Gearing for PvP

[Tussin]

if i want to maximize my potential, should i go for critical hit and skill speed on my gear or critical hit and determination to maximize burst potential?

should i pick and choose gear? or strictly use the pvp gear to fine tune my damage?

i don't get how Morale works if at all or in what PvP modes?

morale just brings up the gears ilvl closer to 150 but since its outdated with all the ilvl increases morale is junk that needs to be updated or taken out.

mix and match for whichever stats you want to cap out. you'll be spending alot of time inside an actual match to see which pieces cap out.

each pieces has a stat cap so dont just completely use every piece of gear that has say crit/det cuz when one of them caps out any other piece with that stat becomes useless and should be replaced with something else.

ok that is great information. do you know what the stats cap out at for ability properties? ie skill speed, det, crit, accuracy etc.

is it like i can only benefit from +100 skill speed from my gear total combined at ilevel 150? for example

[ShaluaLie]

i'm not sure what it is for other classes but for nin crit is capped at 754 and det is 514. min accuracy u need to hit anything is 390.

First off there are no actual character secondary stat caps in PvP. Gear has a maximum bonus it will provide which is tied to ilevel syncing. In total your gear can give you up to +400 Crit/SkS/SpS and +379 Det.

The short and sweet of gearing for i150 sync PvP is that any piece of green, blue or purple gear with an effective ilevel of i185 or higher will sync to max stats for that slot in i150 content.

Morale works by increasing the items effective ilevel from its base ilevel to base ilevel + morale bonus while in PvP areas.
