Well if it would of made a 59% difference. That would of made up for lack of other good stats..
Now a bigger question. What are they worth?

59/209/20 1% and 1def off p.

I guess ill try rolling crushing blow gloves


20 str is also ed, its essentially 4 40% ed jewels on gloves. It's not nothing, but there are usually better options.

wouldn't 20 str and 60 ed be 2x 40 ed jewels? Not 100% on str to ed conversion but i think its 1 str = 1% off weapon ed for swords and most non bow/javelin/knife/claw weapons.

They change my zealers sheet dmg by roughly 30points.
59%ed only equals 30pts?
The math doesnt seem to be mathing

No wonder i never knew of anyone to use them


Depending on Griefs damage and before all other gear, including fanaticism Rends will add anywhere between 102 to 270 flat damage.

This is considering 60% rends as it made the math easier.

As others have mentioned, rends are for PvP, the damage offered isn’t noticeable on PvM with Zeal it only matters when VSing players with high PDR% which is capped at 50%.

What's the overall defense? 280? If yes might still worth a bit
