hey,
anyone tested them and can share some info? i havent bothered to train them so far (coz coils and idol are so much better) but now the rest of my AA's are full and i need to spend points somewhere...
so it's Lull, Constriction, Leviathan's Call, Forked Lightning
I use Lull and Constriction in minis when I need to focus survivability before DPS (Coils of the Serpent). Lull fully feated gives you an extra load of DPS and a minor bubble every 5 minutes aswell as removes the snare effect from it. Constriction adds a snare effect after your Cobra Stare which is helpful when you need to finish off your target or get away from it. I say try them out! They are definetly worth it.
I'm currently testing a little thoses ones, especially in a T4 perspective (Runners in General Sheng encounter). And i'm kinda disappointed.
Forked lightning is okay, considering it reduces cast time and less cast-time = more dps in our spell rotation. Charged blast is like 0.3sec cast and Lotus 0.3sec (don't remember exactly, will look at exact stats later in game).
However if you compare the DPS gain with Coils... huuu, keep Coils xD
But Constrictions sucks, really. On paper the spell could be usefull on Runners with the snare effect but the snare doesn't apply if the stun is broken or is overwrited by another stun effect (and it happens regularly in a CC-lock situation like T4 Runners). If Runner isn't stun-locked, he's obviously rooted, kb'd or snared so the snare effect is useless.
Agree with Bibik, the only useful silver perk is Lull and forked lightning, constriction would be awesome if it didn't require improved cobra stare to be useful (thus freeing 3 fp) but it does so it's poo.
Leviathan's Call just has a chance for our elemental ruin to be reappied by damage iirc which is stupid in a group situation.
Lull 4/5 it works great against some prof and save your life some times, howerver assaisn/rangers ignors it. Nice for capping flags in JS, other than that i will not perk it full out. I stop using normal EoS in pvp, cause it slows me down, and i die 90% of the times im using it. CoS is for me the only perk to use in pvp from this tree.
