I've always had a issue with my weapon adornments.

I use vampiric piths cause they proc more often, and they do seem to stack from having them on both weapons, I can easily see alot more procs in ACT.

but, they dont do a whole lot of damage.

so I always look over other adornments wondering if they are better.

dot procs, bigger single damage procs - problem is, they only proc 1 time per minute, versus 2 with a vampiric pith.
so its hard to really say it would be worth it. worst of all, its a expensive thing to try, if it doesnt pay off, 6 plat per pith on average.

I was hoping someone had some insight, or suggestions on piths to try or something along those lines. something that works well for them.

I did some testing on this about a year ago. I found the dual Vamp Piths to be the best.

Two reasons the Piths are better:
1. You get a heal. While this is not a factor in a raid, it can help a lot when soloing. Especially if you have three pieces of T-2 gear and T-3 gear, Vitality breach poison; you can heal the crap out of yourself with just procs.

2. You recieve slightly higher DPS. IMO, the DPS gain is minimal, if I recall correctly it was on average about 5 - 10 DPS ... which is minimal as a raiding scout, but it was higher on average.

This information is a year old ... so someone correct me if this does not hold true anymore, but I wanted to make sure it was right back in the day so I spent plenty of plat and time against the wall in KJ auto attacking.

Dual vamps is the best for dps, however depending on your guild. if you dont always have a chanter in group. then for the loss of 10 dps a phantom pith on your main hand will gain you much more dps, esp on fights like mynzak etc...

tbh all adornments after the changes have become pretty meh but you can get a lil improvement if you're lacking in something, for instance.

low hit rates = + piercer / slash could be usefull if your off hand is a slash weap and it's hit rates are bad.


low mana in raid= phantom handle they generate ok mana heals.


small dps boost = vamp for me at least we're talking 5 dps. they erally took a hit with the changes.


better dps boost(imo) = double 2% spell crit. sure the gear procs won't crit anymore but our poisens still seem to crit also PoM/potm, death blow and any random proc you might recive from a squish.

but like i said before none of this options will give a big boost of any sort.

Assassins no longer use any type of spell based damage thus spell crit is useless.

I adorned my mythical with vampiric handle as the main hand weapon theoretically hits more often which is why the damage increaser is best left there. I adorned my off hand weapon with a power proc adornment just to help manage power.

If power is a big issue for you then you would be better off adorning both weapons with the power proc adornment.

lol ok

do you use ACT?

I use the 3% parry one because I don't care about 30 dps and I want the highest avoid possible to laught at the tanks when there's nothing to do
