AM

yea is that the updated proc? That's like christmas morning nothing dire about it.

Davngr · 01-24-2009, 12:03 PM

I'd put this over Dark-Metal Ingot tbh.

And this only after the gear upgrades get patched in.

(+100 spell dmg becomes like 2 crit or crit bonus and a group-wide spell damage boost proc is added)

Guessing that pic was from a beta of SoH or something, because even with the latest test update its the same as live.

Why on the bangle, I'm hurting for spell mod with all the stuff they're leaving off the main slot gear, jewelry is where I'm making it up and frankly that piece just doesn't do anything for me. Crit bonus is kinda meh, not really sold on it yet.

Earring is worse after the fix than before it. You get more out of it now than with the group proc. Sure helps some but does anybody know if it even stacks? I can see putting it maybe below the 2 proc earrings and the avatar ones but its not better than those IMO.

TSO is taking us back to proc dmg and making base dmg the new spell dmg craze. If you can maintain ~700 spell dmg then the gains from the bracelet are quite good. Pretty hard for necros to boost casting haste so I take it where I get it.
And from what I remember on the earring upgrade the proc's buff didn't have any stipulations like the old grp wide proc's of it's type did so that's pretty amazing especially if it stacks and can overwrite itself. Wouldn't necessarily place it over avatar or ethernaut earrings but it could be right up near them. Like I said though, can only know after it's update.

well the earring I was looking at in terms of 100 spell mod or the proc, seems like for necros at least the proc is subpar to what is there already. I would doubt that you can have more than one up at a time, think they're learning from the ethernaught earring. Cast haste is nice, I'm liking the hat I have now and the ring, but its hard to say until I can get it and beat the crap out of a dummy.

The earing proc over writes it self alone or in combo with another earing in group.

Sabutai · 02-07-2009, 11:05 AM

can anybody who has them, tell me if the greater void bane items should be replaced with other items? Or is it still beneficial to wear more than 1 piece?
