Epic Mabar Wraps as BBs in Shroud?

[Four20]

I have been using +5 Holy Handwraps of Lesser Construct bane, but yesterday I heard someone using the Epic Mabar wraps while fighting portals. I brought it up, and was told that due to the dmg proc can do, it is a far superior BB for portals.

Is this true?

I also heard the Mabar wraps(someone else was using) proc dmg against Harry later(I could have just been hearing things, but im almost 100% sure). I didn't bring it up, but was curious are those better wraps to use in a normal Shroud run than my +3 GEOB wraps?

When the proc goes off itll do like 350-400 damage but i think its like 2% chance. Much like a lightning strike % chance. I dont think they out dps +5 GEOB handwraps if youre shintoa and have ToD HB ring or ToD shin set bonus but arent bad if you dont have that. remember +5s act as +9 weapons along with 3d6. Ive seen the numbers somewhere and if im remembering right +5 GEOB wraps won out.

I did some testing on the portal out in the reaver refuge between my epic wraps of light and my +3 greater construct bane wraps.

After ~15 portals if the wraps proc the radiance blast once they are about even, if it happens twice they pull ahead.

Just my 2 cp.

Epic mabar Wraps are +6 damage, Plus 1d6 Light + 1d10 on crits light damage + Proc.

They make for FIne Portal beaters..

Not sure what this has to do with Blade Barriers.....

I believe the term BB's is what the Euro folks acronym for 'Boss beaters', which is equivalent to the American version of 'DR breakers'. at least thats how I understand it. I don't know the math and I'm too lazy to compare the DPS between these wraps and dr-breaking wraps. I imagine they out-dps a pair of +5 metalline with holy burst on a tod ring though, not exactly positive.

That's what I thought, but what is confusing in this thread, is that the OP asks about "BB"s to use as portal beaters, not boss beaters or DR breakers. Portal DR can't be broken.

they make excellent portal beaters, as ranking them DPS-wise versus Arraetrikos, someone else will have to break those numbers down (as i am not familiar with monk DPS numbers at all)
