@ Melee Stamblades how would you combine these gear sets?

Currently running:

Spriggans (DW front bar), Cowards Gear (2H back bar), Agilty (weap damage)


But I'm also thinking of the following

Spriggans (DW front bar), Briarheart (2h back bar) Agility (stam cost reduction x 2, stam regen 1)

Sword-Singer (2h front bar, 3 jewellery (stam reduce/regen), legs), Air (2h back bar), 4 body, 2 pc monster set (either stam regen or weapomn crit or damage - happy to swap the glyps with the jewellry).

My other Stamblade runs

Hundings (DW front bar, 3 body), Clever Alchemist (4 body, DW back bar). Agility (weap damage) - this build is ther most effective one yet and the only true 'proc'-type set I use (I prefer my damage to be my own rather than a stupid imaginary bear/ duneripper etc). Weapons damage when buffed is 4400 and (i think) weapon crit is 61. This is the most effective none-proc set up I've found yet (I don't consider CA to be a true proc set, more of a buff set).

Anyone care to advise on these combos? Constructive criticism please. And try to avoid suggesting proc sets but feel free to suggest other sets. I'd prefer not to use proc-sets.

    Drop Agility. Its not worth anymore compared to a monster set. Spriggans front bar and whatever else on body/jewerly whatever you do.

    Even slimeclaw is better just so you can save a skill slot then agility next patch.

    I play almost exclusively on non-CP campaign and I use Dubious Camoran Throne drink and also animation cancel. The drink gives me 1400 stam regen so I can manage pretty good.
    If you look at the gear sets above you'll see that I mention I'm happy yto swap glyphs around on the jewellery.
    Talking of sustain, I much prefer 'cost reduction' glyphs than regen. I'm not to sure of the technical/mathmetical implications of that (LOL) but cost reduction whether stam or mag always seems to benefit me more.
    Bone Pirate is a very nice looking set though and I'm working towards getting a set including the jewellry.

    Hi Soup! I'm still rocking that Hundings/ CleverAlchemist/Agility you suggested for me ages ago - its an absolute beast of a build lol. :smiley: Would you say CA > Hundings?

    If your ganking CA > Hundings. If your not Plague Doctor > CA. Viper > Hundings even after next patch but infused for dw is best.

    I dont do much ganking anymore. Your current setup is still probably bis for a none proc based gank. CA isnt a proc in my opinion.

    I chucked a buncha that recently, is it really worth running? Looks like it's only 2k max STAM with the drink buff.. isn't a food buff better?

    You wouldn't be using it for the max stam, its more for the regen. Besides, you get 2000 for the set and then another 3192 max stam from the dubious camoran throne drink (which is what most run with bone pirate).

    The regen from using these is 150 from the set and then 319 for the drink.

    HI - assuming you're running them with Air jewellery? How do you combine it all to get the 5 piece bonus of both sets?

    Actually ignore that, I think i've figured it out 3 x Hundings body + 2 Hundings daggers, 4 Spriggans body + 1 Spriggans necklace, 2rings of Air (sounds sucky but trust me on this lol). I'm just crafting it and setting it up now - think I will have 2k regen which is more than enough (remember I said I can get by on 1400-1500)

    Instead of going with the 2 Rings just use Bloodspawn set, same recovery and you even get a bonus ability
