I don’t see it too. You can make DW FS and charge Savagery for stats but it’s not going to be something special. And you lack DW melee WPS skills. So to me it’s exaggerated.
Fire strike is underestimated. I have a dw aether fs sorcerer that can clear in under 7 mins and is pretty durable by melee standards. Will post it soon
Haven’t played around with ranged yet. Shaman doesn’t have any ranged support as far as i can see. But full Dagallon should be decent despite of it’s a Purifier set and obviously much better for Purifier.
Actually i find NB WPS lacking. Without those huge boosts from the meta DW items they don’t benefit DW all that much AND they lower attack speed. Every skill but Execution compared to Seal of the Void is, sorry for the pun, like night and day.
For what’s it’s worth i’ve put together a feedback for this weapon because it needs some improvements both for the Auto attack version or the Vire version…
I think only conversion is/was to Shaman WPS and not Savagery itself. Which is kinda odd since you want Savagery anyway. But even if you play with Fire Strike for some reason, you still want lightning to fire conversion.
Surely. Global lightning to fire conversion, or only for Savagery, will look perfect.
Also, I think it will be nice to replace +4 to Temper with +4 to Savagery and armor bonus with some OA.
