13% Pdr or 2 percent attack?

Hey I'm at a dilemma at the moment, I just got my leafre set for the crusader codex and I had the dead mine one previously. I tried the leafre set on and it added 13% pdr(56-69) but lowered my range by 2k. I was wondering which would be better? I'm a kaiser by the way, and basically should I take +13% pdr or 2% attack(2k range). I tested and it seems the dead mine one hits more sprayed numbers some going higher some dipping lower while my +13%pdr made my damage more stable. So which should I take?

That appears to be confirmation bias. The Leafre set adds 30% pdr, which after multiplying through, results in ignoring 13% more of enemy defense for you. That is a pure dps increase, just like the 2% att is. Your damage will not be more stable in any way, regardless if you get more pdr or more % att. The only things that stabilize damage are closing the min/max crit gap and higher mastery.

You should read up a bit more on pdr, but 30% pdr from the Leafre set is usually better for you than 2% att.

Pdr, the 2% attack is not a big deal
