Which Stat is Better: Armor Break vs +% Damage to Boss?

    Between Armor Break and +% Damage to Boss, which stat is better when hitting boss?


    On weapon, +% Damage to Boss has always higher number than armor break.


    1) On brooch, armor break has higher number than +% Damage to Boss stat. Which one I need to prioritize between the two stat?


    2) +% Damage to Boss stat use base character damage or overall damage (with weapon damage) ?


    3) Are both stat useful for Akasha card? (such as grutin army, rita)

    1) Armor break is better. The stat works against all mobs and the more armor break you have, the more effective it is. At minimum, it should be 2% armor break for each % of boss ( not sure about the exact calculations but this should be about right ). Smelters will always be better than valours at any stage.


    2) %boss uses overall damage.


    3) Yes, they are.

    I'm gonna guess this is for Primal prep and if so I'd say Armour Break. Although both stats are very good on a weapon you can substitute the lack of Armour Break on a weapon by using smelters. It really levels to a point how you want to split it or if you even want to bother with Boss Dmg

    thanks for feedback.


    For Catherine card, that give flat 17% damage to boss, actually less useful than crit % card ,right?

    Depends which crit card honestly, if it's shade I'd say keep Shade however from my knowledge I see Everyone run Catherine if they have the card (for primal of course)

    Catherine is one of those cards that just really (personal) DPS contributes in primal.
