I’m running a supporty bunker bomb build, and I’m thinking of going full clerics with knight’s jewellery, or mixed cleric and shamans with knight’s or carrion jewellery.

Survivability is key, but damage is important too. I want to know if it’d be better to focus purely on raw power or go for a mix of power and condition damage. In general, which is better for bombs/elixergun/pistolshield ?

Remember if you are to FOTM, Agony punished any build with Vitality so stay away from Vitality. For anything else vitality is nice.

I find our healing is quite adequate, espiecially healing turret (4k heal + 1.3 splash heal+ f1 regen extra heal for the win! )
Both options I have tried, and I find it better to stick carrion if you don’t have condition damage and vitality from traits. Also do you need to go into a healing build? I thought that too but you find that everyone has their own heal to help, I say the best way to help is to be a kitten tank boss so your survivabilty is op, and when everyone down, res and heal and go back to destroying the kitten out of the mobs.
