Exaro Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Anyone have any ideas/theorycraft of which is most beneficial in PvP? For Example, relic-wise I can either get 355 Defense for 20 secs or 220 Absorb Rating and Shield Rating for 20 secs and wondering what will be more beneficial for PvP. Cheers, Exaro.

Agroovesak Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Late game gearing-wise I imagine shield and absorbtion will be best since they can negate your defense by stacking more accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambunctious Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) I forget the exact numbers, but you needed really high SR/absorb to beat stacking defense...like around 50% shield chance with absorption in the 40% range. The numbers could be different, but a guy back in beta did the numbers. Most people won't stack accuracy over crit/power/surge/alacrity.

brazthemad Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 All I know is that you want your shield chance as high as possible since so many of your abilities proc off it -- rocket punch cd reset and heat venting to be specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhak Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 PT tanks use shielding/ABS as their damage mitigation far more than Defense (basically avoidance); that's mostly the realm of Juggs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MigSebes Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Shield rating always since we have two procs from shields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
