Usually if you want to use Mechanical Acuity you would not want to invest in Crit chance at all, since when Mech Acuity procs your extra crit chance becomes pointless. So Leviathan would be pointless 24% of the time (5 out of 21 seconds), or another way to think of it is it would be 24% less strong than it normally would be when paired with Mech Acuity.

Dang so what's pair's good with mech acuity? Or leviathan for Stam nightblade dps thank you

Put on stuff and test it out. 500+ sets to mess around with and find what you like. With MA, you might like Briarheart or relequen, or even something like unfathomable darkness, but honestly, there's so many sets that would pair great with it, go look around and experiment!

Briar mecha is pretty solid at least on a class that has reaccuring burst times like nightblade. Other then that i wouldnt run mechanical outside of exp grinds

DinoZavr

if you are on PC - you can test this on PTS with Combat Metrix addon.
(you have not mentioned your class and build, so i suspect stamina dual-wield, non Templar, probably non Nightblade either, also it is not clear if you PVE (do you do coordinated groups or PUGs/solo) or PVP. No offense, with the question asked that nebulous, expect the same abstract answers).

For PVE check SkinnyCheeks builds for your class on youtube, also his top stamina sets and listen to his comments about Mechanical Acuity.

Night blade for pve thank you for answers

coletas

For pve i would be vampire and titanborn ... Or clever alchemist for pvp. I suggest you to invest some time in the pts + combat metrics

Sets I like to pair with acuity have loads of weapon damage with little crit, and no proc condition. As an example: Yandirs might take a long time to wind up, yet acuity pops instantly when you hit something, so if Yandirs is only on the first stack when the 100% crit is turned on, you get very little out of the combination.

However these sets are "always on" with very high weapon damage:

Sword singer: 2H/2H build, Stampede on back bar/ Brawler/ Wrecking blow/ Reverse slice for AOE execute

Twin sisters Sword dancer: DW/DW build, Deadly Cloak on back bar/ flurry/ whirling blades for AOE execute

Swamp raider: for a bow build, it buffs acid spray/ lethal arrow/ assassin's scourge, incapacitating strike, and killers blade for the execute

I'm pretty sure you mean sword dancer instead of twin sisters for dw setup. Twin sisters is the block bleed dot proc set.
