Why do we have a passive that literally does -nothing- with Zen/Berserk?


Recommended Posts

Juyo Mastery: Your burn effects are 2% more likely to critically hit per stack of Juyo Form.

Zen gives 100% crit, with a few alacrity, 30 pre channeled center stacks, 6 piece set, you get to use plenty of zen in combat... every time you do, this passive is just a wasted slot.

 

Can we get anything else in exchange? What about 2% critical damage!?

Crit Burns do more damage...the buff from Juyo doesn't make them always crit...Zen will make the next 6 burns crit guaranteed and also heals every one in your group. Hardly a wasted slot

Yeah, we have way more DoT ticks than the 6 that benefit from each use of Zen/Berserk. Only about a quarter of our ticks are auto-crits so the extra 12% accounts for a significant part of our DPS.

 

Plus it was important in our selfheals when we still had one. 18%/12% bonus was a lot.

Zen uptime is nowhere near 100% in PvP or Ops. So the crit boost is not "wasted", but you can argue it is rather lackluster.

Agreed, maybe if they change it for a equivalent damage increase but in another way; simply damage % boost, or more crit damage than just 2%*, so it increases the burst on pvp since anihilation can't burst a good healer not even in his best day (i think), or not fast enough until its (healer's) group kill everyone.

 

*how much crit % is equivalent to crit damage %, on average terms?
