Are they ever going to fix this junk? The stats are awful and I think the impetuous strike gear is a better set.

<p>the stats could definately use some beefing up...other then the mantles, i would still choose to use legendary gear over most of this set.  class gear in general from this expansion is garbage...good thing there are so many other pieces that are much better and easier to come by.</p>

The update notes say they're increasing mitigation, but I hope they're fixing stats/effects too. Why the hell would we care about mitigation?

<p>The set is deffinatly nothing to write home about.  Yeah if you get three items it reduces the timer, but even then I really rarely wear the two items I have unless I need the resist. </p><p>When ever it drops our swashys and brigand go MMMM 15dkp I guess (min bid on fabled for my guild), but when other items drop the like weapons or manipulater hood etc. the bidding goes through the roof.</p><p>Adding a low double attack or melee crit would be nice, heck even +slashing/+piercing might make it worth using on orange mobs, but as it stands now, its a really sad set for our subclass gear.</p>
