Stanos gloves lasts 72 minutes, so that's a reasonable amount of time. How did you handle assassinates, though?

Oh I didn't backstab, just AFK swinging.

Re: .
Bagged my Epic when I got 41% haste, Sol Ro dagger, and Sparkling Shortsword offhand. I mostly raid, so the 4 magic damage on the shortsword hits often from tash. Check magelo for any other stats. I have parsed much higher since bagging.
-41% Haste
-Malevolent Dirk of DeceptionMainhand (16/19)
-BloodbathOffhand (16/21 - 12% Backstab mod - 25atk with 2regen)
-85 worn atk (high 1200s buffless, 1289 total IIRC, at 1301 now with 95 worn atk buffless)
-Ancient Prismatic Spear (Avatar proc)
Haven't parsed the difference yet (I just got this combo this week, bear with me), but I will be doing so soon. My original combo was Bloodbath/Ragebringer. Pretty sure it's an upgrade against PoP mobs, but with the low amount of worn atk I'm wondering if it's an upgrade against Luclin based mobs. I'll parse in VT as well and see. I'll keep you all posted on what I find.
Re: re
From what I have seen the 16/19 and Rage Combo is about equal to 16/19 and 16/21 offhand with around 1300 atk. If you raise atk higher then that then that combo outdamages 16/19 and epic combo.
Re: re
Just bagged mine.
was wielding MDoD/Rage, now GRMK/MDoD
41% haste from GoDS
unbuffed ATK 1357 post bagging (110 worn ATK mod)
wasn't going to bag it until i had something 16/19 or better for offhand, wicked shank didn't do it for me 16/21 + proc resulted in it's destruction, favored rage until I got GRMK then MDoD went to offhand.

First 41% haste item
I was using Wicked Shank in main and Ragebringer in offhand. When I looted my first 41% haste item, the earring of endless speed off Doomshade I banked Ragebringer for Massive Heartwood Thorn. Probably had about 1250 atk at the time... much has changed since then.
Re: First 41% haste item
torvrogue> the banker is green right? so a greater atk do nothing against him because yous already hit almost every time for max. Thats why you did a better dps on second parse(better off hand ratio)
do it again on the red con mob in POI... you'll see a big difference and dont forget to backstabb, it represents 40% of our DPS and a better atk grants better backstabs too!!
on one hand we got better mainhand piercing + better backstabs, on the other hand we got only better offhanding...
do the math and parse
I parsed full chaman buffed mdod main hand + rage then mdod + salindrite dagger(13/18 +263dd)
the rage combo wins by 10%
i have only 36% haste but even with a 40% haste the rage is better

Don't let the green con of the katta bankers fool you, they mitigate the equivalent of a normal risk LDoN mob.
Quote:I would not switch Rage for Ancient Burrower Spine.
He's fine banking Rage for the Spine. He's slightly below the attack break even point where the ABS ratio is enough to overcome the inferior Rage ratio & attack bonus. All the parses I made to find the break even point were with a 16-21 offhand (0.76 ratio) and the parses showed the crossoverpoint being at 1450 attack. The ABS w/o bane is 0.73, with bane 0.79 so it falls within close range of the parse setup I had done. I've got the ABS in the bank and do the parses again but I'd be wasting my time.
