Good Mire/Eclipse uptime without Hasten?
Quote:
Spiritual Alpha is a viable alternative, provided you never exemplar below level 45. It has its benefits, though. You can forget to activate hasten. Or be trapped in a form long enough to lose hasten's effects. This can lead to a lapse in Eclipse. Using Spiritual Alpha is pretty much the same as relying on global bonuses entirely. Outside of exemplaring, those never fail. You also won't have to deal with the endurance crash of Hasten, but I don't know if that's a big deal because you always have Stygian Circle.
Dechs' MFing Warshade guide says you need 234% for perma Eclipse, which is 95% from enhancements and a further 139% in bonuses. Do I not know what I'm talking about (likely ) or is Alpha Spiritual a way to drop Hasten from a build and still achieve perma (or really-close-to-perma) Eclipse?

I picked up my hasten at level 8. I know I can exemplar to level 33 and still have my perma eclipse. I think that's pretty nice.
*Nitpick: When using the possessive of a proper noun that ends in s, the apostrophe is placed after the noun. Dechs becomes Dechs' and not Dech's. It'd be like calling me Dech. And that's just not right.

Thanks for the fast response! I love your guide. I'm not very good with mechanics, so I really appreciate the extra set of eyes on my numbers.

What is there to nitpick? I certainly don't see a grammatical error or an edit timestamp.

Thanks again! As long as I'm not posting at 4AM I'll get the apostrophe right.

Well, of course you got it right. I'm just throwing that out there because you wouldn't believe how commonly I see it happen. I completely understand, though, I'm the one with the unusual name that ends in s because his parents wouldn't change the spelling to the more common Dex because that would mean my name would be short for Dexter.

A lot of what I've read about Warshades, particularly keeping Mires and Eclipse up, involves Hasten. I was thinking, the T4 Alpha Spiritual (45% recharge with 2/3 EDR bypass, which I'm guessing is like 30% + ~2%) and enough global bonuses (say, five 10% bonuses, 5 LotGs for 37.5%, and at least 30% more bonuses from a mix of 5%, 6.whatever%, and 7.5%) should total about 150%.
Dechs' MFing Warshade guide says you need 234% for perma Eclipse, which is 95% from enhancements and a further 139% in bonuses. Do I not know what I'm talking about (likely ) or is Alpha Spiritual a way to drop Hasten from a build and still achieve perma (or really-close-to-perma) Eclipse?
