Wearing a set with bad set bonuses up until the 5th with a 5 pc bonus that only affects something that holds a portion of your dmg is ridiculous.

    You should not be so quick to Judge. Infiltrator can be higher DPS than Viper... Quite easily in fact.

    The problem is, unless the info I was reading was wrong (which meshes with my recollection), it's a hybrid set. That already starts pigeonholing it.

    To be honest, the snide judgement had more to do with it being a medium armor set with a magicka focus, combined with the weapon crit up.

    I have no doubt this set appears to do more damage on paper, I'm just not convinced it's actually more effective than even something like Julianos.

    Weapons and Jewelry. It's backbar so the 4 piece would never be used, as 4+5 is only on backbar. But i do understand that initial reaction to the set.

    Mate, you can throw links at me all you like, I can guarantee I've seen them. Actually if you look at my signature, I released a very high dmg heavy attack build for Update 12. Masel's builds are fine, but they are by no means BiS for what is achievable. Just because it has vMA or vMol, approved.

    And what is BiS then? I'd very much like tips if 38k single target is not BiS...

    Lol, 5 moondancer, 5 bsw, 2 grothdarr would be better. I don't even need to test that.

    There are actually very few sets that are more effective than Julianos....

    This discussion was about heavy attack builds, and I tested that, it didn't produce more dps than my current setup with UI/BSW/Ilambris. You get the wrong synergy a lot of the times with MD, need to stay on your back bar to get the right synergy or work at least a full rotation cycle with the wrong MD buff with regen you don't need and minor slayer doesn't make up for that.

    Make a video with more than 38k dps on a dummy and I'll believe you :smiley:

    I'm talking about a non spammable as well. When I get another MD sword, I'll do the video. Better yet, when I get a MD staff, I'll do it. Or I'll just get one of my DK guildies to do it.

    I would also look up the loot tables of each boss, every boss has a unique item and sometimes they're rings or necklaces or a guaranteed certain trait item

    :o how does one do this....
