Careful there, you need to subtract 7% AS and add 750 Dex
7% as = 84 077
750 Dex = 110 526
-7% AS + 750 Dex = -84077 + 110526 = 26 449 Nett Increase
CHD = 53 787

Hmm,

I rolled those numbers usiing my current ammy (the Ouro is equipped) which has the same ChD and slightly higher ChC (0.5) but does not have any AS.

What the numbers are telling me is that if I add

7% AS or
600 Dex or
23% ChD

to my current toon, the Dex will benefit me the most.

I do have to take into account that for AS and ChD I can do a straight comparison to the existing - for Dex I can't since I have to subtract the current 696 dex (come to think of it, that makes rolling for Dex even more compelling since when I equip the MW, I lose 700 Dex when I add the 7% AS).

Ha ha, it's all fun though...

Thanks for all the input everyone :D

Too much typing and not enough farming for those pants!

So Sinbad is cursed.

I'm playing solo rifts getting the the odd leg drop, Rich joins my game suddenly I'm running all over the map picking up legs that are dropping behind him, Rich leaves Sinny joins and suddenly it's drier than the middle of the Namib desert on a mid summers day :p

Depends what % of your dmg that 40k is. If you are pushing over 500k, which everyone should be by now, then the 16% lightning dmg will more than make up for the 40k sheet dps.

what method have you guys found best to farm for materials?

going via Bounties, or doing a "Select Quest" from Campaign mode?

It's dependant on the mat you're after, which brings us to the question, what are you after?

Man alive Crusaders are so insanely strong. I thought my DH did lotsa damage. I was so very wrong, seeing how Archer and the likes just stomp through T4 before us poor DH's even get a shot off in anger. @Africantech !

You can say that again.

Crusaders are the new Barbs - with the removal of the speed handicap, they are, with the right equipment, insanely fast and strong.
I felt like like I was wading through molasses at times.

To be honest id rather play in a group of less strong players, and enjoy it. Rushing through like that is great for farming but not as enjoyable to me personally.

I'm used to Crusader (a DH player to avoid confusion) with his sentries melting everything, so it was a big surprise for me to be out DPS'ing you guys

But yes, Crusaders are insanely OP (or maybe I'm used to the tickling that monks do), so much damage output and once you get the full set Akkhans with decent CD it gets rather silly. Really brought the fun back into the game for me :D

Dont know yet, no clue what to reroll for the socket - the 9% CR is soooo useful (brings my downtime on Akkhan to 28s from 31s), but losing 1000str or 20% fire to keep the CR is also silly... Leaning to letting the CR go and hoping for a good shield with CR

lots of mat drops are linked to bounties, so I usually do the bounty runs looking for the relevant quest, can get a bit tedious restarting games to get the right bounty, but that's the nature of the game if you really want the mat
