Is AoG (Avatar of Grenth) still worth it to use in RA? or not anymore because of the recent dervish update?

Killed u man · Apr 05, 2011, 01:26 PM // 13:26

Yes, it is still one of the best options.

If you go Derv, either go AoG or AoB.

chullster · Apr 05, 2011, 02:19 PM // 14:19

Yes, even after the nerf.

Being able to hit through empathy or insidious is reason enough alone, let alone the cripple spam, condtion transfer, blocking........

list is too long.

Just, yes.

Can't you just look at the skill and determine whether it's useful or not? The 'nerf' to it was completely useless.

Thanks for the help! Altough I got some other questions:

1) When someone else gains an unique kill, do you get 40 faction too then?

2) GWwiki says to unlock koss and some other hero's are free to buy from a priest of balthazar after completing the training grounds mission. I was able to buy them without doing that mission, can someone explain this

By "buying" them with Balthazar Factions, you simply unlock them in PvP. As of now, no PvP format supports heroes so you just wasted your faction

. The mission allows you access to the heroes for PvE.

The faction gain goes to everyone in your party, regardless of who got the kill or even whether you are within party range.

Either is a good choice ATM considering all the scrubs that play blindbot and anti melée hex spam are playing dervs right now, but I would say AoB for the extra armor and plus the burning is more dmg than the life stealing

The armor isn't useful 99% of the time. Barely anyone uses physical damage anymore.

More for being able to spam with impunity.

Simply put, armour is always useful. Let's not forget Disciple runes on monks, shield sets and Sentinels for warriors. Armour will always mitigate damage even if it's not physical.

AoG has better survivability, but people will call you a 2011 123-player.
All you need is to use Lyssa's correctly and tear down like a boss

I was referring to the +armor vs physical from Avatar of Balthazar. Obviously +armor is always useful, +armor vs physical only however is pretty much useless in PvP at this point in time.
