Pious Assault

Shard's Issue -- 28 March 2008

Issue

Nonelite guaranteed DW.

Solution

Only causes DW if the attacker lost an enchantment. Furthermore, and increase in recharge and/or cost may be in order as well.

Alternatively, revert it.

Or remove the DW.

Issue

Pious Assault has become a very disappointing skill for use in PvE since the update that changed its functionality.

Suggestion

I suggest splitting it into PvE and PvP versions. I would like to see the original skill functionality be returned to us as the PvE version of the skill and the current functionality with DW to be kept on as the PvP version. Personally, the Dervish used to be one of my favorite classes to play because of the builds I used which implemented the instant recharge of pious assault upon losing an enchantment. When this was taken away, my Dervish builds became obsolete, and its just not as fun to play my Dervish character.
