Super boring but it’s the first raid tier of the expansion, so to be expected I suppose.

Most sets look to be very boring. Not much thought on gameplay interaction.

Though I do like the blood one overall.

I’m concerned that the Frost tier bonus will favor Breath builds significantly more than Obliteration builds.

100%. Though I am curious if it will affect the damage from artic assault or not.

I personally am hyped for DW oblit shattering blade with it. *assuming it is viable

Definitely does. But you are always going to either favour one or the other to some degree. Obliteration has mostly been favoured in DF.

BoS is getting some changes so who knows how it will play out.

It may not be exciting but getting a haste bonus early in the expansion is nice for unholy.

For sure. It pretty much locks in the new magus talent imo to get the buff with every SD proc. (Which I don’t mind, I am not a gary fan)

Yeah we’re going to be proc’ing it a lot. If army and abom also proc it we’re going to be eating good early in the expansion. I know the tree isn’t perfect but it looks so much better than what we have now.

I like blood but the other two seem way too bland.
Like when this set bonus goes away Haste is gonna feel mega-gimp for Frost and Unholy.

these tier sets are next level uninteresting
