Not impressed.   
Mass-CLW as a SLA. ok,
SoundBurst. Weak sauce.

Piercing Spellcraft: A Spell Penetration bonus that does not stack with Piercing Spellcraft from the Magister Epic Destiny Now that would have been nice.

Overall PHFFF!


Really who gives a flying fuck if it does?  Epic Drow are not that god damned hard to break.

Ahh that's why the confusion.
Since I have no desire to spend 10 hours to update Lama and fail character copy, didn't check that out yet.
So is it lower or higher than spell ?
Pretty sure my heightened Soundburst spell matches BB or Sunburst and stuff.
Anyway that cooldown sucks.


I was referring to the SLA, not the regular spell. The SLA's DC is the same as the spell, except you substitute spell level (9 when heightened) with character level (28 at cap). This gives a 19 higher DC for the SLA compared to normal spells. The Sunburst SLA and Divine Wrath from the same ED have the same DC calculation.

The bonus HP and addition of Renewal to Unyielding is nice as I'm running this on my pal to get divine ETRs. 
Taking renewal from Exalted and making wings cost is disappointing.  The new SLA hopefully make it more useful for casters in off destiny.

I actually think the Mass CLW is a great SLA.


Care to tell us why?

Have not renewal always required u to be in right ED (ie EA now) to self target?


Yeah, but I usually run in EA. Not planning to run in Unyielding.

By moving it to another ED and keeping that requirement was a bit annoying.

Now that is becoming very interesting.  How long do you think that will last though.... Undecided

It is probably on purpose.  Since nearly all other Destiny abilities use a similar calculation.

It'll be a cheap (sp-wise) cure spell for mass healing. What's not to like?

If the healers have a lot of positive spell power and the party members have a lot of healing amp, it will be great especially considering SLAs are CHEAP (I said that already, right?) and they're affected by metas.

I'm looking forward to it.

A meta'd CLW SLA will be nice.  Would have preferred a higher cure, but take what we can get.

Doesn't command make enemies helpless now?  What's not to like about it as an SLA?

Right you are.

I like Mass CLW, but the ED isn't strong enough for me to switch my druid into it.

It's close now though, If they'd change the judgement chain to work on all evil enemies then it'd be well done imo.

Lamannia is back up. Cooldown is currently 7 seconds on tier 3, meaning mobs can almost be perma-stunned.

DC is based on Evocation?
Can be Heightened, Maximized, Empowered?

Just tested. DC is not improved by evocation :/. Bit surprised about that. This may kill the appeal for me.

Yes on maximize and empower. As for heighten, DC is based on character level.

No evocation dc means it will be shit, even with +30 dc when level cap is raised...  Undecided

Previous Lama build, it was 15 SP, moderately cheap, and a 6s CD.

Current Lama build, it's now 35 SP, not nearly so cheap, and 9s CD.

Argh!  That sucks.  Considering the save is Fort, the most over-inflated one, not benefitting from Evoc boosts just took down the utility a big notch.  If it wasn't going to benefit from school boosts anyway, they could have left us having an Enchantment spell like Greater Command, which at least attack a save not so bloated.

Going to finish my completionist and make it a 20 Druid.  70 potential wisdom.

Soundburst DC: 10 +28 char level +30 wisdom= 68

With mantle and autumnal debuffs:
74 dc soundburst
71 dc evocation (helpless mobs have 0 dex so will have variable increases after soundburst)
79 dc mass frog every 45 seconds

I may drop the frog and gain 8 evocation.

I think I would have preferred the MCLW SLA. Mostly for the lower cooldown.

Agreed. SP efficiency was much better for MCLW too.

People complained MCLW is too weak, guess turbine listened to feedback (and "upgraded" in their own, special way, lol)
