vMSA Precise fire staff

Hi guys,

This is a PVE question even tho im more of a pvp guy. So responses in relation to pve dps pllease. Im basically defeated. A broken man. My Will to continue vmsa has dissipated and i need to refocus and get back to playing how i actually enjoy. Dungeons, levelling a rediculous amount of alts and most importantly to me... PVP.

So... after a crazy amount of runs and weeklies i have got 2 fire destros precise. A bunch of defending and a lot of sharpened/precise lightning and ice. So i dont want to complain to much.

Basically im using fire precise on main bar of mageblade and firedk with defending fire on backbar for aoe and buffs.

Get to the point haq....

Running julianos, kena/valkyn, willpower atm.

How can i best align my stats and gear to work with the precise staff? More cp penetration? Twice born star with shadow and apprentice mundus?

Is there a work around? Or should i just throw a few more cp in spell pen and stay as is?

Sorry for the long post. Was contemplating vmsa again today for weeklies on 8 characters but then decided i increased bad traits in the drops and a horrible couple of days of playtme and i tapped out.

Cheers!

    I have no idea. I was going to recommend Nifty's guide but that's for Templars and it seems we're best using dual swords again. ^^

    I do love that staff, I'll have to level my DK just to use it seriously as I've been using it on my Templar and I haven't had much success, I guess.

    CPs for spell penetration are, to put it bluntly: absolute trash.

    The only thing this might change is whether you want to use the Thief or Shadow mundus if you don't run TBS.

    If you got less crit chance than critical damage, go for Thief, otherwise go for Shadow.

    I would definitely go with TBS instead of Julianos with thief/shadow combinatio. Spell pen CPs are close to useless. You better invest a bit more into elf born. But overall you should not lose too much dmg compared to a sharpened staff. Make sure to have a assosination ability on every bar for the 10% increase in crit dmg.

    Depends. If you are in raid group with debuffs flying all over the shop, precise should be better. For general messing around solo, pledges etc sharpened will be better.
