Hey gang, I'm trying to figure out how the score system is working on eqitems.com. I'm currently playing a druid and am trying to figure out BIS. I know WIS is a very easy stat to max end game so I'm not worrying too much over it. But how come items like Siryn Hair Hood score 14025; AC: 5 CHA: +13 SV FIRE: +10 Focus: Burning Affliction II vs Crown of Hatred with a score of 3090; AC: 10 STR: +6 WIS: +6 INT: +6 AGI: +6 Effect: Ultravision The crown seems a lot better? Do we even need CHA other than for charming or buying cheap gear from vendors... Also is PoHate 2.0 live on Agnarr? or 1.0?
eqitems' scoring system is extremely simplistic. I wouldn't use it for anything more than a starting point to do your comparisons.
That one will come down to the focus which is a potential 20% dot damage. That's far better than 6 wis. If you already have dot focus on another item though they don't stack so go for the Crown.
Feel free to decide for yourself which is the better item, that site lists a bunch of the potentially best items available in each expac with handy links to allahs so you can see where/how to get them. No need to treat the rankings as the word of god or anything.
Yeah, like others have said, the scoring system it has isn't perfect. But it lists 10 items and it usually has the best items in that list of 10. You can also create a character on the site and show upgrades by slot, it lists even more than 10 that way.
But the PoHate available on progression servers is the new map, not the original one, so in a sense, it is Hate 2.0, if that's what the original poster means.
EQitems is not all that good for determning what is "Best in Slot" it can give you some suggestions, but don't trust it as gospel truth.
