    Hi
    I am currently using a 130 att 16 str pinaka
    Was wondering how much att does a sky ski needs to have in order to beat my current weapon.

    also how much big difference will it make in DPS and is it a good investment and should be my main focus (rather than getting fs/bfc/better gloves and so on)
    Also since we're probably talking about 120+ at least, and prices get much higher.
    would you recommend trying scrolling one myself or just saving for it? What's better down the road money-wise (in your opinion of course)

    Thanks a lot!

    to answer your main qn, it depends. Your total WA (including atk pots) is the determining factor here. You can calculate it yourself based on your total att by multiplying the sum of att when using the faster spear by 1.0645 (w/o si) and 1.074 (w/ si).

    As for whether to focus on atk gear instead, you can probably measure what u should be upgrading by looking at the lowest cost per WA increase. Don't know what your gear is like, so if you want some advice specific to your situation you'll need to provide it, but I personally feel that if you've got at least 30 wa from your gear, you should be moving on to a ski and getting one that you wont feel the need to upgrade from for quite awhile

    scrolling is a give and take really, its up to you and how lucky you feel/how much of a risk taker you are. I personally would buy but then again I just boomed 2b in a ski scrolling session so I might still be slightly salty

    This....i have found something that isnt absolutely accurate but its pretty close......
    If hit over 25k per line avrg(or more) with a ski the. Youre altdy in ski always better situation...(if dont have a ski to try it out just see how much youre hitting with your current pinaka..and if its barely over 25k...then it isnt going to be higher with an ski). If youre not...its the same or a bit better to have a higher att pinaka/faltizan

    you may want to refer to this old discussion.
    i used to have a table in my old com, a 126 ski can easily outperform a 140 pinaka/faltizan (not taking any cape/glove/shoe into account, any additional wa/pots will only increase the gap for ski)
    considering i did not have SI all the time, i did not take SI into the calculation.
