Dilemma with charms (BvC)

I believe you need to have a balance, personally i have little bit of both, but more max damage. Also i dont think we can say one of those uber charms mentioned by Ce is necesarilly better than the other one, you just have to make the right "mix" with them. Which is what i do.

No, with enough 32020s, you will hit 10k ar with CoA, which is all you will need. Ar/life gcs are a budget choice

I hate to come busting through with this yet again, but have you possibly considered that max/ar/life charms are actually only good on low level duelers? Blobz himself said that switching to AR charms he only lost about 100 damage over 3/20/20s. Compare that to an AR/life sc that can get up to 36AR(80% more AR) and 20 life. Now compare that to an AR/life GC with a max of over 130 AR (as opposed to 108AR for a GC's worth of 36/20s) and high life. For a BvC the huge AR difference isn't necessarily that big of a deal, but if you're actually trying to be a BvA (which most "BvCs" do) then the AR is entirely necessary. Either way the 100 or so damage you lose over max/AR/life charms is hardly going to matter, so the only real dilemma is do you want a LOT of high life SCs for higher life, or higher AR GCs for higher AR.

Of course, 10k ar is all that you really need in public games. Besides, 36/20s are difficult to obtain.

Yeah, 10k AR is all you need till the first time you have to fight a 40k def exile smiter.

Those are actually pretty easy if you have widow maker. Shoot a Guided arrow, switch, and ww. If they stay put, OW will get them sooner or later. Even if they walk/run, you're still faster. If they charge, they run into ww and lose life.
