Ideal Usage
Brimflow is useful when you cannot reliably avoid all incoming hits during an empowered rotation. It trades some offensive ceiling for more consistency and can help keep high-commitment melee sequences from being punished as hard.
Balance Note
Exact percentages can change. Compare your current in-game tooltip before deciding between Brimflow and older defensive sets.
