Question for teniency patch?

Well, obviously I'm gonna be talking pvp, so remeber that. :P (And im talking normals btw)
As a guardian fighter, which weapon enchant would you take? I have 21% crit chance, so that means something will crit at least once in two rotations. But...teniency ****s crit up. So you could either say vorps are a must (to maximize crit so that it will do more damage through ten) or just go another enchant (if you don't wanna depend on that 1/5 chance.)
Other choice...Plague fire. The tooltip says fire damage, burn, and resis ignored. It will stack 3 times. Does everything stack? Cuz that would mean a 30% damage increase ( -10% res times 3). I already have 25%, which will mean i'll have unmitigated damage maybe?
So vorp or plague for next pvp patch?

    vorpal is a waste of ad with your crit chance, at 20% perfect vorpal increases damage by some 10% on average, terror, pf etc should be better. vorpal is for classes with high crit chance, and even then other enchants might become better with tenacity

    Forget what burkaanc said, vorpal is the best weapon enchant BY FAR. Whenever I see a GF with another enchant I have to ask myself if he's <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> or no.

    Because a GF (with Plague Fire) sitting in the face off a mob, debuffing all of them through Threatening Rush, Enforced Threat and limited AOE damage from Cleave won't benefit the deeps crew?

    I've run a Vorpal and was not impressed. GWFs that have run with me with my Plague Fire noticed a decrease in the time taken to kill whatever we are attacking because I keep them debuffed. Add in that I give them combat advantage and things go down fast.
    PSA: You don't need to grind Spinward Rise for your Elemental artifact main hand if you have some AD lying around. You can craft it via the Tyranny of Dragon's campaign screen.

    Well, because I want both sides of the story (like the good stuff about vorpal). I am currently running a lesser pf. I am saving up to at least one mill to buy either. The best thing about it is 20 damage...not very impressive. However, I am also doubtful about vorp cuz when teniency start, then crits will not strike for as much.

    Best GF Choices:

    1) Plague Fire - Debuff, Team DPS increase and DoT.
    2) Flaming - Highest DPS choice for GF due to % weapon damage and % DoT.
    3) Terror - Burst Debuff, Team DPS increase and descent damage. The "cheap mans" Plague fire.
    4) Bronzewood - Ignore % of target's armor, marked, but the duration/uptime is questionable.
    5) Lightning - High DPS choice with % weapon damage in chained lightning. Only useful in Greater or Perfect.

    For sure, test both. Just in my opinion due to our low crit chance you won't benefit from a Vorpal like a CW/GWF/HR/TR would and thus would get better utility out of something like a Plague Fire, Terror or any enchant that boosts your actual damage.

    1) Best one out of this list imo.
    2) More damage than pf but no debuff stacking 3x. Means less damage on encounters.
    3) Heard it doesn't work right?? Is this a rumor or not?
    4) Plague fire is basically the same thing (ignores armor) PLUS dot. So this one is out.
    5) I've never seen anyone use this for pvp.
