TStrokes Vs. Titans

[Gandolph]

Everyone seems to have an opinion on this, but I was wondering if there was any statisical evidence of which is better. I'm using Tstrokes at the moment and I seem to be doing pretty well. Just wondering if Titans would make a noticeable difference.

Assuming you're talking about a +4 T-strokes, I still prefer the Titans. Besides the lower requirements and life steal, I really like the higher stack size (140 vs 80) with replenish quantity. I'm not that impressed with the lower resist and extra lightning damage on the T-strokes. Up to you though!

Whatever you do, don't fall for a ethereal T-Strokes...:rolleyes:

So it seems to boil down simply to a matter of preference. If you up Titans then the requirements equal Tstrokes, and I am using Dracul's gloves for life tap, so life steal isn't an issue. As for stack size, I only find it to be a minor inconvenience to go back to town for repair. Although, not having Titans maybe I just don't know what I'm missing.

Thanks for the tip on ethereal Tstrokes. I'll keep that in mind. :wink3:

I get that. I was just wondering why? statisitcally, they are pretty close. I thought maybe I was missing something.

[vasya]

well maybe u will have more dmg with TStrokes but its not that important
Titans got nice mods like 30frw dex str that what ppl are looking

[Gandolph]

Ahh! That's what I was looking for. Thank you vasya.

Don't forget the self-repair. I definitely wouldn't want to have to go back to town every couple minutes to repair TStrokes. That being said, I do keep a set of them on switch with a 'Spirit' shield for CSing.

[Gandolph]

So, from a max dmg perspective, would you all agree that Tstrokes is better but Titans is more well rounded.

[PhatTrumpet]

If we're talking purely lightning damage, then yes, you've hit the nail right on the head. It's the -15% enemy lightning resist mod that makes TStrokes shine, but you ultimately have to weigh that against all the other benefits of Titan's.
