I've pondered this myself. It'd be nice if things that required Silence were more than just "Bard or Bust"
Yes. I've picked up fumbled silences in my coil static.
You can be a great back-up if one of your silencers dies but I wouldn't warrant being in the actual rotation because of the 40s CD. Silent Dusk is also a lot quicker than blunt arrow so if you think it's not getting silenced, you could use it.
40s CD isn't really a problem as long as you're not the only silencer.
i've used it a couple time for backup, but if you're trying to do it in a rotation with 1 other person it won't work because of the cd
I and people in linkshells I am in have done turn 2 with 1 SCH, 1 BRD as silence rotation even in 2.0 so don't know what to tell you.
For Turn 1 ADS, every second High Voltage comes about every 30-35 seconds, so it's not quite doable. Turn 2 ADS, however, uses every second one about every 45-50 seconds. I've done used it in the past when we've been lacking silences, although sometimes she takes a tad too long because she just started casting a heal.
Every 2nd-3rd run my coil group runs into a situation where the pala flames the bard "Why did you silence - it was my turn - we gonna eat highvoltage now" situation. Never gets old and they still didnt get it why that happens.
turn2 ads cannot develop resistance to it so it doesnt matter if you hit at the same time as a brd, so go ahead and use it, occasionally it might help
Not sure I see your point. If HV was used every 30 seconds, it still wouldn't matter that Silent Dusk has a 40s cooldown if your silence rotation is 2 people.
HV #1: Silent Dusk used
HV #2: Blunt Arrow used, Silent Dusk has ~10s on cooldown still
HV #3: Silent Dusk used, Blunt Arrow is close to cooldown
etc
thank you very much to all, i was afraid to generate resistance to silence but now im more confident
I've been able to silence with Selene
First you put her on obey (you'll have to remember to manually cast her buffs)
Focus target ADS (on keyboards it's defaulted to Shift F dunno about ps3)
Then make a macro like this:
/pac "Silent Dusk" <f>
if you want a text + sound notification, put it on the next line in the macro, no wait.
This is what I do, Selene will Silence your focus, so you don't have to target ADS. You can change it up slightly if you don't want ADS to be your focus, ( I know ppl tend to focus the person they take/give the ROT to).
if its T2 key is also ur team. If the dps are enough and ure almost high-end gear u only need 2 silences at 3rd mob till u kill him ... it doesn't matter who will do that. for example if I'm doing t2 with FC mates and tank is random Im doin silence with my Fc's bard. If we got tank and bard from FC Im focusing on heals and shielding only and dont give a shit about silence. it's all matter of situation
peace
Absolutely, as long as Selene is in range she will insta silence if not casting embrace (which falls down to you keeping HP up)
