Healer Gear gap.... again

[roadkillrobin]

How many do you know that has full Ruin gear??? And how many do you know who been grinding for it????

[Dabbart]

I inspect people quite a lot. I see Ruin gear all over the place. Especially on SnB tanks.

But I fail to see how that is relevant in any way shape or form.

What you want to do is get a 2/2/2 group with everyone playing their defined roles, that gives the maximum contribution.

what you want currently is 3 man party with an offensive healer for pq contribution.

Well, getting a full clear healing set in the game is very hard, ruin is mixed (but its a joke to play mixed class), and getting annihilator u need party or some dps to farm for u the medalions (healers cant kill in rvr). Generaly is more easy to equip dps, (in sc u can collect mercenary set more easy) so u can choose to be dps healer or play in worst armor than tanks/dps around, which isnt the source of a long life.

There isn't really a gap so much as a lack of a proper set.

Now before you all go frothing at the mouth, what I mean by this is that the PVE sets from dungeons where always the better sets for pure healers in both PVE and PVP. More specifically Dark Promise and Tyrant. Can't remember the stats on Sentinel so I can't say if it was better than Anni/Dev combo.

But that's the problem. Up until the revamp for Sov, pvp armor was always a hybrid or DPS oriented set when it came to healers. And since there is no dungeon sets that healers can get this leaves us with mediocre sets over what other classes are able to get for their roles.

Well i have 4 pieces of ruin +1 other item with crit on my AM..casually farmed like what? 2 or 3 days (like 3-5 pqs a day)

You mean the lucky case????

No, what i tried to show is that unless they are very very unlucky, no one should need more then 41 bags. The vast majority of people will need a lot less.

For example, 21 tries for 5th piece is extreme. It is very well possible to get it on the first try (1/5 actually). 20% probability of getting exactly the piece you need is good odds. A lot of people (1 out of 5), will be that ''lucky''.

It is very probable that you'll get that 5th piece inside 10 rolls instead of 21. Actually is it 89% probable.
1-((1-0.2)^10) = 0.89

Even at 5 rolls, you'd have a decent shot of 67% :
1-(1-0.2)^5) = 0.67

Which means most people will need less then 5 tries to get that 5th piece. Only the very very very unlucky ones will need around 21.

Seems you are one of the more lucky individuals

I got 4 shoulders and 3 shoes on my ib.

Some guildmates did the PQ dozens of times and got 0-1 pieces...
