Because 6 stats is terrible and even in this set, health is extremely important. I believe if he made this post today though, he may recommend the 15 defense enchant which didn’t exist then. It’s certainly what I use in mine.

Wow that was an incredibly ignorant post. Why dont you just tell me that I need at least 25 percent block to be uncrushable during shield block as well. Learn to do your research before coming on here and insulting tanks who are probably better tanks than you are.

Ya I’m afraid you’re definitely off on this one Asics. Not to beat a dead horse, but you should check out the following post too.

Sorry to say it Asics but your understanding of the mechanics of the attack table system is either flawed or non-existent and you really should check your facts before throwing a sweeping insult out to pretty much every tank in the game who actually knows what s/he is doing.

The link from Spaz goes over Uncrushability but you might want to familiarise yourself with this as well:

It’s not 102.4% mitigation, but 102.4% avoidance + block. And it doesn’t have to be supplied by just one stat. It’s all about attack tables.

Question: Why would you recommend the +150 health enchant to chest over +6 stats?

To my understanding, passive uncrushability is impossible. The point of shield block is to get your block to 100%…meaning this:

Every attack made against you can: Crit (taken off by 490 def.), Miss, Dodge, Parry, Block, or crush. When you achieve 490 def, crit is taken off the list. The only way to take crush off the list would be to max out ONE stat to 100% ie dodge parry or block to push crush off the list because for that specific tiem frame, you are only able to dodge parry or block. This is why shield block comes in handy…when you get 100% block, you cannot be crushed because you are GUARANTEED to block 2 incoming attacks. Simple having 102.4% mitigation means nothing. It really doesn’t and anyone who thinks “passive uncrushability” is possible to attain, you are out of your mind.

With the recent changes made to the Battleworn Tuskguard (I still don’t know how to link items, sorry!), does this outfit still fulfill the requirements to become passively-uncrushable?

Thanks so much!
