The only other piece of 100% gear I've received was the dread explorer shell, and I think everyone gets one of those.

I don't understand what this means. :(

So here is a pair I bought from the kiosk last week; hasn't been touched yet, except for light infusion:

How do I reconcile the numbers?

The Sunbreakers Xur is selling have 32 Int and 32 Dis, at 280 light. As you bring up an item's Light via infusion, the int/dis stats scale accordingly.

There is a known "max" int/dis/str an item can have (before you activate the "increase stat" nodes in the perk tree). This "max" varies between different types of gear, but is consistent across all pieces of the same type of gear.

So by applying the appropriate math, DIM can determine the % of max your item is capable of.

If tick the "Enable advanced stat quality comparison features" in the settings window of DIM, you can see a breakdown of each stat individually on a piece of Armour.

TL;DR: For YOUR sunbreakers, DIM has determined that if they were at the same Light level as the ones Xur is selling (ie. the max stat roll), they would only have 83% of the int/dis/str that the Xur ones have.

The question is, does it really matter. And to me, and most of us, I think no. But, if you've got plenty of strange coins and stuff and like the roll, buy the new ones. They're technically better.

That being said, the maxed out stat rolls are nigh inconsequential for normal gameplay, just for the most competitive or hard content.

Tier 12 = Filling 12 of the 15 int/dis/str slots, like so:

I always just try and max out two of the three with nothing in the third.

I don't play all subclasses the same amount, but basically I max out Intellect and Discipline, except for Nightstalker, in which I max Discipline and Strength. With Sealed Ahamkara Grasps, I have something to throw at max every 24 seconds :).

I imagine this is all anyone else tries to do too.

It doesn't cost more to be a 100% roll, so why not use it an an incentive?

What?
