Something else for my Stamblade besides beserking warrior?

scionix90

So I finally got my full set of body pieces in divines for my stamblade and I’m current pairing it with andvancing yokeda (go figure) and I was wondering if there was another set I could pair Relequen for almost equally good single target, trial dps? I have TFS, I don’t have a full set of WM yet and I know there is hundings and all the usual stuff. But what about Ravenger? Or 7th legion? Or anything? Any ideas would be great. Also right now I’m using 2 daggers, MH Nirnhoned with disease and OH infused with wep dmg. Should I be using an axe? I hear many different things such as from Alcast, xynode, Gilliam, etc. Btw I’m also a red guard and I rarely ever have suatain issues. Thanks in advance.

Btw I wear Relequen on all my body pieces and switch between Veli and Selenes. And just of a set to replace with A. Yokeda - which btw I think blocks out minor force from r. Trap and hemorrhaging.

People tend to forget about leviathan, it's literally identical to berserking warrior except with one wep damage bonus replaced by a max stam bonus. Not as good as BW, but almost the same and nobody ever mentions it.

Easier to get too, from a 4man and already leather with robust jewelry.

They don't mention it because it doesn't carry over to the back bar.

Op, you ought to be using a poison main hand, not disease.

And what, op, do you mean by this-

If you are a khajiit you could try briarheart. That's what I use, though I'm currently using VO with it while I gather my relequen pieces. I see an uptime of about 94-95% of the total possible uptime, and my rotation is close to 15 sec so it's almost always proccing as soon as I swap to the front bar.

Also, before people go saying "hundings better than briar", hundings does not carry over to the back bar. So if say briar procs towards the end of the front bar (very rarely) then you still get the benefit on the back bar. The average and maximum wep damage is increased and your front bar burst is increased.

You really just need the crit to keep it up, and that's why I say khajiit to use that.

If you want more damage, try mechanical acuity.

I get more dps, they aren’t fancy trial sets lol. I used those and I just had some hundings jewelry made. I want to try ALL sets so I know all my options. And I was also getting more dps then with the set you said.

I was saying when A.Y is at its max stacks you do not get the minor force and hemorrhage bonus. They are blocked out.

What does "blocked out" mean?

I’m thinking of trying TFS with Relequen and sticking with warrior stone..or has anybody tried ravenger set or anything else?

I've done many many dummy parses and dungeon runs pairing Relequen with Velidreth (i really despise Selene).

The highest dummy tests I've done have been with TFS/Relequen with AY/Relequen a little bit behind. (53k average with TFS/Relquen and ~50ish average with AY/Relequen 6m dummies).

I prefer TFS/Relequen in most cases. If there is a fight with a lot of movement or target swapping, I will pair TFS with War Machine.

I love briar heart. My Stamblade is a wood elf and I get > 90% uptimes with it.

Which is really strange because if you look at the tooltip it's very clear that briarheart has a max uptime of 66.6%, you guys know that the cmx for briarheart is bugged right?

I did not, but thank you for the info!

Tooltip for reference: "When you deal Critical Damage, you have a 10% chance to increase your Weapon Damage by 449 for 10 seconds. While this effect is active, your Critical Strikes heal you for 609 Health. This effect can occur once every 15 seconds"

The uptime represented in combat metrics is relative to the time it is able to be up. So yes, it represents the uptime, out of 66.6% so if I have a 94% uptime, I get 62.6% uptime. The reason it's "bugged" is that the heal ticks from briar reset the briarheart "buff" in the trackers, with a 5 second duration. So the last tick of the actual buff, gives you a 5 second buff that's being tracked, but really it's just the remaining cooldown of briar.

At least that's my understanding of it. I've payed a lot of attention to it since I got the set a month or so ago.

Xuhora

why is no one talking about ravager? Im not done with parses testing yet, but it seems at least on par with advancing yokeda
