    Okay Hey guys, I'm a CR 80 HL DPS and my DPS is OKAY but i could do better. But anyways My stats are: Might-1500 and Perc-462. And ive heard quantum is really good and fairly simple. If I don't like quantum I still have my Light badge that makes me HL again but I just wanted to know what you guys say: HL or Quantum, and if you say Quantum what are some loadout ideas?

    P.S IK IK it is all my decesion but I just wanted some different opinions.

    HL! their DPS is insane for pve
  3. Lightful New Player

    They're both effective for dps.

    Choose one that suits you. Don't be so obsessed with the numbers on the board.

    If you can deal sufficient damage and still maintain efficiency then you're a good dps.

    - Thanks for reading.

    Edit: A more appropriate title would be "Light or Quantum".

    Yeah I know it didn't sound like a good name and I tried to change it but..

    Thanks for the advice. I was kinda fixed on the numbers so I'll just go with witch ever suits me best.

    Thanks Again

    I'd say HL just because I feel it's the best all rounder, not is it just great in PVE raids but its also great for alerts duos an challenges an with the infinite combo loop you can save your self so much power an deal constant damage.

    i just feel that for 80 cr your precision is too low to see the capabillities of hl. im 82 cr with 886 precision

    I am pretty sure Quantum is the FOTM you should definitely switch over.

    as hl your numbers are based on precision.
    why is your precision so low?

    If you want to do easy top damage go HL and go all prec.

    I used Quantum on my alt for a bit but got so quick bored and went back to Sorc that I even forgot to buy the controller T3 style. Wasted respec token with a double meaning >.<

    If you like to faceroll yourself over the keyboard, it may suits you, my cat got pretty pissed about it that I rolled her over it instead of mine :oops:

    Quantum is beastly, gadgets is beastly, light is beastly, mental is beastly. All of those are beastly from max range. Gadgets, and light are better in melee situations, and light requires being at least mid range to maximize ranged damage.

    I've seen a fire guy in Nexus do hellacious damage from mid range. If Fire can do it, then Ice can too from mid range.

    Hey, I would like to point out the following: HL is prec Based from what i see you doing it all wrong u must focus first in precision. A good 95+ cr HL dps would have around 1100 prec and around 2000might with normal (V mods). Before you decide to change hit 90+ cr focus on precision then judge the power. Quantum is awesome too but PVE wise HL beats almost everything in good hands. Used to be one but now im back to my old power set. However, its up to you on what you wish to play i only wanted to point out that at your cr and with your current stats you cannot have a full view of the powerset. Regards D4rk

    Screw you :mad: ;)!

    I enjoy Quantum at the moment but if you are talking about doing the numbers only, I'd say Light has the edge - I barely keep up with those guys, takes a lot of effort in terms of clipping but if you nail it, it's great.

    I'd say it also depends on whether your pc or ps3. On pc HL will always do the best because pc can clip faster. On ps3 there all equal.

    biggest nonsense ever i play with a gamepad on pc and i'm at least as good or better than other hl's using a mouse and keyboard

    Both Light and Quantum are BOTH beast powersets.

    Quantum is the might version of Light.

    It is personal preference that I like light more, considering I do not like how might works.

    However, if you want Quantum, Gravity Bomb is a must have for your loadout.

    what you enjoy is what you should play. but with those stats i would say Hard Quantum. you need more Prec for Light.
