I'm not sure how you're doing it. =O Especially since one time you just posted straight to Disqus and it gave you your cool-looking icon and stuff.<br /><br />Anyway, your math is definitely correct! Damage that takes 12 seconds to kill you with 0 healing seems low, though. People would be dying within a few seconds of Feud beginning if no healing happened (even if they were brought to 100% before the healing stopped). Certainly under 6 seconds. I mean you're right, we haven't seen what the T14 raid encounters will look like! But I would be extremely surprised to see SB outperform IH as they currently are.Peregrinahttp://piercing-shots.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8028265023128899364.post-86697470735516674682012-04-16T22:23:03.006-05:002012-04-16T22:23:03.006-05:00What do you mean, this is Disqus?
Let's say ...What do you mean, this is Disqus? <br /><br />Let's say you have 200k health. Every 6 sec you take 100k damage. After 60 sec you would have taken 15k 10 times = 150k less damage because of Ironhawk. Or Spirit Bond would have healed you 3% of 200k every 2 sec = 180k.<br /><br />It's not necessarily as straightforward as it seems.Laeleiweynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8028265023128899364.post-67172286758411820682012-04-16T21:53:08.914-05:002012-04-16T21:53:08.914-05:00I actually disagree, even for Chimaeron. When the ...I actually disagree, even for Chimaeron. When the Bileotron is up, the healers are going to use the same tools to get you over 10k regardless of anything else, so you basically have to compare the talents during Feud.<br /><br />Deterrence's 50% DR for 5 seconds is nice, sure - but Feud lasts *30* seconds. And you have to stop DPS while Deterrence is up! Iron Hawk lets you continue to DPS the entire time *and* it will prevent more damage total. The amount of damage it prevents will also dwarf SB's healing done.<br /><br />Remember that SB just heals 3% of your total health every few seconds, but in high-damage situations (when this stuff actually matters), Iron Hawk will be preventing 15% of *over one-hundred percent of your total health*. There's no contest. =(<br /><br />Also! *How* do you keep finding the blogspot comments!? I thought I had them hidden behind Disqus everywhere. @.@Peregrinahttp://piercing-shots.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8028265023128899364.post-69678561117321278692012-04-16T21:34:44.644-05:002012-04-16T21:34:44.644-05:00It would still be situational.

You also get buffs from some healers heals that makes you more receivable to heals (if they're not removing that.) This might be their way of weighing up for raptor strike + glyph disappears. And with that glyph you would see even more disparity between top and lower. There are probably still hunters out there unaware of this glyph, or unaware of the advantages of it.Laeleiweynnoreply@blogger.com
