I didn’t say you were dumb, I said IMO (in my opinion) gimping yourself by using only 1 skill that has a cooldown is dumb. You aren’t maximizing your damage potential, as you are doing nothing imbetween casts. And even so you said you killed Fabius within a Minute which is actually quite fast for doing nothing half the time. Which makes me believe TSS is actually in a good place.
Edit** Your build isn’t a TSS only build, as you clearly are using High Potency and Stun Jacks.
Edit 2** I already said that my builds weren’t only relying on TSS as I would never make a build using only 1 skill with a cooldown.
as I said i respect the exchange of opinion. I think you can agree with me if TSS is only the minor force of your damage, then naming your BD a TSS BD is improper.
But what I did with TSS is very challenging. so far nobody from my community can do that yet. and there are alot of people who are actually better than me.
I am not saying TSS is totally bad ,because with what I can do with it, I see its possibilities as well as weakness. that’s why I am feedback what I observe.
If designers see it and drop it . there’s nothing more I can do.
BUT I hope it gets better and more useful. it’s not a wrong idea.
Obviously I’m biased as I love the skill, I just don’t want to see them ruin it by over buffing it. Or by making to many changes to it. Can’t wait for Asylum101 to send me the Lightning Caster Mod he’s making, so I can finally play my Chain Lightning/TSS dream character
Unfortunately I hate the Beam Skills with a passion. Tho your build definitely looks like the funnest beam build I have seen. Also I’m way to much of a sissy to run around with below 9K life
I’d have to say what has been said already concerning TSS, it is more of a support CC skill and from what I can see that was it’s design intention. Gotta fat crowd in front of you? Here, let’s drop some icicles on their heads.
If you end up using it as your main dmg dealer then that’s just something you have to work with, and clearly you have made the most of it.
As for PRM I wouldn’t be averse to seeing a rework of some kind on that either because, like you point out, it requires some heavy investment which honestly is the real weakness of the line. I’d almost rather see the line chopped in half (or a quarter) and condensed and have a new skill created in the void.
I tried building TSS Druid because the classes seemed to have a good synergy. Dropped the char at the beginning of Elite. TSS as a main damage source sucks. Either the CD is too big, or the AOE is too small… Anyway, I just feel uncomfortable to play it, and I OFF to be much more rewarding it terms of clear speeds. I ended up barely using TSS, only to kill the bosses, though I planned to build around it. TSS may be a good supplementary skill, but I doubt it may be build-defining at this point.
I don’t know if i get it right. So…you can kill nemesis with skill that was designed against packs of trash mobs and not against single target in one minute, which is pretty good time and you still complain about it because it appears to you underwhelming, right? Wait, what? Seriously?
