I always drop ToF and then switch target, pummel away until ToF is back up, drop it again, switch target and go all the way around the mob like this until they're all either feared or dead.
I don't use it for every minion, the rest of my attacks debuff them enogh i feel, but when i come agaist a boss or AV i start to spam it in my attack chain whenever it is charged. The reel reason I have it is for PvP, so little fear protection in the game that it tends to hit quite well and can provide breathing time in a 1 on 1 if your end drops low, i just sit back a few and spam nothing but that while it builds back up.
Fear is not often resisted, so it works on most bosses and AV's, as well as on most foes in PvP. Also, the ToHit debuff of ToF is great, I think with sufficient slotting you can floor enemy's accuracy with it. It's great for tough targets.
Though to be honest there is no target tough enough to need it if you are DM/Regen. Except some elite bosses, who will probably kill you in the time it takes to apply enough ToFs to affect them
Well I got it, I'm using it and I love it.
The recharge is fine as it is, the durations good and the end cost is perfectly reasonable. So I'm gonna three slot it with ACC debuff and use it to paralyse Boss's abilities to hit, as Max suggested. Never thought I'd enjoy melee charactrs.
Quick question for the expert scrappers,
A lot of people seem to like touch of fear, from what I'm reading on the boards. As an Ex-troller who used fear it seems to a bit wrong to use it on a melee type.
When I saw I could have it, I was thinking it'd be good for stopping the attacks from one guy while I killed his friends, but the way people have been talking about it on these boards they seem to use it on a target then hit him.
Doesn't that make the fear a bit redundant, coz they're gonna hit you back? Or is it the -ACC debuff that makes it so appealing?
