people only fished for balance because world first savage raiders told them that was the way to do it. The highest parse at the time for BRD was when they were given spear cards which increased critical hit rates. This also means that I guess jobs should have no impact in any other content than savage or ultimate. Also Astrodyne is a 5% potency buff.
