WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NECROLORD HUNTER MASTERRACE !

If they ever leave one thing this should be it, im tired of Nightfae being OP, let us be viable as Necrolords and maybe some love for our Venthyr bros.

While changing covenant wasnt hard, took me 10 days of casual play to get renown 36 after swapping from Necrolords and unlocked the portal system in sanctum.

The difference on AoE and single target is disgusting, went from 4.5-5k overall in keys to 6k+ and AoE Bursts up to 35k on smart big pulls as a 222 MM Hunter with not a lot of BIS items since i prefer haste so went Crit>Haste>Mastery, might do more with better items.

I got KSM and Curve as Necro, was a pain but doable but could be a heck of a lot better.

Maybe a typo, probably only 20% on Nightfea.

That NF legendary really feels like they are taunting hunters. Are they that out of touch?

And that Kyrian one might as well not exist. Nobody is going to be using that weak of a legendary.

-Our best legendary, Serpentstalkers Trickery, says that Aimed Shot also fires a Serpent Sting at the primary target. (Damage dot)
-Wild Spirits deals damage to anything within the AOE effect when you damage a target within it.
-The "bug" (but not really because it makes sense that this would happen) is that Aimed Shot was triggering the Wild Spirits damage twice. Once for the Aimed Shot itself and again for the Serpent Sting being fired/applied.

i'm not a raider but wouldn't 5% crit be over for a 20 man raid over a single target increase for yourself?

Party, not raid.

Night Fae doubles the damage at most.

The necrolord one multiplies Chakram damage by something like 1000%. The damage on Explosive shot is crazy high compared to that of Chakram. Plus, in AoE, that explosive damage hits all targets nearby too, scaling way way harder.

That's assuming that it actually places an Explosive Shot on each target and it's not just like the explosive shot damage to each target (as if you had just used ES once). If it's the former, it's nuts.

There's a power from Torghast that does the same thing, looks like this is just a copy of that. That power actually applies the explosive shot debuff to mobs and then they take damage from each explosion.

I would assume that it may be able to stack, and it's party specific. Good raid leggo? Eh, maybe. Sounds like it would need a lot of forethought on CD usage with you and your party, and the payoff might not even be that great

why? RA is a 1 min CD. all other CDs are on minute intervals aside from a couple that are 1:30. It'd line up naturally
