@Paradox Gaming Network I dont quite understand how crit dmg is calculated, I saw some ppl say if ur crit dmg is below 100% then u multiply ur crit to the base damage and then add it to the same base damage, and if ur crit dmg is more than 100% then the dmg applied is ur base dmg multiplied by crit dmg, and this is where this gets confusing, for example, if ur base dmg is 2000, and ur crit dmg is 99% then ur applied damage when a crit occurs will be ((2000*0.99)+2000) which is 3980. and say if ur crit dmg is 199% then ur applied dmg when a crit occurs will be (2000*1.99) which is also 3980 I am new to ur channel, and i couldnt find a good video that explains this in a mathematical point of view, other than my misunderstanding of things, good video and keep up the great work

Great video, thank you for all the information you're providing in them. Had a quick question, as an archer (ebonsong) is there any value in tempering my melee weapons, since only the DPS goes up and I'm using my bow and not my melee? (I know the gs will go up, but I'm not after raising my gs just for the sake of it) Thanks again :)

Thanks for the explanation! But I do wonder is the charmed debuff from songcraft (50% reduced defenses) applied before or after def pen? Because if its after, someone with 9k magic pen and the debuff could be close to dealing full damage. Another question: What would you say its better for an offensive bard (phantasm/enchantrix), full crit damage/chance or def pen. The build is all about using CC and killing ppl with ode while you dance around them. (hope its viable...) Thanks!

what do you think of putting melee attack gems into belt and guard? Worth it or better to go with sunglow gems for ability damage increase and decreases for stuns? From what i have seen on gear calculator melee attack gems would only put in extra few points towards it so im thinking sunglows are better overall?
@ParadoxGamingNetwork

Yeah this becomes the offense vs defense discussion. If you were running an absolute glass cannon build you'd go with with the melee attack gems so you can get the most out of every single attack. If you are going with a logical build you'd put in the stun decrease.

@Paradox Gaming Network What if I'm a person who only PvE against ancestral mobs, world bosses and dungeons? And I have low Crit Rate. Should I still get Crit Dmg, Def Pen or Focus on my weapons? many thanks!
@ParadoxGamingNetwork

Focus is a PvP stat, you don't need it for PvE. For PvE you want to get as close to 100% Crit Rate as you can and then as close to 300% Critical Damage. Keep in mind if you have abilities that give you Crit Rate or Crit Damage so you don't over stack and waste.
@SivSafari

@@ParadoxGamingNetwork Pew here! I have heard that crit rate is actually invisibly stackable past 100% (tho i find it wasteful myself). Just an fyi to note. Also, basing your dps build around both PvE and PvP is a strong advocate for choosing crit dmg instead of pen, since most bosses/mobs have so much or very little defenses, you're basically loosing out on 300% more crit dmg for a completely wasted stat. I currently go 2-CDMG 1-DPEN for my 3 weapons, Factoring in that when im full eternal, I'll be able to max out crit dmg with Steady Shooting (archer skill) while having optimal def pen ontop, since it would then be the only offensive stat left to maximize!!

Focus has its own video ironically at: kzitem.info/news/bejne/yIeFl46PjIqLqmk But no, you don't want to give up Crit or Def Pen for Focus. You might want to pick up focus gems instead of mitigation gems in your gloves, but that would be based on personal play style.

So different weapons do different damage vs different armor Slashing = dagger, katana, nodachi effectiveness 15% more dps on leather Piercing = sword, greatsword, short spear, long spear 15% more dmg on plate Crushing = Axe, Great Axe, Club, Scepter 20% more dmg on plate Plate is also losing 10% of its P.

You can stick with Magic Def Pen and try to stack more of it in all the applicable places that you can get it. Ideally you want to get up to around 8-9k def pen, but even with 5,000 you are taking a chunk off defense, so your non-crit hits will be bigger than someone who has stacked all critical damage bonus.

As a mage, you also have the leisure of always dealing dmg, due to magic avoiding almost all mitigation stats except 4 (Resil/toughness/mdef/dmg reduction). You could build yourself full crit/pen while carrying a swappable HP or block rate gem shield, and defense/toughness/reduction/blockrate/parry/resil in available slots & costumes, and be unkillable while still having the reliable dmg to kill that same opponent. I fight in arena alot, and Its rather prevalent in 1v1s at least. Mages get away with alot, when it comes to mitigation vs offense.

The floor of your Critical Damage will always be Base Damage + 50% (Critical Damage). It is not 150% Critical Damage, it is +50% Critical Damage. This trips people up since they think its Base + 150% (Critical). Its either Base + 50% or its 150% of Base. The Number for Resilience is 1 - Your Resilience / (Your Resilience + 14,000) So Yes, IF someone has 10,000 Resilience then they would negate +140% (approximately) of your Critical Damage. Everything about +140% would still benefit you. So 50% (base) + 140% would still only do +50% However, after doing all this research I have found very few people running around with 10,000 Resilience That said, Def Pen does more damage on the non critical hits, and Resilience does reduce Critical Hit Chance as well.

@@ParadoxGamingNetwork thanks for informations. I am playing on Ezi fresh start. Playing for GvG. In Ezi, most ot people who participate DGS, kraken, Thunderwing etc has epic set so they 10k resi is common. Atm full def pen looks like viable. imo., not hybrid, full! otherwise as you mentioned in video there will be a lack crit dmg. so you won't able crit hard or penetrate hard. If player has full crit dmg build it is good too. The only thing should be avoided is hybrid builds. With the next patches resilence will increase since we will get t3 gems and legend/mythic hiram. So resi will become more effective but flat def values will increase too. So both crit chance/dmg and def pen will less effective. You wil be able to reach higher value of crit dmg/ rate via hiram upgrading hiram gear but there is nothing to increase your def pen. oof. There are still many thing to be tested. Anyway thanks for video!
