Confuzzled over new armour - Guild Wars Forums

temp · May 20, 2006, 02:31 PM // 14:31

I've just got to the Armoury and i want to treat my warrior to 15k armour

At the moment i have this set up

15k glads chest
15k glads arms
15k glads legs
1.5k knights boots
a veriety of helms

This armour suit well for running, but i want to get into tanking.

There are 2 sets i like

Berserker [80 Al +20 vs physical health +30] <---- not buying boots
Dreadnought [90 Al +10 vs physical]

I will probably buy knights boots again [in 15k skin] as they have damage reduction built in [that is global and i'll place a sup absorp on them too to make it -5 global]

Im leaning more towards the Dreadnought armour due to the higher Al. I'm also not sure which helm would help with tanking. Can i have some help to make up my mind

thanks

I'd stick with the Glads for tanking as well. The extra energy is usefull for using stances and shouts.

i'd go for berserker, as warrior, you're pretty much ok armorwise, and the difference between 80AL and 90AL ain't superbig, specially since it only counts for elemental damage (you have 100 vs physical anyway). Health on the other hand also works vs degen and stuff ...

i'm saving up for 15k kurzick berserkers as extra armorset when i don't need much energy (normally i wear obsidian glads, always with knights boots of course).
