Lep Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I have this goal where I wanna be as ultimate tankage as possible, but when tanking lots of people and a mage comes along, I end up getting owned when I switch even just the legs to hides because of the meleers/rangers. I now plan on getting eagle eye kiteshield to use when a mage is there so that I have +30 more magic defense than I do with chaotic kiteshield. Basically, I'll have 61 magic defense while keeping good melee/range defense, only switching chaotic kiteshield to eagle eye. Is 61 a good magic defense to spend my time getting eagle eye kiteshield or what's the verdict? Rather not get spectral even though it's magic defense is higher because sacrificing not using hides, +4 range attack from eagle eye kiteshield will help a bit, plus eagle eye reduces magic damage by up to 20%. ;) Just need to know if they're splash often enough with 61 magic defense. You know, those mages in ahrims and sol and crap at fun pvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elf Spice Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 So you're hybriding melee/range in safe PVP, is that right? Have you tried Seercull spec? Totally screws up mages if it hits 60+, unless they were prudent enough to carry restores/extremes. I love taking mages down a notch in SW that are Soul splitting/blood barraging.

noble_aloof Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 you are obviously a few tiers above me when it comes to gear/stats- but i'll vouch for the seercull idea.

Lep Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 It's a shame topaz bolts barely lower mage because I do prefer keeping my shield on at all times. :\ Problem with seercull is that only takes 1 mage out, sometimes there are more than 1.

That's still one less mage on you, making it easier. ~ Proud Father ~ Proud (Currently Deployed) Army National Guardsmen ~ Proud Lakota ~ Retired Tip.It Crew ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Look up the "Magic is overpowered" thread, it is stated magic will hit well even on black hide etc, which is 100ish magic defence.
