You know, my post was pretty short, did you really not read the whole thing?

I said "Most likely insane" because he postulated that 4 RC > 1MC or 25CA.

BTW, i can't think of a fight i have to joust in RoK. But if I did come across one, I have a set of ranged gear i put on.

Yeah, I read the whole thing kthnx.
The highlighted portion made it sound to me like you weren't lumping yourself in the group of assassins who fire many bow shots. /shrug

I guess when/ if/ what you joust in RoK will depend on the raid makeup and how your own guild fights certain encounters. Just know I find myself firing off my bow more than I ever did in EoF and even picked up some ranged items like the Traitors Crown for minimum dkp to use in some situations.

To each his own.

Well also keep in mind that the OP is not even 80 yet, so there is no way in hell he is in VP. I'm only in T2 raiding myself.

I was not saying i don't step back for the bow shots, but jasinner only mentioned ranging, jousting, and kiting, so i assumed HE was not part of the assassins who do that. Of course I step back for bow shots when the rest of my CAs are down, how else could I figure out how much ranged crit would help in that situation? You think other assassins are sending me their log files so i can study their parses?

well I'm 79.8 now and I have only done T1 so far.
I only use my ranged when my CAs are down/kiting a mob because tank fell/a rare ranged fight in raiding. I am guessing VP would have a lot more jousting and such. But when it comes to a ranged fight, i'd rather just equip my ranged gear. I was looking for the on average better talisman, I doubt I'll be doing t4 anytime soon if ever.
I still need to make my choice, haven;'t claimed reward.
With the band/ganak/nax(not a great ring, but easy to get)
I get 10str 42sta 1mc 25ca

the 4RC is decent and the 52int is nice for poisons.

leaning towards the band still unless someone can give an convincing argument.
