kridlekid Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 (edited) I have finally decided to dust off my pt. I am having a friend craft me a full set of 66 purple mods armorings and enhancements. I am not sure what I should be aiming for stat wise though. I know shield and absorb should be higher than defense but how much higher should it be? If someone could list the names of the pieces I should have crafted, it would help a lot. Also what should I try to get for my relics, implants, and eearpice? Edited December 26, 2013 by kridlekid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatbagTitan Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=616779 http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=686677 Both of these are some good references for stat budgets (sum up the amount of each mitigation stat you're getting off of your gear currently, it shows you at that rough level how best to min/max allocate between the 3 tests). Basically what you need to be consider is your shield rating is never going to be traded out against defense/absorb. Those 2 are pitted against one another (except in the augment slots, wheere you could aug for any of the 3, or endurance). As PT you're going to typically want to augment a bit into shield rating to take advantage of your built in absorbtion boosts coming from the talent tree. Interms of early on you'll need moredefense from your mods and enhancements but at higher itemizations you'll move more of that over into absorb, as your need for def will be covered by the higher budgets of mitigation in individual pieces. Hope that's helpful for getting you started on your journey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MASOLIZ Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Like OP dusting off my pt tank which is about my third alt so it will be awhile before I get dread forge relics. So for alt runs for my guild I'm guessing Obroan FR, idk on the second one though. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
