Mark of power; the inq class buff, give 5% boost to mainstat.

Alternatively; there is nothing that boosts power. Unnatural Might bosts bonus damage directly so I'm not really sure. Probably depends on what your bonus damage is like already, then you'd have to do the math to see if that gives you better direct bonus damage or run the calculations for how much the mainstat is giving you based on it being a higher number.

It's way to early and probably complicated enough that I wont try doing that math. Much easier to just have both augments, then swap them out and see.

Power provides 0.23 bonus damage while main stats provides 0.20 bonus damage. Critic per stats is 0.0026%. Main stats augment provides 6.72 bonus damage and 0.09% critic, including buff bonus. Power augments provide 7.36 bonus damage. The difference between both is marginal at best.

Power will always be better for classes with auto critic skills. For dec sin, I would go with power, because discharge and shock can auto critic with recklessness, but going with main stats the difference is marginal.

The difference is 1.5% extra crit (not counting the inquisitor buff which adds an extra 5% to the overall wp, with it probably 1.6% or 1.7%) vs 13.44 extra bonus damage. Neither is overly impressive enough to say "definitely go with this one", but I would rather go with the extra crit for mauls and thrashes.

You're bragging about 8 KBs? Loooool. Each smash gives me 5 KBs.

That's funny, because neither do I. The problem is that you hold true to your "facts" so much, that you forget to look at the bigger picture. You're too closely minded.
I've got an entire cargo filled with old crit mods I removed. Maybe you should try power.

Lol I have smashers too. Think I got up to 43 in warzones with them, haven't played either of them in arenas yet. 43 isn't bad for a class I play once in a blue moon and iirc is still second or third on the charts.

You're arguing that crit is useless for deception, and that you got killing blows in an arena so that proves your point and makes you good at assasin?

"Expertise > Willpower >= Accuracy (105%) > Surge (70%) > Power > Crit (25%)"

I just am going off of that for now, my assassin is only lvl 45 right now.
