If you have ever gotten jealous of the Werewolf’s capabilities when it comes to poisoning their enemies and destroying them with hit after hit, the Werebear has its own thing going.
Thanks to the Rotting Lightbringer, you can utilize Pulverize to deal multiple types of damage to your enemies, which makes it perfect for attacking groups as it can clear them out quickly.
Providing you with a boost to poison damage and the ability to create puddles that poison your enemies, the Rotting Lightbringer can be a fun Unique Two-Handed Mace to use.
Rotting Lightbringer Affixes
The Rotting Lightbringer boosts the Druid’s ability to deal Poison Damage along with an increase in Willpower, a chance for Pulverize to hit twice, and Resource Cost Reduction.
- 110% Damage to Poisoned enemies (Inherent)
- 18-22% Willpower
- 406-550% Poison Damage
- 26-35% Chance for Pulverize to Hit Twice
- 26-35% Resource Cost Reduction
Rotting Lightbringer Effects
When you equip the Rotting Lightbringer, your Pulverize ability will create poisonous puddles in the area where you attack, provided there are none currently next to you.
Enemies caught in the puddles by Pulverize will be damaged, and since the Rotting Lightbringer adds bonus damage against poisoned enemies, you deal more damage.
The poison from the puddles deals damage over 7 seconds, and these have their own Overpowers, which combine different sources of damage.
Using Pulverize when you are distant from another puddle will cause the other puddles that you have created to splash near them, dealing a percentage of their total damage to enemies.
Rotting Lightbringer Uses
With Pulverize being a Core Skill for the Druid, you can utilize its attack that includes the creation of puddles to damage enemies within a certain radius.
Along with this effect, you gain a large boost in Poison Damage and deal additional damage to poisoned enemies.
This makes Pulverize a useful skill due to its initial damage when cast as well as the damage over time it deals to enemies who are in the area of the puddle.
With a good way to keep your Spirit up, you can spam Pulverize until there are no more enemies left in the area and move on.
How To Get Rotting Lightbringer?
Obtaining the Rotting Lightbringer can be done in different ways, as it can drop from enemies in higher difficulties, but some Lair Bosses have a better chance of dropping it.
The following are Lair Bosses that are known to drop Rotting Lightbringer:
Verdict
Pulverize was recently an area of effect Core Skill that was decent for hitting multiple enemies in front of you, but now with its poison puddles, it has become even deadlier.
This allows you to also make use of the Neurotoxin passive skill, which will guarantee poisoned enemies are slowed, which will also count as crowd control.
Combined with other Aspects and equipment to enhance Pulverize, the Rotting Lightbringer can end up being a decent weapon for a Werebear Build.
