Def not spell crit. For one thing, we ain't no stinkin' mages...

For another - read up on missed patch notes. They changed our shit to use melee mods.

Item based triggered effects can no longer critical or have their damage components modified unless done directly through something like an achievement or set bonus.
Spell Crit and Spell Base Damage is completly useless now. Choker is still decent for the CA Base Damage.

CoB, Crypt's Revenge and Inspried Daring is now a melee attack (read: uses Melee Crit and CA Base Damage instead of Spell Crit and Spell Base Damage).

I haven't used GVB in almost a half year, but I heard it's pretty useless now.

GVB is almost just as useful as it was before GU52. Still parses 100+ ZW in non-void zones, and 175-250 in Palace, based on my (comparatively low certainly) 11-13k overall ZWs. Stacking multiple items with it is useless, certainly, but the Brute Shackle is still the 3rd best wrist option we have IMO.

Default Re: Returning swash

I should have phrased that differently...3rd best non-avatar wrist. I doubt I'll be taking Koldsteel's place in the only guild on my server that kills Avatars any time soon, and have no desire to transfer, so I tend to not even factor those into my calculations. And a big "Meh" to Void Pearl Bracelet, I'll take the crit over DA any day, even without getting BC in our raids (gd MT is even more a buffwhore than me), I have no trouble with DA.

And in any case, the point remains that GVB != useless.
