Terrored Grips

Anyone using this? +3% encounter power damage looks good, but the -2500 recovery seems like a steep price. If my back-of-the-envelop calculation is correct, this is like gaining only 1200-ish power. Seems better to just change out some recovery gear for power gear and not take any hit to overall stats.

    If you use dragon heart as primary you can afford these since you will have more than enough recovery.
    If u have recovery around 10k+ you can afford these probably as well.

    3% damage ISNT the same as 1200 power. not even close. that's true if you are at 0 power. at 60k power, 3% DPS is the same as about 3k power. at a much more reasonable 240k power, for endgame dungeons, 3% more DPS is the same as 8.4k power.

    So yeah.

    My power is 29K standing outside of campfire. I came up with the 1.2K power just by taking the piece on/off. But good point, I had not consider power sharing. So these gloves are good on DPS with the right companion setup and in a party with a power sharing ACDC.

    Why is the IL of that piece 510 and not 540 like the others from the hunts?

    Because of the -2500 Recovery - something the other "+% damage to ranged / melee / encounters etc" items don't have. It's definitely an interesting item - good power boost, at the cost of power recharge speed.

    CW: Spell Twisting. Who cares about Recovery?
    I'm not looking for forgiveness, and I'm way past asking permission. Earth just lost her best defender, so we're here to fight. And if you want to stand in our way, we'll fight you too.

    Devs could you please look at this item? Its not game breaking by any means and fits the formula for Barovia gear if the negative turns to positive and the IL is raised.

    Which is why they made it IL 510 instead of 540. Cryptic just can't help shafting the HR class.

    So, they'd be perfect for Archers, then?
