Talk:Wastrel's Demise

From Guild Wars Wiki

[edit] With Overload...

With Overload, you can ensure that you will do huge damage anyway. Ive been trying it out in PvP(especially in AB) with hexes like Backfire, you can take down an Elementalist, Necro, Shadow Arts Assassin, etc, In a few seconds. Backfire activates(depends on your attribute pts) dealing 119-140 damage than if Wastrel's Demise activates it will deal about 70-80 damage followed by Overload with 39-42, even better if can caught the enemy doing spell to activate Overload too.--ShadowFog 18:21, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Notes?

"Best when used on a specialized elementalist like a Terrorweb Dryder that has been interrupted by Power Block. " Only. I thought I'd have to do something outlandish to get it to work right --Eyekwah 15:52, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

The Powerblock part can be removed. This it self does a spike anyhow even if interrupted with Power Block.--ShadowFog 22:12, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Update

I really like the new version. Casts fast, low energy, lasts 10 seconds - good for luring monks into wasting a remove hex spell, and good for triggering CoP-style spells.The Duke of Silence 02:50, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

I notice monks tend to use hex removal more frequently when the hex involves degeneration (which consequently turns their ally's health bar pink and immediately noticeable) and a better coverhex than this I can't imagine. --76.23.121.196 16:18, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Haven't been able to get in to play yet, but this seems like it would be tougher to land the conditional than it was before, since it triggers on any skill instead of spells. Although, with Backfire or Visions of Regret, that might work nicely. Garrick 19:16, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
