Are the new Mythic items worth breaking 5 piece bonus?

As the title suggests. Are any of these really worth the time? I’m thinking about going after the flat 25% damage ring, but is it worth the time breaking monster set and 2x 5 piece bonuses?

    You don't need to break a five piece. Just use another high stat single piece like a monster piece. If you want to keep your monster do 3 piece on front and 3 piece on the back.

    Have a look at my magdk build if you're not sure what I mean.

    You could also run monster and weapon set etc...

    Thrassian stranglers is well worth breaking a monster set.

    Yes, but I personally won't slot them because I refuse to do so

    The ring will be a damage loss in PVE, crit is just too important. I’ve heard good things about it in no-CP PVP.

    Thrassian is definitely better than a 5pc set for damage, but it’s also likely to get you killed. 40% more incoming damage, 40% less healing received and 40% smaller shields is no joke.

    I mean.. play the game that's in front of you, not the one you wish it to be. Otherwise that is just a recipie for frustration when there are those that dont share your principles. No one is going to pat you on the back for your honorable approach :wink:

    They are very situational, something you create your build around

    The stranglers for example, yes they will get some monstrous numbers on a dummy but as far as using them in any serious content... maybe... but you sure better have faith in your healer.

    For any thrill seekers out there, how about vet dlc dungeon pug runs while using the stranglers 🤪😆🤬
