    (ilvl90) Hero's accessories of healing vs relic+1

    I will have 1,200 Mythology tombstones this week and have the option to +1 my relic or
    get 3x pieces of Hero accessories. Of course, the extra magic damage off the relic will
    provide the biggest increase in healing but my concern is the life-span of a +1 relic.

    3 weeks of mythology is a big investment for a weapon that may be obsolete in 2.1 and
    replaceable by Allagan weapon in Coil.

    Would it be better to get the accessories instead which are better than the Allagan accessories
    and could be BIS well into 2.1?

    Based off my stats: 419MND, 269DTR, 368CRIT, 66MD
    Omnilex+1 (+4MND +3MD) = 4.27% increase @ 7% crit
    3x Hero Accessories (+12MND +48CRIT) = 4.07% increase @ 10% crit

    and it still leaves me the option of upgrading to Allagan weap w/ crit or one of the new weaps off primal Extreme mode in 2.1

    It's not about the Allagan weap but the life span of the Relic itself.

    Exactly what argument is there to get the +1 over the accessories? They both provide the similar increase but the accessories seem to have a higher lifespan. The accessories just seems like more bang per myth and better long term investment.

    There probably won't be a better weapon for at least 2-3 patches, which is probably about 9-12 months.

    Well for a SCH, the Allagan weapon is BIS unless they change the DR on spell speed.

    Magic damage on +1 relic is worth 6-10 main stat or so for every 1 damage. This means a good chunk of MND ontop of the increased starts from ilvl upgrade (80 base to 90 for +1) if you want to heal more, go +1.
