Runes of Magic US / AU

r/d gets a 10% pdef reduction as well as a 20% attack and casting speed reduction
r/p gets a movement speed reduction as well as an attack speed(casting?) reduction

Not that it does much, but Warlocks have Saces' Cracking Spell.Also, don't forget about siege titles that help and are not necessarily class specific.

also, don't all champs and x/c get a pdef reducing skill that can be stacked?

Champions get Heavy Bash, reduces pdef/pattack by 6% (with all 3 stacks)
Knights have disarmament, which stacks higher and goes to 12% with 4 stacks.
Druids have their weakening/withering seeds.
Rogue/champs have traps that reduce defenses.
However a lot of these things do not stack. and will override.

dont for get siege titles:

FT, SA for both groups
tac smash and midnight ritual

surge of awareness
EoM from m/p
the s/m has an "amp + EoM" type buff for party when use combo shot for 10secs

...just to name a few...

edit to OP: the s/wd debuff cuased by snipe is 10% for 10secs at lvl 50

If you're looking specifically for debuffs...

Warriors, Wardens, Champions, warlocks and Rogues

w/r -- splitting chop, 12% pdef reduction
w/k -- 2 different crit resist debuffs

Warlock (general) -- weakened increases 3% dark damage recieved
warlock/m -- sace's crackling spell, large crit resist debuff
-- Soul Brand Sting, 9% recieved fire and dark dmg per stack, stacks to 4



I think most "debuffs" used in current groups are m/wl, wl/m, k/w, and occassionally s/r. Since r/m are so powerful, it seems like most "end game" groups take r/m dps over X/Y debuff.

While my WL/R alt is not geared to be instance runner, I always found Soul Poisoned Fang elite to be surprisingly effective in increasing my DPS

Back when we first cleared Deadly we had me on Wl/M and a M/WL for boss debuffs. Keep in mind that we are a heavy magic guild with War/Mages and not as many R/M as others. So the Wl/M fire/dark damage buffs really benefited our guild. Lock general skill warp charge can do wonders on War/Mages in party as well.

When we first cleared, and even now, our beth-h groups were something along the lines of:

1 wl/m
1 m/wl
2-4 w/m
0-2 r/m
0-1 k/w
0-1 wd/w
0-3 wd/s
0-3 druids (d/w d/wd mix)
0-1 p/k
person using tactical smash, person using midnight ritual, druid using seed debuffs.

The w/m and wardens do most of the dps during burns, but the on longer fights (5th boss for example) the wl/m was usually top damage.

Now we sometimes have some m/wd, m/p and p/m as well. That mp regen is epic for wd/w....We'd also occassionally have a d/r but they have since stopped playing. We used to have 1 group tambo/lute and a second tambo/guitar, allowing the m/wl and wl/m to get their debuffs up quicker, but that happens less often since they're all lazy and don't make their own instruments.

In the case we didn't have a k/w tanking, a wd/w would tank bosses in almost full dps gear for burns. When a k/w was present, we usually had at least 1 wd/s and usually a wd/w (wd/w was dps on boss fights cuz its not only high damage output but can also lower aggro of the staff wearing w/m ).

As already stated, tactical smash and midnight ritual do indeed work together, Druid seed buffs and disarmament do not. S/r sapping arrow overrides both disarmament and druid pdef seed, but does work along the druid mdef seed.

Yes it does.

In fact, all of the following party-damage increasing abilities stack:
wd/s morale boost
c/p Suicide Advance
k/p Holy Illumination
warlock Surge of Awareness
warlock Otherworldly Whisper


While c/p and k/p may not be ideal for instances in some groups, on world bosses where there are no player limits, you can have a party consisting of 1 dps and 5 "buff" characters to make that 1 person do 5m dps

Stacking on top of these are player only damage increases, such as
warrior berserk
warrior frenzy
warden power of the oak
wd/w Feral Leader

etc etc.

Forgot about warden Item Set Skill "Dance of confusion": +3% physical dmg recieved to all targets near Oak walker. The buff lasts for 30s on the oak walker and the debuff will then last for the duration the monster/boss is near the oak walker, while the 30s buff is in effect
