How important is Foresight endgame?

[Remn]

Foresight is good to have but you wont miss it when it gone. (by it self foresight is not that good, most of the time I use it with other CD. )

the problem is as a PLD, you don't really have much choice for end game cross class.


last time I check ( a few month ago), Foresight mitigate around 5-8% of damage. the number prolly change by now

Well, I understand the OP is a pld, but as far as WAR goes its got a good duration and a short recast. Use it, because cumulatively it is fantastic.

For war yes, it has better(I use the term lightly)use, but for war it is not a CC skill. If you use it on PLD don't use it as a stand alone, combo it with something for that little extra boost in mitigation.

[subteraneanbird]

It amounts to a roughly 5-7% damage reduction overall. For reference, Rampart is 20% and IB is 30%. So it's small but with a short CD feel free to keep it on CD if you'd like. It does make a difference.

[melflomil]

I thought inner beast was 20% damage reduction and vengeance is 30% damage reductio?

One of the experts can correct me on this but Cd's that lowers damage taken is far better than Cd's that raises physical or magic defense

You're right, I misremembered. But yes, due to the damage formula, pure damage reduction is better than defenses.

[Synestr]

Yes IB=20% reduction, Vengeance=30%, can also get up Storms Path for another 10%...and you can pop offensive CD's while doing it to pump moar damage and get bigger self heals...lol. This PLD is enjoying playing WAR.

Definitely worth using. I stack it with Rampart or convalescence.

I use it 3 times in T9. First beak, I solo pop it right after the first heaven's fall and then pop Conva as the ghost appears so they over lap for 10ish seconds. I then stack it with Rampart for the 3rd Claw.

It makes good abilities better.

If you plan on tanking T9 any time, foresight is part of the CD rotation for Ravensbeak. If healer misses a stone skin, Foresight is usually the difference between 200hp and death.
