So I made this interesting earring from WOTG with acc and occ damage bonus with tp but I'm not sure if it's doing better than a supa. I'm not sure if I'm capping delay also.. af 3 +2 4/5, ocelot, atheling, twilight, raja's, epona, brutal .. Supa? Something better?

Edit: also I thought regain earring would be a waste with how fast we gain tp already. Opinions? Math?

It's worse than Suppa unless you're capping delay, in which case almost anything is better than Suppa. Unless you have a lot of Haste buffs, you aren't capping delay.

I got a 25 TP Bonus and 4 Attack earring. It's the best WS earring for a huge number of WSs, and I wasn't going to make a regain earring just for delay capped situations on dancer.

That WS earring is a great idea. I was wondering what wouldn't be just situationally useful. Thanks for the info guys.

Weaponskill fTP depends on your TP for some weaponskills (like Rudra's Storm, where TP+25 is +.25 fTP), and things like critical hit rats scale on other weaponskills (like Evisceration). People have suggested exchange rates anywhere between 10TP=1% Crit rate and 5 TP=1% crit rate for crit mod WSs, so it's somewhere between 2 and 5% crit rate on Evisceration and Raging Rush with 4 Attack.

thanks i've always wondered about that, i've looked around but never quite found an answer XD

is the 5% crit rate worth other augments like the "Occ. grants dmg. bonus based on TP +5% " i thought that augment mixed with samba double damage + aftermath would be something fierce, i didn't know if the attack would be worth it hmm..

I have capped Acc with meat against anything I fight these days, so Attack is the obvious choice.

Iirc, Occ. Increases damage with TP gives no increase at 100TP, and up to a 2x increase if you're meleeing at 300TP. It's worthless if you use your TP properly, basically.
