    A question regarding the Item Level requirement in a future update

    I am well aware of items current "Item Level", However I am curious as to how the system will gauge your Average "Item Level". I only say this in the light that Just because an Item's "Item Level" is higher, doesn't make it better.

    My case in point being Peltast Accessories, Many of them give 1 less strength then Darklight Accessories, however they give Determination, Manly the neck piece.

    I am pretty sure that 1 str isnt worth tossing 8 Determination, Yea I'm sure the crit rate boost would be nice, but Determination directly affects dmg output.

    Just curious!

    People are saying that 1 maint stat = 8secondar stat.

    So 1str and 8 determination is equal. So darklight will be better because same dmg but with crit

    Did you parse this or eyeball it? Just wondering, because I wouldn't mind seeing some real numbers on main stat vs secondary stat stuff.

    Not to mention he could have been playing with sub-par tanks when he was "pulling hate more consistently" So many unknown factors there..
