Is it worth it? I know well the specs with and w/o AT but im curious. I read somewhere that SR spec increases levi dmg, is this correct or is it derermined by your WS and SR plays no role? Im not interested in the 41 LT since I don't plan to solo on him, in which case a purp v yellow LT is not going to turn the tide of a battle. But if it's true that SR + skill + RR increases the levi proc, then this would be worth grinding w/o flex (personally i love it, whould hate to slog thru 40+ levels w/o it)

any constructive comments are welcome.

Go autotrain
Xping as a Reaver is kinda easy anyway and you will miss the points if you wanna play your Reaver in RvR in the long run.

Exp on Crush up to 40, respecc Crush, use your 10 flex skill till 44 and specc flex, no need to have at to 48, with 44 you reach the 50/42/41 specc the 3 points in parry count much at all.

I don't think autotrain is worth it on reaver. You gain nothing and the side style on flex is lovely for leveling and BGs.

But if it's true that SR + skill + RR increases the levi proc

It's not, levi proc is increased by flex skill and str/dex.

definitely worth autotraining, you wont regret it because xping with crush spec gives you a stun chain and it does probably the most damage. Be very fortunate that its not hard at all when autotraining, compare it to pally/minstrel/scout , so just give it a try!!

so no definitive answers atm. what makes it "worth it"?

the 36 LT is yellow, the 41 is purp, i know the purp is a higher delve and absorbs more %. but come on! In RVR (thats where im weighing up if its worth auto training) a 36 vs 41 LT is not a battle turner. why slog thru 48 levels ( i know its easiest compared to other toons) for a single spell that doesn't have that great an impact in a grp fight anway.

it may not make or break the situation upon groups but its nice to have, more heals for you and more damage on them, up to you. If you dont want to then nobody will force you, just a recommendation. There is also the case of whether you want to be a solo/duo reaver, then that can be a slight bigger impact on the situation where everything counts. What do you really have to lose if you autotrain? Again, up to you, won't bother me at all if you choose not to autotrain and avoid that good chain stun on crush

Not to revive a dead topic, but would like to chime in:

ANother consideration is that soul spec dictates (or its supposed to, not sure here) variance on your Soul quench. Since there is literally no point in templating SR for reasons outside of soul quench, having a 41 spec + 4 from RR when you get SQ means lower variance, if that matters to you.

The lower resist rate, higher damage, and slightly better life return on the 41 tap is also a nice plus for max/min during solo play.

You also manage to get 6 parry if you fully AT. Nothing massive but 3 parry is 1.5 % better chance to parry those 3912836710983 viper 3 assassins knives. So its not a total waste to AT.

- Limited duration expense (leveling time) for unlimited duration reward (tiny benefit in lvl 50 engame). if you plan on keeping the toon, AT. If its just a random toy to log in from time to time, level flex.

- counter argument to that is that if you just level flex, you level and gain rps a little sooner, getting you a jump start on gaining realm ranks. so until you hit that realm rank wall where it starts getting really hard to get another rsp, its probbaly more adventagous to just level flex. sure its nice to AT. but it isnt everything. The highest rr toon on live ever was a non-AT reaver (Siegan).

Are you serious.

Can I believe this?

then If you don't mind

What Ra help to increase proc?

Proc resists and damage depend on weapon skill afaik. So aug dex and auf str should help.
