Justcae Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) Please have someone who actually plays (and knows how to) a Vanguard design the mods/enhancements of future armor sets. The current set is so laughably horrible. With the original Blackhole/Campaign set if you did not agree with the Mod/Enhancement you could atleast compensate by buying a Blackhole piece with the proper stats. Future note going forward (if you are actually taking suggestions)... 1. Accuracy is horrible for tanking Vanguards (arguably all but that's a different aside). Improving the hit chance of your hammershot/HiB provides -next to nothing- for Vanguards. Accuracy competes with Shield. Shield is -the most important- stat. It works hand in hand with Abs (1:1 ratio). When you shield an attack you get bonuses that FAR outweigh anything else that can possibly be said about accuracy. 2. Defense competes with Absorb. Defense is ONLY useful when you get far into the diminishing return (DR) curve of Absorb. Absorb also as noted above relates to Shield in a 1:1 relationship. Improving our shielding ability (which we want) is far and above any defense rating. Defense is NOT the primary stat for Vanguards to stack. Having some Defense is absolutely warranted. It is completely and totally secondary to maintaining a high Absorb. Gear Summary 1. Dread Guard Supercommando's Belt - Defense Mod 2. Dread Guard Supercommando's Blaster Rifile - Defense Mod, Defense/Shield Enhancement 3. Dread Guard Supercommando's Body Armor - Absorb Mod, Absorb/Shield Enhancement 4. Dread Guard Supercommando's Boots - Absorb Mod, Absorb/Shield Enhancement 5. Dread Guard Supercommando's Bracers = Defense Mod. 6. Dread Guard Supercommando's Gauntlets - Defense Mod, Defense /Shield Enhancement 7. Dread Guard Supercommando's Helmet - Defense Mod, Defense /Shield Enhancement 8. Dread Guard Supercommando's Legplates - Defense Mod, Defense /Accuracy Enhancement (Completely useless) 9. Dread Guard Supercommando's Shield - Absorb Mod, Accuracy /Absorb Enhancement Thank you for completely misunderstanding a class you designed.
