Would you still pick a WI if FA is also an option?

I was hesitant to go back to my 140 FA (first character) because it requires like 1.2b minimum for 2x +8 amp forcy orbs to not be total garbage.

Who would win in this setup @ level 170 for the above scenarios between an FA and WI?

WI: 2x +12 7/40 Pher Orbs, 48% CR, 205% CD, 36-42% AMP
[cost: 1b to reach 42% amp everything else is essentially free, not counting upgrade costs to +12 for 2 weaps]

FA: 2x +8 7% M.Amp Orbs, 45% CR, 85-101% CD, 54% AMP
[cost: 1.2b for the orbs and 1b to go from 85% to 101% CD]

The FA can still improve by getting +11 orbs eventually, and probably can get 50% more CD eventually but the cost for the 50% extra CD is just ridiculously unrealistic.

lol good luck

Not just that but you also need a 7/40 helm to hit that CR/CD (3 dmg rings) lol.

The +12 scares me a little but if you brute force enough ucm/enhanced cores it'll goto +12 eventually. It's getting the orbs that I fear. +10 would also be very respectable until you had a lot of alz saved up to go into an upgrading frenzy.

+12 Pher is basically a +6 7/40 Topaz or I guess a +9 7/40 Lapis after factoring in a loss of 6 damage from dex while still allocating enough dex for forcium armor. I'm guessing it would give similar damage to a +9ish 7/34 Topaz.
