Is it true that divine trait only works for 6 pieces of gear?

Gothlander

I was talking to someone in game yesterday and he told me that. So, I guess for pve, it would be best for 6 divine and one infused?

paulsimonps

That is not true, you can even have 8 with a shield and it works.

Gothlander

Really? I was wondering. Good thing I didn't craft and gold any gear according to him lol. So it's divine all the way for pve? Infused is useless I guess.

It depends on your build. Some go Infused on large pieces and divines on small and others go all divines.

Gothlander

Yeah. I was thinking infused on chest, the rest divine. Is there a meta for traits?

If you're a crit build - maybe a NB, Stam Sorc...you may want to go Divines on all pieces to max out Thief. Other builds might not need all Divines.

What would be best for a stamplar? I think it's a crit build, because of biting jabs buff.

Infused on big: ~ +0,35% DPS compared to no trait
Devine: ~+0,45% DPS with thief @ 50% crit dmg (base); goes up to +0,885% at 95% crit dmg (20% from cp, 10%+15% from minor and major force)

For me well within the "to small dont care" range.

My tanks runs Infused with Prismatic enchantments on the big pieces, Divines on the small ones. My stamblade runs all Divines because Thief.

If that's your build then it would appropriate; my reply was not an effort to encapsulate all known builds or skills - just examples to set context.

If your a dps (e.g. crit)

Then all divines.

Unless your wearing Twice Born Star or just can't make your build work because your lacking 2.7% Critical Chance, then go Infused on the 3/4 large pieces and Divines on the smaller 4 pieces.

It all depends on your build and what you are aiming for. My hybrid tank/DPS/heals is 8 Infused Hakeijo, but for that build I need raw resources more than anything else. Its true that its not the best at any role, but its perfectly sufficient for anything less than trials, and its nice to be able to deal 20k single target while tanking...that's the type of tank you want for places like DCII, but it is NOT a meta build. I don't take that build to trials or even to DLC dungeons, but do take it everywhere else, including vMA.

Are your attribute points evenly distributed as well?

It's not useless, but meta for DPS is certainly all divines. The reality is that on big pieces, the difference between infused and divines is very small. 99% of the player base wont be able to tell much of a differnece. If for some reason you are struggling to get your health up (low CP or witchmothers), then and infused big piece with a healthy glyph can be very nice.

Cool. So it's a very small difference a infused on chest or divine on chest. Infused seems to be the smartest move because you can give your health a big boost if you ever need it.

Nope, all in magicka in attribute points, have to be able to hit/heal fairly hard(for a tank)
