User:Oblio/BeastMaster

Working on a Beast Master for general PVE. This is essentially a modification of Build:R/any Tank Master to see what I like best.

Attributes and Skills

 * Bestial Pounce is used until I can cap Enraged Lunge.
 * I need to evaluate the healing situation. Perhaps a /Mo secondary, or get some ungent.
 * Viper's Nest is not the best trap for backline defence... I want something with blind or cripple.
 * Are 3 protection skills necessary?

Testing Notes

 * Predatory Bond works nicely at max BM, but it isn't a reliable self heal. Troll Unguent gives 160 HP @WS=11 over 13 seconds. Healing Signet gives 115 HP over 6 seconds @T=10. My thought is to favor the signet since it's negative armor condition only hurts you when you are engaged, and you don't want to be engaged with this build. The only advantage of going Wilderness Survival is that I can then pack a Barbed Trap or some such IN ADDITION TO Viper's Nest (which is needed for Enraged Lunge damage. Goddam is Res Signet killing this build.  It's cut.


 * Symbiotic Bond has to go. That skill forces you to be constantly healing yourself and letting your pet work. I want a mixed approach.


 * Consider this as the new goal:
