I heard there was one that increases your hate...anyone know the name of that one?<div></div>

[Canel]

<DIV>go for the mitagation adornments, and the HP/PWR ones as well</DIV>

[Kaleyen]

Have the names of them?<div></div>

[Canel]

<P>The T7 is scintillating reinforced ect ect for the mit, not sure on the HP and PWR ones</P> <P> </P> <P>I also suggest going for the haste/dps buffs as well, I believe its scintillating tactical</P><p>Message Edited by Canel on <span class=date_text>11-22-2006</span> <span class=time_text>02:30 PM</span>

Ok, I see one that says "Slows target by 47%" is that a snare (I would assume) or an actual slow?<div></div>

[Canel]

<DIV>prob a slow...since your in PVP its prob a good thing, but id say dont buy that and go for the ohter possible procs</DIV>

[equinoxio]

<DIV>Here is a list of adorments, I prefer the hp with power, agi and block/parry over the mit IMO, since the new cap is 10k it's nearly impossible for us to break that now, but it's a good idea to get more avo. In the slots that dont have either hp/power, block/parry I prefer going with FT althought still deciding if getting the divine dmg increase for symbol or the FT one, or get more Sta</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Another thing I think the adorment haste stack with the item haste, like if you have the Gauntles of Glorious Speed (22% haste) and add a scintilating rapid handle (20 haste) you will have 40%

[equinoxio]

<DIV>Ah ok, just saying since a guildie said that he put the 2% haste on the FBSS and got a 22 (20 from belt 2 from adorment). Personally I havent tried since i dont want to waste money so it doesnt work for me.</DIV>

[Lairdragna]

You are allowed both an item haste and an adornment haste, they are seperate types of haste.  You may not have more than one of each, if you do, the highest value will be the one in effect.From what I recallOne item hasteOne AA hasteOne spell hasteOne adornment hasteThat is what you may have and they do stack.<div></div>

[Vulkan_NTooki]

So my jade inlaid axe with 20 haste, can be adorned with the +20 speed adornment and yield 40 percent haste?

[equinoxio]

<p>I think not Vulkan, unless someone say other wise, I would recomend getting a different adorn for weps, since the haste aparently isnt stacking.</p><p> PS: This is the best page i've seen for adornment selections, enjoy, pass it to your guildies/friends:</p><p><a href="http://kanga.h0b0.net/adornments/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://kanga.h0b0.net/adornments/</a></p>

<cite>Vulkan_NTooki wrote:</cite><blockquote>So my jade inlaid axe with 20 haste, can be adorned with the +20 speed adornment and yield 40 percent haste?</blockquote> Yes it can. I have 25% haste from the CoF and then 2% haste from an adornment on my waist. Like somone said before, you can have 1 item haste, 1 adorn haste, 1 AA haste, and 1 spell haste.

[Vulkan_NTooki]

<p>That rule of thumb doesnt work tho.</p><p>I didnt wanna waste alot of plat for a +20 haste one, so I made a sparkling rapid handgrips instead.. These are t2 and offers +2 increased attack speed. When applied to the axe my haste did not increase. The only item haste I had on when testing was the 20 haste provided by the axe.</p><p>So what it seems is</p><p>You can have 1 item haste, multiple spell haste, 1 belt buckle item haste, multiple aa haste, and multiple proc haste.</p><p>Im pretty sure you can have multiple spell effects to increase haste. It cant be the same spell tho. Allthough I need to check this to confirm it.</p><p>I have an axe aa spell that increase my haste by 24 for 20 secs.. this stacks with the aa permanent haste of 18 I get from another aa.</p><p>I also have several items or buffs that provide haste procs.. These seem to stack as well.</p><p>Example:</p><p>Imbued Ring of Agi procs 28 attack speed, agitate procs 50 attack speed, CoF gives 25 attack speed, Axe AA gives 24 attack speed, AA perm haste is 18 attack speed, buckler adornment is 2 attack speed.</p><p>= 147 haste.. This do stack with Illu haste and/or bard haste. Since I know I had 170+ haste from time to time.</p>
