Is the lvl 80 legendary weapon actually worth getting? The level 74 one seems to give higher consistent damage at the cost of 1% crit.

Here's the comparison:
Lvl 74 Bloodpain Soulglaive
Mag Attk: 579~783
Mag Attk +56
Mag Attk +56
Vit +14~15

Lvl 80 Skyshaker Soulglaive
Mag Attk: 635~859
Crit +1%
Max Mag Attk +94
Vit +14~16

I currently have a +2 Bloodpain Soulglaive with a g9 and g8 sapphire shard in it so I'm guessing that would be my late game weapon all the way until 90? What's everyones thoughts or experience?

    80 has a much higher base, and if the weapon bonus stacks with added bonus, then 80 still is higher. Also, 80 "should be" higher grade than 74, and therefore "would have" higher refine bonus (in both damage and soulforce boost)...

    80 is nicer
    gets u more hp , has better refine , and better maxdmg( higher crits)

    I was wondering, will we ever get TT80 weapons?

    They have the same average damage before refines or shards, and ignoring critical hits, and they both boost your hp by the nearly the same amount.

    So the 80 refines slightly better and has that +1% critical hit. Which would be nice but I think a two socket 74 artifact would probably be better than a one socket 80 artifact with equivalent refines for any but outrageously high refines (I am assuming you would have decent sapphires).

    Who knows...Seeing as we have TT90~99 and even Warsoul spheres, I'd say unlikely.

    Just cause almost nobody has warsoul doesn't mean it doesn't exist b:chuckle
    It's mostly for people to look at and drool over while waiting for a Bounty Hunter squad b:laugh

    That's what I was thinking cause I have another +72 from the two shards. I'm only going to be refining to +3 or +4 at most. They need to make a PW-calculator for psychic.

    Warsoul sphere for psychic +50 attk level combined with white voodoo would make you nearly invincible.

    Is it possible to make TT99 btw? If I remember correctly...it needs the souledge from TT90 - and usually it says "If unbound can be decomposed to..." - now it's a gold gear, and TT gold should auto-bind shouldn't it?

    That's the point you make tt90 gold but not use it.

    I'm pretty sure you can take a gold item to armor / weapon to the Blacksmith and decompose it after having used it. Jut drag and drop. It wouldn't make much sense for someone to make a weapon they couldn't use and decompose later to make another.

    Lvl 74 weapon has more min damage than lvl 80 weapon and vice versa. My own opinion is stick with the 74 weapon if you already have it. But if you get a free mold for the lvl 80 soulsphere then you can go with that. But to buy a lvl 80 mold? I say it's not worth it.

    You can always get your best weapon in the game.
    The lvl 85 gold frost weapon which only goes for 25mil is really cheap and is the beast weapon you get till HH99 gold. This is because the Lunar is 95 and really does suck as it gives you crit.

    Along with this, its cheaper then your HH90 gold orb as that is a belial mat (Ancient devils soul) x2 which is roughly 36mil.

    Crit sucks?

    Since ur casting time is short u can guess that 6% of 0.5 (aqua), 0.6 (spirit) or 1 sec (earth vector) is so little, that u can call it nothing.
    A Psy isn't a wiz, and even most of the wizzies take crit in the first place.

    In my opinion a psy should be aiming for a high crit rate, every1 can do as he likes, but please give a simple explanation why this n that "sucks" for makin us able to understand. b:puzzled
