so has anyone done the math yet as i would still say deep is better and just add the decay armor and decay rune this way u still get the set bonuses or do ppl think using the decay set and adding the deep shield and hammer gives better stats
let see thoses stat finders do there math and just give some feed back if u know

- it helps you past levels 80-90 (hard ones without)
- pairs well with Mancrusha
- can be used till 125 at least.
Decay has very few advantages:
- the +15% master crafter - I dont think any other way to get this under level 180.
- it is somehow more damage oriented (a good thing) - frees the weapon slot too.
- somehow better for forging - items with only 2 attributes, including damage
- much, much cheaper.
- parts of it could be good - the rune (obviously) or the helm, till Ilami.
Decay will be the "poor man's" Deep. After you crawled through 85-90 - it will take you up to 130-140 even (pairs well with Dark ethal shield, good weapons, and even mancrusha parts (if you could not afford Deep, you won't afford Mancrusha either). Since the rune will be used by many people not actually using the full set (deep and Mancrusha users too) - I foresee a high devaluation of the other Decay parts.
Did I mention I felt cheated on this LE ? Cause I sure did.

Decay > Deep people!
yes DECAY > DEEP
it gets you through the horrible 110-115 range where you really cant one hit everything.
A) You still get to keep the Hammer of the Deep
The helmet will rival Illami when people actually get off their high horse and look at it
C) The armor actually has like ARMOR on it .. which is a sight for sore eyes.
D) You actually get to put a power shield on (Battle Shield of the Kossak, or Cracked Lava Shield)
E) Piercing and Crit are maxed! And you dont have to worry about deep's silly 120% dodge anymore
F) Master Crafter? Ya Ill take it.
Now you say OMG what about the 120 Deep/Mancrusha combo your losing that!
umm no
anyone in their right mind changes weapons at 121 anyway so heres what i will be doing @ 120:
Mancrusha (Ring, Armor, Ammy, Boots)
Decay (Rune, Helmet)
Deep (Gloves, Hammer)
Cracked Lava (Shield)
As you can see im only lvl 115 so i have no hard evidence but I think this will be a suitable replacement for the deep/mancrusha combo at 120

All I miss out on is a little damage, but as my attack is decent I can hit for enough. I also do not have the glass jaw Decay wearers have (hp wise).
I got attacked by a player yesterday who was wearing a full decay set. Yes I died, but I would have anyway as they got the first hit. What amused me was the player than informed me that I had messed up (by not having the decay kit I assume).
