Hi, im interested in soloing the fow with my warrior doing spider runs. in your opinion what is the best armor to do it in? plate for armor or knights for absorbtion?

eSe · Apr 23, 2006, 07:06 AM // 07:06

only 1 piece of absorb is need'd the rest is up too you put absorb on helmet or boots since those are the places where u get hit the least # of times

Eh ...
Where you put your runes has NO effect in the damage you recieve ! Absorption runes are Global !

i said nothin about superior absorbs we talkin about armor pieces that have -3 damage

Heres what I have anyways...

Dulist Helm of Superior Swordsmenship + 1 Swordsmenship +3 Swordsmenship

Gladiator's Hauberk of Major Absorbtion - 2 dmg

Gladiator's Gauntlets of Minor Strength + 1 Strength

Gladiator's Leggings of Major Vigor +41 HP

Knight's Boots of Minor Tactics + 1 Tactics

Superior Absorbtion is not needed, unless if you have money to blow, it's the skills you should be working on.

nice set poison ivy but superior absorb is worth what it can do so is superior vigor

-2-2 stance/enchant shield wit 16 AL is nice also

Spiders do physical damage right...?
you'll want high physical defense....

Knights: 90+absorb
plate: 95
glads: 100

solution: gladiators with ascalon boots = best

case closed =D

Gladiator's with Ascalon Helmet = best.

Those are global as well...

Personally, I use 15k Glads and a 15k Ascalon helm.

eSe · Apr 23, 2006, 07:56 PM // 19:56

the armor is global so u only need 1 piece of it and so is absorb only need 1 the rest can be glads ur set is good 15k glad and 1 15k ascalon piece

Glads Chest
Glads Legs
Glads Gloves
Knight's Boots
+1 weapon skill helm

I just don't see why you'd need +1 Tactics to do a spider run. Especialy if you're using the Physical Resistance build.

eSe · Apr 23, 2006, 08:12 PM // 20:12

tactics for stances

Witchblade · Apr 23, 2006, 09:58 PM // 21:58

+1 tactics = extra healing

Katari · Apr 23, 2006, 11:41 PM // 23:41

It's genneraly a good idea to have the +1 from your helm to be in your highest atribute. Are you guys doing spider runs with a higher tactics than weapon mastery?

I agree with Murder, full Gladiator's with an Ascalon helmet is most efficient. Best against physical attacks, which is what you take constantly in Fissure. Plus the extra energy is a huge help (yes, even if you use 100 Blades with a zealous mod). As for attributes, skills, etc - follow Racthoh's guide and you can't go wrong.

McHearty · Apr 24, 2006, 12:49 AM // 00:49

erm collectors ringmail is 100 vs phys too just no energy bonus

hehehe.

Glads + ascalon helm may be efficient for certain things but it is the least efficient for everything else.

You'd have to have an extra pair of boots if you ever want to go out and do some decent damage...
