[MATH] PvP Defensive Set Comparison (Impreg, Brass, Pariah, Riposte, + more)

So in circumstances where Riposte is only negating 10% of the incoming damage (compared to Combat Physician in a 1v1 scenario), a Riposte wearer would have withstand 41k damage every 6 seconds simply to equal the amount of damage negation a Combat Physician wearer can negate in an equal time span...
Over the course of a full minute, a Riposte wearer would have to withstand 410k damage simply to negate an equal amount of damage a Combat Physician wearer can negate in the same span of time...
With diminishing returns (due to CP's) being a negative to Riposte, I think its safe to say that Combat Physician is clearly superior to Riposte in a 1v1 scenario...
Dude, gtfo, that’s only 6.8k DPS, combat physician isn’t even close to riposte. You’re the absolute worst, this set is garbage and so is ANY build using it. That’s all fine and good, but then you try to recommend it to other people over actually viable sets? Just gtfo. Against no competent player would you last until the second proc of CP if you even considered going offensive.

We play 100% min maxed and theorycrafted builds and then comes this smartass and tries to tell us that there's a set we overlooked while spending weeks optimizing builds to perfection. Dude is delusional.

LMAOOOOO
My buddy does an average of 4-7k per light attack in his duel build, combat physician against his build would basically mean you aren't running a 5p.
Oooooo...
Math time!!
So on a 4k light attack, we can expect Riposte to reduce its damage by 400 due to diminishing returns....
Wow, at that rate, it would take 11 light attacks in a 6 second span for Riposte to negate more damage than Combat Physician will in an equal time span...
Awesome!!!
4k damage shield every 6s that could potentially hit a target, and will only proc after you have gotten hit and only if the heal after you got hit is a crit, AMAZING. Such a great set. That vs a near constant up time on Minor Maim wish also does not have a cooldown and can effect multiple enemies at once and will as well help defend your allies.... Also with the amount of DoTs that is thrown around, and seriously you are using light attacks as your example? Minor Maim will keep protecting you even if the damage you take exceeds 4000k over a 6s period. The added benefit of Wizards also working against gankers.... there is really no comparing these 2 sets. CP has been trash for a very long time in group based content such as open world PvP. Facing multiple opponents on your own as well. Really only Duels where CP might be viable.3 -

CP is trash. Get over it. You are literally arguing for a set only from a duel perspective and yet not a single player in any duelling tournament used that set. If you absolutely wanted to put on a defensive set that is just good in a 1v1 scenario u can put on blessed meridia. There you go, no need for a tiny shield every few seconds. You can just dodge everything with a 40-50% uptime.
Meridian is heavy...no thanx.
Light Armor passives are awesome and are too good to pass up...
Even Lexx agrees with me on this... Unyeilding Bias

Entertaining my ass. He's unable to accept that he's wrong that's it. To summarize him in an analogy, it's like a 70 year old NBA fan would try to argue and convince Mike Jordan that the way he plays ball is right and Jordan has no clue what he's doing.
We play 100% min maxed and theorycrafted builds and then comes this smartass and tries to tell us that there's a set we overlooked while spending weeks optimizing builds to perfection. Dude is delusional.
I didn’t overlook it, I’ve tested combat physician multiple times. That’s the ridiculous thing, he insists I’m ignorant when I’ve run this set for probably 50 hours of pvp gameplay.
I always test, always. You never know what’s going to better than it seems(overwhelming surge) or far worse(livewire). I’ve had CP in perfect traits on weapons and jewels for more than 18 months but this joker acts as though I don’t know what I’m talking about despite thoroughly testing every possible combination with this disaster of a set.
Also, meridias is always better than CP in duels3 -

What do you do if CP bubble breaks before the CD? Because it is not a big bubble and requires a crit heal to work.Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly
I was born with the wrong sign
In the wrong house
With the wrong ascendancy
I took the wrong road
That led to the wrong tendencies
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
On the wrong day of the wrong week
Used the wrong method with the wrong technique0 -

50 hours is more than enough to test a set and compare it with others that he's spent an equal amount if not more on.
Also math is irrelevant in pvp. Night mother's gaze provides more dps (ergo more "math") than clever alchemist yet clever is better than nmg in any way possible for PvP.Edited by Subversus on December 29, 2017 6:36PM3 -

Let’s break it down further. I devised that the best possible build to wear CP on is a mag NB with mother’s sorrow. Huge crit chance and I had multiple HoTs to proc it basically on cooldown. Despite a big bastion investment and huge crit chance I still found the shield was inadequate to offer noticeable survivability even in a duel situation.0 -

Dude, gtfo, that’s only 6.8k DPS, combat physician isn’t even close to riposte. You’re the absolute worst, this set is garbage and so is ANY build using it. That’s all fine and good, but then you try to recommend it to other people over actually viable sets? Just gtfo.

