This is my Trozan warlock, losing little bit damage due to focusing on defense
Performance:
Average clear speed is 6:30, I believe.
Pretty decent and quite tanky. The tankyness coming from huge lifesteal from sigil, Bleed, Poison, Vit max res & 18% enemy damage reduction from cataclysm.
And this is my iskandra warlock, with similar devotion setup
Performance:
Even struggling to get sub 7:30. Weaker in every aspects. Weaker TSS, squishier.
Iskandra is literally weakest TSS set right now. In my opinion the fire conversion feels like debuff instead set bonus because how detrimental it is. The fire part doesn’t get damage bonus from star pact and trozan starkeeper. Also fire conversion make RR devotions like murmur and arcane bomb way less effective. The RR from iskandra text is nice but it’s only affect single target each procs.
Beside fire part, trozan set is better due to -0,5 second cooldown is way more consistent than CDR proc on iskandra. Furthermore trozan also have DA shred from the ice comet.
Strongest arcanist build lagging ~2 minutes behind the best autoattackers and behind pets that’s notorious for having poor aoe clear.
As a notorious Panetti player playing even worse build than these it’s sadly nothing new. Damage from skillshot, armor/hp from glass and duct tape. Sustain from pressing mirror.
Acanist feels like it’s made for gen x people like me who don’t mind 120% movement speed, things dies this side of christmas (hopefully), blitzing aournd is something I think I did back in the 80s - 90s.
While I do agree that Iskandra set is not the strongest one out there (and according to our top20 tests even Trozan set is not even good enough to be included in our grimsheet), I gotta say that comparing two Warlocks is a bit incorrect here. Trozan set fully supports Warlocks while Iskandra set is a single mastery set that last time I checked plays better as a Sorc (or maybe templar).
Well yeah, I know that one set is stronger than another, I agree with that part of your feedback I am just saying Warlock or Druid are obviously gonna favour Trozan set as not only it’s stronger but also is specifically made for those classes unlike Iskandra.
Need 1:20 to destroy 4 dummies while on my previous video need 1:28 for Iskandra Sorc to destroy them. For single target the gap doesn’t seems too far.
My suggestion:
-Add fire&burn damage bonus on TSS to compensate damage loss from fire conversion.
-Reduce RR from iskandra text but add AOE RR proc on complete set.
