Skagerberg Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 What exactly am I after first and foremost? I assume it's only a matter of time like most BW games before 2 of those three are removed for simplicity issues. As for right now. I'm placing 99% of my stats into Def before Shield Rating, putting shield rating 2nd, and absorb 3rd.
Atamasama Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I think you have it right. We are horrible with shields, worse than the other two tanks. However, our avoidance is the best (yes, we even have more avoidance than Shadows, by about 1%). Play to your strengths and focus on Defense. Plus, a successful parry or dodge lets you avoid damage completely, while a successful shield attempt will only block 20-30% of the damage from the attack.
theothersteve Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Here is the spreadsheet if you're interested: http://sithwarrior.com/forums/Thread-Tanking-stat-spreadsheet-online The short of it is, Defense is your best stat by such a margin that you generally don't want anything else. So you're doing it right.
