Fend, Jab, and IAS: I have a question. Does anyone have an answer?
My spearazon will use an upgraded 200%ED Lycander's Pike. She will fend multiple targets and jab individual ones. I will not be putting any points in dodge, avoid, or evade and I will not have a valkyrie. I am hoping to avoid the fend bug in this way.
These are the relevant fend breakpoints:
54 IAS 13/6
80 IAS 12/6
83 IAS 11/6
These are the relevant jab breakpoints:
56 IAS 24 frames
65 IAS 23 frames
75 IAS 22 frames
86 IAS 21 frames
My gear depends upon the answer to this question:
Is it worth the sacrifices in gear to get 90 IAS? It will shorten the beginning fend cycle by two frames and the jab cycle by three. Will this extra attacking speed make a big difference?
Here are 2 of my potential choices for overall gear:
1. Cats Eye, Fortitude, Kira's 'UM', Verdungo's, Waterwalks, BK Ring, Rare Mana Leech Ring, 20 IAS Rare Gloves: +4, 90 IAS, 160 Resists, +40 Vitality, +200 Life, 15% PDR
2. Maras, Fortitude, Kira's 'BER', Verdungo's, Waterwalks, BK Ring, Rare Mana Leech Ring, 20 IAS Rare Gloves: +6, 90 IAS, 165 Resists, +45 Vitality, +200 Life, 23% PDR
I apologize if this comes across as one of those 'will my ridiculous high-end set up work?' threads. I have spared little expense in trying to make a fending amazon viable. I was just hoping for some input for someone with experience before I spend points. I do not want to have to rebuild her yet again.
I appreciate any and all comments. Thank you.
