Hello ive had my sin since 2013 and i regrettably kept taking breaks from this game and ive just said its enough. Currently i cant decide if my sin needs r9 weapon first or rr8 interval setup. Im a 3.33 base sage sin with g16 +7 as of now. I do my dailies including dfsp/jfsp and i was wondering if i could get any tips for my gear path so i can make the most out of my money.
My name is Harambe on etherblade.

    I think that largely depends on what your current goal is. PVE? PVP? Supremacy in either?

    Currently APS is not as important as it once was. Dungeons like jfsp have bosses that have anti-aps buffs which basically force assassins into DPH builds.

    If you are looking to throw money at anything right away, I would probably say r9, since r8r is completely chance based and therefore can be quite expensive for a gear set that may not suit your goals (since APS is not as widely applicable any longer and r8r isn't as tanky in PVP as it once was)

    That said, Ideally I would say wait it out until you know what your goal is. If APS is still your dream, the r94 gear I believe have builds available as well that allow APS AND DPH set ups that are additionally tanky in PVP. But if PVP is not your goal and you simply want to do damage PVE, I'd say go r9 daggers with g16.

    But... I'm not an assassin so :) Just opinons.​​

    Oh yeah im not too big into pvp,i would have to throw 1000s of dollars into the game to keep up. And ive already spent 150m in rerolls for int on my boots for r8r and i still want it just for tanky aps gear. Ill go for r9 first i have the rep just need the ring

    @teabagg has a good point. If your only goal is pve you will be able to do quite a bit with g16 once you are up to date on all of the other frills (passives , sky levels, cards, rb)

    I may be wrong in someones eyes but i definitely wouldnt spend time on r8r for tankiness in aps alone. Once you get passives and cards etc up to date youll already be a beast in most dungeons in aps.
