Putrid Decay
|
This spell is great for what it does. Now I have the Balance of Nihil slow, so for normal mobs, I don't need to debuff before hand because of the slow spell. However, I still need to debuff to get DoTs to land and this one spell replaces the malo line and the malicious decay spells because it lowers resists in both disease and poison.

In my experience there are some mobs in the game that cannot be magic slowed but infact can be slowed using disease. If my memory serves me correctly malicious decay is an unressitable disease debuffer much like malo and malo's is for magic. There for you cast Malicious Decay then Putrid Decay and last but not least Cloud of Grummus slowing these rare mobs to 40%

This may be an old post.But i'd like to add the guy above is 100% right...
There are a few mobs that cant be slowed by magical means,and this affects us shamans because Lord Ghiosk is one of them (yes,the one for our epic). I soloed him a couple of weeks ago...It took me a while,but with just the 1st disease based slow,using torpor on pet and spirit of the puma (apart from the normal hastes and stuff u'll probably buff your pets with) i took him down with just wasting a 40% or less of my mana.
Of course,i cannibalized a few times,but not much.
Good luck.

Used this spell instead of malos resisted very often. Thought spell would be great debuffer for posion and disease dots while freeing up a slot for another spell. Well, I thought wrong. Will really never use.
I just did the turn in and got this spell, the description on the spell says "Surrounds your target with a foul cloud of plague, slowing their attack rate for 14:00", and it as the diseased hand icon when scribed.

Yea i agree that's what it says, may have been intended as a new slow, but it's not. I tried it, it makes the targets skin slimy, and transluscent. It did not slow what so ever, just lowered disease, and poison resists.
I casted this on a mob and then Malicious Decay. M. Decay did not take hold.
This is not a slow, even though the in-game spell description says so and that it's listed as a slow in the context menus.
This adds utility to soloing. Use it to help with VP and use all your non-DD DoTs like Breath of Ultor, Blood of Saryrn, and Breath of Wunshi.

Hope this one ends up being a real upgrade to the disease line of slow maybe something to make it equal to turgors would be cool to have options as a shammy just my opinion I guess

Got the Putrid Decay spell today. I haven't tried it out, but the description after I memmed it read that it slows the target by 50% for 14 minutes.
It's a disease, and poison resist debuff, not a slow. Spell description says it's a slow, but i tried it, it makes the targets skin slimy, and transluscent. Did not slow, just lowered resists for disease, and poison.

I hope it stacks with Malos and Malicious Decay! Would be an uber combination to land on big mobs & you can pick & choose with lesser mobs depending on your follow up spells.
Land: Insidious Decay (unresistable)= svd -55
Land: Putrid Decay (svp @ -255)= svd -110, svp -55
Land: Malos (unresistable)= svd -110, svp -110 svc -55, svf -55, svm -55
Land: Insidious Decay (unresistable)= svd -55
Land: Putrid Decay (svp @ -255)= svd -110, svp -55
Land: Malos (unresistable)= svd -110, svp -110 svc -55, svf -55, svm -55

It wouldnt stack with Insidious decay just as Malosini doesnt stack with Malo(s). They are of the same line...although the poision effect will stack since its two different buffs. And to the top post, shamans do get a 75% dis slow thanks to GoD, although its a pain to get.

What disease slow are you talking about? Balance of the Nihil like all slows adds disease counters, but this is a check to magic slow. Unless there is another slow out there?
