EU+US Versatility in Legion

[Liarea]

As most of you probably all ready know, spirit will be converted into versatility.

That means that us twinks will have 20 Vers gems at our disposal. I'm interested in seeing some number crunching as to whether or not it is worth gemming full vers (especially now that we get all socket bonuses regardless of what we gem), as opposed to gemming full strength/int/agi, like most of us currently do.

I suspect vers to be inferior for most dps classes. But I'm interested in seeing how it stacks up for tanks.

I put 15 gems into my gear on the PTR and got to around 25%. With more sockets/socket slots and the proper enchants, I suspect this number to go as high as 35%.

Keep in mind it's 20 Vers vs 10 Str/Int/Agi. Let me here your thoughts.

Gems/enchants won't do anything in pvp.
Versa is never going to be better than primaries for damage.

So that leaves versa as a stat for tanks in pve exclusively. I think it's going to continue to be better than the other wod enchants, but I doubt it'll outweigh dodge/parry/stam gems in terms of survival. You'll be able to reach ~15-20% damage reduction by going full retard versa gear, but that means sacrificing ilvl which is counterproductive since ilvl also gives you damage reduction.

Those are my thoughts as well.

Perhaps it'll be viable to swap out the gems in ones current gear for Vers if you're a tank with steady healing, seeing that 25-35% increased healing is quite the bit.

U could try a mix of vers and primary stat gems that would give a little bit better dps just my opinion tho

1 primary will always be better than 2 versatility in terms of damage output.

At what point do these values become the opposite then? Is 3 vers better than 1 main stat?

u probably wont get versa gems on any dps class, myb its worth a try on some heal classes

Is that database with scaleable enchants updated yet?

It seems like a lot changed, especially for +Stamina enchants, but also the +Stats enchants and such.
