Fel Bombardment?

Has anyone tried this? I’m interested, but heard there were a lot of bugs with it or something.

Is it at all competitive with others?

Thanks

It is the bis legendary for 3+ target cleave, which means it’s the best legendary for castle nathria

It is? How come nobody is talking about it and no guides have it rated high? All I hear about is Collective Anguish and Chaos Theory.

Plenty of people are talking about it. Just not in the wow forums

Feel free to sim your character and you’ll arrive at the same result

Only ‘issue’ I’ve heard about this legendary is that the range of the ‘toss glaive at nearby target’ is BIG, like, 20yd or so big. Which can be rough if you pull extra packs.

This is the only complaint I’ve heard though… according to other evidence, the legendary is actually quite ok.

(Aside from trying to rope in another non-used ability into our rotation, that is)

first of all you can’t get it until reset, so nobody actually tried it on live

So now that it’s actually out, and i’ve played with it, it’s definitely a pure AOE legendary. It’s hot, hot garbage with any less than 3 targets, ideally 5+ targets.

The proc rate per target is very low, single target you’ll be lucky to get 1-2 stacks, and it does NOT throw the extra glaives at your primary target, unlike on beta, if you only have 1 target and a 5 stack, it just throws one glaive for 250% extra.

The fact that it has such a huge downside in single target means it’s kind of a niche legendary, collective anguish is very comparable in cleave/aoe and much better single target, so it’s the much safer craft. Fel bombardment is more fun though, dropping a big glaive bomb in aoe is really cool, it’s just way too garbage in 1-2 target situations.

so good for fortified M+ weeks, sun king, torghast… etc

Agree with you here. Had high hopes but super disappointed in it so far. Barely notice the damage and the proc rate makes this thing so clunky to play with.

By the time I get any relative stacks going, mobs dead and buff fades away a lot of the time. Maybe I have to play with it just passively and not count buff stacks.

Hopefully they buff the proc rate or something. Until then I’ll be waiting for LFR to get my BIS lego or maybe I will get lucky one day in a normal raid.

Currently my plan is to use FB in MT and 3+tar fights and CT in ST
