rotfish Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I run a full tactics vanguard on raids with my guild and so far I'm doing some pretty good dmg. I have never ran assault post 2.0 so I don't know how bad the nerf was for our dmg in pve for assault. Is there any dps vanguards that have tried both tactics and assault and raid ops on a regular basis that could just tell me straight up which one is better for dps ops vanguard? thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assault isn't great for PvE anymore. Give it a try though. I've had some mixed parses, and usually get tops with a hybrid or full tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotfish Posted June 24, 2013 Author Share Posted June 24, 2013 I tried both in tfb and s&v and with max crit and surge tactics is far better then assault. I just seem to crit a lot more in my rotation and it seems assault relys too much on a proc, crit ,hib . Tactics has more abilities that crit more especially a free crit hib. and no ammo stockstrike. My flame pulse crits for about 6k im not sure if ap can do that.... tactics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNegotiator Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I've tried both and I like tactics also. Instead of dots you get high energy cell and a large, elemental-based single shot. Assault is not an option at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nezyrworks Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Sniper. I have a sniper for a long time now apart from PT, merc, commando and VG. I know you want to fix the PT/VG to work better than it does, and i do agree it would want a small boost. Playing ranked since 2.0 as VG and i must say, that your best bet is to get used to about 3-5 specs and rotate them to focus on different objectives. It works, and for me it is even more fun, because i can play various builds. And no - there are some games that you can approach with specific spec, and become one of the key players for your team.

Keypek Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Tactics for the trash and hybrid for the bosses. If you don't want to switch then hybrid all the way through for max dps potential on bosses with still great aoe dps for trash... can still mindlessly spam on trash in hybrid just got to regen between pulls instead of never having to worry about it in tactics.
