This is the cleric’s AoE soul. It does AoE extremely well and does a ridiculous amount of burst AoE damage as well. This soul centers around detonating and spreading Tyranny of Death and maintaining dots.
spec-
http://rift.magelo.com/en/soultree#n8hM/EkkGa5akB4/U8Points can be moved between Ravaging Darkness, Dark Passage, Maelstrom, Dark Harbor, Sigil of Spirits, and the reflects, depending what utility you need.
Buffs
Armor of Devotion
Seeping Death - always apply to the tank
Rage Blight
Blighted Greed - apply to the defiler or the tank if you don’t have one.
Dark Harbor – (optional)
Obliterate – ST ONLY
Macros:
I only use 1 macro for this soul for ST DPS. If you want to you can make a macro for AoE but I’d recommend against it.
#show Shadow’s Touch
cast Sign of Asias
cast Disintegration
cast Well of souls
cast Shadow’s Touch
cast Bound Fate
Ok I lied but this next macro isn’t a big deal I only use this so I can use my port if I’m casting something and need to move out of *insert name of poop here*
#show Dark Passage
stopcasting
cast Dark Passage
Utility Abilities:
- Esoteric Estimations- channeled mana regen
- Reversal of Fortune- mainly for PVP but you never know it could end up being used in later raids/bosses
- Mass Reversal- full raid version of Reversal of Fortune
- Ravaging Darkness- mana regen, use in ST as well for 15% mana on ST or up to 24% mana in AoE
- Maelstorm- AoE pull to target, only useful if the tank used his pull already or if you are solo
- Dark Passage- 15m teleport on a 20s CD, also works as a CC breaker handy for fights that have poop you need to move out of (all of them)
- Dark Harbor- small resist buff, IMO not worth the point.
- Sigil of Woe- AoE purge
- Howling death- Silence/interrupt prevention
- Sigil of Binding- AoE snare
- Sigil of Secrecy- AoE interrupt+silence
- Sigil of Ruin- AoE stun
- Sigil of Catastrophe- all sigils in one!
- Purge- self explanitory
AoE Rotation
This is the main point of Cab as it is our AoE soul.
Sign of Asias -> Tyranny of Death -> Bound Fate (spread) -> Disintegration -> Tyranny of Death -> Well of Souls -> Curse of Anarchy -> Curse of Solitude -> Bound Fate until Tyranny explodes
Single-Target Rotation
For single target you will mainly be spamming the macro and keeping our dots up.
Opener:
Sign of Asias -> Curse of Discord -> Dark Water-> Tyranny of Death-> Dark Water-> Vex-> Dark Water-> Spam macrox1-> Tyranny of Death -> Spam macro refreshing Tyranny and dots as needed.
Note on Dark water dot: Unlike other dots it has a travel time so you need to refresh it BEFORE it drops, it is a DPS loss to let it drop and reapply all 3 stacks of it.
Note on other dots: unlike the Dark Water dot the other dots in this spec (like all specs) should be reapplied AFTER they drop as every Dot
For two enemies, maintain Curse of Discord on the main target and Curse of Solitude on the other. If there are 3 or more enemies you will do more damage even to the main target with the AoE rotation.
