Gap will shorten after the update, SAM will still likely be better though.
(ftr, my group doesn't even bring a COR but instead GEO+BRD, and my avg Shoha/Fudo on tree hovers around 5k, spikes around 7-8k. SB simply can't come close, it has a rather high Slashing weakness but no aversion to magic, especially not darkness.)
The Shohas Ive seen are hitting 4k at best, but no COR, no Geo and CDC does far worse without those (nvm the utility of SB)

Stop playing with very bad people, I'm even surprised people doing 4k shoha AT BEST can make it to tree.

What kind of CDC set are you using that it can't break 4k on a mob with at least 25% slashing weakness?
Besides that, I have to agree with Ccl, you're playing with super bads. If I averaged less than 4k Shohas on Wopket I'd prolly delete my character in shame. Hell I'd be surprised if I average that low on any of the NMs in that zone

Let's also be clear, we use Madrigals on tree instead of minuets to counteract Flash, so it's not like I'm getting attack buffs out the wazoo. Just GEO DEF down
I've been corrected, we use 1 mad 1 min

Just looked through 5-6 parses. The top average on shoha was 2800. There were spikes to 5-6k but not frequent.

One of many, doesn't include the entire fight or all of the Shohas (including more high ones) but you get the idea. Timestamps included to give you an idea of the frequency of the high hits and that they're not just flukes/windbuffet procs/similar cop-out
I even use my shoha acc set and sole sushi on Wopket, once again to counter Flash in the event it can't be erased promptly. i.e., room to improve damage further with more buffs.

Hrmm, that's pretty significant. Having a hard time thinking a geo and a minuet making up for that difference, but maybe it is (geo 2hr?)

Bolster / Blaze of Glory DEF down is 25% def down which is massive.
Our Koga sams generally average higher than that with just bard buffs iirc (its been a long time).

Sorry, gear collector didnt pull all my gear out and some gear didnt get swapped properly. Here is the set i was using when I we last did Cherti. This gives me 3360 damage with no weather.
ItemSet 324796
I can only assume I was either Firesday or I was getting Fire Weather, because looking back in the chatlogs, this was the damage i was getting
Snprphnx uses Wildfire.
Cherti takes 3844 points of damage.
This set now gives me 4185, no weather

Woah. Still need to upgrade rings though, but that's in the realm of 5k with weather/day.
Quite sexy indeed. (though it's only 2500 on anything not cherti?? or you mean on everything lol... and 10k on Cherti?)

My set, "not optimized yet" no weather, no buffs.
Firesday procs, no weather, no obi
Couple tweaks, still no weather, no buffs. Worth noting, MAB may not always be best in slot anymore... Testing required etc.
Demon ring slot 2 = 4583
Stormsoul ring slot 2 = 4576
So 3 MAB still better than 7 AGI, but not by much. The gap was narrowed by a good amount.
