Switch.4892 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 I've been away from the game for a some time now and looking to get back into playing a more supportive role in sPvP. I haven't been keeping up with all the changes but the last time i checked Firebrand was the only viable option. Has anything changed or is it still "Go Firebrand or go home"?

Gamble.4580 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Staff support tempest is probably the best support for ranked and unranked. Fb support great for a duo if u have a good rev or 1v1er who focus sides and u carry team fights. But for solo queuing I would defo got staff ele.

I was actually leaning towards the standard dagger-focus tempest as I have a little bit of experience playing it but I'll give staff a shot.

Alin.2468 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Staff tempest is slow. By the time you cast a big spell, you're dead. This is power creep meta: It's kill or be killed. Simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamble.4580 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Cast a big spell? Apart from blasting your water it is not played the same as zerker staff. It offers great map control best Rez that carry even gold vs plats great cc amazing condi removal for team and it can do all this off point on a nine port sport. It shines in this meta. But it’s just my advice but I defo would take it over a support fb in ranked. In AT prob fb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan.9387 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Depends on the comp but pure support fb and support df tempest are about the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falan.1839 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 FB is still pretty much unrivalled in its combination of heal, boons, cleanse and survivability. Staff Tempest has huge res cheese potential when using the right traits/skills (Gylph of Renewal, Arcane Resurrection), but it's very vulnerable.
