    I accounted for the 4% crit on the TT100, hence im smarter than you. b:victory

    Actually if you were smarter than me you'd realize G13 is a waste of money, you want either TT100 or G15. And we all know TT100 is pretty much a dead end. Lunar is better just for the fact you can resell it when you do go G15 and recoup most of your costs. Anyone with half a brain knows that G15 is truly end-game. I mean at your level if you can't afford to get G15 and afford to reroll it a few times, you must be pretty fail or pretty lazy, right?

    unless you get a lucky 2 -.05 or +20 attack level g 15 is only better when sparked otherwise the extra speed on the g 13 weapons actually puts them slightly ahead

    @ the overly agressive fem bm who badly needs a pad

    you still have not disproved my statement...just rabidly fapped to your aperently large sum of $

    do so and i'll care

    @ whoever mentioned crit haveing diminised returns in the abstract... damn you did not want that being known by the bm fourum at large >.<

    Well yeah... highest damage at max attack speed is best. Thanks for that shocking revelation.

    I made a note of the cost on the G13 nirvana being cheaper than TT100. Lunar are good for 'the time being' and a good start to an interval build, but its always worth aiming higher if you want to commit to an endgame build. Theres the obvious issue with them often not being 2 socket and being the lowest damage of the mentioned -0.1int weps.

    I personally prefer the idea of spending money on G15 axes. Guess thats another debate on a players personal preference to the role and build of their BM. Its not that hard to farm the raps / money for a G15 if you got the time and motivation to commit to it.

    If you were smarter than me, you wouldnt have gone and got yourself banned previously, eh? b:chuckle

    G15 with one -0.05 interval add will greatly outdamage G12/G13 if all are at 5.0 sparked.

    TT100 is only end-game if you aren't going G15. Lunar is not significantly worse than TT100. The cost difference isn't validated, IMO. Yes, with Lunar you need to be lucky and get 2 sockets to make them comparable to TT100. I was lucky, I crafted mine with 2 sockets, so I don't see the issue.

    Nah, I'm just not going to kiss moderator *** when I see them acting stupid. I'll call them on it, and I did. :P

    its pretty easy to notice the 1st time you use a crit buff that takes you over 20%

    you can apply the same formula to crit that you do to attack level for finding the point where its just not worth it anymoreb:surrender

    K so I just saw the Lunar recast on a male BM. BM holds them in a weird angle so that part of the claws cut into the arm. It also looks kinda oversized. Lunar recast looked much better on a Barb. I think I'm taking Lunar recast out of my option. Since I'm not swimming in raptures, it'll be better to save some money for recasting axes. Now it comes down to Lunar vs TT100... I was thinking about TT100 but then Hippie's point is valid. *sigh*

    Because look is everything? Have you see how much ppl spend on fashion on this game? b:shocked

    If the G13 fists had interval, I would probably go for those instead. I would hate to spend 500 mil on a pair of G15 then stuck with no interval adds for months.

    exactly how i feel if g13 fist gave me a -10 add on i would go with fist anyday cause the claws r too big for a bm but look nice on a barb ^^

    *Sigh* here's where I'm at, currently 2 socketed lunar claws +5. Only have cheap imac shards in them atm because I'm still unsure if I'm keeping them. Since I gave up the idea of nirvana claws, I'm looking at either sticking with the claws and shard them with gems and refine them or spend ~80 mil more for TT100. I'm probably stopping at +10 with either fists/claws and work on recast axes. From everything so far in this thread, sticking with my claws is the "right" choice... someone give me one last push before I bind them?

    dont bind them the point of lunars over tt 100 and g 13 nirvana is that you can resell it at some point

    But that's the thing, if I'm reselling lunar later, I won't spend much refining and sharding. I'm talking about making it my endgame.

    if your going for HA then invest in some 1st recast nirvana damage is way better till +12

    you did get lucky on sockets so if your going hybrid you could use the lunars as your 4 aps pk weapon after you get 2nd recast in that case yes it would be woth it to bind

    The whole point of going Lunar is so that they're not bound, IMO.

    If you're not going for G15, then TT100 would be better for PvP endgame. Lunar for PvE. However the difference is minimal...

    I haven't bound my Lunar because I will eventually farm the 150 raptures I need for G15.

    And I'm also waiting for whatever the new expansion might bring. It could be possible that some or all Nirvana is superseded.

    that's what i said, excluding the hp because i overlooked it

    cv claws are definitely better in pk because of the debuff, and without element stones i wouldn't use hh100 because it's basically the same without the debuff. i choose element because it already does more base damage, mixing element hurts a lot more than patk for them

    also, crit doesn't have 'diminishing returns'. who in the hell came up with that? honestly? when you get +1% crit, it's +1% crit; not a fraction of that 1%. get 99 and use dark glacier, plx

    b:bye

    The less crit you have the more effective additional crit is...

    Getting +4% crit at base 1% crit is more effective than getting +4% crit at base 21% crit.

    1000 * 1.01 = 1010
    1000 * 1.05 = 1050
    1000 * 1.21 = 1210
    1000 * 1.25 = 1250

    1050/1010 = 1.03960396
    1250/1210 = 1.03305785

    Umm... Soul Infect is relatively worthless in PK. The 4% crit + slightly higher average dps from TT100 is better for PvP.

    I guess what I'm facing is if the extra difference in TT100 vs 2 socketed claws is worth the ~80 mil extra I'll have to pay. Your are right about the expansion tho. Hopefully it'll be out soon.

    Well, they did state new gear is coming out. Perhaps something to bridge the G15/Warsoul gap that's more obtainable than 9jun.

    What's your expected end game? TT100 is great, however it's a dead end path, IMO. Spending all that money to recast is a waste. CV isn't bound so you can resell it after getting a good reroll on G15. The decision isn't really so hard, you just need to figure out your long term goal, IMO.
