Your videos speak for themselves, and the mental gymnastics involved for such shoddy workmanship with what you think would be "simple" after 25 years of EQ is funny to say the least.
If you had your torpor up consistently you would never see HP problems, let alone mana. But cool story though, keep on keepin on lol [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

Thanks for conceding. It is clear you can only provide poorly constructed insults, and nothing else.

I can’t see justifying Pox or ebolt unless c2 and potg. Bane works really quick. Even keeping up with the cycle life of that with torp/canni is difficult. Pox and JBB is ok skipping Bane but otherwise those low duration dots are a PITA to click between. | |||

There's not that much difference in damage between Bane and Ebolt, and Ebolt actually has a marginally better DPM. More importantly, Malo/sini doesn't reduce disease resist. If the goal is mana efficiency and not finishing the mob as fast as possible, it makes sense to forgo the disease dot. While Pox is slightly more DPM than the poison dots, it's not by much, and it gets resisted far more often. Nobody wants to devote a spell slot, mana and cast time to Insidious Decay. It's hard enough fitting in all the shit you need.

Spamming Bane is the faster but riskier strategy, unless the mob is already easy. I haven't seen Pox get resisted "far more often" than poison. Poison gets resisted more from my experience. I imagine this is just RNG from both perspectives, unless someone can show some data about mob resists.

Those are fringe cases, though. I don't imagine that anyone who sees fit to ask if JBB is any good is about to embark on an attempt at a WW dragon. For any ordinary shaman-soloable mob up to and including juggs, the fact that Malo doesn't reduce disease resist makes it necessary to consider whether or not it's worth using Pox at all. By and large, if you're able to kill the mob without using a disease dot, it's better not to. The risk of a resist, or the hassle of including Insidious Decay in your routine, makes it not worth doing in any fight that doesn't require min-maxing every moment of the encounter. Disease dots are not that much more efficient than poison dots, and a resist can fuck you over from the get-go.

The best argument for JBB is it being 1/5th the price of an epic and resellable so from 45-60 it's a tolerable way to grind.
Once you get torp mana is less limited. JBB becomes a green killer like for someone whos painfully slogging through droga or adding to quick kills with a duo/trio after slowing. One click of Bane is a massive chunk of hps for the same cast speed...it's the workhorse of your spells and for most stuff the only damage spell you need on the bar. The more hps something has the more a double-line debuff and disease makes sense. Hell start meleeing with your scourge mallet too I guess. Just not low hp stuff like in Chardok. On non-rooted stuff where you can sit/swap spells if you are quick, keeping disease on the bar takes up 3 gems. It's also half the kill speed of bane only once fully debuffed. I guess if I was moving through greens I might pull with it, root, and epic click the epic. That gives the most dot/mana for the least amount of clicks. Overall though it's pretty underwhelming unless killing things in that 25k+ hp range, speculatively as I never have done that. | ||
