pierce or synergize?

[overdrive ninety nine]

for a lightning CS/LF javazon, should i max all synergies or put 15ish points into pierce?

[Evrae Altana]

You won't need 15 points in pierce. With +skills, fewer points will be enough.

ok well should i put points into pierce? or leave at 1 so i can use the pts for synergies?

it depends on how many + skills u will have and what belt ...

u want to have ur peirce around 75% ....with a razortail u only need 1 point plus ur + skills ....if u use another belt u want 75% listed on the skill

If you put one point into pierce, and have +6 passive skills somehow, whether +amazon skills or passives, it will give you something like 63% chance to pierce. Pair that with razortail and you are pretty close to 100%, which iirc is 96%. Maybe +1 helm, +1 ammy, +2 gloves and 2 passive GCs you could get by with just one point. It all depends on what you have and what you can get your hands on.
