You think this is omens of war?

Probably a bit overtuned here, but he's definitely procing a lot in that vid.

I don't disagree with the fact that it is a proc, what I think however is either the proc rate is set too high (unlikely) OR the proc has a cooldown/recharge on it (more likely).

I'm basing this on the timings I posted each of which the cleric is hit and loses by a buff being rather fixed on the timing spread. 12-14seconds each time. So I wouldn't doubt he is supposed to proc it, but cannot do more than once per 12 seconds or something.

Did you resist any? 20 Seconds with no proc is very uncharacteristic of this mob.

Of the procs I posted all were as a result of Flurries on the MT.

[khanable]

I didn't resist any. I had like 120 FR.

I did resist two fears though, fuck yeah suck it sont!

Sont is basically shakerpaging! The more he can hit the worse it will be!

I heard someone else give that explanation, then they proceeded to suggest Shakerpaging worked because furious discipline and ripostes. I had to facepalm hard. It's not called Shakerfurious is it???

It seems like he is just an overpowered VS, whose proc is AE and he dispells your runes to prevent the proc. And he Flurrys. And he fears with an OP fear.

[Legday]

Worth noting that the Rampage kills have been with 60-70 players and Sont starts fleeing when Rampage has less than 10 ppl standing after blowing thousands of plat on clickies, so he is *barely* killable.

He's broken yeah, but it just requires a solid strat that does NOT involve 100 ppl hitting him in the face.
