    This whole thread was about him asking how to get better dps with his current sets.

    Not everyone has to be the best of the best. He's found a combo that he like and that works for him. He just wanted to know which of two ways would work better.

    If someone could answer what he actually asked instead of just telling him he's wrong, I'm sure he'll appreciate it :smile:

    So true and why i don't ask for build advice in this game anymore. So many people get told you should do this or that period.

    Spinner has always been a good set, also for PvE. Even though in HotR I would opt for a different set like Julianos or Netch/Necro or even Mother's Sorrow for raids because the crit will have a good synergy with warhorn. You can easier get the additional Penetration from the Lover Mundus now, and just switch Between Thief/Apprentice and Lover depending on which content you plan on doing and which group you're in. I used spinner for a long time because it was the best replacement for sharpened weapons and I didn't wanna more gear all the time and it let me use charged on my magicka builds.

    Hey what's is your problem? I am not going to do vet Maelstrom. Get on it. Its a game. Do it if you want, but I won't. This is not fun at all and it's a complete waste of time. I don't give a damn getting a good dps in a VIDEO GAME.

    If you dont care about your dps then why go to the effort to ask your question?

    Run 5x hundings, 3x endurance jewellery, nighflame head/shoulders and 2 random powered ice staves.

    Win.

    Because, just maybe, there is this whole middle space between rock bottom (your 'suggestion') and running VMA ad naseum to get 'the best.'

    Then why are you on forums asking about your build if you "don't give a damn"?

    If you want to run spinners and Master Staff, keep the 5 piece on both bars.

    There were also some good suggestions for increasing your DPS in between the useless posts, even if you don't want to run vMA.

    The OP question seemed to be asking if the loss from not double barring Spinner's would be significant if just casting LL and Blockade from the back bar.

    If this is the case, and you spend 2 seconds out of an 8 second rotation on your back bar, the 3450 bonus to penetration will be active 75%. If we assume that Spinner's accounts for the last 3450 penetration necessary to hit the cap, it would normally be providing 7.4% more damage. Having it active 75% means it would average to 5.5% more damage. So whatever you have on your back bar would need to add more than 2% to your total damage output to make up the difference. The Master's staff will definitely not make up that difference. A vMA staff might, but since that is not available, double barring Spinner's would be the way to go.

    As a side note, what content are you thinking of doing while wearing Spinner's and what other sources of penetration are you using or have provided from group members?

    Just do maelstrom arena lol... it's not that hard and it's a fun challenge.

    As Shia leBouf says... Just... Do... It!

    ...spinners is not good. Master is not good either for DPS class. Master Resto is great for a healer.

    Minus the whole go crayz part and get thrown in jail, lol.
