Hi, I am playing Bleed Warder and dont know should I pick Manticore constellation or I have enough resistance reduction from Devouring Swarm and Rend? Thanks in advance.
flat resist reduction sources dont stack (IE: anything without a %, like acid spray/elemental storm/wind devil evo) so if your build already has a source of this, acid spray from manticore is redundant and wasted. if you DONT have another source of flat resist reduction, and if you can get acid spray without sacrificing survivability (which is arguably better for ultimate) then go for it.
swarm has 40% bleed RR at 16/16 and gets another % for every point after, rend has 28% bleed RR, thats an easy 68%+ bleed RR before gear.
the thing you have to figure out yourself is how you are going to balance out survivability and additional RR if you plan on tackling ultimate.
Thanks,
I am playing very defensively (Wendigo totem, shield, Menhir’s Bulwark, hp buffs) so I guess I could use it.
Also note that there are some enemy types with incredibly high bleed resist like undead or those obsisian chthonic guys so there’s really no such thing as too much bleed RR and as a Warder you really have no other worthwhile options for flat RR that applies to bleed i think so i’d definitely go for it.
looking at bleed gear on grim tools, there doesnt seem to be any good bleed resist reduction, which is a bit disappointing to me.
you might NEED acid spray, straight up.
Yes, take it, it’s very much worth it.
