Otchiver Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Question... Now that Double Serendipitous Assault relic is out with this patch, what's the next best in slot relic? Is it the Mainstat one you get off Bastion of fear (Dread palace story quest) best at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justcae Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Clicky Power relic would be best for on demand damage increase. As far as parsing on a dummy? No idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasCool Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 btw the obroan SA relic is now completely broken... doesn't proc at all (Even if it's the only relic you have equipped) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGITSJAD Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 btw the obroan SA relic is now completely broken... doesn't proc at all (Even if it's the only relic you have equipped) Don't know where you're getting this info from, I literally just saw mine proc and increase my damage in-game 30 seconds ago.

dipstik Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 the main stat proc is proccing every 20 seconds right now, which makes it comprable to power proc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sindariel Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 btw the obroan SA relic is now completely broken... doesn't proc at all (Even if it's the only relic you have equipped) Do you have it equipped in the 2nd relic slot? It seems, if you have two SA relics equipped, only the one in the first slot does proc while the relic in the 2nd slot gets completely locked out. But when you remove the relic from 1st slot, the relic in the 2nd slot is still disabled. You have to re-equip it to fix this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeenPonyD Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 the main stat proc is proccing every 20 seconds right now, which makes it comprable to power proc. Does it proc with the SA relic right now too? I have a relic token and am on the fence about which of my relics to upgrade. I am a madness sorc. Currently I use Underworld Bounless Ages/SA combo for PvE. If the SA relic and Main Stat relic can proc independently I may upgrade to that over my power click... feedback appreciated!

It does, I'm in the same boat and have been parsing with the 2, I've found that the main stat relic isn't too bad surprisingly and depending on RNG I parse higher with it than the BA. However, its not working as the tooltip says at the moment and if it gets fixed it may change that completely. I'm also a combat sentinel so no heals or skill tree bonus. I've been doing above 3400 with both along with above 3500 depending on RNG, I wish there was some math to help me decide.

LeenPonyD Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) I went ahead and bought the DF Main Stat Proc relic. I didn't augment it yet and took it for a quick parse. I am just about where I parse with an aug'd BA, just less burst, for obvious reasons. I would expect my parse to be a bit higher with the augment in. I wish there was some math to help me decide. Here, I found this during my search today. it should help you too. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=648556 Edited November 12, 2013 by LeenPonyD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atschai Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 (edited) Yes, Main Stat proc Dread Forged seems to be a nice choice for second relic, especially for classes with mainstat bonus via skill tree (as stated, it does not proc every 40 sec as in the description, but every 20 sec). On the other hand, Kell Dragon internal force damage proc is great also for force users (there currently is no internal/elemental tech equivalent), especially for sentinels who do not have an increased strength talent. It is arguable that for combat sents with 40% armor penetration uptime, kinetic force damage proc is even better. This is, of course if you do not want to have a power click relic as second option.

ZentheSecond Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Are all the main stat on proc relics working like this? Going off every 20 seconds? Or just the dread forged? I am debating getting the ranked PvP one since I have not even done one boss in HMDP which is the Op that drops the relic token for DF. Ranked is the same # on the proc as DF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVaglin Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I tested the arkanian before and that only proc:ed every 40 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajedimaster Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 It is working with the pvp Obren relic as well so you have it up for 12 sec with 8 sec cool down and then its back up again. Still not sure if this is better then boundless ages but if you don't like clicky then its the way to go until then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoFishing Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 It would be nice to see something official from BW on whether the main stat proc relic CD is supposed to be 20 or 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dipstik Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 its hard to say their intent. the buff is twice as long but you get around 1/3rd the stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajedimaster Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 yeah i think it makes more since at 20 secs being that the the others are at 20 they could leave it the way it is and just change the verbiage on the relic it self and then they will not have to worry about messing any of the relics up any more.

Projawa Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I'll stick with my UW SA and EWH BA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otchiver Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 I did parsing for Underworld Serendipitous Relic and the Arkanian Mainstat boost. #1 Found that the arkanian Mainstat boost relic popped more frequently then advertised. #2 Did not interfere with The UW SA relic... both proc'd without issue. #3 I seem to be doing better on parsing without a second UW SA.

theSCARAYone Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 IMO its a tossup between the main stat proc and the kell dragon damage proc for DPS. Heals is main stat proc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugen_no_Jidai Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 So, the real question is whether or not the mainstat relic is actually BIS if it's ever "fixed" to only proc every 40 seconds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otchiver Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 I timed it between 20-40 seconds... i think The mainstat relic is proc'ing normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atschai Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) Theoretically, Mainstat also procs on heals and damage simultaneously same as Kell Dragon SA and below. You can use SA and FR together, one each. Keep in mind that Dread Forged and Orbroan SA do not proc on heals AND damage at the same time, FR does. I've done the math on those: Kell Dragon SA with self-heal, Uptime increased to 48%: 316 AP/120 DPS Underworld SA with self-heal, 48% uptime: 291 AP/111 DPS Arkanian SA with self-heal, 48% uptime: 269 AP/102 DPS Dread Forged SA : 209 AP/79 DPS Kell Dragon SA: 198 AP/75 DPS Obroan SA: 191 AP/73 DPS Underworld SA: 182 AP/69 DPS Arkanian SA: 168 AP/64 DPS Dread Forged FR, self-heal, uptime 70% with 9% Mainstatstat: 211 AP/80 DPS Dread Forged FR, self-heal, uptime 70% : 197 AP/75 DPS Obroan FR, self-heal, uptime 70% with 9% Mainstatstat: 194 AP/74 DPS Obroan Forged FR, self-heal, uptime 70%: 180 AP/68 DPS Kell Dragon internal damage proc: 173 AP/66 DPS Kell Drache kinetic: 163 AP/62 DPS Kell Drache kinetic, Combat, armor pen: 185 AP/70 DPS Dread Forged AP Klick: 162 AP/62 DPS Kell Dragon AP Klick: 151 AP/57 DPS Edited November 15, 2013 by atschai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atschai Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) I meant at the same time, sorry. Thing is, some relics can proc from heals and damage independently if you have a passive ability that heals you while fighting.

Samoth_Nomad Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I spent the day testing relics on my combat sent. After 20 or so parses, here's what averaged out best for me(1st slot relic is obroan SA) Underworld Relic of Kinetic Tempest>Conqueror Relic of Kinetic Tempest>Obroan main stat relic(which is broken on sents, providing a 12 sec. uptime every 20 seconds instead of 40)>Dread Forged relic of Boundless Ages>EW relic of boundless ages For me, the kinetic force dmg proc relics really outshined everything. I don't have the Kell dragon version, but from my testing, I'd say it's the second BiS. The Mainstat relic and the Dreadforged power click were just about on par with each other, assuming you have 100% uptime on cd w/ the power click. Lastly, EWH static 120 pwr, was dead last, about 200 dps behind the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
