Interesting. Is it possible to make a BiS that balances Determination and Crit Rate well, or is it not possible without one overshadowing the other?

acc 506 and balanced det and crit

I wish the animus wasn't the worst weapon in 2.2.

Is the acc for T7 higher than T6? Because otherwise the scaling to 500 acc for T8 is unfounded. T6 appears to be in the ballpark of 470 for flanks (and probably around 493 for frontal).

Is it the worst weapon when all the books are done? Or is it about the same?

For a quick heads up, I never miss on anything so far in t6 - t7 with ~475 accuracy. Okay I also never attack from the front :p

I guess technically the 95 levi weapon is the worst.
But it can be upgraded to 100 to have 28 Acc/40 Crit.
To be clear, the Atma weapon is only ilvl 100 in name. Stat-wise it's exactly the same as 90 zenith and the books increase it up to proper ilvl 100 status(the Animus is what it's called when all the books are done).

The Animus is 40 Acc/28 SkS.
That and the Tidal Wave Petas are somewhat comparable. Most monks favor crit over SkS though. It's saving point is that it may make up for accuracy loss if you buy the chest.
It's a lot of work though for just that.

Not to mention the Weathered Glanzfaust is 40 Acc/20 Det and can be upgraded to 110, making it better that either of the other two.

I understand that weapons from tougher things should have higher item level.
But the way it is now, the relic ends up being for people who don't have access to the other weapons.
I'm going to do all of it anyway, but it's disappointing that the relic is just something non-raiders would use.
Especially with the elaborate book stat progression, which I think is awesome.

Yeah it would have been nice if they allowed for some level of customization to your relic since they keep leaning back to it as a class defining weapon. They sure do look cool though!
