How important is Elixer B for DPSers? what can replace it *no kits plz *

Utility goggles

goggles is better than Elixer B’s might + Fury?

Not really… although it does have 10 stacks of vulnerability from analyze.

Elixir b used to be amazing until the November 15th patch. They basically cut the boon duration in half (used to be able to maintain those boons indefinitely). I used this with an elixir grenadier build with elixir h,b, and s, and it was awesome. The low recast on the utility and tool belt with 409 made it very effective at condition healing with the other boons. It’s much less effective now so I no longer use it but there are good builds that use it. I think the tankcat build uses it, but that type of build isntt really my style

Goggles is a stunbreak + blind immunity, so if you’re a melee range PvP burst spec goggles may be better. The might from the elixir doesn’t nearly make up for ten stacks of vulnerability/stunbreak/blind immunity.

If we’re talking about chucking grenades at mobs, go elixir B. Also go B if you’re trying to be tanky and expect to get hit quite a bit—the retaliation part of the skill is often overlooked, but has great effects with builds like the tankcat.

Medikit’s #5, Elixir B, and 20% Elixir cooldown reduction will give you infinite fury and swiftness.
