Comment by ChioyI'm wondering how Venthyrs one will impact PvPComment by GeddehBwomsamdi's pact needs a bit more context, are they increased by 25% each time you use Shadow Word death until fae gaurdians expires? Does this stack?

If yes to both this could have huge implications in M+ with Death and MadnessComment by WaldschreinLooks good to be able to sync PI with kyrian burst !Comment by vultrazWow, the necro stuff looks pretty good fantasy-wise! This Kyrian legendary combined with new Mikanikos trait could reduce Boon's cd to one minute, not sure if it will be strong, but 15% boon uptime could be funny at least.Comment by SithalosSo.. Boon leggo with Mikanikos = 1 min boon?

Hmm..Comment by ComeAndSeeThe Night Fae one is kind of interesting...

Only problem is Holy Priests are stuck with a mandatory legendary to even play the game... i.e. flash concentration.Comment by SithalosOnly problem is Holy Priests are stuck with a mandatory legendary to even play the game... i.e. flash concentration.Comment by vultrazRegarding the Kyrian stuff, I mainly play Holy, but as far as I understand the other two, Disc and Shadow cannot always get maximum Boon stacks. For Holy it can be pretty competitive as a dps increase for mythic+, since other spec legendaries are healing-only.Comment by LordOfGiftsBwomsamdi's pact needs a bit more context, are they increased by 25% each time you use Shadow Word death until fae gaurdians expires?

Cast time is...increased? So the legendary nerfs you? lol. Who cares about the extra charge when the cast time is increased. That makes it potentially not worth casting over some other ability.Comment by SaispaiShadow Word: Manipulation (Venthyr) Mindgames gains 1 addtional charge and its cast time is increased by 50%.

Flash concentration is still going to be the best in m+, maybe disc can use this in M+ idk. In raids it would still be meh.

Kyrian feels like they get the best overall deal, rewarded for good use with a more easily measurable benefit.Comment by AlatheiaBwomsamdi's pact needs a bit more context, are they increased by 25% each time you use Shadow Word death until fae gaurdians expires? Does this stack?

If yes to both this could have huge implications in M+ with Death and MadnessComment by SchattensangThe Venthyr one looks like a straight nerf, maybe something you could use in very niche situations. But even with 50% decreased cast time, I don't think it would make much of a difference. That would not even translate to one global every 45 seconds. And with one additional charge, when you have no way (other than waiting) of getting those charges back? The other three look okay, which makes Venthyr look even worse and like a poor excuse for a legendary.Comment by QuatinThe Venthyr one looks awful, and for a legendary I would expect, ~15 sec lowered CD and Instant cast or instant cast, un'dispelable and the reversals being like warlock's Doom at the end of the debuffComment by TersiiI imagine the venthyr one is going to be good in arena. Forcing dispels then using the second and such.
