Fleshcraft can be interrupted when you take damage. Fleshcrash gets NOTHING if the full channel doesn't happen but will still start the 2 minute CD even if you get NOTHING from it.
The "empowered" version requires you being next to certain types of mobs to give you a whole 2 minute buff:
- beasts give 2% primary stat
- humanoids which is what players are is 2% mastery,
- aberration is 5% armor,
- undead gives a buff where you heal 2% of your max HP when you kill something,
- demons 5% stam,
- elemental 2% magic damage done,
- dragonkin 2% crit strike,
- mechanical reduce magic damage by 5%,
- giant incrase your size by 10% and increases physical damage done by 5%
AND you have to pick Plague Deviser Marileth as your soulbind which is utter garbage for nearly every spec that uses Necrolord as their covenant OR you be in 2 of the 8 dungeons (as in only works INSIDE the dungeon not out in the world or in a raid). Fleshcraft already had a 2 minute CD compared to the other covenant's abilities:
- summon steward (5 minutes you get 3 free health potions that also remove all debuffs except magic ones),
- soulshape (increased movement by 50% and you can blink 4 dimes with only a 90 second CD),
- and door of shadows (1 minute CD where you can teleport anywhere and depending on the soulbind you pick it will either stun everyone in the area where you teleport to, increase your movement speed by 40%,, give you 2 charges that can be used back to back, remove roots and snares. or give you a shield for 15% of your HP).
Hell just going off the door of shadows with draven means you get 30% worth of shield every 2 minutes which is MORE than the current version of Fleshcraft. I'm like @
Drish and I'm assuming most Necrolords are too and don't even bother with Fleshcraft unless its for arena opening or in the 2 dungeons that allow empowerment of the Fleshcraft. But yes, OMFG Fleshcraft is so OP with the PTR version and now everyone will have to switch to Necrolord to be competitive. So sad that 95% of the druid players will have to not pick Night Fae and now everyone has to go with Necrolord just to fit in with the "right" covenant.
