Law of diminishing returns apply to ph. fury?
Neenu Waffler-Warrior for what once was the Toast-
A:
Phantasmal Fury is a 10second buff that gets reapplied every like 7 seconds or something so it is CONSTANTLY applied.
I would say that it’s not overkill. Plus, if you’re using phantasms that inflict multiple hits, such as the iZerker or iDuelist, the extra crit chance from fury becomes more reliable as initial burst. For instance, the iDuelist attacks eight times. At 50% crit chance, half of those attacks will be crits. At 70% crit chance, 5-6 of those attacks will be crits, which is a substantial amount of extra damage.
Of course, I can’t give you definitive advice without knowing your exact build and playstyle and how losing other traits would affect you (such as Duelist’s Discipline), but in general, I’d advise taking that trait if you want more front-loaded burst damage. Do keep in mind that the fury does have a time limit so it will only apply to the first couple rounds of phantasm attacks, so it loses some value if you are using phantasms for sustained damage without refreshing them.

Sounds good, thanks Palu.

Palu’s post is excellent with one exception: the fury is not time limited. Phantasmal fury is a permanent boon on the phantasms refreshing every 10 seconds iirc.
You have very high crit power. As a rule of thumb, as your crit power increases, each point of crit chance is worth more, and at high crit power increasing your crit chance is by far the best way to increase damage.
