About that smart loot

I had a fantastic run of willpower stuff the other day that I just have to share. Had a lot of key fragments from IC that I burned in a vault. Guess I was pretty unlucky with the drops to say the least :D

On the positive side, I have some starting material for a hybrid build!

    You could always list them at the guild traders for 10-20k each and see who bites 😉😈

    That's not what smart loot means. The set bonus can still proc/be active even if the weapon is the type that wouldn't be expected.

    Smart loot means weapons that cannot proc the set bonus will not drop. Such as a set which only procs from a melee heavy attack. Ranged weapons cannot proc this so in theory they shouldn't drop.

    Doylemish bow, I'm looking at you.

    I know what it means, it was just funny that I got so many melee ones.

    PTs comes out on Monday. 3pc sets have apparently been buffed substantially, so that Willpower stuff might be worth something if you hold onto it.

    This is correct, however you might want an bow of the set for the 4th set bonus.
    This is the best bow unless you have vMA or master bow.
    Add that Doylemish bow should proc on HA, bow HA is slow and clunky but should still proc.

    On the other hand magic sets with stamina weapons or the other way around is far more pointless.


    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.
