New Guard Build

Dude, zerk gear has considerably more dmg than soldiers gear

haha xD
I think you won't change Raven's mind Titus

Nope german xD that's my negative thingy. If i get something in my head, well, it's stuck there. And I've seen my test results. Can't record them atm cause I got no time

Ffs Raven. This is not a matter of opinion. Its facts. If you test this exstensively, you will have to conclude that with zerk gear you have a very high chance of doing more dmg than with soldier gear. Id say that in at least 90% of the cases zerk gear will do more dmg

Ladies, ladies, you're both pretty

Soldiers and Zerk share the same amount of power (as far as I remember, 900 and something)

However, zerker has a higher chance to deal more damage than Soldier's does, because of the fact that it also gives nice Prec+Ferocity stats.

Raven is also right that it's a matter of luck... but when playing with Zerk gear on my thief and a 40ish% crit chance, I can see that almost every second hit is a crit. Titus is thus right about the fact that you can force luck with precision.

Either way, Zerk holds the possibility to deal more damage, but I'm keeping soldiers for the survivability

Now shut up and do some PvP together to cool it off

Thief attack speed > guardian attack speed. Guards with 40% chance won't crit every second I think :-D (just keeping up the general spirit of the topic here)

And I got no time to play atm noz :'(

Wtf does the time have to do with it? Its about critting every 2nd attack

Sigh, this isn't going to end...
I was just saying to noz that guards have a lower attack speed than thiefs. But clearly you wanna keep arguing. So let's go!

40% doesn't mean it crits every 2nd attack. It means that there is a CHANCE for a crit, no guarantees what so ever!

In the long term, Zerker will always outdamage Soldier. Fact. Short term, the damage may be equal, if you're lucky with crits on Soldier and unlucky on Zerker. Alright.
Now we got it? And Noz, it's totally fine that you start out with Soldier, but at one point you should switch to Zerker because your biggest asset to the team is your damage output.

yh lets leave it at that

So far, Zira was the rightest person here.

now I understand that this build is useful for our squishes, which GloB has quite an amount of (Zira, Varez etc)
