[Greywolfamakir]

Lots of people viewing the document so far. Any and all feedback on it is appreciated so feel free to let me know what we would like changed or what you guys want different. A lot of the initial information is from the first page guide and I will be working to customize it and change up some of the formatting.

I found something "bad" in the BiS list.
Head slot, BiS list pick Machinist's Goggles, when Gordian Hood Of Aiming is better by far.

Good job on posting any reason why you think that. How about you explain how 21 crit beats 58 sks.

Tentative Stat Weights (3.01)

w/ GB
WD - 10.71
Dexterity - 1.000
Determination - 0.125
Critical Hit Rate - 0.140
Skill Speed - 0.020

17 Critical Hit Rate * 0.140 = 2.38 (tentative value)
58 Skill Speed * 0.020 = 1.16 (tentative value)

To be honest, I don't need to do this maths...Crit beats pretty hard SS currently.

That's why it's better Gordian Hood Of Aiming than Machinist's Goggles.

But Machinist's Goggles look awesome .

That value for SKS is outdated and most likely down incorrectly. I highly doubt SKS comes out to be a .020 weight.

Starting to think SkS might be higher than Det right now due to Wildfire and the 3.05 opener so we can eke in a Split shot or two after the final Clean shot in the opener.

Its the same dex, a 17 crit difference and I do not believe we need the accuracy so that is wasted as far as the itemization budget goes.

You need roughly 640 accuracy to meet the AS4 frontal accuracy cap. The build listed in the guide for 3.05 is the perfect BiS build we should be going for. You can eat Baked Pipira for AS4 and Morel Salad for every other turn.

Crit > Skill Speed & Det by far.

17 crit > 58 Skill Speed.
