I just wouldn't expect it to last very long. Basically, it will probably be a glorified Stun.

Bet it'll have a stupid long casting time to make up for it if it does happen to land on anything. The 5 minute timer doesn't mean a whole lot.

I am very interested in these spells. Spike flail or dragon breath would've been cool. Oh well. I am still excited for this.

I can see Gates of Hades becoming the new Charged Whisker.

Still wanting a nice strong physical attack. honestly would rather not be spike flail because animation is not that great, but I do want something for high physical damage.

On a side note regarding Pyric Bulwark, This is a very powerful ability full of win and overpowerednessess. I suggest it be balanced by giving it a 5 second cast time and a 5 second duration. ;)

So you want them to make it useless. Yes.


I would much prefer a Scherzo/Earthern Armor effect with a decently high duration that stacks with those two effects.

Thunderbolt is new Charged :)

Damage is a little lower but stun that comes with it let you cast it w/o recasting and debuffs/buffs after dream flower and just finish with whirl of rage. It's just faster. Can also just do thunderbolt > charged ^^

never did a charge whisker burn before, but would that work on a 5 minute timer?

Gates of Hades, Absolute Terror and Pyric Bulwark?!

...I...I need to go do my laundry after I finish this post. This is awesome, yet I'm not surprised we didn't get Spike Flail. I wonder what we would be getting from Khimaira.

Not really, the recast on Unbridled Knowledge is too long for the usual Charged Whisker burn.

I think I'm the only one not excited at all.

Edit: I liked Rick Cable Network Pie better.

It could, technically. Usually I guess it's about 3~4min. Would be a more relaxed burn I guess.

However, I just meant a quick and easy way to get rid of a whole lot of mobs, not just to "burn" for chests or anything like that. Seeing how even Charged Whisker was able to one-shot certain groups of mobs with the right buffs/gear, and I think (or hope) that an ability learned from a creature such as Cerberus named after the god of the underworld himself does more damage than some kitties charging their whiskers. Even just saying it makes me sound stupid.
