    Default [Sorcerer] - Kraken amulet or Star Beast amulet? Which proc is better?

    Basically the title.

    I'm trying to figure out which amulet offers the better proc - Kraken or Star Beast.

    Also, which kind of awakes would be optimal for either?

    For reference, I'm a mage who plays PvE exclusively.

    Any inputs would be appreciated. Thanks!

    can I ask whats your reasoning here? in my mind, the krak amu provides good dmg reflection whereas the sb amu boosts a bunch of stats.

    in my experience, stat boosts haven't done much for me (think of gears like the lv76 valley aa, zaarus belt, etc.) although ive gotta admit the zaarus weapon stat boost procs are quite good!

    Damage reflected isn't too useful, because you either have procs up and mobs die anyway, mobs are stunned or kill you way too fast for you to get a lot of value out of kraken amulet.
    Reflection damage also isn't very good, especially in comparison to sb amulet damage buff.

    thats a fair assessment. ive gotta tell ya that i still run with a zaarus set, not with krak or star beast (poor in-game Nott), so my mob clearing speed isnt all that much. hence i run with skills and pets that provide me with durability. and thats what got me thinking about the title of this thread.
