Yes and no. I think bleeding builds are “rarer”. But regarding pierce there are maybe 5 viable (and when I say viable, I mean end-game SR 65, crucible 6:30 minimum) pierce builds as of now.
Valdun’s
Belgo
SR set + 2x reaver cadence
Firozo’s pierce blade arc (I may be wrong here. @mad_lee)
And I used bad english: With “amount” I wanted to ask, how much RR a typical Pierce Build has. 60, 70 %?
I am still thinking how to make a Pierce (foremost)/Bleeding Hybrid with Rancor. Thought about Conjurer with 100 % Vitality to Pierce conversion, but the RR would be about 20+32+25=77 % (if I could squeeze in Revenant).
I am thinking if it is possible to build a Pierce Build with a fair amount of Bleeding (which has a certain impact). Like all my Bleeding Builds have either Piercing or Physical support for ADctH, this build should have a decent DoT via Bleeding.
Both Shaman and Occultist support Vitality. If I could this made to Piercing (and support it with devotions), I might even squeeze in some Bleeding Damage because Vitality/Bleeding Devotions are roughly in the same direction.
I think the best course of action here will be to make a separate variant of Rancor that supports a spam Pierce build. That way we can tune both independently and remove this gimmicky workaround of the penalty.
