Greger_Lundqvist Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 4 pieces give my HiB 8% more damage, i'm "guessing" that does not apply to the Mag bolt. The reason i'm asking is because i was told by various people in my guild to keep the old set pieces for now until i can replace them, but if thay are of no further use i might as well ditch 2 pieces and replace with more mainstat.

For Gunnery it is still very usefull since HiB hits like a truck when fully proc'ed. I'd keep it until u can replace with the new one. Assault benefits slightly from the charged bolt crit % as well when you're not in Gunnery spec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peachbrah Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 so would it be a dps increase for both specs to run 2 set pieces each of the new and the old? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinslayer Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 so would it be a dps increase for both specs to run 2 set pieces each of the new and the old? For IO at least, with the vastly diminished usage of PS in the rotation, the 6pc is better than 15% more crit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I was talking only having 2 pieces of the new set bonus, and if it would be a dps increase just to run that with the old 2 piece instead of the entire old 4 piece.

Can actually run the old 4-piece alongside the new 2-piece - im currently doing that on my vanguard till I get my 6-piece. Just get a belt and bracer and guaranteed it will never conflict with old bonus's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinslayer Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Oh I was talking only having 2 pieces of the new set bonus, and if it would be a dps increase just to run that with the old 2 piece instead of the entire old 4 piece. Ohh right right. For IO the old 4pc is 100% useless so 2 of both is definitely an upgrade. Arsenal the old 4pc is probably better because the new 2pc doesn't add that much. Assuming you don't have access to new bracer/belt armorings for whatever reason since you were talking about mixing 2/2.
