    Cirque gear and stat questions.

    I just hit 90 on PUP last week and wanted to know if the Cirque gear is our best option? Gearing for my other jobs was pretty basic but I am having trouble finding what stats to focus on for PUP. Your thoughts please.

    4/5 Cirque and some haste feet (Aurore, Usukane, Enkidu) is the best DD option for the Master.

    ^pretty much. The feet aren't really a bad option either, but since you can't quite cap out haste without it and lolpinkfeet are easy to obtain, you'll be better off with that. You'll be less than 2% off the cap with all the other haste available minus the feet, so technically any of the feet haste gives you more than needed to cap and you're not getting the full benefit.

    I think i am 1 from cap with full cirque gear, and have chance to do double dmg, so i wouldnt wear haste feet.

    If you're using 5/5+2 and Twilight, you're at 24% haste, Which is roughly 1.xx Haste away from cap. If you have teircal neck its only ~.xx% from cap.

    Really I don't know. but then the question is you could switch to say, Usukane Feet and use Cirque Necklace, cap haste, and have the Martial arts bonus from neck!

    I think the jump form 4/5 and 5/5 is from 3% proc to 5% proc, So its a good +2%.......

    Really IDK whats best for PUP :|

    I think fashion is important. But the set bonus seems to go off about 5% of the time for double damage, I think that may beat 1 percent haste.
    Plus, as I said, fashion counts

    Basically its cirque or nothing, with the exception of the feet, there are some better haste options out there.

    I would put a fraction of a percent of haste around even with another 1% chance for double damage.

    4/5 with haste boots. The slight increase in set bonus proc is not worth the more reliable part of the haste/ martial arts(esp if ur getting more haste then just from gear) that you get all the time. Maybe if you need the acc from the boots or something like that for outside aby maybe?

    When you're full +2, Cirque +2 beat a 2% haste feet most of the time, IIRC always unless you have haste, haste samba and double marches on you, or something like that. I did the calcs long time ago using Kinematics spreadsheet, but forgot the exact results. I'll look at them again when I finish my full +2, I'm only at 2/5 plus almost legs done.
