It is great they are allowing this exchange:)

For those DCs out there,I use the Tiamat set it gives you some +wisdom stats.

The Set bonuses were always supposed to be something minor, something that was nice to have but not necessary. Losty set was overperforming because it accounted for your own buffsv (Ex: Destroyer's Purpose).

I know that this kills the CW's DPS, but I don't think it will make the GWF useless, we just need to work for your damage.

Imo the other sets are of limited usefulness for the DPS players (Losty set target audience).

Valindra set is of little to no usefulness: 15% Control Bonus won't do jack. It turns a 2 second stun into a 2.3 second stun, which is almost unoticable. Plus, the mobs that would be awesome to control (Glabezu/Demon Pig) are literally immune to CC (or get stunned for a second). The + Int is

Imperial/Blice deal more damage, but have a less consistent activation. Better in PvP where they can't be resisted nor deflected.

Seldarine + Lathander sets give stats opposite of what a DPS player would want.

Why would a DPS player want more heals from Tiamat set? Even if you lifesteal, you make up the healing bonus with sheer quantity of hits (CW + TR) or raw damage (GWF).

I'd say hold on to that Losty set and see what happens.

From what I read so far for DPS:
- Keep Lostmauth until you acquire Orcus
- Greater Black Ice is a good alternative

For Tanks, well you shouldn't had lostmauth to start with :)

Hail *NOR/!

All great points!
In the end, an extra hit is an extra hit!

I use (TR) Losty for the extra hit. It tends to make Duelist Flurry and a Stealth-fired Smoke Bomb quite effective.
DC is running Lathandar's..
And my HR, lol, is running Seldarine. Goofy and off-the-wall, I know, but it's effective for her as I run her in a support role.
