Tier 2 Hammerknell Itemization Round 3

Since Round #2, Trion has provided further changes to HK drops.

• Only a few changes so for the rest of the unchanged items since Round #2, please refer to the PTS Update for 24th April 2015.
• Please provide any feedback on the changes here.

Cleric T2 Gear

T2 HK Gear Itemization 3 Cleric DPS

Trion seem to be getting rid of every spell/phys crit item. They’ve all been changed to CP, same with the other classes.

Rilurh, the Vise of Nightfall has also had its proc damage increased from 6,589-7,282 to 7,248-8,011.

Mage T2 Gear

T2 HK Gear Itemization 3 Mage DPS

Quite a few mage changes which seems to reflect the amount of feedback provided by Mages in the feedback thread. A lot of buffs and spell crit has been replaced with crit power.

Lyriet, the Soul Mender has had its proc damage increased from 6,589-7,282 to 7,248-8,011.

Warrior T2 Gear

T2 HK Gear Itemization 3 Warrior DPS

Warrior DPS only has a single change which is a nerf to Greaves of the Fallen General. The Round #2 legs had both CP and AP, which has been reduced to AP-only with some adjustments to the rest of the stats.

Rogue T2 Gear

No changes for Rogue gear since Round #2. Not surprising given there’s only one Rogue feedback post thus far about a ring. Of course, it could just be that Vladd has already gotten the itemization right for Rogues.

Got any feedback? Please provide any feedback on the changes here. You can also check out the unchanged stats from Round #2 here.

More HK Itemization changes. Vladd has stated these will likely remain up on PTS for another week, so they probably aren’t going to appear on Live until earliest next week.
