Enigma or Bramble?

[luis19]

Im making a ww sin and i need to know which armor to use.
Enigma or Bramble. Bramble Gives a lot of psn dmg but ppl say enigma is also good since u dont gota walk and run as much since claw block doesnt work while running/walking

DUde!! LOL Didn't i already tell u? Use bramble!!!! Enigma Blows for wwsin... PERIOD!!!! U got the skillz, and the running... the teleport isn't needed cuz u have dflight.

Also, Enigma doesn't affect how much u run, it affects how fast you run... if u're going from the blood moor to the cold plains yer gonna be running the same distance but you'll get there faster... Unless you're time-basing yer statement.... then you don't waste time.... BUT YOUR PVP RIGHT?? Lol

If you're still not sure, do comparison to see which is better by yerself.... as you said, ppl recomend enigma and since u're considering bramble someone had to also give an opinion! Try making comparison between the two armors and seeing which one you'll need more.... (P.S. Get the stuff first, Lol)

Good Luck!!

Max venom, claw mastery,fade, weapon block ( just lvl until its 26 with skills) and put the rest on master or blade sheild

Claw block blocks while running, walking, or square dancing. If they tell you that it doesnt block when running, they are lieing and they are wrong.

Nope, I ain't lying and no, I ain't wrong-weapon block doesn't work when running or walking. Can't speak to square dancing, as I have yet to drop a point into that skill-though surely my enemies will quiver when that day comes.

All fear CottonEyedJo.

Bramble is the better option if you use venom. If you're aiming for more physical damage, enigma is your best bet.

As an seasonded Assassin PvPer, I recommend prebuffing with Bramble (casting venom with it on), then switching to Enigma. Although Bramble is good for boosting your poisen damage, Enigma offers far more mobility. Enigma offers good frw boost and teleport. You will NOT catch any good ranged chars without Enigma if they play defensive. Personally I value mobility above all, since if you dont get hit, you wont die, and if you can catch up to a defensive opponent, you can get in their face and rip them up. Dragon flight is great, but it doesnt always acyivate and its range has been nerfed significantly. Go with Enigma if where you are dueling allows it, or plan on facing skilled opponents.

I've found i prefer enigma over bramblefor these reasons

Enigma:
-FR/W
-+2 to skills which boosts ww, BO (if u use cta), i have str on base 20, i currently have 7.5 k ar with 110 in dex and 440 in vit, im lvl 83
3.2 k life

Bramble:
only advantage ive found is pois damage

the 40 fhr and 45 fr/w cancel each other out for me, as for which ever one id use, ill have 8 fhr/max/ar or fr/w/max/ar sc, depending on ther armour

i rarely use teleport

id rather use 5/5 pois facet nats armour than bramble

oh yeah, forgot, as mentioned by milky enigma enables you to have much higher life and that = good

Groovehawg: Sadly, your wrong, weapon block DOES work while running or walking, it always has the same %chance no matter what (moving/ standing)

Well in 1.09 i ran some tests of the weapon block skill and found out that it doesn't block very much at all when walking or running.

I went to Frigid highlands and up to Eldrich and his gang.
When i stood my ground and didn't move I was was indeed blocking and all seemed fair.
Then i started running/walking from side to side infront of the monsters and suddenly i started taking alot more damage as if i didn't block as much as when standing still.
I really tested this for a long time and it was no doubt i blocked alot less when walking/running.

I also made a post about this issue in this forum and people seemed very unsure of this.

If the skill has been altered since 1.09 you are probably right but until i can do some testing on the skill i'm not quite sure myself.
