I'm sure it all depends on what gear you have too, but has anyone done any testing behind the main hand temp adornments?

Normally I'll use the crit ones, but if there is multiple mob encounters(pretty much only voes) I'll use the double attack ones. Yesterday my a monk friend of mine says that he uses the 15dps ones. Since we don't get much dps mod and most of our dps comes from auto attack should I be using the dps ones? or stick to the crit ones?

It depends. If you got low DPS mod, get DPS ones. If you have low MC, get MC ones. Same thing with DA. I have all 3 on me at all times and use whatever is best for that situation.

Why DA on multiple mob encounters? I don't think DA can proc on AoE Attack?
Also, why the hell do you even use stuff like that in VoES? You should be more cheap, IMO!

actually, DA does proc on AoEs. i was in RE the other day testing some strategies on spell orders, and i noticed (using the Wis line for 1 hander, only because im a low lvl atm) that almost every AoE i shot out was DAing on not just the single mob i targeted but the others around me. So in turn, i believe DA will proc on AoEs =)

Yeah, I read that somewhere that you can da on an aoe. And I use them in instances because I don't get to play my swashy much so I like to get what practice I can in instances, if my swashy was my main I probably would be cheap

Wow, nice

Didn't know that, good to know.
Whatever anyway

I use DA potion/temp. adorn most of the time now, anyway.

Wow.

You can't double attack on an aoe attack.

You can't triple stamp a double stamp!

Just wanted to make sure you guys realize that since we dw we can use 2 temp adornments. I take my charms way off, place my 2nd weapon in primary slot, adorn it, put back in seconary slot, equip Charms way, adorn it. Even with the weapon in the secondary slot you still get the increase. I run DA and crit mostly, I only use the dps adornment on nights when I'm without a dirge.

Pipe down or that will get nerfed. I find it's easier to just unequip my offhand and adorn it in my inventory.
