Hey fam what do you think the best BM covenant will be and/or what are you choosing
Venthyr is the most well rounded covenant for all specs & content, including PvP. That said, Kyrian does synergize extremely well with MM if you are considering giving that a try at all.

Veth atm due to decent single target damage. The one minute cd door of shadows also gives you a cc on the fear DR table to line up with stun / traps perfectly.

Did you get beta hog? Iām curious if the necrolord ability might be decent after the recent change to it no longer cleaving to CC targets.
Iāve had beta since it started. I guess they wanted feedback from one of the 3 of us who still pvp as BM.
Necro gives slightly higher damage, but it can obviously be wasted on a non-kill target if a team stacks.
The Venth damage attack is a pretty easy āfire and forgetā on top of the fact that the 1min door of shadows gives you an aoe disorient DR cc to help extend cc chains. You can use the door of shadows offensively or defensively (for cc / peels). Any aoe disorient on a 1 minute cd will probably be too good to pass up on for pvp.
It feels like having a 1.5 second dragonbreath with a 35 yard range. Iād probably take Venth just for the door of shadows tbh.

Lol true story. Iām most likely going to play MM for a bit, at least until Iāve had my fill extracting revenge against caster cleaves. BM/Fury does synergize pretty well though, so I imagine I will swap back to BM at some point later in the season or if I suck rocks with MM.
That necrolord soulbind also looks super good for a more defensive option:

The 20% shield on a 30 sec cd + the fleshcraft immunity are really helpful
Iām still torn between Venthyr and Necrolord. Venthyr is the better playmaker but Necrolord just seem more reliable overall and reliable tends to offer more value overall most of the time.