We play 100% min maxed and theorycrafted builds and then comes this smartass and tries to tell us that there's a set we overlooked while spending weeks optimizing builds to perfection. Dude is delusional.
I didn’t overlook it, I’ve tested combat physician multiple times. That’s the ridiculous thing, he insists I’m ignorant when I’ve run this set for probably 50 hours of pvp gameplay.
I always test, always. You never know what’s going to better than it seems(overwhelming surge) or far worse(livewire).

Weaving is also a factor to consider. Weaving before every skill makes it basically useless if you only take the follow up attack into consideration. At best you'll have a 1k shield to mitigate an ability every 6 seconds. Abilities are the ones that put the actual pressure against a target, and calling a negated light attack every 6 seconds something better than riposte is absurd.1 -

✭✭IMO, CP seems too inefficient. Sure, it could get some great mitigation as the bubble stands up, but that bubble has a cost associated, which is the heal. It means that, if you haven't received dmg, you cannot proc it, contrary to other bubbles, such has harness, or annulment, that can be casted out of a fight.
In the case of HoT it turns into a RGN roulette to get the crit (IDK if it proc on HoTs). The thing is that if yo go for burst to proc it, it can be a waste of magicka to make it work. For example, a mDK using Cblood as main heal could have big problems with that set unless he builds towards crit... but it is quite uncommon to see a mDK using crits as main feature, unless they're healers.
So, understanding that you need magicka to proc the set, it comes the comparison. Hardened or Annulment both give something back for the price you have to spend on them, same as Igneous or even sun shield. When compare it with other set shields, such as Imperium or Swift, the price is too high (both shields can proc on a minimum dmg received). Not to mention Hatchling shell, which is for free and has some more than decent mitigation stats, and Para Bellum, which works quite well for opening (and can be combined with another more reliable bubble). Even good old Whitestrake's works exactly when you need it (30% heath). The last two of them provide bigger shields and can eventually work together.
There's another flaw I see on CP. If it does work on crit heals, it means your healing must be your strongest feature, so it works based on mitigation... so it is mitigation (heal) over mitigation (bubble). There's a skill that works similar to that and does it better: Healing ward. That wonderful skill is mitigation (bubble) over mitigation (heal) and escalates based on how small is your health pool... and has no CD associated. The best part of the comparsisson is the fact that you don't need a strong healing based build to use Ward, while CP only works well for healers.
After that analisis, comparing a set that procs on every crit received, applying minor maim for 15 sec on any enemy hitting you, and that has no CD (and no cost) with a very expensive weak shield that requires you to build towards it, seems... how to put it? Oh, yeah...

Naive...Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly
I was born with the wrong sign
In the wrong house
With the wrong ascendancy
I took the wrong road
That led to the wrong tendencies
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
On the wrong day of the wrong week
Used the wrong method with the wrong technique0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I don´t understand what the arguement is about tbh.
Combat physician can theoretically outperform riposte in a strict 1v1 scenario if you manage to procc it absolutely on cooldown if you have it permanently active on both bars and your opponent does not break the dps threshhold for riposte to become better.
Most builds do not run two permanent 5p bonuses (and as a single 5p combat physician isn´t good enough). Which is an advantage for riposte - it´s perfectly fine only on backbar.
Most people also do not only fight one opponent at the same time - in cyrodiil as soon as you fight 2 people it´s basically impossible for CP to outperform riposte.
Another argument is that the double critbonus on combat physician is as undesireable as it can get. Crit is simply an afterthought compared to other setbonuses (regen, dmg, stats).
Sure it´s theoretically decent on a build having it permanently active on both bars - but sets like transmutation or riposte don´t have to meet that criteria to be 100% effective and scale with number of people you´re fighting wheras CP does not.<Noricum>
I live. I die. I live again.

TheDoomsdayMonster✭✭✭✭✭Combat Physician is better than Riposte in ways that Riposte can't match...
Did you all know that Purifying Light can Proc the Combat Physician Damage Shield?
Of course many of you didnt know this; you don't use the gear...how would you know?
So I can give out my 5th piece Healing Bonus and do excellent burst damage to a target simultaneously...
And not only that, I can do so from safety from the back ranks (or from on top of a keep wall) without ever once exposing myself to danger...
Riposte simply can't match that...

It's the type of mitigation that is so bad. Its easy to create a window of offense and fight around. If that would proc while in pressuring you on any character, you'd lose it and be without ANY mitigation from your 5pc.
Anything can be used in a zerg fight. We are talking about skilled game play here.
Reposte can absolutely make a larger impact than CP, you just can't stand in the back in safety of a zerg spamming heals. If 10 ppl hit my frontline templar build. Chances are they'll get maim on them with a couple attacks. Boom. Instantly better than CPs mediocre conditional shields on a cooldown.0 -

Ah, but I know what abilities proc it, so I can fight in situations were it will proc when facing an opponents burst (while unloading burst of my own) and destroy them...
I do it all the time when facing stamina builds...
And I absolutely use it in situations that call for skill as a result...
I know precisely how to get maximum benefit from Combat Physician...and when to get it.Unyeilding Bias
