Hallo. This afternoon I attempted Layer 8 Twisting Corridors in Discipline spec (with an unfortunate failure due to a lack of foresight and bad RNG). I got to try out a lot of the new Anima Powers, and I would like to say first and foremost a big thank you.
The Power that damages Feared foes with 5% damage of your health is superb, and a big recommendation from me. I tried going for a build focused around that Power: Masks of Sheer Terror that upped the damage able to be taken before Fear broke, Power that increased the duration of the Fear, and “tankier” Powers such as Life Barrier and Reflective Shield to handle any hits I took between Fears.
I feel that had I picked the health powers when I got them from random Cells and not relied on praying for vendor buyouts, the run would have been successful.
The Power that grants Power Infusion at a 10% chance each time you used Smite seemed somewhat noticeable, and probably procced Power Infusion many, many times (could not track any of it since Details is yet to be updated for 9.0.5). As Discipline it did not feel exemplary, but it might if Shadow has its own equivalent.
I also noticed a Power named Voidwraith Signet which promised to grant a tentacle Mind Flaying foes below 50% Health. It sounds like a good Power for a boss or elite, but not so much for trash.
While of course, outside of these Powers Priest still feels a bit underwhelming, if sturdy, that is of course the case with any specialization and class in Torghast. The new Powers are definitely an improvement, though.
