Is blood key even worth it?

[doublejesus]

Does the loss of passive stats like crit etc get over shadowed by the level advantage? Because if not I don't know that its worth the huge cost of it fighting pvp level 81 vs 81.

Gear score doesn't matter in PvP, so there's no reason to use it for that.

I've seen this posted but doesn't gearscore directly change attack and spell power and damage taken?

naked plus neck is higher than just naked

This is a straight up lie. With 100% rogue blood, beast amulet and frost dodge, I 1/3 the hp of level 70s

It is true. Learn to read the tooltips. Gearscore in PvP have no effect, it only does in PvE.

Maybe not gearscore itself, but what about the stats on a weapon/armor? I'd like to think that matters.

"Your Gear Level compared to the Unit Level of an enemy affects the damage you deal and receive against that enemy. Gear Level has no effect versus other players."

The Blood Key would give you slightly higher spell power, but you would lose the other effects that the previous amulets gave you.

you can see instantly that an 81 hits a 70 with the same ability for harder. PVP doesn't scale.

And you avoided my original question, there are no tooltips for atk/spell damage, the numbers changed based on your item level.

If this was true then the dropped weapons are the best for pvp because they have huge stats on them despite being lower level

So then the best weapons for pvp are the dropped items from the undead, since they have huge stats on them despite being many levels lower. When I tested it, I hit with it on a player much weaker than with sanguine reaper

Gear score does not matter only the stats

Maybe "enemy" and "enemy vampire" is not properly designated yet due to it being early access. at least that's the only explanation.

From my understand on how gear score works, it doesn't increase any of your stats. But rather reduces a hidden damage reduction multiplier against monsters.

Pretty sure it will be upgradable in some future update
