Warhammer Witch Elf Guide

These may not be classified as tricks or whatever, but I’m hoping that people will reply with their own tricks/tips so I can add them to the guide.

Popping a cauldron early-If your trying to stop damage taken completely (i.e. you don’t have a healer) popping the cauldron as you think the enemys will start to chuck their dots on you etc… i.e. where you think they have noticed you, chuck it up, I think ive had more than 50 spells disrupted by the one cauldron before, when 9 odd people started spamming me with dots only to see them all disrupted. Now, if you do have a healer, realise that you can time the cauldron differently, your job with a healer is to reduce the burst damage you take, as to make yourself more healable, but also to bring attention to yourself in that you will need healing soon. Using the cauldron after you have a few dots up, means that your taking stable damage, its not high enough to not be healed through, but it lets the healer know to heal you, this also means that once the cauldron runs out, you will have hots/heals incoming and are more likely to be healed through it.

Openers from Stealth

Protip: Openers from stealth (Enfeeble Strike, Treacherous Assault, Vehement Blades) do not invoke the GCD, so it is wise to bind your most often used ability directly out of stealth to the same hotkey as your most often used opener. This allows you to spam your opener and get another hit and bloodlust in simultaneously with your opener. This is great for either getting up a quick kiss/healing debuff, or to stun/throat slitter them to scare them right from the start. -Thanks Qpon

On the respawn run or getting back into the fight

After respawning and running back to the engagement zone you see an IB/Lion/SM deep in your lines, quickly throw a few hits at them for bloodlust before going off to look for a squishy. If carnage spec, feel free to pop a CoIP and you have quite a high chance of bursting them down.
