Why does Artifice not have the ability to craft augment kits for the items they can currently make? It doesn't really make sense to me.

OK, come on, some of you really consider getting Talos @ lvl 33 an exploit. I think not.

Stack Defense to 30%, Absorb untill 50% then work on more Shielding. The 37% you are looking at has to be your Damage Reduction, which uses your Armor Rating. Your Defense is proly around 25-30%. For 1% defense you need around 25 more rating, I doubt your actually defence is 37%. I do play a Tankassin. Im our MT over a Jugg and a Powertech. Just for a lil background on why I gave my opiions.
