Warriors: Crit vs AP

[Blackout]

Using X numbers here is my two cents. Lets say a warriors AP in normal everyday DPS gear is 500. 40 AP out of that 500 is hardly noticeable damage difference, think of 40 AP as 20 STR. One could say that 40 AP is 12.5% of your whole attack power and that is 12.5% less damage, which is wrong. Attack power is only damage increase ontop of your weapons damage, to get the exact figures you need to figure how much damage increase 500AP would be of your overall top end damage, work out the percentage increase that it is and then use that figure to work out what the real % damage increase is.

For example, lets say a warrior has 500 AP and your top end weapon damage is 200 in this gear.

Lets also say that 500 AP would equate to being 40% of your top end weapon damage, which would equal 80 weapon damage.

you then have to take 500 AP, divide it by 40 which gives you 12.5.

From here, you need to figure out 12.5% of 80 damage which is 6.4 top end damage.

So in this hypathetical example, you would be comparing 5-6% crit to 6.4 top end weapon damage.

For accurate results, log a geared warrior that has both sets and follow this method and post back for it to be black and white exacts.

14 ap increase your dps by 1. In your example 40 ap would increase your dps by about 2,86 which is ~11 more top end (assuming you are using BAR).

Balance the two, but take 1 crit over 1 str. Dont go full retard stendel mode

Edit: Try reaching spell hit cap also for charge stun

Rance did that he had like Wild Rider's gloves, Rift Bracers, Cobrahn's Boots, and Stillwater's Signet.

I was just using made up numbers to explain how to work out the exact number using real numbers ^^ as a warrior, rogue and feral for that matter in my opinion id say that DPS isn't as important as a higher top end damage to focus our attention on in this thread, although ofcourse they both correlate. So we're saying that it's 11 top end vs 5-6% crit? Can anyone confirm the exact percentage the critical set people are using increases from the usual BiS set?

It depends on how much crit gear you decided to add. Kind of personal preference.

about the 50% "discussion" i started, it was an overexaggertion to show that i would take the crit over the ap anytime.

now that some numbers you were so horny about mesi it seems that crit>str is gonna be confirmed (to some extend)

I think your 5-6% are pretty close to reality.

edit: If you take Prosimet and Bananamilk you get a difference of 5,74% crit and 9 top end.

I understood, but it was over-overexaggerated to the point where it simply made no sense at all

Also, I'm leaning towards the crit-based build aswell atm, seeing as 9 more topend is barely anything, around 30 more damage with a slam/mortal crit. I will try the crit set as soon as I get my second stendel and a few quest items, and then decide which set I'll be mainly using

Enrage - Spell - World of Warcraft

is the only reason why crit is more viable since the dmg you lose in attack power you gain back with that buff

Just look into that deeply enough and you will find Critical Strike Rating to be of more use than Attack Power in the current state of this bracket (F2P especially).

Judging from your avy and sig, it looks like you might just have the biggest Asian fetish on the board! hehe

In his signature, look to the top left corner and you will see three posters. The middle poster is actually what his signature is all about.
