You clearly did not look hard enough, as there's been plenty of discussion on this topic, including several posts in this thread already, plus multiple spreadsheets posted in other threads to help you find the answer on your own. See also: http://elitistjerks.com/f31/a34-forum_rules/, #7.

Original Post:

So I decided to check out what shadowpanther was suggesting as the 'ultimate rogue pve set' and I noticed it only had 2 pieces of Valorous gear, the rest were the ''best in slots.'' Suggested was:

[Valorous Bonescythe Helmet]
[Valorous Bonescythe Pauldrons]
This puzzled me... so I did a little research:

[Valorous Bonescythe Breastplate] MAEP: 273 (-37 MAEP from suggested [Chestguard of the Recluse])

[Valorous Bonescythe Legplates] MAEP: 279 (-30 MAEP from suggested [Leggings of the Honored]

[Valorous Bonescythe Gauntlets] MAEP: 216 (-27 MAEP from suggested [Frosted Adroit Handguards]

So judging from MAEP Values the best 4 piece set would be the Helm, Shoulders, Leggings, Hands. With a total of -57 MAEP lost compared to the best in slot.

What would the value of 5% reduction to the cost of combo moves be? it seems pretty nice to me but at the same time unclear if its value would outweigh the stat reduction.

I didn't see if this was addressed anywhere else, sorry if it was and i just didn't see it.
