Essence Armor

Considering redoing my essence gear for my cappy. He currently runs in red tree primarily.

Any one have a good essence build for DPS? :P

wondering what are u expecting? u wanna some build, but u didnt bother to mention for what...

getting replies with basics, u probably dont need... also Build, as it depends on overall math, with Virtues and Relics aswell +your unknown gameplay, amount of your slots (DA or Osgi set? 3slot jewelries?)

saying 2-3 crit defs, 2-3tact mits, some finesse (depends on your jewelry), some incomming healing (your gameplay), some morale... but just few, if not t2 runs/RT/WB/Raids... rest i use Supreme mights, as it benefits into both masteries (and i have boosted RC to max, same for Heals)


but thats all what can be said here and now, even i admit, i would like some discussion and more ideas... i am still improving and tweaking my red guy, looking for yellow gear atm, for 3man t2 runs

Right now I only have 2 - 5 Slot Pieces of Essence armor. So using my armor as an example I typically go
Head - 3 Supreme Might 1 Supreme Morale
Shoulders - 3 Supreme Might 1 Supreme Morale
Chest - 3 Supreme Might 1 Supreme Morale
Gloves (5 Slot) - 2 Tact Mitigation 3 Supreme Morale
Legs (5 Slot) - 4 Supreme Might 1 Supreme Morale
Boots - 2 Supreme Might 1 Supreme Finesse 1 Surpeme Crit D
Neck - 2 Supreme Morale 1 Supreme Crit
Bracelet - 2 Supreme Morale 1 Supreme Crit
1 Gold Ring - Essence Of Retaliation
1 Gold Ring - Supreme Finesse

This translates too
Morale - 27k Morale
Mitigation - 60% Physical and Tactical
Crit D - 51%
Mastery - 54k
Crit - 28%
Finesse - 24.2%

In my opinion it´s kind of useless to slot mitigation and crtical defence essences for red line

Without these essences we run the new instances in like 20 minutes (6-man) without dying a single time, but doing it with 20k more mastery

So I just don´t see the use of these essences (on red)

maybe for random groups?!

P.S.: I also think the retaliation essence is not very good in pve for the procs are way to diffcult to get
