Warriors: Crit vs AP

yeah i didn't know if you rolled your eyes hard enough you could become nauseated
 
You are implying that AP wouldn't effect yellows?

No but you will have more damage and burst if you are critting more often than slightly harder hits and not critting ad often

Yeah well that's pretty much what this thread is all about :D

And because TI people are not popular with posting with actual facts or theorycrafting, I'm going to farm the crit set and try it out for myself. Maybe even post some numbers here! :O

I have tried both and i prefer the crit set much more than a strength build. with the strength set i just felt like i couldnt get anything going
 
if you're gearing for crit every time you crit you're going to think "omg, i'm critting so much because of my gear, cool, this is really good"

in reality you're a fool
 
For my part i play my warrior as like Taric assist bot lane in League of Legends so that's why i don't have skinning and i don't crit alot cuz Taric is the jewel master and he need mining to do good shit.

please don't compare warriors to one of those shitty "champions" or whatever they are called from a shitty kindergarden game. it's insulting.

@tunt: begone!

and mesi, i don't see what you are trying to get from a dps test. What if more str gear is doing more dps over an hour and crit gear is doing slightly less dmg in that time? what's ur conclusion from it? that str gear is better? in those test you are missing the momentum-effect (just created that expression) that you get when critting hard and putting other players (which are human irl) under pressure. fast high numbers, even if you do the rest of the time like idk 50%less dmg compared to str gear, is more essential then doing constant dps.

I'm not going to test a simple DPS test, like how much pure damage I do per second with each set. I'm going to try out how much damage on average I do in each set per crit, I mean it's cool if you crit all the time but if you do shit damage even on crit, it's not that
cool. I don't know how well AP scales with damage so I can't say anything yet.

Also, it's not like you crit once a year with 20% crit and every other hit with 25% crit. 5% increase is just one more crit in 20 swings, if you think of it that way.

Yeah I'm not that stupid, if AP set does 1% damage more than crit set, obviously crit set is better because of the burstiness. But I can't figure this out without actually testing it or getting some facts on the table...

even if you do the rest of the time like idk 50%less dmg compared to str gear


If you do 50% damage less with crit gear, doesn't that mean that you crit for the same amount that AP set would hit non-crit? Lmao

Yes, if you do 50% of the damage without critting in a crit set, that means with a crit you do exactly same damage as a normal hit in an AP set.

Not like it actually goes like that ingame, but that was a bad example tbh :p
 
Sustained damage is pointless ATM every dps should be stacking crit.

Indeed. 10 top end dmg has nothing on 5-10% crit in a game where it's all about burst dmg or shit doesn't die.

Also; You can't say "50% dmg is same as crit in AP gear" lmao. You don't do 100% more dmg in AP gear than you do in crit gear. Bad math is bad.

Hit(Cap)>Exp(Cap)>Crit>Str>Stam.
