Hello,

I am over the ballistics 1050 cap wihout the Vanq 110 buff. Which from what I noticed, is up almost all the time.

Should I take out 4x 24 Ballistic gems and put in some weapon skill or wounds?

I am full vanq and genesis and +24 ballistics everywhere but one slot with 24 wounds.

Thank you.

yes, i dont think you get value going that high with BS. Even softcapping BS is not super important.
I run with 940ish BS+ proc from triumphant and 750-830 WS depending what spec im using. if you run snipespec then armor penetration starts to play big role in your dmg very soon.

Also engi is a bit squishy if going full dmg spec. I run 760 wounds+ 60 from lini and frequently blow up to good dps WE. I reckon 8000 hp is kinda good spot to aim for.

Thank you, appreciate it. I am at 8000 hp right now with the current setup, maxxed the wound from pvp talents.
Ok, I will swap four 24 ball for four 24 weapon skill for start :)
