Cenla_Saint Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 So I'm running a dirty fighting GS and I love it. PVP is so much better for me now that I learned how to use my DCDs better. I do have a question regarding gearing. So Sink over on Dulfy wrote a guide for virulence sniper. They recommend 45% crit, 105% accuracy, and 10% alacrity. They say to use enhancents to achieve this with most of your augments being the power type Meanwhile over on TORcommunity a guide has been posted using Bant's theory crafting formulas. The stat goals are pretty much the same it seems but they suggest using crit and alacrity augments to reach the goal. Which should I be following? There is no more pvp only stat (forgot the name of it) so would pve a guide be useful now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And make sure to go to the bolster thing on the vanguard ship to see where your stats are in warzones. Your accuracy is already bolstered to 104% in warzones, so adding to that is just pointless.

EnzoForMe Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) You should run 1 accuracy augment to put you at 105% as a sniper. After that, I use a mix of mastery, crit, and alacrity augments My key stats out of a warzone: 102.36% acc 41.62% Crit 11.17% Alacrity 3400-3691 damage Inside a warzone: 104.93% Acc 45.13% Crit 12.53% Alacrity 3846-4137 damage I would shoot for those ranges (plus or minus a couple percent doesn't really matter) using a mix of alacrity/crit enhancements and alacrity/crit/mastery augments (+1 accuracy augment) I use 230 relics, enhancements, earpiece and a mix of 208-236 for my gear. At 145 command rank, I still haven't gotten my 230 armoring for my boots or legs which would be laughable if it wasn't so pathetic. If you can focus on hitting the accuracy, 40-45% crit, 10-12% alacrity, you should be in good shape. Dirt Fighting benefits even more than other specs from crit/alacrity augments. Crit gives you higher energy regen and synergizes with some of the surge bonuses you have in your tree while alacrity makes your dots tick faster (and the usual making your abilities come off CD faster).
