Does anyone ever use the wolfen or the raven blessing?
Peeps seem to only use ursan
But i find the raven blessing can be helpful for mass blindings
Just wanted to know cus i have never seen a peep do it before.

Plz post ur comments

Ursan = Brute Force = Win and = Nerf.

Rothan Celt · Apr 04, 2008, 05:09 PM // 17:09

that sums up the future of the ursan but u did not answer my question

We'll see how long it takes this thread to reach the bottom. I've never really seen anyone admit to using Ursan; we'll see who admits to using Raven/Wolfen.

Raven can be pretty handy with the crippling & ranged attack.

Or so I've heard

not another ursan bashing thread.... its funny now much attention this issue has gotten.... when no one cares if something is overpowered in pve as long as it helps the general consensus.

Jetdoc · Apr 04, 2008, 05:18 PM // 17:18

Not really. I've used Raven Blessing once or twice to have a chuckle, but for the most part those skills pale in comparison to Ursan.

Snograt · Apr 04, 2008, 05:20 PM // 17:20

I think that's the problem: There's nowhere that you could use Raven or Volfen that Ursan wouldn't do better.

Barbie · Apr 04, 2008, 05:23 PM // 17:23

I use Volfen blessing when I want to have fun... and Ursan when I want to bash things (I still have fun when I'm using Ursan though ^^)

Necro Death · Apr 04, 2008, 05:41 PM // 17:41

I use raven alot in certain areas that my necro is not suited for, its the only one i use tho.

Painbringer · Apr 04, 2008, 05:43 PM // 17:43

Only if I have to do to a mission or quest that requires it. I am fresh out of Chimpanzees to ursan button push for me. And I am above waisting my time doing it myself

He kinda did. Sadly Ursan is the only one of the 3 blessings worth the elite slot because like Snograt said Ursan does better than them in most if not all areas. And the problem is if they buffed Raven and Volfen we would get a replay of whats happened with Ursan.

N1ghtstalker · Apr 04, 2008, 06:03 PM // 18:03

once in our DoA fullrun there was one Raven guy
he did good damage but well... the fact he had less armor meant more healing for me to do
(yes i was healer)

emberlights · Apr 04, 2008, 06:29 PM // 18:29

I use, but not often, Volfen's bloodlust combined with lots of minions, barbs and orders. O.o

Numa Pompilius · Apr 04, 2008, 06:44 PM // 18:44

None of them have AoE knockdown, so none of them have the damage mitigation of Ursan.
That said, I used Raven when farming Norn points outside Olafstead: that's the one place I've found where spreading blind and not being knocked down > AoE knockdown.

N1ghtstalker · Apr 04, 2008, 06:45 PM // 18:45

ursan shout + minions = win

FTW!!!
I do the same when I have at least 2 mm's with me

xPIMPx · Apr 04, 2008, 06:58 PM // 18:58

Used raven and wolfen once, then never again.

MisterT69 · Apr 04, 2008, 07:01 PM // 19:01

First of all, there won't be an ursan nerf, so stop QQ'ing. Secondly, I use Volfen, yes its pronounced VOLFEN, not wolfen, when doing HM dungeons and such. My 33% IAS + UB= UBER DMG. I find that bringing a raven with also works quite well.

Albert Algorn · Apr 04, 2008, 07:05 PM // 19:05

I also have used raven and volfen once, but only when I had to. No plans to use them ever again. As for Ursan never have used it... it will probably be nerfed by the time I get around to it.

Lady S Shiva · Apr 04, 2008, 07:17 PM // 19:17

raven is not bad at all, does pretty good aoe damage and blinding
