costume brawl weapon choice?
themickman
it is obvious that health and energy mods on the weapons during the costume brawl are worthless, but do halves casting time, + armor, and mastery mods still work? if so, what combination of mods would be the best for an ele?

I would use a 40/40

I believe 20/20 mods do work. Have a 40/40 set with an enchanting secondary set to switch to whenever you use fire attunement, aura of restoration (use it as a cover enchant against mesmers and necros), or flame djinn's haste.

Yea, I've found that a 40/40 set works nice.

40/40 set ... = 24/24 set , 20 x 1,2 / 20x1,2
... its not 40% 40% but 24% 24%

Actually, it's 32% of 1/2 cast / recharge and 4% of 1/4 cast.
20% * 80% * 2 = 32% = chance of 1/2 cast / recharge
Wand Yes Focus No / Wand No Focus Yes
20% * 20% = 4% = chance of 1/4 cast
Wand Yes Focus Yes
20% * 80% * 2 = 32% = chance of 1/2 cast / recharge
Wand Yes Focus No / Wand No Focus Yes
20% * 20% = 4% = chance of 1/4 cast

QUARTER RECHARGE IS NOT AVAILABLE, IT TURNS OUT. QUARTER CAN ONLY APPLY TO CAST

You can't get quarter recharge. Only half.

I see...they must have updated it and I didn't pay attention...
You can get quarter cast though, right?
