Or can anyone confirm this proc work even for Spell attack?

This proc works on any successful attack, melee or spell.

And its proc makes these and much other robes look bad if dps is what ur looking for.

SMR is not that great for summoners

its great for me, especially if it procs while Velium gift, PoM, PotM are running, allowing me to throw in atleast 3 more spells in the same period of time which all proc extra dmg.

Either way, must be a personal preference but for me choosing between all the robes available for me (skip most T5 stuff) it is an easy choice.

edit: and i wanna bet that SMR translates in a lot more dps then either of the 2 robes from op

if it works for you go ahead and use it.

the reason that it's better for sorc is that they have longer cast times and almost an extra hotbar of spells that do about as much dmg as our main nukes, they seldom use.

where as my necro only has one dmg spell up in my regular rotation thus increasing cast speed would only leaves me casting random spells/abilitys that don't really do too much for my dmg.

/agreed with Davngr.

+100% cast time would just leave me casting bullshit, or watching my timers refresh, either of which are no significant extra dps, while the Aramid robe *does* translate into quite some benefit.

I've tested them out and it the shiny robe sucks for necros we have a fast cast time as is.

SirAmoel · 03-27-2009, 07:10 PM

See? ;)

I can't believe people would even consider the SMR as a viable robe for a necro...

SirAmoel · 03-28-2009, 02:19 PM

Don't be silly, Sciomar. It's *very* viable, for our appearance slot.

U make it sound that i am stupid to wear smr instead of the 2 in op.
Lets compare those regarding only necro usefull stats, int excluded cos its softcapped mostly.

aramid robe: nice hitpoints/sta +2 crit mit, then 2 crit, 30 spelldmg, 4 disr.., and a nice dmg proc (anyone test that? id estimate it will be 75 of total dps)

Desert Prince: okay hitpoints, 3 crit, 25 spelldmg, and 5 cast speed (which some of u find less important cos "we cast already fast enough...")

smr: nice hitpoints/sta, 2 crit, 40 spelldmg, and a proc casting deathmarch...

so the only major difference here is the proc: a 75 dps dmg proc with some power to grp (since when is that important for dps) versus + 1crit & 5 spell haste versus a 100% spell haste proc (which guaranteed translates into more then 75 dps)

Casting bullshit spells when u have nothing else to cast will make them less bullshit and actually usefull, since each of them can proc a nice range of dmg procs on top of what little they already add.
Not sure about others but even when it procs i never run out of buttons to click, one more usefull then the other ofcourse.

And thrust me, i might not be able to put up numbers like some that are posted here on this forum, for the guild that i am in i can parse very necro worthy (even with the smr :P).
So i cant really understand why i am >dumb< for using it over those 2 other robes suggested here.

In all humbleness,
