hey all, i have never played a melee character or if i did, it was briefly back in the days. When era released back in 2019 i always played a caster, same goes with SoD. So my knowledge of melee’s is pretty much null when it comes to +weapon skills. My question is, is edgemaster’s handguards good for p3? im asking because we had an argument with my friend who main a warrior and he said those gloves are not that good for some reason (but i heard or read online those are bis even at 60)… has anyone tested edgemaster’s vs non edgemaster’s? whats the difernce in damage overall? is anyone using those now in p3? thanks
at level 50, raid targets are only level 52. which gives them +10 defense skill over the player, with +5 skill you gain 0.5% hit.
You will end up with 5.5% hit, which is not the cap. You will still need to gain another % hit to cap. so right now, the gloves are worthless.
at 60 we are promised to have free +5 wep skill to 2 of whatever weps we choose.
Edgemasters are worthless in SOD.
Here’s a chart for you:
| 15 | 35% (~35.12) | 8.0% | 9.0% |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14 | 31% | 7.8% | 8.6% |
| 13 | 27% (~26.74%) | 7.6% | 8.2% |
| 12 | 23% (~22.72%) | 7.4% | 7.8% |
| 11 | 19% | 7.2% | 7.4% |
| 10 | 15% (~14.82%) | 6.0% | 6.0% |
| 9 | 11% | 5.9% | 5.9% |
| 8 | 7% | 5.8% | 5.8% |
| 7 | 5% (~5.12%) | 5.7% | 5.7% |
| 6 | 5% | 5.6% | 5.6% |
| 5 | 5% (~4.96%) | 5.5% | 5.5% |
| 4 | 5% | 5.4% | 5.4% |
| 3 | 5% | 5.3% | 5.3% |
| 2 | 5% | 5.2% | 5.2% |
| 1 | 5% | 5.1% | 5.1% |
| 0 | 5% | 5.0% | 5.0% |
In this example, if the mob is level 52 (+10) your +5 skill will bring it down to +5.
at +5 def you need 5.5% hit > thus making the gloves useless as you need 6% to cap +10 def mobs
i see, thanks!
