Default Weapon adornments

Right now I have the power add adornments in both weapons.

I am wondering if this is a good idea. I am giving up DPS for power, the question is how much

What are the better damage adornments, I hear +5 piercing. Although I don’t know why +5 is better then +12 piercing.

What about the damage proc adornments...

How much dps am I giving up with power procs and if I where to put in damage adornments; which are the best ones, or best one.

First off the difference between +5 piercing and +12 piercing damage is just that. The +5 piercing adds to your piercing skill allowing you to hit mobs better, its not a damage adornment. +12 piercing dmg adds 12 dmg to each hit of your weapon. I cant recall if its always +12 or if it changes with debuffs and stuff, Ive never used em.

Best dmg proc is probably the life tap adornment, higher proc rate.

You wont lose much DPS, I use one each of power tap and life tap atm. Depending on your power situation in a raid or group you might be better off with both life tap. If I had the cloak of woven leaves I would replace all my power proc adornments.

I run with a +12 dmg in main hand and a power tap in off hand.

The +dmg adornment deals dmg from 12 up to 18. That's applied to every swing with main hand, CAs included (and also all the procs from the Planar Orb of the Wanderer).

Zonewide the +12 dmg adornment did more dmg than the power tap adornment with a dirge + templar...at least for me~.

Yeah, which is why maybe it deals more than +12. Although it does seem to cap at +18.

DOH, that's nasty - i thought the +12dmg would increase both the min/max dmg of a weapon, actually raising it's dmg rating :>

like all damage bonus (bane dmg ,magic dmg and such) , they are added after the damage calculation . Not on base damage.

I personally like the power tap and the +5 pierce adorns. The one that I am caught up on personally is the neck adorn. Do I want the +1% Crit or the +10 DPS?? Think the +1% crit.

I also went for 1 powertap, 1 +5 piercing and since you mentioned it, for the +1 crit for neck item. No idea really which one of the two is better, but for me personally I thought crit was better, since I get plenty of DPS selfbuffed and in raid.
