Currently using perplexity.

Debating on switching over to nightmare.

Not running signets, more on the corruption side.

Roaming/group stuff etc.

Halp.

Chillomancer? Grenth.

Easy Grenth is easy.

I’ve thought about grenth. Perplexity just seems to do great damage though in comparison to grenth.

What are your thoughts on nightmare? Increased condi duration(I don’t have access to trailblazer yet)

Once I get trailblazer, it would change my runes dramatically since I would not need the extra condi duration from nightmare.

Not sure Lathus, my chill duration is like 88-90% increased duration depending on food with my Grenth runes and sigils on weapons. Perma chill and all the other conditions…with 29k health and 23k lifeforce I can basically watch most melt in front of me using just Staff and shroud.

Because you’ve already made it clear you’re condi, then Grenth really is the way to go. Chill has many more uses than just damage, and Perplexity still requires you to interrupt to get the most out of it.

There’s also a perma chill power based option that puts Runes of Ice to good use. For Power or Condi, 100% Chill duration will get you theoretical perma chill with just Sigil of Ice and Chilling Nova. That would be preferable to anything Perplexity could give you.

Nightmare is a different option, especially if you’re got the condition diversity to take advantage of it (which you should) and would likely be better than Grenth if you’re going for a Terror/Chill style (especially with Trailblazer).

Nightmare….because imo chill isnt the only condition you need to win. Night mare will increase duration of ALL your conditions and has a defensive feature that Will protect from theives in particular cause the fear on hit. Perplexity is a solid rune and stacking on confusion is just as deadly. Confusion with terror, deathly chill, dhuumfiere maybe? Lol
