When is an i100 item better than an i110? - I.E. ST Hands

[AIex]

It absolutely is not situationally better. According to your own words. Job #1 is to survive Job #2 is to dps

Why on earth would you add DPS to the slots in which your most efficient survival stats come from, IE the chest piece with Defense, Vitality, and parry.

It CAN be situationally better. By no means is it BiS for everything. It is just a viable option as OT DPS. Tell me how much Defense, Vitality, and parry you need as OT when nothing is hitting you most of the fight.

What you absolutely would not do, is have fending accessories be specced into Vitality, and then try to add DPS through LESS STR and marginally higher secondary stats on your CHEST ARMOR. Least thought out suggestion I have ever heard.

And no you did not say i100 is BiS. But you should be considering that, because if you look at the gains from accessories over your measly gains from a main chest piece, you would see that you would end up with less overall DPS stat weights. AND less survivability.

I already showed the calculation showing the numbers and that it's possible for them to be better for dps, please pay attention.

You absolutely must look at what you are saying in a Big picture format, because that chest piece is not better than the i110. I would also ask that you stop spreading such misinformation on the forums.

This isn't misinformation if it's proven mathmatically. Please prove to me otherwise that 5 STR > 27 DET+26SKLSPD. Also, you're entitled to your opinions and I respect that. I'm sure you're a good tank and all, but your theories on builds are not the only theories out there. Please respect that other builds can exist and other stats have value to different players instead of calling it "misinformation". All of what both of us are saying are OPINIONS. Thank you and this is the end of my replies to you
