The Sylvan set bonus does seem like it procs frequently enough. What about starting shot in Scout's Jerkin +2 for a better chance at that? As it stands, I blink almost all of my shots from gandiva with a 0.5 midcast delay. Maybe it'd be more beneficial to trade 5% snapshot for a +7% chance of dealing double damage.

set bonus proc is only 5% on rapid shot proc, which is probably only about 10%, so definitely not :<

Yeah it's not a straight 7% increase. It's 5% out of %(chance of rapid shot proc+7%).

edit: worded it wrong.

Yeah, that's what I meant to ask but worded it wrong (I know set bonus doesn't activate on every Rapid Shot). I can understand why a gun would want the snapshot for every shot, but when you get to lower delay ranged weapons (particularly crossbows), the extra snapshot kind of feels... wasted? For a lack of a better word to describe it. The shot damage appears in the chat log before I finish blinking into midcast gear, almost like a Rapid Shot proc.

With that in mind, I guess my real question would be something like... if shots are finishing that fast regardless, would it be more beneficial to try to force a real Rapid Shot for a chance at the set bonus? I'm a bit over halfway done with my Hope items, so I can play around with it some then.

unless it can also proc on gastraphetes odd/odt, then i doubt it :<

and i doubt it anyway to begin with :< it's just so low, and you don't even end shot in much af3+2 anymore..just body and legs iirc..so the activation rate is even lower than retardedly-low.

anyone good with math :x?

trying to 5 hit xbow rng/war. if counting on 1 hit of the af2+2 beret to proc in 4 hits, it seems like 6.2% of the time i'll have to do a 6hit (0.5x0.5x0.5x0.5 chance of failing). how much does this hurt your overall dps? would it be better to make a true 5 hit instead?

idk, stuffs so confusing, esp. when you take into account how long you're continuously fighting..if a mob dies in 2 rounds of tp-> ws, then the 6% chance is pretty low, but obv. the longer somethings alive the more this 6% would hurt your overall dps yes?

sorry if i'm making no sense, i don't even understand what im talking about!

this would be my imperfect 5hit



this gives 19.9 tp/hit, need 20.825 (so i'm guessing 20.9) for a true 5hit w/ WS.

anything i should change really :x?

Unrelated, but how much snapshot is on the xbow?

havent tested it out yet tbh, was planning on just getting it to 95/99 then doing it, since i dont have a stopwatch or anything atm. it's 3-4 seconds between equipment changed and ranged attack lands in the chatlog if that means anything atm.
