________________________________
Disclaimer: This is nothing more than a visual look at the equipment for SAMs from 1-75. It does not include specialty weapons/armor such as equip needed for /RNG. For the armor, I did not include the low level gear items needed to upgrade gear dropped in Salvage. I only included stat armor. For the level ranges (generally lower lvl) where there are no +stats for sams, use whatever is appropriate for the level.

milich wrote:
there's a mild misunderstanding about crit rate going on here. crit rate is NOT like haste; it does NOT get better the more you have. in fact, it gets slightly worse the more you stack it (every 1% crit rate you add to your current rate has a slightly lower % DoT bonus). i gave a very quick illustration of this on the DRK forums very recently if you don't see why. if you want i'll come back and explain again here (the short version is: your total DoT is a number that gets bigger for every crit, but every crit adds a static amount to your DoT. therefore, every crit adds the same number to a constantly increasing number, therefore each crit% point adds a lower DoT % increase)
edit: here's the explanation on the drk forum.
