    I have a question, could the novus/book of spades be better than the HA weapon? Yeah i know, 2 Magic damage points, but those 32 spell speed are horrible

    2 Magic Damage is worth like 72-100 Secondary Stats. (probably not exact, but it's a lot) - So it's definitely worth it compared to Book of Spades.

    A combination of DET and CRIT while trying to get as little Spell Speed as possible.

    Let's give each of the books a "rating" based off stat weights Where 1 INT = 1 INT, 1 crit = .211 INT, 1 det = .283 INT, 1 SpS = .094 INT and 1 WD = 6.57 INT, formula I'll be using is INT + (crit*.211)+(det*.283)+(SpS*.094)+(WD*6.57) = rating

    Book of Spades: 550.064
    HA Book: 563.604

    The +2 WD, +3 INT, +32 SpS and the +15 crit more then make up for the 31 det you lose (while yes Det is an important stat, keep in mind crits do increase your damage periodically. Imo it's an amazing stat and I love it

    Here's my BiS btw. I made this at the beginning of 2.2 when accuracy caps were discovered and this list I cooked up has a perfect amount of accuracy
