Is there a stacking issue with these? I notice some big red text on my ranger last night but the spam was too fast for me to really see it., If so, what spire do rangers use when grouped with a zerker?
Correct @Kinadafz, there is a stacking issue with ranger third spire and berserker aura. below are the spell descriptions: Third Spire of the Pathfinders IV: 6: Decrease Hit Damage Taken by 5% 7: Increase Critical Hit Damage by 25% of Base Damage 8: Absorb Melee Damage: 5%, Total: 250000 9: Increase Critical Nuke Damage by 40% of Base Damage Bloodlust Aura: **Effect 7: Increase Critical Hit Damage by 30% of Base Damage the stacking conflict comes from base critical hit damage mod even though the ranger one provides more utility, especially for hybrids/other damage casters. While playing with a berserker you have a few choices, first, second or third spire. First Spire of the Pathfinders IV 1: Increase Spell Damage by 66% (Before DoT Crit, After Nuke Crit) 2: Increase Worn Proc Rate by 35% 3: Cast: First Spire of the Pathfinders Recourse First Spire of the Pathfinders Recourse 1: Decrease Spell and Bash Hate by 50% 4: Limit Max Duration: 0s 5: Limit Max Casting Time: 0s 6: Limit Min Level: 255 Second Spire of the Pathfinders IV 10: Increase Hit Damage Bonus by 67 Third Spire of the Pathfinders IV: 6: Decrease Hit Damage Taken by 5% 7: Increase Critical Hit Damage by 25% of Base Damage 8: Absorb Melee Damage: 5%, Total: 250000 9: Increase Critical Nuke Damage by 40% of Base Damage So as you can out of all of our various spires, Second spire is the weakest and therefore we will not use it. Thus the choice comes down to first/third spire. I personally use a series of socials and use Third spire, I am not in-game at the moment, but I can come back and edit this later if you would like those socials for your own use; however, it does require paying more attention than the alternative, and you will have to run out of the berserker's aura range and then run back in third spire has ended in order to get his aura again. If you want the easy alternative option then simply use First spire of the pathfinders and call it a day. PS: And obviously you will always want to use third spire if you do not have a berserker in your group Hope this helps!
