Warrior stats with legendary level 61 gear

[Ronesg]

Just wait when you'll open all the stuff from the trader, it'll be even much higher

[Niixed]

Devs stated the power curve was massively pumped up for this expansion. Goodbye endgame paras and eyes forever, I wish they had done this for 56! It gives everyone a fresh start with legendary gear.

I think the arcane weapons should be as powerful (in damage!) as the new 61 legendary gear.

Devs, it would be extremely helpful if you gave us defined parameters on rarity power levels instead of keeping it a secret. When you change these definitions without our input, we feel steamrolled. Like you, we are also stakeholders in this game.

Are those the best in terms of dmg and armor for now?

btw, I did survive better with old mythic aegis since I killed mobs faster, but I was solo party when I did the experiment, new legendaries better for boss fights.

@OP Thanks for the peek at whats possible.
Looks exciting. Cant wait to go cap!

[msustro]

As a mage I now have 3800 armor with new helm and armor. I lost 400 health (now 7k) versus old gear but I'll take the armor

[ilhanna]

Exactly, but to my current knowledge only to the bearer itself. It is a constant passive, not a proc.

So more an easy map, event, old arena kind of weapon then. OK thanks.

All have good damage modifiers (3, 9.16, 9.31), but i did not do too much research, i had to choose whats in cs, besides the Potency Sash i looted.
But none has an armor bonus, if you want that, you have to look for other options.

[ForgottenWarrior]

Claymore procs reduce almost 1/3rd armor and aegis process increases up to 15% . That's the armor compensation

[Ravager]

The Aegis proc is:

Each basic attack increases players armor by 5%. Armor buff can stack twice. Charged attacks grant higher armor.

I am only at the beginning to test the weapons and we probably have to ask ravagerx for an in depth review.

But what i can already tell is this: The skill damage (example skyward smash) on the new aegis is around 700 higher than on my old aegis with one para. This is significant and could very well end the aera of the old aegis. But i have yet to test it in hard maps, as the old aegis proc would still dominate easy mobs.

Well since you called me out . I'll piggyback off your thread if you don't mind.

Weapon Comparison:




Ring Comparison:



Amulet Comparison:



Weapons:
46 Aegis:
+Large constant AOE proc
+Armor stack proc
+Taunt proc

61 Aegis:
+100% chance to proc on whiff or attacking enemy

61 Claymore:
+Constant high damage. No need to wait for proc

Comparing 46 Aegis of Might, 61 Legendary Aegis of Assault and 61 Claymore of Assault, I prefer the 46 Aegis of Might. I did a bunch of solo runs and found that I wiped the mobs out faster with the 46 Aegis proc (despite there being a 700+ dmg advantage of the Claymore). The Aegis proc helps get rid of those ranged straggler mobs that try to keep their distance. The 61 Aegis is nice if you want to save on pots. The mobs in the graveyard at the 50%-75% mark still killed me despite the high armor and I mashed pots. I think it's the mage or whatever mob people are complaining about. The passive armor debuff of Claymore is not considered an active buff where the debuff overrides buff. So that is good news for people who use the Durability passive. The passive damage buff of Claymore stacks with other modifiers as well such as VB. Currently, I use 46 Aegis for mobs, 61 Claymore for boss. I don't see where the 61 Aegis fits in. Maybe for PvP or cheaper/slower runs.

Rings:
I prefer my 3 para arcane ring. Slightly higher armor at the cost of slightly less hp. Slightly higher dmg. The arcane ring with 3 para costs a lot more but has a small chance at mp regain proc which helps a little in PvP.

Amulet:
Slight higher stats on the 54 Cryo Amulet (if jeweled properly) and with a proc that helps in PvP and slightly helps in Pve.

Maybe when newer content or the deeper levels appear, the 61 Aegis may be useful. Mostly a PvE analysis. Preferences could be different in PvP. Speed set is also a viable option for new levels also. It helps with big pulls and mob spawns at a small cost.

Ty Ravager for taking the time to post screen shots and compare both Aegis, I appreciate it.

Great insights as expected, thanks!
I currently run most with the claymore, combined with axe throw it really helps me to neutralize the archers fast, and without elite difficulty and only sparse mobs, there is no need for the tank to do the aoe damage imho. I moved away from the arcane ring and pendant because i expect the next event goodies to best them, and what i have is already overkill (no pvp features needed here).
I like to add that the new aegis is formidable if you run with egg ring, lepre and hisha. It still almost removes the need for potting and with three attack skills it shows it's strenght. All in all we have good options now for every taste on a budget.

Much agreed. I think this helps the situation of 4 tanks also. 4 claymore warriors doesn't seem too bad against a boss. The 61 legendaries are surprisingly good for what they cost. I think STS did a good job with the weapons. The weapon you decide to go with can be well balanced out with different builds and as you play different roles in your team. Since my tests were solo runs, the aoe proc of 46 aegis helped me more since I had no mage with me. Perhaps it could help even with a mage present but then we are delving with too many variances quickly.

I could see the benefit to the aegis luck setup you described. Nowadays, lots of runs will carry a large investment of pots, ankhs or time. That setup you have helps minimize the risk/investment to help maximize your chance at profits.

btw light model sword is beter bexause dmg is same and no -30% armor

To clarify, the +30% damage passive of the Duskbringer Claymore does not appear on your stats screen, so you're doing an additional 30% on top of what you see displayed (we're looking to see if we can get this to show properly) but the -30% armor does. So the Duskbringer Claymore will still have 30% more damage than the Lightbearer's weapon.


and maybe next time I'll have to make the % higher, that Claymore is supposed to allow you Warriors to go DPS if someone else is tanking, not to also use while tanking!!! =P

Just what I was looking forward to in this expansion! Thank you!
