So I don’t need cbf but I like the stats of a raven. My idea is to out spec the raven.

Raven stats: 250 ar 40 mana 20 dex

So this is my idea:

5% Bonus to Attack Rating
+120 to Attack Rating
+15 to Dexterity
+37 to Life
+80 to Mana
+30 Lightning resist

And replace 2x charms with 36 ar scs.

So if my math is correct I’m sitting right at 252 ar 20 more life 40 more mana? Is it even worth it or have I over thought the raven.

5% AR is a rather meaningless stat. Would be better off with an additional suffix such as Str or life rep or -25% PLR or 10fcr

I was thinking at 10k to 12k ar that 5% would be 50-60 ar. It doesn’t seem much worth it now that I put it out there to be looked at.

It’s 5% of your base AR. Not your total.

Your base AR will be likely in the 2-3.5k range depending on char type and gear based on what you are saying.

That’s 100-175.

The extra 130 AR on raven frost is scaled by your AR% bonuses, usually in the 400% range. Making that 130 x (1+4) = 650. Where 1= accounting for % conversion and 4 = 400% represented as an integer multiplier.

650 > 100-175
