Hey all.
Im a new DH fan, enjoying the class so far.
I cant find any information on various guides about Throw Glaive.
Is it part of any rotation in pve? I figured use it during groups of 2 or more? Heard a few people say its a complete waste of GCD.
Is it worth using ever?
Thanks!
Are you out of melee range and can’t get close enough to attack in the next 1.5 seconds? Do you have zero charges of fel rush and are currently running to get to melee range?
If so it’s a dps gain to throw it. Otherwise no.
EDIT: if you’re running demon blades / fel blade and have genuinely dead GCDs then of course throw it then too.
Should be renamed Don’t Throw Glaive
I propose “vestigial ranged attack”.
i use it on my tank as as aggro grab when the enemy is out of range. it has a decent threat.
It definitely has it’s uses. But for a DH to throw one of the most iconic weapons of the game at something I just wish it actually hurt to get hit by it.
When playing Havoc, it shouldn’t be a part of your main rotation, though I almost always lead with it when doing M+ and driving into a large group. I also will use it when I’m forced out of melee range (IE: Sharknado in Freehold)
Vengeance is a little different in the fact that it’s used as a filler if you have Fracture talented.
If you are running Felblade/Demon Blades and have open GCDs, it’s your filler of last resort.
