Shard Armor:Deathly Lifetap + Greater Deathly Lifetap?

jaguarjp · 05-19-2009, 02:38 PM

Hi there,

Does anyone know for certain that if you equip three pieces of our T1 void shard armor, plus three pieces of our T2 void shard armor, if it would allow both of these procs to trigger?

Thanks

Yes, the two procs can both be triggered by the different 3 piece bonuses. Assassins ran into this same situation with their own shard armor. At the time that TSO came out, many assassins swore by the dual procs since they weren't wild about their 5 piece armor bonus.

Though afterwards many more scouts instead went for (3) pieces of their class specific T2 set (such as our Dauntless) and (3) pieces of the hybrid T2 (Soul Lancer) armor set. This ended up granting scouts far more bang for their buck due to the spell bonuses from both the hybrid Shoulder piece and the hybrid 3 piece +CA% bonus. (Though in response to this unexpected trend, Predators and Rogues don't have access to the T3 hybrid armor set. If they wish to upgrade either a hybrid or class specific set piece, then it will become a T3 version of their class specific armor set.)

The rogue 5 piece set bonus is rather sucky too. Another small mitigation debuff. It's ok, but overall meh. Also, with the recent proc changes, the soul lancer set is now completely useless for rogues and predators. I had to change out 2 pieces of soul lancer for dauntless due to that. Luckily one of my t2 pieces that was upgraded to t3 was a soul lancer piece or else I would have had to swap out 3. Rather pricey in void shards.
