Tier 7 M1 vs T8 AD3

[Koard]

I've updated nearly everything to AD3 minimum. The rest are all M1. I'm not seeing much diff at all between the T7 M1's and the T8 AD3's. I really expected to see a bigger gap in damage. I've removed any old T7 fabled that had + dam for a particular spell. Can anyone shed some light on this or is that just the way it is. I thought I read somewhere that even a higher lev adept1 was to be close to the M1 it's meant to replace. Feel free to comment or even flame me, heh.  <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/0320a00cb4bb5629ab9fc2bc1fcc4e9e.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />Koard - 80 SK on Crushbone

Even the T8 masters blow compared to the A3's we got crap updates.

That sucks but good to know. Thanks for the post.

its the dark side of going from a 14 level spread of upgrades to a 10 the differances will be minimal from now on.

<p>IIrc T7 M1 -> T8 AIII is averagely 8% increase in dmg T7 M1 -> T8 M1 about 20% increase.</p><p>I have calculated this using several spells, but cant check right now that I remeber percentages correctly. This is very easy to calculate and confirm/correct ingame.</p>

<p>Basically with the old 14lvl spread you'd see a 5-10% increase from previous tier m1 to next tier ad3</p><p>Now with the 10lvl spread its been dropped to 1-5% on average</p><p>However, m1 to m1 is still approx 20% upgrade, and upgrades from t8 ad1-ad3-m1 keep the same percentages as previous tiers.</p>

I'll be really brief bu i can show it more throughly if you want me to do so but I think there's no need..</p><p>If m1 to m1 between tiers remains the same AND ad1-ad3-m1 within a tier also remains the same THEN also from T7 m1 to T8 a3 has to remain same.
