The Hammer is better than the crafted mace in almost every way.

What you gain from 50 Hammer to 55 Crafted Mace :

3 Str
1 Health
6 H/S
9 Armor


What you lose from 50 Hammer to 55 Crafted Mace :

8% Hit
3% Crit
1 M/S
Roughly 30 base damage.
21 DPS


The mace is way more tank than the Hammer, but thats a 50 Hammer. You don't really need tank stats with a hammer on anyway, as your goal for putting on a 2H is to do damage. It should at least compare or be better than the Hammer, IMO. :)

BTW, you lose 8 dodge and only gain about 10-20 damage from a 55 Pink Mace to a 55 Crafted Pink Mace, not worth it IMO.

Wow... Rift prices going back up?

I don't know too. Its still quite early to actually invest or empty since Rift was also sort of like this last time, just armours though.

I'll try to put up a pic later to show the OL Rift vs all the other 55 helms, though I prefer my 55 helm, a lot prefer the OL Rift.

I'm thinking this will be fixed, isis/thoth/horus wasn't preferred over destiny/fate/fortune or the premium pinks when 50 came out. :)

With the BS Dex equipment, nothing really seems effective other than dps. But of course, I haven't tried the pinks since I haven't gotten drops :D But I expect that if theyre just upgraded, it won't be much difference. Maybe a little better, or sacrificing one necessary stat for the other. Level 53 and I'm still wearing my Void

Hmm, I tested the mace for debuffs and nothing visible came up, and the crit stayed about the same, so I don't think it has a hidden debuff either. The hammer however has a stun proc, so it would make for a better tanking weapon as well IMO. Since stun comes very useful, versus 9 armor.

Yup, at the moment crafting only offers you the opposite or alternative stat, but I don't see the point since it takes so much more to craft vs just the normal pink.

Recipe, pink itself, ingredients.

Think so too, Mace just looks kinda awesome being huge :D

level 51 pinks vs level 50 elite gear was a huge let down. Subpar defense, no mana regen. Yes, DPS and Crit skyrockets and when coupled with your skills, it makes you very dangerous. However, when you can take about 3 hits before you die it doesn't do any good to just unload on bigger enemies.

speed on both? it makes a big diff

[FluffNStuff]

Can you test what damage is added to your skills with both, like what your stomp is listed at with mace vs hammer?

Same speed, 1.4 on both.
