digimass Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 So here we are again with new BIS stuff... Up till this the pvp relics were bis, and it wasn't too painful to group with friends and grind the comms for it. When we got to the new one though, I went with the kinetic proc, and the power clicker. I missed the relic of boundless ages, as i could decide when I wanted to burn something. The matrix has always been something i stick in to adjust my numbers too. How is it working out for other arsenal mercs for dps on this? I catch myself keeping the matrix on the bottom and swapping out the power for bosses and the proc for trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkForster Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) Dread Guard power click and kenitic (for arsenal) are currently BIS . Matrix is way down on list below even Battle master static power. Edited December 11, 2012 by DarkForster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthBloodloss Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 5 main stat (or power) points give you 1 damage point (approximately) Add up how much damage the matrix cube gives you. Im pretty sure its not as much as the PvP +100 power relic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Arsenal Merc has been tested pretty thoroughly and the above two come out on top as long as you use the power every cool down.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dipstik Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) 120*0.23= 27.6 and 35% crit at 75% surge gives an additional 7.25 for a total of 34.85 additional damage per hit. assuming you are hitting the target every 2 seconds this is 17.4dps the kinetic hits for 218 with the 35% armor debuff once every 7.5 seconds or so, and can crit. this gves 218*(1+0.35*0.75)/7.5= 36.7 dps and thats without taking the dps from +47 power into account! 47*.23*(1+.75*.35)=13.65 damage per hit so 6.825 for a total of 43.525 this is all assuming 35% crit chance and 75% surge Edited December 12, 2012 by dipstik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WannaSpoon Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 While we're on the topic, is this the same for healers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phasersablaze Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 While we're on the topic, is this the same for healers? If the above math is correct then yes. The extra healing gained from power is roughly the same, and remember the healing proc is much much more than the damage proc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WannaSpoon Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Ok thanks, now i need to remember to hit the clicky when it's up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raekor Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 While we're on the topic, is this the same for healers? I haven't seen anybody agree on healers or tanks yet. Healing proc goes for about 6K over a 6 minute fight, so you would need to see what that equals vs power. Most are saying DG Relic of Boundless Ages and EWH Relic of Boundless Ages though.
