Rad Armor - Radiation Therapy

[WuTang]

Hmmm

 

Looking at this I'm not sure it's worth picking up any more. Mine didn't need any more sustain. To avoid a respec I might just throw 5-pieces of ToN and a +5 End Mod I/O and see what it does.

 

Anyone got any better ideas?

See:

Also; I suspect that it's not going to stay as-is for too long.
They were trialling another change to RT on test a few weeks back; but it's been put on-hold until the next balance pass.

Although it does have a regen buff, Radiation Therapy is primarily a heal and endurance recovery power (it heals and restores endurance for each target hit). It also debuffs foe regen. It used to work well for %dmg procs but they changed it to Adaptive Recharge, which hurt proc chances. I currently have it slotted with 4x Touch of the Nictus (including the %dmg proc) plus 2 more %dmg procs, but I need to do more testing on the proc rate.

 

Note, the in-game description is currently incorrect and is showing Particle Shielding's description.

I ran an ITF last night and tested it, it never proc'd damage once. So between missions I reslotted it with a full set of ToN and IMO the heal is not needed and the +regen wasn't noticeable. The build already didn't need the heal as RT was proc'd for damage and MA is the secondary which really needs an additional AOE now, so I've spec'd into Soul Mastery and picked up Dark Oblit. But now the question is....do I drop Eagles Claw for a proc'd out Gloom?

OK been doing some solo testing and....

 

Solo the heal from RT is decent. Once every ~26 seconds you can completely refill your HP with a big group on you and I was getting ~600 HP back on a single target with a recharge of only ~11 seconds. So actually for solo play, IMO, the heal isn't bad, but still not needed for my build. It took the +4 Romans minutes to take me down where I needed to heal and that's without me attacking or using any shields.
