This build is pretty straightforward to gear:
Prowess set for filigrees (5 piece)
Silent Avenger Set (3 Piece - Cloak, Belt, Armor)
Mists Set (5 Piece Gloves, Goggles, Ring/Pinnacle, Ring, trinket/echo raven)
With 12 equipment slots, you have 4 leftover to play with (neck, boots, helmet and bracers). You can use those for Shroud or Slavers set, or whatever.
The big base damage numbers claimed in this thread require ALL of the above gear (including the raid shuri and 5 piece prowess which in my opinion are the hardest to acquire, for me so far anyway).
To get that 1000+ first number on a red named you need:
All the gear and set bonuses above
10 stacks in blitz
RP action boost
20% stacked invuln
around 100 dex
KtA boosted with an int swap (anything works, I use a 15/7/2Festival Int cloak)
My max damage calcs put base damage with new shuri around 180-200 with 100 Dex, maxed out deadly, etc. With the 360'ish MP you get boosted with this build with a few mythic MP items, you're looking at about 850'ish base damage. Add 20% vulnerability and voila, ~1000'ish base damage for that first number.
There may be some damage sources I haven't taken into account, or exploits/overperformance issue I have not correctly identified in my calculations.
Yeah, I get most of that. That's why I had all my assumptions listed already in that post. I wanted it actually listed because a) other people may not know and b) I want to make absolutely sure I'm not missing something.
For the record, I've already got prowess, which I found fairly easy to acquire (then again, I have three players sharing all of their filigrees over twelve accounts). I have blitz, boost, and KtA going pretty much at all times. I'm not sure how to get invuln and only have 78 dex (no racial past lives, no yugo pot, no spectacles, and no non-prowess dex filigrees). Having those would put me at 87, so I'm not sure where the other dex comes from.
