SMN BIS 2.3

DET and CRT have an approximately equal value. The reason your damage didn't spike up really high between Book of Spades and High Allagan is the lose of DET for Spell Speed but the gain of 2 Weapon Damage and 15 CRT and for summoner, damage increase via Weapon Damage is not as high as melee since the base is so high to begin with.

So in the end, High Allagan is an upgrade from Book of Spades but it is a little one, not a big one like melees.

Ok so based on a pure numbers standpoint, you get 3 int, 2 WD and 15 crit for HA vs 31 det for BOS. If crit and det are approximately equal, that means 3 int + 2 WD is only slightly better than 16 det? It really seems like crit/det is pretty undervalued or WD really sucks for summoner.

Interesting. I just got my HA book recently. First raid I was able to use it was last week. I noticed my numbers increase by roughly 20-40 DPS over previous weeks. Increases of roughly 40 DPS t6-8 and about 20+ on t9. But this was also upgrading from ST legs to i110 soldiery legs. So a good chunk of that damage could also be from that rather large upgrade. 29 det that I did not have before.

I am behind on soldiery gear because I was a late re-roll to SMN from DRG and BRD prior. 2 weeks til I get my soldiery body and then I just need the HA ring for full BiS.

Hey if you could, test out on a dummy with the HA and BOS but with the same gear for everything else and get back to us? Cuz I'm only seeing a 5-10 dps increase using HA. It would be quite interesting..
