    Default Vanity mage weapons at vendors

    These stats are compared to expedition rifle of brutality lvl41 without gems, who spends his hard earned teeth/token for only look?

    Double critical rate.

    If you are building a high-crit sorcerer, damage almost becomes secondary before you reach certain critical plateaus. HP is partly irrelevant to this type of build since keeping distance is the main key in its playstyle.

    Keep in mind that when you score a critical you get +50% damage (from 200 uncharged bow shots, 67 were critical hits, results drawn from average numbers).
    That percent climbs even higher if in the skill description it says "+ increased damage on a critical" which is the case for all the sorcerers attacking skills if I'm not wrong.

    So yeah, double critical rate is something worth the damage and HP loss and probably all that teeth for those who know what they're doing with it - not implying you don't.

    Anytime you can buy something with tokens its usually trash. The only exception you could say is the magma armor/helm. So yeah spend 3 weeks farming teeth or buy a weapon 1k in cs. Doesn't make any logical sense but thats how it is and its always been like that.

    Oh you meant that, i thought its a hidden proc.

    Yea bit crit always good, but the lot loss on damage not worth imho. And i bought a new wild amulet, bit loss on crit but i kinda like it, im wearing now more often than lunar.

    I am also using the new Wild Talismans - it's great for all three classes but needs a little tweaking in your build. The proc for mage and rogue is just for the lols since it happens once a decade and lasts for like two seconds but the extra armor does help. IMO they should've swapped the procs between that and the L2 ring - throwing a firework, vanity-like proc in something that far many more people will use is just silly.

    Anyway, the other 2 classes got at least considerable weapons at vendors, i have seen warriors using the goblin glaive, rogues using dragonbone daggers. Please look through the mage weapons again, or give us something with acceptable stats on next event.
