SY is extremely good. Only trouble is you need to have a high enough kurz/lux rank to get it up to 4 seconds so its kept up

agressive is fine even with ca...o noes I only barely have over 100 armor. IAS w/ Ag ref. makes it 1.1 seconds. Thus you receive 2 strikes every 1.1 seconds due to FGJ. you need 8 strikes for SY, so it would take you 4.4 seconds to get 200 points for SY (ie 4 strikes).

4.4 seconds is greater than 3 seconds. therefore it cannot be able to be kept up at all times.

hehe Leadership at 10+ will fill SY at the same rate as FGJ. Adrenaline gain is capped at 100% so using both at the same time does nothing unless you're in an area with Soothing (I think). If you want to maintain a perma-SY with only 3 seconds you would need Dark Fury or Mark of Fury.

gg Yeah...you only keep the team totally immortal for 75% of the time.

Totally crap skill, why bother?

You won the argument.

Just be careful to take ag refrain if you have a hero monk with condition removal. Otherwise they'll end up wasting energy trying to get rid of cracked armor all the time. Really wish a.net would just give us a -20 armor effect in the skill instead of a condition.

Agreed, aggressive refrain's nerf was distasteful.

That and Im going for leg survivor and Im taking all precautions to stop myself from FAAAAAIIILING.



My two cents is that the Focused Anger, Save Yourselves!, Theres Nothing to Fear! and Go For The Eyes! combo makes PvE a walk in the proverbial park.

Especially with a high luxon/kurz rank, Save Yourselves! is practically constant.
