Legendary Soul Shield for Blade Master

General

Was currently wondering what people would roll with when the legendary soul shield's get implemented into our version of the game(EU/NA)

Wind Plains Soul Shield

  • 3 Set Bonus - Flicker Damage increased by 15%
  • 5 Set Bonus - 10atk power 15% crit dmg
  • 8 Set Bonus - Pentaslash(Five Point Strike) cooldown decreased by 80% and damage increased by 30%

Dragon's Ascent Soul Shield

  • 3 Set Bonus - Ascend Damage increased by 45%
  • 5 Set Bonus - 153 Acc, 14330 HP, 275 DEF
  • 8 Set Bonus - Second Wind(tab escape) cooldown decreased by 3 seconds

Black Tower Soul Shield

  • 3 Set Bonus - Lightning Draw cooldown decreased by 30%
  • 5 Set Bonus - 12 atk power, 18% crit dmg
  • 8 Set Bonus - Blade Call/Flock of Blades cooldown decreased by 30%

With all this in mind I personally feel that only the wind plains and black tower soul shields have any real benefit for blade master. I would definitely go full black tower however the 15% bonus damage to our flicker from the 3 set bonus of wind plains is also a HUGE benefit - considering 99% of our damage is in draw stance as bm. I can't confirm that these are the effects that we are going to be getting in EU/NA but I want to hear your opinions.
