I am sure a lot of people would say that the more properties & effects you can put on your char the better. But I would appreciate feedback by those who have actually tested this instead of theorycraft. Thanks ahead of time.
This post assumes being able to sustain either 1.25 s or 1.5 s swing speed. Using Mace & Shield with max 50 imbued effect on a weapon: is there a definite improvement to having 30 HLD & 50 HLA vs 80% HLD only?
As a sampire you cannot survive without hitting. The highest end mobs can have extremely high skills that affect your chance to land a hit, even with maxed DCI & 120 weapon skill. Can 30% HLD be enough?
On the other hand, you cannot finish a fight when you are dead. The highest end mobs hit like a semi truck. Not getting hit keeps you alive.
