Hichitsuki-hime Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 well as a general rule vendor gear tends to kinda suck since it's not optimized =) not a single BiS mod or enhancement on vendor gear ever ./sadpanda lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go for a crafter, or better yet, a token drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aienir Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 The token 192 drop is an upgrade... I think its got 70 more power than the 186 comm crafted one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TACeMossie Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 (edited) Checked the piece in question, its definately bugged. The stats its supposed to give are: 276 Endurance 241 Willpower 96 Crit Rating 111 Alacrity Either way, just go craft a rating 186 implant with Power/Accuracy. Or go kill Nightmare Nefra for some dread master ones. Edited December 23, 2014 by TACeMossie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HostileNPC Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 OK I just double checked all the 192 implants sold on the (republic) Fleet. Here's what I found: Implants on all 4 Vendors DPS [Primary] 241 Endurance 276 power 96 Surge 111 Tank [Primary] 298 Endurance 206 shield 111 def 114 Other Healers [Primary] 241 Endurance 276 crit 96 Alacrity 111 Sage Healer [Primary] 124 Endurance 194 crit 48 Alacrity 111 All DPS get +724 stats. All Tanks get +729 stats. Healers (smugglers & troopers) get +724 stats Sage healers get +477 stats Edit doh you beat me. A 185 crafted implant is still going to be about 60 pts lower than a proper 192 and I'm afraid farming old ops won't be easy either. My guild is not a raiding guild and the ops group finder sucks That leaves me with spamming chat and trying to PuG it. No Thanks. also Accuracy is not going to do me any good as a healer. Thanks for the input. I guess I'll post a bug and hope it gets fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW Crafted 186 may have less stats, but its a case of 221 will/111 crit/power/102 Surge/Alac vs 241/96/111, as those are the only numbers that matter (HP Is especially bad as a sage healer because noble sacrifice is HP Based damage to yourself) In other words, its a loss of 14 stats from crafted to elite comms, but with crafted you get more choice. And if you go for Dread Masters? You get ~204 will / 141 crit/power / 102 Surge/alac (can't remember the exact numbers), which is a deficit of 1 from the elite comms vendor. Also nightmare nefra is a joke. Just dont stand in the circle, and make the tanks spin her at 15 stacks. Or you can go the easy way and kill sparky and hope for the best.
