Does this build still have good dps with a 5L given the recent nerfs?

Use a quill rain and a thief's torment for mana, and have a blast

My understanding, from browsing the forums, is that with the CoC internal cooldown Quill rain is actually to fast now and a little slower wpn, like a storm cloud, is much more desirable.

Or is that misinformation?

I'm not sure, I would think that is just with lightning arrow since the lightning damage doesn't have to travel (which is how people were using it). If you used split + chain for packs I think you'd be fine, then barrage for single target.

Hey guys, whats up? So, i exploited the hell out of the Duelist blender build for like 8 months till i grew completly tired of it. So i had this lvl 80 Duelist on Domination with gg gear, sold everything, reseted my duelist and bought this ger:

The build as a duelist (one of the starting branches are very similar to the shadow starting area, wich makes it pretty much the same build as the OP):

So, i made sure to get the best i could, great wands, 20/20 gemns and such, but even with that, im having a rlly hard time dealing with single mobs. AoE wise, im demolishing everything with 1~2 casts. But when it comes to single target, my damage just flat out sucks! Im having troubles even dealing with merc Piety (Dominus is a no go!). Any way to improve single target damage?

Also, i wouldnt consider the survivability of this build/set up to be decent. Since i have to keep kiteing everything so i can stay alive. Yes i got nearly the same amount of armor as i did with my blender (around 9k self buffed grace), but whitout a bigger block/blind chance or other methods to mitigate damage, i can be very easily killed. The conversion of 40% physical damage taken to lightning damage provided by lightning coil doesnt do much imo (i tried without it using the tabula rasa, and i noticed no diference, defense-wise, compared to using the Lightning Coil). Am i missing something to improve on my survivability?


I really like the build for the fun it provides, but we have to come up with a way to deal with single target mobs and improve survivability.
