@ yea but the 3s judgement cd which is off the gcd makes up for it imo. U lose int that’s for sure but when judgement crits for 3k every 3 sec that’s 1k dps
Curious as to what you think about the viability of the 6 set bonus from Draconic T2. Could you feasibly replace a healer in the raid comp while focusing almost entirely on DPS?
Maybe, but your dps wont be really good. ZG Set is mandatory to do some at least viable dps as a Shockadin. Playing the T2 Holy 6 Set makes you sort of a battle healer. I think its a really cool concept, but I never was able to try it, because Im not a Holy main.
@ Fair Enough! I’m just thinking, if you could trade out a healer spot in your raid comp for someone who does 60-70% as much damage as a dedicated DPS and who is able to heal competently BY DPS’ing, wouldn’t it be a significantly larger net DPS gain, while simultaneously taking advantage of the considerable healing and utility that shockadin is able to provide?
@@patrickburke2187 u can get full wbfs to 3k dps and consec will heal for 500-600 each tick and that’s only for the group can easy go zg set and 4p holy t2 for that 600+ hps consecration. If u wanna go the full 6p ur dps will go down by at least 1k but your beacon target will be immortal. Personally in raid is not so good. Dungeons and pvp the holy t2 works best
@ only if your raid supports the ideea and plan accordingly. Using a gcd to put beacons on diff targets is both a dps and hps loss. Mages and druids are better with healing while doing dmg
@@mariusflo1 I'm guessing he is referring to the nerf in Phase 4, where instead of Holy Shock resetting after a crit, the cooldown is reduced to 3 seconds instead. This killed the Holy Shock chain that we were hoping for and was a last minute nerf.
@@GKSonick understandable but it being 3 sec don’t affect much the rotation the actual cd is 1.5 sec due to gcd. So u can squeeze a exo after the shock and if u crit with shock basically comes off cd after the 2nd spell. This to me is more organic. And overall is not a nerf cuz they doubled the int on shock and awe. Gladly give up 1 gcd for 500-600 more spell damage

Ey good shit man I’m glad u went the SoR route. But why dropping the 4p ret t2?
Because I wanted to get as much Intelligence as possible. 4 Set Ret has no Int at all, which scales really poorly for this way of playing.

Interested to see how the t2.5 set plays out with shockadin

I think so, you will just focus your melee / tank group

Whats your role? hybrid heal-dps?
In my raid I can go pure dps, but hybrid dps/heal should be your role :)
Sadly they completely killed shockadin. Otherwise i wouldve played it.
how they killed it?
