Hmm no edit button.

I meant rc+ dark of course. But thinking of going dark+supp due to nearsight.

I think the prefered template is 47RC for final bolt and 26 supp for PBT, which also gives you 45% nearsight.

Pure dark spec is great for its fast nuking, but these days range is better.

Both are respectable, but i'd say RC is slightly more respectable than Dark - i'm sticking with Supp though: If Range is King, than Nearsight is Oliver Cromwell (or atleast the Scarlet Pimpernell ;))

Might be an option to go 48 RC, 22 dark 11sup?
grey nearsight > no nearsight, 48 RC last colddebuff (dont know if yellow would be enough, might be, then 47RC is enough) and then get as much +skill to dark as you can.

It is, even the blue one gets resisted alot, but when it sticks it usally turns the tide. And I myself, is in love with darkness specc. Once you burned your uber bolt and they missed, got blocked or the target was in combat. Your left with worse damage then the dark RM imo.

If you want to get abit easier with toa go Darkcarver,decent dmg with debuffs even with minimal Toa.

But if you planning to get lot of artis i would suggest Dark+supp as you go oop veeery fast on Darkcarver

I'm 48 RC, 22 dark, 11 supp. Find it great and its even better if ur grped with dark sm or rm. The grey neasight can be nice even if its resisted alot.
My avarage dmg with debuffed dark DD's is about 400-500 and get 600 quite often. Bolts also do nice dmg and 1-2 bolting a caster is always nice =)
I was dark/supp myself once and find RC/dark way more fun. ;)

Umm .. naa... best is dark and rest in supp .. 47 dark (or more) and rest in supp is my fav. .. last DD and blue nearsight ..was best option for gank grp/solo. RC just sucked and full sup aint that good also .. blue NS does the trick.

48 RC 22 Darkness 11 Suppression.

Mastery of Focus for NS is your friend, the OOPage with the baseline nuke @ 22 focus for Darkness isn't, though.

But in NF I'd go that over full Dark anyway, unreliable bolts and PBT just doesn't cut it anymore, infact when running PBT you'd go OOP more gradually than a Darkcaver would :p

Then again, never leave TOA without 50% power as a Darkcaver in keepdefence :p

Well tbh 47 dark is in my opinion best .. pbt with supp is also a good choice.

Justification .. enemy races have ingrained natural resist to some types of damage. With all races apart from Mid eg Alb and HIb there are ONLY 1 .. highlanders that naturally resist cold.. Darkness is cold damage.

In nf i would say the best spec for a rm would either be full supp or darkcarver, having tried both specs, the 65% ns gained from the supp spec is pretty much an iwin button against other casters and archers, however this is offset by the 179 delve dd, which although has a snare component is pretty low dmg (except maybe on stealthers). The true dmg spec is darkcarver, at present my rm is specced 48rc/24d purely for the cold debuff. The aoe dd, gtae and bolts are all nice to have but the main reason to play this spec is the debuff (unless you want to camp a tower and leech rps..).

I must admit im il loove with my RC7supp spec.. Yes bolts can be blocked and so on, but the AE and PBAoE spells are just too good to be true in keepdefence/attacks. and a nice bolt, bolt, DD, Root, sit and rest, Bolt Bolt line works for me :)

Happy new year all

I like 40 dark/36 rc :)

It's not rly worth it tbh :(


But in any case, 47dark or so + supp is best for RvR, I guess you want 10sec pbt for some pve. But with 47RC you wont have any real dmg dealing, exept bolts, baseline energy nukes will do around 200 damage, whilts you can reach a lot more with the spec nuke or the debuff + base nuke.
