I do believe the upgraded Shire coat is better then the Demon coat

You guys thoughts on a 7 fire 4 opener using a mp pot to squeeze it in there it's tight but I can't get it off on a dummy or say the beginning of a12s. Would it be a potency loss by not just using the supramax before your normal 6 fire 4s? Let me know what you think.

I don't know the numbers but losing out on potion buff sounds pretty severe. Is a 7th F4 even possible to cast due to AF and Enochian Timer?

With our current levels of SS (1300 +) the timers are a non-issue assuming you don't have to wait for a MP tic. I remember doing such 7 FIV openers on Zurvan X, mid-fight, when there was a bard playing ballad, so the timer aspect is fine.

Not sure on the MP department tho, it would be pretty bad having to wait on a MP tic and lose eno cause of that.

A 7+5 rotation is a thing if you have 314 piety. Even spell speed around 1k is sufficient for this, though the 7 part will be tight. The 5;5+5;5+5 that follow are no problem at 1k spell speed. The limiting factor really is piety, not the timers on Enochian and Astral Fire.

It's a thing if you have 282 piety as well, which is what I have. With party buff

[Maero]

I may very well re-meld some pieces, what did most of you meld for the extra piety if i my ask?

so interested as well in the answer of this question...

I put 2 Piety Vs on my Augmented Shire Hat to bring my base piety up to 284. The SS on it is already maxed, and I need the ACC of the hat, so it worked out well for my gear set.

So nobody talks about Crit anymore... it's a LOT of SS, a bit of Piety and what remains in Crit ?
