Shaman Gear Question

[Coar]

I follow the Entropy and Chaos Guide (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wLq ... hi5roegx1w) and i just swaped from 5 VW/3Sent to Vanqisher like the Guide told me.

But with this change i loose 116 statpoints, 2%healcrit and 263 Armor.
The Question now is: are the 2 Procs on Vanq rly worth this loss? and why?

Pls only answer with a good Reason, thx

The problem is you are going from having 6 set bonuses to having just 5 because of the 2 jewelry slots that make the sets lose their bonuses. It's not worth it imo for scenarios or small groups.

Keep in mind that the guide is "Warband-ready". In a warband your defensive stats may not be as important as the cast speed increase. For example, in keep or fort defense you are pretty much just spamming group heal, at which point cast speed and ap >>>> any defense.

Since you have both, why not change gear depending on the situation?
