PTS Stam DPS Testers!

Ohhgrizyyy · January 2019

As a console player I dont have access to a PTS so I'm asking (even though there will probably be YouTube videos on it) to test out this new set combined with whatever other sets and (maybe) dropping Rearming Trap?

Tzogvin’s Warband (Medium)2 – Adds 833 Weapon Critical3 – Adds 833 Weapon Critical4 – Adds 1487 Physical Penetration5 – When you deal critical damage with a Light or Heavy attack, you gain a stack of Precision, increasing your Weapon Critical by 129 for 10 seconds, up to 10 stacks max. At max stacks, you also gain Minor Force, increasing your Critical Damage done by 10%.

This set provides less crit than AY and has longer spin up time. Rearming trap is not a bad skill since it comes with a decent DoT for a "cast every 12 seconds" skill. Not sure what do you want to replace it with.

May be a good poor-man's AY alternative though.

Just a thought to test it 🤷‍♂️

Another set that seems interesting for either Stam DK's or maybe even Stam Sorcs is the new reworked "Deadly Strike" set.

5% crit and Minor Force. Meh, if you ask me.

But deadly strike looks cool *.*

I tried this on my archer Stamblade. In my case it's a decent gain over any alternative since I wasn't running minor force on the bow/bow build. In PTS 4.3.1 it was giving 1.5 kdps more than Briarheart, that's a shift from 42.5 kdps to 44 kdps.

On PTS 4.3.3 I'm now getting a repeatable 49 kdps with the same basic setup that I tested before, Tzogvin's / Relequen / Stormfist. I'm guessing something must be bugged.

Between 4.3.1 and 4.3.3 the set got buffed, CP multipliers scaled differently and Shadow was buffed, but I can't see how it would all be 5kdps higher now. The minor vulnerability from Stormfist is around 10-20% in both tests so that isn't the cause. All the CPs had to be reset on a new character, so there might be a CP bug? I switched the Lover Mundus to Shadow and used a Sharpened bow, so unless I stumbled on a new Bow meta, or I was zoned into hitting every skill flawlessly which never happened before, there's a bug. If there's no bug, I think I'm going to like bow/bow with Tzogvin's.
