Hi everyone,
We have seen reports that the way stats are distributed in Artifact quality gear containing Crit Rating is causing confusion when compared to Prototype quality gear with Crit Rating. Our intent is that the Artifact gear should clearly look and feel like an upgrade and so we have adjusted the stat distribution of the Artifact gear to be more noticeably stronger to player. The result of this change for players is that any Artifact quality gear with Crit Rating will look and feel stronger than Prototype quality versions.
On live, when players compare some Artifact gear to its Prototype counterpart, they'll see Mastery, Endurance, and Critical Rating all decrease while Power Increases. Players have reported that it's difficult to determine which gear is an upgrade and which isn't.
This gear will be updated to show that when comparing Artifact to Prototype, players will see a large gain in Power and a loss of Endurance, but no change to Mastery or Critical Rating. This will make it easier to determine the Artifact gear is more powerful. Players can see this change on PTS right now.
Example:
What is currently live:
Columi Targeter's Leggings- Rating 320 (blue)
Compared to
Rakata Target's Leggings - Rating 320 (purple)
AFTER THE CHANGE
Columi Targeter's Leggings- Rating 320 (blue)
Compared to
Rakata Target's Leggings - Rating 320 (purple)
Players can expect this change with 7.0.1. Below is a list of items that this change will impact.
