Either way. The small gear changes boosts the performance of pure jav and allows gt spec without changing gear/sockets.
Addresses the main weaknesses of javazon being 100% deadly/high boss dmg/ridiculous aoe dmg
Sbs/wolverine/knuckles/conqueror 2p piece/black void are just poor equipment choices given the available choices.
Titans does more dmg than thrillseeker if you're getting melted, otherwise thrillseeker has a higher base/boss dmg/multi-player performance.
There's a lot more... but don't wanna overwhelm. Those changes should be adequate for showing the performance increase
It's drastic.
Ripstars only beat Knuckles with UMOs, which I purposefully leave out of all my guides. Same with GT setup, you need a relic which I almost always leave out of the guides, so there's not a huge price increase on them.
I could consider adding Arrogance, but the trophies required are a huge investment. Not sure a guide meant for new players is the best place for such a recommendation.

GT/Javazon is not that great, if u compare it to GT nec/GT barb/GT Azure pally, not to mention scorpion sin/mana wolf/physical bear/poison dru/wyrd sorc this season. Ofc, it is surely a good bd. I played GT zon last season with full UMO gear. And I would say, it is just normally good.
Expose weakness being a curse from last patch hurts her boss damage a lot, and even more in labs. And the nerf for Tantrum also kills the Valkyrie's Prime bowzon going java passives and other Tantrum builds. Not to mention the nerf for Crystal of Tears...
Last season only Crescent Moon crystal sword GT zon/Ice Breaker Stag Bow zon which are abusing IED base bug can be called great. And this season, maybe only with the new relic bug. If no bug abusing, I dont think Java/GT zon in 2.3/2.4 version is still that great like in 2.2.
