Sash of pain vs.belt of opportunity ?

Hope that its called that, the belt with + to accuracy obviously.

Anyway, I just did the trash in palace for the first time in like a month and my dps seemed lower, but out of general laziness thought I would ask you other top end guys if you have tested the 2 vs. each other for dps. If no one has then I'll test it the next couple weeks if I cant get out of the trash and let you know.

And yes Faltor it was under 11k

lol

Not going from experience but going just from comparing the two...

Using Belt of opporunity you have traded a bit of STR, 5dps and 5 double attack for 7 melee crit. All other stats mean jack-shit to your dps. I assume you were duel-weilding palace trash so not the best tradeoff if you ask me.

As for the proc, well you get an extra 800 dps for the first 20% of the mobs health but 800 less for the last 40%. Between 40 and 80 is pretty much the same.

Taking all of this into account, Sash of pain s slightly better for trash, assuming you are duelwield

He's got the wrong belt name.

For anything hard where your hit-rate is god awful, the other belt is far superior to the Sash of Pain.

I use the belt of the noble warrior.

I havent seen the noble warrior drop yet, woot for 6 glade protector rings! But I am really torn if I should take the belt or let DPS have it. Everything we do now relies more on DPS, less on me living.

Retardedly good for me, but it's not a "critical item", I already have all of those. Seems most MTs take it to get it over with I guess tho. But yeah overall I would say the accuracy is king shit, specially on mobs where autoattack is hoving around 55-60%, but even on trash that 5% is superior to Sash of Pain dmg.

Pantz our brigand has Sash of Pain and Belt of Opportunity you mentioned and the Sash of Pain consistently outparses it. Kinda sad but i guess they gotta make a couple items no one fucking wants.

gotta remember, Brigands have a much better to hit rate then us guards, Mine is usually around 85% on my guard. But my brigand that i have it is usually around 97+%

Ya wrong name sorry, I meant the belt of the noble warrior. I was solely asking for the trash runs and not on contested etc. I'll parse a few runs out to get a better feel of the spred between the 2 dps vs. dps.
