Decapitate vs Eviscerate

Used to use Evic on my PvP Warrior

Now i use Decapitate it does more damage and deep wounds longer but takes all you adren and energy

Tell which you use or if you use anything better

for PvP, its simple. If you want a strong spike, use decapitate. If you plan to do more than that (which you should IMO) go with eviscerate

Decapitate is good for one thing: killing someone close to death.

If you use it on someone who won't die from it, it is wasted. You now have no energy, no adrenaline, your target will be healed... wasted.

For every other purpose I would bring Eviscerate. The fact that deep wound takes effect the next time they take damage, you can spike with it. Use an adrenal attack and it combines with the 20% and your target dies before the monk can see. It is much more repeatable too, and you still have energy for more Shocks, Sprints, or adrenal skills. You can kill someone, and 5 seconds later be repeating your spike on someone else.

Decapitate has its uses, and with a -energy and +energy weapon swaps you can lessen the negatives of it slightly, but for most things I still prefer Eviscerate.

Decapitate...nice too...but nice only in certain situations.
Fewer situations I"m finding now than Eviscerate regarding over all pve use.
My vote's fer Eviscerate over Decapite...so far.
Course...i'm hoping to see that someone else has discovered a good way to mange this new skill.
And yeah...night fall skils do rock

Maybe.

The prob with 1/2 swing is that after you use it, it takes a bit longer for the next swing. Try out a 2 man War/War spike or War/mes spike on a dummy

well, the fact that decapitate is a finisher is only strenthened by the fact that a decapitation is not something a normal human will survive :P

Yeah, I mean if you're decapitated you have to die, right?

But oh wait, if the guy has mending on it might not work, because mending makes you invincible. Remember that guys, mending > *. Except maybe healing breeze, which is like, 6 whole pips of regen. Wow man.

And zealous renewal is awesome because it gives you energy after 20 whole seconds! It's just like mantra of recall, so it must be l33t! I mean, you never need energy right after you use Decapitate, right?

Look at all the builds with mending and healing breeze. There must be some reason for it. The skills have to be l33t, or else no one would use them.

Explain to me why mending isn't worth -1 energy regeneration. The policy on this board is that if you're going to tell me something doesn't work, you have to tell me why. So go ahead, give it a shot.

And no, it's not just on farming or running builds. It's in a lot of uber tanking builds too, and those are supposedly godly in PvE. I mean, nothing can kill them. Dolyak Sig, Endure Pain, Gladiator's Defense, Mending, Healing Breeze ... wow. Sure, they can't really kill anything, but they'll never die, and that's pretty cool.

And seriously, what is wrong with mending? You're not really using the energy anyway. All of your skills are adrenaline-based. That one pip of energy doesn't even hurt you. And think about it, if you can get 3 pips of regen, that's 6 health per second. A typical mission lasts ... what? About 30 minutes, or 1800 seconds, so mending could potentially heal you for 10800 health! That's a lot for 1 pip of energy that you don't even need.
