How will full conflate compare to vm8 and the future of conflate?

Hi guys, I wanted to make a discussion about full conflate and vm8.

I wanted to know if full conflate will be better than vm8 +12 or at what enchantment vm8 starts beating conflate at?
Now we all know conflate will receive buffs, weapon in particular getting a 7% buff and full gear receiving 20% in total? But I want to know if conflate will get nerfed in the near future after the patch, because new gear generally means they will tone down old gear so people can shift to the newer one but if this will be the case will conflate still be worth getting?

Also if anyone can provide any nice info on conflate weapon against vm8 weapon and how well that compares to each other that would be great! Because I am trying to get conflate weapon as my 1st piece so this will make my choice very clear if I know what to expect and the life expectancy of the gear itself.

Lastly despite this weird username you can just call me Madheadjosh as thats my ingame name.

Let me know what you guys think!

Cheers!

  • Imo conflate +12 is prob vm8 +12, that extra line does wonders
  • Looking at the translations....

    Conflate will be able to stand up to vm8.

    But overall,

    1) Conflate top BiS for PvP

    2) Vm8 weapon BiS for pve pvp

    Overall Vm8 will be better but not by much. Conflates buff will be enough to keep you in the game though.

    Bottom line: +12 CF = Vm7 +14 after patch

    CF +12 = Vm 8 +10

    The difference in the end is trivial however if you lack in skill.
  • Additional: If you're not a dps class don't bother with a CF weapon. It's wierd but bluehole left out a dmg line on brawler and lancer weapons.

    conflate will have similar stats to v8m but has one less line, vm8 +15 will be better
  • @Ellucidation What piece are you referring to? Because that's not true for all pieces
  • I don't know all details but conflate +12 > vm8 +15 on the gloves SOLELY for healers and belt due to the increased defense, boots is still uncertain.
  • Boots you want is Vm8.

    Top you want for PvP is Conflate

    Gloves Vm8 or conflate depends on your class.

    Belt Vm8

    Weapon Vm8 unless you're dps class in which case CF is fine.

    I'm speaking purely from a brawler perspective. Anyway good luck with it
  • Hey guys,

    didn't realise this was an active post but I made one awhile ago where people answered my questions and gave good answers and spreadsheets, if you're still wondering what you should go for check out this forum post I made and take a good read and then you will probably figure out what is best for you.
