Power. Phantasms is all about big hits, not conditions. In open world boss situations I’ve seen iWarlock hit for 12-15K damage (I’m not a full berserker). Have 3 out and it rack up damage fast.

Full zerk awesome situation iWarlock crits hit for 25k at Dwayna here. But in general phantasms hit about 8-10k, it’s more you would ever achieve with condis.

Yeah well you sacrifice a little damage for 2100 toughness and raid oriented build :p

If its only PvE we’re talking about, I’d go full berserker too. Definetly power for phantasms.
