If a necro touches u most likely dead why can’t smoke screen have a dot clear it’s on a mainhand essence n also pretty usless in current state
Not only DH. Even wizard has no way to clear the dot.
The Calculus Ice Block is supposed to be the Wizard’s Invincibility skill, yet the DOT can bypass it and kill the wizard inside the Ice Block.
Teleport with Extraction Harness does not work against DoT ? How many charges with that essence ? If 3 i think you can clear most of DoT.

It works. I just forgot about that because using that shoulder will significantly impacting the Wizard build in bad way.
That’s the thing. Most classes have defense or counter mechanisms that costs dps. Nobody wants to trade of dps for defense except a few classes that perform well in pvp with both attack and defense.
The result ? Players die fast and a lot. Each meta has a counter in each classe in terms of skills+essence but requires not to play current meta builds.
If you look at shields, dh and crusader at least can do +550% damages to shields but this is not part of a meta build.
The problem is if i replace that shoulder, my build will completely disabled or neutered since my build require X shoulder to be functioned.
For example, if i wear X shoulder, my beam laser will become non-channeling skill, but if i forced to use that shoulder that remove DoT, then i can’t use beam laser skill anymore because default channeling laser beam is bad in BG.
In other words, if i use shoulder that remove DoT, i need to completely get a new build for it, and the question is, will that new build going to do well in BG?
That’s how i design my own build. I start from a meta counter essence then add skills that fit with it or that are not too heavily impacted by the slot lost in the process.
I found a few interesting builds and new playstyle that way. It is also the opportunity to test other essences and magical bonus.
I understand the pain ^^
