If you're capped, and you TARudra a victim. You're still capped. It does NOTHING to LOWER your enmity.

Trust me, he refers to them as victims in ls chat too.

I too broke to spend on mdt/pdt skirmish gear, wkr piece will do the honor. I do have other piece for body but I prefer the high acc and hp from bayld body
You can macro in Avalon breastplate for the time being of you want; it's like 50k and mdt+5%.

are we still in 2004?, that ***have low defense and low hp bonus, not to mention low acc.

I like cute and fluffy. I can put in twilight, dring, emet, merman, etc. but I usually don't have to put in a full-on dt set on thf (do for mnk) still missing that lithe. head. though.

Not sure what you mean by getting hate by merely attacking and then saying you dont have to weaponskill to get hate and making me inferior. I'm not claiming to be the best thf, but I stay alive easier on it than any other dd.

I'm not a fan of carrying billion of sets, and if I'm already lowing the dmg down to manageable level, then why bother carrying that many set. beside that plate have 0 mdb.

My point was, it's easier to distribute hate as thf than another dd. With that said, many times dds are going to take dmg regardless (sans you pussy rangers!)

Yes and no. THF doesn't really shift hate around, Decoy shot does that. TA only takes 1 hit damage, and gives it to the Victim. Which essentially does nothing, with the way enmity works. It's great for a couple seconds. /joy

Now if Trick was a STANCE which it *** SHOULD BE... then you'd be right.


Yea i guess distribute wasn't the best word. Back to my viper bite though - it does somewhat reasonable dmg stacked now - if you are having serious hate problems. I still am baffled though; I may be in parties with exceptional tanks, im topping dmg many times and having an easier time surviving on thf (on hard mode BCs mostly)

"white box" mentality. If you're surviving as is, do it up. The point of having good/better/best sets is for your healers benefit. And overall good times.

I still don't see your point of macro in that plate, sacrific huge stat boost/hp/acc for something with 0 benefit. it is so easy to cap mdt with shell and ilvl gear. the next stat boost should be MDB.

So back to the pdt, Is the reason Lithelimb and Umuthi over Iuitl because of accuracy? And is it safe to assume I should just not care about gearing for evasion ever, because anything that is strong enough to hit hard I have no chance of capping eva on.

It was josiah's reco, not mine, I said this:

The object is not to WEAR the plate, it is to BLINK into it for 1 second to absorb the magical hit. I agree that it's a poor choice, vs basically any 119 piece though, due to MDB.

He was just trying to help you out, not sure what made him think of that instead of wayfarer's coat, but we all make mistakes. possibly a no shell scenario?

It's more fun to camp sandworm than build sparks.
