Updated Consolidated Gear Thread

My girl has been dealing with me littering the desktop with cut and paste lists of gear since DoF.

Flame me if you will ... but TBH i'd rather the Str crafted ring + Korsha RDatk over a aggro whoreing 1300 proc ring.... unless im missing something here that sounds like a bittersweet repair bill

what does it proc ... 2 or 3 times in a 1 minutes fight for 2k...i hate math but roughly i'd think thats 6k dmg / 60 secs or 100dps.
Does that outweigh 2 or 3 Rda when u should be autoing for 6k+ as it is?

[Jagerr]

I put it in the list anyway as it is a viable source of dps. Most tanks playing at Azleya's level obviously can deal with some insane dps so im sure the proc is actually not that huge of a detriment.

[TheRuin3r]

im not saying its bad ... i'm just debating about the lesser of 2 evils.... RDA ring w/ no str and no r crit or a bad ass proc on a ring with no rcrit/rda.... is there any on it? i know they've been tweekin with loot

also - as far as a tank who coulnt manage that ... i'd put a 7mm through my skull if i played with that sort of ... upper eschelon... tank but as far as raw dps i think the rda or rcrit yields more dmg... if im wrong someone post numbers / tell me how and why .. and my ass will pick up that ring for min dkp ahahaha

Lol at anyone who thinks 2 times per minute really means literally 2 times per minute. Listed proc rates are meaningful for relative comparisons only, not absolute evaluations. In reality, shit fires off a ton more than is listed (for a ranger, at least). The proc on that ring is the same rate and almost the same damage as the Sash of Pain proc, which does, I believe, about 180-200 dps on my zone parses (note: my 2.0-listed procs are 2.4 because I'm typically grouped with a dirge). That completely flat-out owns anything else available for the ring slot. It also has CA damage and a couple secondary crit types, which are minor in comparison to the proc but still worth noting.

Tanks can man the fuck up on the extra aggro.

[TheRuin3r]

well - that's all i wanted. i'll pick it up fo sho then ... forgot about aggro reduction and hate xfers factoring in. as far as that 200 ... thats fuckign substantial!!

Get peaceful link from your coercer and you're save.

It has been brought to my attention that mabey some of the items ive listed here might lead to some confusion as my aim was to make an all encompasing list with little reguard to what gear is better or best suited. I just had any item that a ranger might make use of listed. If you think an item should be taken off the list feel free to let me know and we can make a note next to the item letting the potential user of this list know that there are easily obtainable items that are better for that particular slot.

That ring has dropped a grand total of Once since SoH was added. Which sadly is Once more then the Aria that is still at zero. Fuck my guilds fucked up drop luck

[Safana]

Done no calculation on that ring, but its crap for sure:
\aITEM -1365173422 -462955226:Ring of Rancor\/a

If you kill avatars, you prolly have done some VP runs, and even if you are extremely unlucky on hellfired and/or set you wont take this shit:
\aITEM 1262135672 -406859529:Wristplates of the Dark Lord\/a

If you start raiding you prolly have a polished jade band and a str imbued ring, both better than this:
\aITEM 1593072065 1805470153:Disarming Band\/a

Melee DA and CA dmg, WTF?
\aITEM 5977568 1307174809:Lava-forged Chainmail\/a

Just a few comments about some pieces ;)
