how about visionary > 2 skills? or 2 sockets? my guess is no. your reasoning is biased, you think frw would steal a useful mod, but visionary can do it just as well. ps. 20 res is badass.
just grasp it, visionary sucks, always did, always will. at least for assassins.
How is my reasoning biased? FRW is a suffix, so it must take the place of a suffix. Visionary is a prefix, so it must take the place of a prefix. That's how it works. And yes, 20 res is good, but 4 small charms can make up that 20 res, and the AR gained from visionary is more than you would get from four 20/36 charms.

Building a sin around coa means you are pretty much stuck using coa. You can't swap helms easily enough when built around it.
There's also better things you can do with a 20 fcr sin ammy than wear coa lol...
I'm not saying CoA is the best, I don't even use it myself. I'm saying that CoA can be pretty good when coupled with a 20 fcr amulet (infact, I argue that a CoA + 20 fcr ammy would improve bui's char).
And no, you're not stuck using CoA. You can just as easily swap helms.
