If you put 3 15 stam gems in the tuskguard then it has 5 more stam than the goggles. (This was assuming 12 stam gems and the 18 stam meta.

Tuskguard has more armor and just the tiniest bit more defense and dodge. Not so much that you'd notice. Goggles have hit rating while Tuskguard has block value. The armor is a pretty minor upgrade, too. All in all, I'd say the tuskguard is a very minor upgrade, but if you can't stand to lose the hit rating, you might stay with the goggles.

I have to say that when I initially wrote this, I really felt a lot better about the new meta than I do now. It turns out that it really doesn't offer too much BV after all even in a threat set. The T6 Helm naturally out paces the Tuskguard as a threat helm, but I have to agree that T5 really doesn't seem to keep up. Excellent point.

With Shield Mastery, it's adding 66 block value. You have to have a lot of shield block value outside of the helmet slot to make T5/Tankatronic goggles beat battleworn. It's much easier for T4 to do so, since it has 39(50) shield block value on the item prior to the Eternal Earthstorm Diamond.

The potential options created by these changes are much needed & should lead to some even more interesting developments. This should really open up some new doors & oh, how I love doors. Thanks for the heads-up on this change! …and to think I was just discussing tight defense rating recently.

High stamina, high defence and aggro - throw on a +FR or +SR enchant and you got one of the best resistance pieces in-game.
