Build talk:Rt/A Destruction Nuker

...ok ill try to keep myself in boundaries...this is bad far some obvious reasons : 1. dont say you use DWG if you got GWK mainbarred 2. you overtrust on one skill, got zero survivability (Superior rune?)and use skills which have WAY better alternatives (Signet of Shadows <-- for example Channeled Strike, Lamentation, Dancing Daggers, etc. 3. people in RA arent stupid most of the time y'know, youre fighting against humans, mot of the time they wont ball together unless they close in for the kill, in which situation youre done for already, you cant move to an enemy soon enough to counter kiting.

for short : bad! Deadfalk 06:43, September 22, 2010 (UTC)

Gimmicks aren't meant to last forever so I already knew about the low (not zero) survivability.

As for the skills you mentioned, I already looked those up.

Lamentation has two flaws, first this build focuses on initial damages because I'm not hear to kill my opponents with annoyance, words, or flattery as I did in my Me/Any build. It's a hex, and if the target is a Monk (s)he if (s)he is a good Monk will have Holy Veil. Signet of Shadows' initial damage with Blind is greater than Lamentation's initial damage and I doubt Monks bring Purifying Veil.

Channeled Strike is a 2 second cast, and Shadow Stepping makes you drop Ashes which is what Swap does, since it exchanges with Destruction and knocks down with Grasping was Kuurong.

Dancing Daggers is risky because it's a half-ranged spell, and if my Destruction spirit is a whole casting range away, then the spike will fail in comparison to Signet of Shadows which is full ranged and deals only 5 less damage (initially) which is also armor-ignoring damage.

Iron Palm is probably the best skill to replace it (off the top of my head) but it doesn't deal 70 damage. Angueo 23:05, September 22, 2010 (UTC)

those were just suggestions, and signet of shadows isnt the right choice for its low recharge, also, you dont have the chance to pull of a quick spike, every enemy sees you coming, and if this gets vetted into use, monks will just run as soon as they see a rit with an urn running to them, rendering you useless, but besides that, i advice to change the mainbar in this :

<pvxbig> [build prof=Rt/A Channeling=12+1+2 Spawning=10+1 Deadly=8][Destruction][Shadow Fang][Grasping Was Kuurong][Swap][Rupture Soul][Optional][Optional][Resurrection Signet][/build] </pvxbig> Optionals are open for skills of choice, for example Bloodsong, Spirit Burn, and Renewing Surge Deadfalk 17:34, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

For short: Worse!

If I cast Grasping was Kuurong and Shadow Fang, it's dropped from my original location, making it completely useless in your build, and mine.

Shadow Fang is a 45 second recharge in comparison to the other skills which are 20 seconds maximum, and I'm not even counting Destruction because it's recharge time is it's death time.

If you plan on casting Shadow Fang then Grasping was Kuurong, chances are, it will get interrupted, or worse, prepared for with some anti-knock down skill or with healing preparations.

As previously stated, I'm not putting in Spirit Burn or Renewing Surge because I have no intention of harassing the opponent to death, I want them to die by me - or any other player just button mashing.

Bloodsong is for healers, and Spirit Spammers, this build has no intention of either. Angueo 03:00, September 25, 2010 (UTC)

1. Signet of Shadows deals extra damage with blind so Rupture Soul isn't just a blind.

2. It is a quick spike. [Swap = 2 Second KD (with Grasping was Kuurong)] + [Rupture Soul = 3/4 second cast (including the death of the Destruction spirit)] + Signet of Shadows (1 second) = 1.75 seconds.

I do believe 1.75 seconds < 2.00 seconds and that there are four lights.

Also, if a Monk is running away, then I've already successfully disabled their Monk without even doing anything. If the Monk stops to cast, then I can catch up and easily spike him/her. Angueo 03:08, September 25, 2010 (UTC)
