    if anyone can help me out to put the images ^ ^ '

    For PVE stick with Swash.
    For PVP I would say 2/2 set with MA & Fey Set

    Short version - For PvP, not sure. For PvE 4/4 Swash is MUCH better than any combination of 2/2.

    I see a lot of people going 2x 2/2 and while it may have use in PvP (I wouldn't really know, never crunched the numbers) it is completely pointless in PvE... so much so that anyone doing it intentionally is stat padding their gear score to get into runs/epeen/whatever or has so little understanding of the gear that they think the 450 GS is more important than the harder to measure 4/4 bonuses.

    Though to be completely honest some may consider swash too costly to get (and/or too hard now that DD is BoP) and be taking 2x 2/2 as an alternative... I haven't crunched numbers on 2x 2/2 vs the 4/4 of the other 2 sets. I can say for certain, however, that 4/4 swash is superior to 2x 2/2 of any combination of the sets (not including the Faywild one, wasn't out when I checked this).

    The Swash 4/4 is basically the equivalent of 1014 GS since its up almost all the time. Take the 450 hit on your GS but do an equivalent of 564 GS more damage? Yes please.

    PvE -> 4/4 Swash
    PvP -> 4/4 Skulker (great for pve too)

    Currently I am running a 2x 2/2 because I just havent had any luck finding any Swash pieces. Sitting at a 12.5k gs with lesser vorpal. The only rogue that ever outdamages me in any T2 is an equally geared/skilled TR with Swash 4/4 and Vorpal/G-Vor

    So I have to agree that Swash is still king when used by the right player.

    Not really experienced or good but im liking master duelist 4 set for pvp, as with sly n cos u can get ur encounters up pretty fast, specially good is combining shadow strike with itc. stealth... cos away then close in for a slychain and pop itc by when itc falls shadow is up again to regain stealth and start over.

    This right here. I can't give you the exact numbers, but time and time again, skulker armor is easily the best set in pvp, and swash is the best in pve, with skulker coming in a close second (if you have the 25% extra crit sev feat specced anyways). Do NOT underestimate the power of 25% extra stealth coming from skulker armor. I get 2 full DF off in 1 stealth bar and have time to shadow strike before stealth ends. Other than that, the extra power and recovery from swash set is extremely useful.
