Advice on onslaught

The abilities say reduces shock bleed incinerate potency by 150%. Doesn't that mean onslaught is immune to them
Might be dumb question but whats benefit of the 150% reduced potency instead of him just being immune to shock bleed incinerate?

    Would it work on caltrops and biohazard nodes?

    In general yes. Just have to watch out for increased potency nodes, masteries, and champs that can increase potency on their own.

    He’s one of the best for those nodes 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 free healing all round. The only champ I ever had trouble with for bleed potencies is a Chee with a big healthpool cos she can inflict bleed through block and gets 15% bleed potency per spirit charge which can then start onslaught taking damage if they throw a lot of sp1s. Try not to parry a chee!

    Same thing happens with Gorr he gets 25% extra debuff potency for each point in wp

    As noted, the fact he carries the debuffs means that in most content, he can benefit from Willpower.

    However, in PvP content, those bleed/shock/Incinerate debuffs can also be disadvantageous when interacting with other Masteries (Despair, Inequity), nodes (e.g. reduced ability accuracy per debuff) or champions who punish debuffs (primarily Void).

    I don’t want to make a new thread so just adding to this

    but I am not able to reparry onslaught

    I used to do that before but he isn’t stunned reparried 7-8/10 times but is getting parried 2-3 times

    anyone else facing this issue?

    I find it tricky to get intervals for heavy when they're aren't stunned to pause neuroshock. Anyone got any tips when fighting as onslaught to use heavy when they NOT stunned?

    In non PvP fights like questing (anything that doesn't have the limber mastery on the defender), you can parry light light heavy and that'll get you the extended pause.
