Megatfx Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) Minor editing. Shows damage of a fully itemized Carnage Marauder. 1v1, 1v2 clips, few survivability clips, and an unedited Voidstar at the end which I queued solo for, 0 deaths, 834 DPS at the end of the match (Rotated from side to side, picture perfect WZ). You'll see a 7K force scream crit as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Min-maxing There is no clicking, backpedaling or keyboard turning.

DkSharktooth Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) Do you think the Advanced Might Hilt 26 > War Hero's Rage Hilt 26 for min max? 68str 49end vs 36str 34end 50exp Edited September 11, 2012 by DkSharktooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus in 1.4 we get new hilts anyway. Edited September 11, 2012 by Megatfx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Yui- Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Nice video. Few things I would like to point out: 1. Please show HP bars, allows the viewers to get a sense of the competition you're facing. 2. I kind of disagree with your min/max stats. Getting consistent 5k Force Screams is fun, but most of your damage is still going to come from Massacre, not to mention Ravage and Dispatch. So, crit rating is too low, imo, and you could probably deal more DPS with a bit more crit. But, nice video, and should be an eye-opener on Force Scream damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WH Hilt just has +50exp -15end -32str . I cannot logically believe that the +50exp > +32str +15end unless my numbers are off somehow. Please elaborate why you feel WH Hilt > Might Hilt. Thanks.

Please elaborate why you feel WH Hilt > Might Hilt. Thanks. Because you'd have to give up orange belt/bracers and go with War Hero ones which are itemized terribly unless you want to go around with 1100 expertise. 1200 expertise is ideal, anymore than that and you start sacrificing too much damage for little returns. Any less than 1200 expertise you're sacrificing too much PvP bonus damage and damage reduction. I picked my method because then I hit the sweet spot of 1208 expertise. Okay I've tried a few configurations by simply modifying our gear layout using my character builder: Default settings 618 Bonus Damage 1208 Expertise 25% Crit 19026 HP 78.80% Surge 2x War Hero Hilt with Orange Belt and Bracers with 2 expertise crystals to offset the expertise loss: 590 Bonus Damage 1130 Expertise 28.66% Crit 19259 HP 78.80% Surge Now let's try 2x War Hero Hilts with War Hero Belt/Bracers with 2x Power Crystals: 592.0 Bonus Damage 1188 Expertise 26.32% Crit 18676 HP 78.80% Surge The better combination of the two seems to be the 2x War Hero Hilts with War Hero Belt/Bracers with 2x Power Crystals but I don't like how much bonus damage I lose, dropping below 1200 expertise and dropping below 19k HP just to say I am using Advanced Might Hilts.

Megatfx Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 I even took it a step further, now the only thing I've modified is just adding the War Hero hilts and dropping down to 1108 Expertise. Bonus Damage 632.4 Critical Chance25.37% Critical Multiplier78.80% Expertise 1108 19344 HP So I gain 300 HP, 14 bonus damage but lose 100 expertise. 1208 expertise is: 22.84% Damage Boost 18.59% Damage Reduction 1108 Expertise is: 21.43% Damage Boost 17.65% Damage Reduction So someone with 1208 expertise is going to hit 1.41% harder, but against someone with 1108 expertise they are going to hit over 2% harder because of their lack of expertise. 14 bonus damage isn't 2%. Hope that clears it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so when? I actually pushed it off my bar because I've never found a situation with carnage where I would prioritize it over massacre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
