I made a build, by playing around with the Retributive Armor trait. You get lots of toughness and at the same time, lots of ferocity. It’s purpose is generally for PvE content.

Thoughts? (no hate pls)

I quite like the idea and will probably test it tonight :-)

You can also swap one Superior Sigil of Accuracy for Superior Sigil of Perception

I was thinking something similar, except instead of honor, either Dragonhunter in a group (For the damage boosts, and the chronomancer will be helping you with the retaliation uptime since you’ll be giving them retaliation to AoE copy with Signet of Inspiration) or Virtues (For the retaliation when activating a virtue, and the damage boosts).

I also was thinking of cutting down to 0 crit. Banner of Discipline, Fury and Spotter will give 36% crit chance. With the 4% base crit and the 50% while you have retaliation + 10% vs burning foes, that gets to the point where more crit is useless.

Yeah with the new update, this build gets super strong now. Especially with Symbolic Avenger, converting toughness to power too? And the massive crit chance from Radiance alone.

P.S. I posted this before the latest update.

And yes those are good ideas. We can really cut down our precision for more ferocity! Oh this excites me so much.

Greetings,

Retribution: This trait now grants Ferocity while you have retaliation, in addition to its previous effect.

I’ve noticed that i get the ferocity effect without retaliation, someone tell me this is not a bug please because i feel blessed right now….
