VP Set

Vydar · 06-18-2008, 04:21 PM

I gotta decide which pieces to start bidding on... is the 4 set bonus worth sacrificing other pieces to get?

2 more triggers and a bonus 275 damage... is it worth getting 4 pieces for? Obviously gloves and boots are awesome, if so, what other 2 pieces should I work towards?

i believe the damage on triggers is bugged, because my average hit is still basicly the same on blazing manifestation. Terra knows for sure though.

im using helmet, glove, boot, shoulder

waiting to get thet robe and replace it with helmet and then put back that instanced hat with crit and spell dmg.

Hat? You would really choose that shitastic hat over the Hood of Dark Dealing? I say Shoulders, Gloves, Pants, Boots

When my robe drops again from Trak i'll actually go with robe, boots, gloves, shoulders..and replace my set pants with lava channeling pants.

whats so good about the vp pants vs 4 reuse from t2?

I'm using hat, robe, gloves and boots. Since the damage part of blazing manifestation doesn't get added, I'm thinking of dropping the 4 piece bonus for some more crits and spelldamage or smth. Just that there's nothing to drop if nothing drops from mobs, 0 soh hats, 0 hoshkar robes, 0 maestro summoner robes. Random is great :/

Oh and vp set pants are the suck, one of the 2 crappy pieces from the set :P Gene spliced or leviathan sealed legs for the win.

Nothing, they are trash...the only reason i wear mine atm over my leviathan pants is because it's my only 4th piece for the bonus 2 triggers to BM until my trak robe drops again. And i'd get the shoulders over the hat because the Dark hood from SoH is easy to get (if it drops ;p) and a much better choice for that slot.

in all seriousness though, they made one of the trademark pieces utterly trash...the hell good is bonus triggers to Magma seed and an extra 4% power, over the 7 spell crit predecessor? I really wish they would stop putting magma seed bonus triggers on our damn set pieces...They did on EoF set-pieces as well. Who would put AA pts in the trigger chances as well over the other choices?

They could've added a focus effect to anything else really, bonus dmg to effigy, crystal blast, torrent..or shorten the reuse on something, anything is better than magma seed focus and 4% power...lame
