<p>(I posted this same message on EQ2flames. I apologize if that's a no-no, but I think this is mostly a different audience.)</p><div>The general concensus seems to be that vampiric adorn is the best DPS. However, I was looking at looking at poisons the other day and remembered that we have a purple poison with magic debuff (Warding Ebb). Since the shard armor Lifetap is magic damage, the Accord charm is magic damage (although really crappy) I decided to try some out. Previously I've been running with only red poison for a long time now (expert's caustic). That got me to thinking that maybe I should switch to magic damage on one of my weapon procs also, to take further advantage of the debuff.While soloing, I try to use Bound whenever I distance pull a mob, or if everything else is down. I always try to get Bound out when grouping with a mage or with a DPSing divine (like Templar or Pally). While I'm debuffing for them, I may as well up my own DPS, right?I think that one of the reasons Vampiric is preferred is that it's proc stacks on two weapons whereas the other adorns won't proc if they are the same on both weapons. Is that true? If so, I will still look at getting a magic damage adorn on one of my weapons.The only reason I haven't tried it yet and parsed on a training dummy is that it's not nearly so cheap to swap out an adorn as it is something like poison or your AA spec. So I wanted to get some input here before I spent the plat. If I get a magic adorn, then go back, I'm looking at 4-5 plat and I'm already looking to upgrade my offhand, so I could be out even more and I'm not that rich.What do you folks think?Final question: does anyone know if Bound and poison magic debuff stack for sure? I'm assuming they do (which in my case would be about 3K magic mit debuff, which is pretty dang nice when the wizzy does a burn).</div>
