T20 2 piece question

[danissketch]

When you have both frozen orb and ebonbolt up , do you guys cast ebonbolt during frozen orb and shatter it, risking fof munch but getting the t20 crit bonus on it or cast ebonbolt before/after frozen orb?

Edit: t20 2 piece bonus being the higher crit damage during frozen orb

if given that scenario, i'd launch the orb and immediately fire off the EB. odds of getting more than 1 FoF before you're done with the EB->FL-> IL chain seems low.

If you are far enough from target you can do ebonbolt>FO>flurry>lance and most likely not munch anything.
FO travels rather slow as well.Needs really 40y distance tho.

Try to avoid casting FO at large distances, because it will often reach it's 40 yd max range and disappear, even before it has dealt full damage. (It continues moving slowly after reaching a target, and if that movement takes it to max range from where you cast it, it'll despawn.) Also, your ebonbolt probably isn't shattering because you're waiting a global between ebonbolt and flurry. The way I play it, if ebonbolt comes up during frozen orb, and I ever get myself down to 0 FoF charges, I'll cast Ebonbolt->flurry->IL. This is more to me about not overcapping FoF than it is about not wasting a FoF. Obviously not ideal if the ebonbolt won't land until after the crit damage bonus is gone. In general, it's okay to munch a FoF for ebonbolt if you would have to significantly delay ebonbolt otherwise. With T21, flurry is a very hardhitting ability that we want as many uses of as possible.

Didn't have orbs that went through the target except in buggy sutuations like intermission phases on Garothi.
Also...i didn't test it out in game yet (will do it today) but with ebonbolt being so slow i seriously doubt you will fail to shatter it.
