51/13/2 vs 40/26 single target

Yes but that thinking is antiquated. Most rogues go Ranger in ID. Hence the 1-handers benefit warriors far more than rogues.

All of our rogues are melee in Laethys. Arguably a more important encounter than anything else in ID short of Maelforge. Their top DPS spec is melee, too. So, it's not antiquated. It's a very true reality. Again, it's guild to guild. Loot system to loot system.

Ferboten whats your AP/CRIT when you are using 44prg & 38prg... when looking @ my own gear scaling w/ 4 ID relics i would guess ~1450/900?

1364 AP/944 Crit. I'm still missing 32 AP from Sword PA and 30 Dex PAs, so there's some room for improvement. It's not optimal for 44 Para which favors AP over Crit, since I'm just using my normal 2H gear/sigil. 38 Para favors Crit a little more, around the same as the 2H builds.

I'm releasing a new version of my spreadsheet hopefully tonight or tomorrow with some new things like frenzied strike dry spells and golem inductor uptime. It should hopefully shed some light on 44 Para vs 38 Para

Rogues got daggers and dagger PA, warriors can never get Dagger PA so should never get Daggers..

Warriors need a similar 1H where Rogues don't have the PA for it, so Rogues will not try to get them. A warrior only 1h, given that our DW specs can be good, and not all guilds are not good about remembering warriors can DW also.

well ituziel drops the songsword.. which is rogue only. half our rogues have that sucker already. That plus daggers means they are good to go. Strength heavy swords or axes go to warriors, if they want it. really not that big of a deal

[sabtr]

No, but name one encounter that is a massive AOE dps check right now besides Laethys?(for warriors)



And we come down to the age old debate of looting 1Hers. You know that most of them are going to go, in most guilds, to rogues. Some guilds will differ, but I'd bet money most guilds prefer to give 1Hers to Rogues before warriors.

isn't 13/2 + champ crystal better than 9/6 for laethys?

Either go 9/6 if adds not dying fast enough or 13/2 with BM crystal if adds die with time to spare.

13/2 with champ crystal has good AoE but suffers too much in ST to be worth it on this fight.

o so 13/2 with champ crystal and using regular rotation expect replacing FS with PS is less dps than 9/6 with champ crystal single target?
