NO

the question should be what can replace ether nightmare

because if you ahve max sunspear rank cry of pain causes -5 degen, and ether nighmare causes -6 for the first 6 ranks of allegiance

cry of pain is better than ether nightmare in each and every perspective now imo (of course cryway is dead, but we are talking about A/ME)

first of all, radiaion field is better than lod

second, if you dont want to have more degen than max, radiation field is better than ether nightmare as radiation field is -4 degen nearly permanently (20 sec disease) and -6 for 5 seconds

as long as you have sprit of failure in your bar, I dont think anyone should bring ether nightmare with them anymore

Now that CoP has built in Ether Nightmare, I see it as a buff. At least all those pug members have a chance to cause 50 damage on their Arcane'd CoP instead of the usual 2 times zero damage. And you don't need to bring Ether Nightmare.

Which means you could bring an extra snare, because they'll be running from RoJ.

You see nerfs... I see buffs....

It's only really been nerfed for Team usage, as an individual skill it's not that bad, at R10 anyway, with Shadowforms 33% Damage Reduction and all...

Imo just group terrorwebs and keepers and kil them all with degen as there are 18 terrorwebs total, and this is a prety big chance of an ecto

COp + ether is waaaay better then ether + radiation, especially for killing grasping who are IMMUNE to disease. Also, the fact that the degen stacks to over 10 makes it better against aataxes who have natural +6 regen.

The way I see it, the update to CoP nerfed cryway but didn't affect A/Me farming as much. If u think about it, CoP now does more damage, just not all at once. 5 degen for 10 secs is equal to 100 dmg. The -33% dmg from sf doesn't affect that. So bring spirit of failure, forget about ether nightmare, and now u have a new pve only skill slot.

considering that graspings died nearly two times faster than aatxes, what we focus on shouldnt be graspings
