Arkana are perfect beings forged by the one called ‘Mother’ to bring peace to the planet, but working for peace also means working only off the filtered information Mother gives you. Scarlet Blade takes place in the distant future where regular humans have all but been wiped from existence and instead we have Commanders, Arkana, and the baddies.
As such, let’s consider this a postmortem judgment on our time together Scarlet Blade, and no, we are never ever getting back together. Unfortunately, it seems as though the honeymoon period with this piece of work was shorter than I anticipated. I planned to write an article on this MMO while I was still playing it. Once I have those 2 secondary stats, other upgrades in that slot are largely marginal - and should be passed on (which is why I pass on offset helms/robes).(Warning: the images in this post are NSFW) I will take a piece with 2 secondary dps stats over something with just one and Spirit any day of the week, and twice on Sunday. I'm also fairly certain the dps upgrades you have calculated are not properly accounting for gem sockets. While it may turn out that this is as much of an upgrade from the tier item as a robe or helm, it is at least a much closer call than it would be for someone who is stuck with Spirit they don't want on their tier leggings. If you want your 4 piece set bonus then you have to look at the best overall upgrade from 5 slots, not just one. You shouldn't cream your pants over these (pun intended) just because they drop and you see the stats on them. It's not just about which item is BIS for caster itemization. As far as the "It's more abundant on gear" that is a non-argument as far as which stat is more valuable - if anything it means you'd want crit if they were equal since Spirit is easier to get and you wouldn't incur diminishing % dps gain returns from stacking it if your other items have Spirit instead.
I know that for me at about 1900 unbuffed spellpower, a point of crit rating is worth somewhere in the neighborhood of half a point of spellpower, and also scales much better with gear upgrades than Spirit, which is essentially wasted item points. Compared to crit rating, the item cost of Spirit is actually exactly equal, so unless crit is only worth 30% of the value of Spell Power for you, the crit is still better, point for point. And I'm pretty sure that crit, though an expensive stat, is still better than Spirit for all offensive casters.
Comment by 116147Are we talking about maximizing your raid's dps here? Because it's still a whole hell of a lot more of an upgrade for certain classes than others from the tier item.
