seals

[vaddar]

what is the best aug for the new seals is it the sp one or the int one?

[Nankoto]

It looks like it is going to be the Shimmering Naga Scale, which gives both Int and SP.
As of now, straight Int augs are only giving +5, which equals an extra 2.5 sp.
AP/SP/Dodge augs are giving +3 to their respective stat.
A split stat aug will give +3 and +2. So it seems that the split stat augs will be best for the seals.
Plus, all offhand runes will also now affect seals to my knowledge.

Yes, you can put one handed weapon runes on seals. Like Int. +10 or SP +9. As of now. Before any changes :/

Quick question, what are mage stat weights/dps values for crit once you are capped? It's obviously worth something, but how much (esp. in comparison to SP)?

In windstorm's spreadsheet he gives a crit rating after soft cap of about 15sc:1sp after cap. There's always going to be argument about specifics, but that seems about right.

Just to add, it may different for Mages, but for Warriors, the 1h/ranged/off hand stat Runes could not be added onto the seal. Only Attack Power/Spell Power. (For my tank I bought the 10 Str rune to add to my Endurance Seal for a little extra Block but found it was only for 1h/Ranged still.)

In windstorm's spreadsheet he gives a crit rating after soft cap of about 15sc:1sp after cap. There's always going to be argument about specifics, but that seems about right.

So for those crit capped the order of preference is something like:

Shimmering Naga Scale +5 SP
Pristine Golem Core +3int +2SP (3.5SP total)
Flawless Etherialite +5int (+2.5SP total)

Shame the Naga Scales are so expensive. 200p on my server
