"lol onslought".
WTF is onslought? I mean.. there IS a derv elite called Onslaught...

And what is the point of your thread.. so you say Onslaught sucks. Because it gives you a 25% attack buff. =\
Personally, i think 25% > 0% buff. You dont even say what other elites would make a better choice than Onslaught and WHY it sucks.. you just listed what it does.

Kinda like. Lol, Word of Healing SUCKS. It heals you. kthnxbye. im going to my wtfomgBBQ.

For example, with Avatar of Balthazar, there's that whole argument about how the armor, speed, and holy damage all just fail to work together well.

I actually like the idea behind Onslaught. I'm sure we can all agree, scythe attacks are pretty painful.

However, the simple fact of the matter is... is not only Onslaught in a bad attribute line (to be fair, a lot of both Earth and Wind Prayers are useless fluff), but it's actual effect - 25/25% reduction - isn't strong enough to warrant it's elite spot, especially in the face of truly terrifying elites like Mel and Lyssa.

Onslaught doesn't need a 25% attack buff. That's what Vow of Strength are for.

An increase in the effects it has - say attacks recharge 50% faster and cost half energy - would make it worth using, though.

...if they aren't, they don't get used. By extension, that means they might as well not be there.
