  5. It was the first skin you got by watching streamers. "Golden Rage armor" during the last genuinely closed beta in July.

    My armor is still pretty low CP as well. I think my watermark is pushing as high as 550 for some pieces, but a lot of my pieces are down in the 500 range because I rarely see parts in the weight I want stats for. (Plate with just Con for tanking, or Focus for if I do Paladin, medium with just Strength or just Focus.) And something like my medium all focus Fortifying Sacred Ground perk is going to be extremely tough to replace. It's something in the high 490s I think.

    I made the mistake in my mid 50s of starting to see big jumps in gear score and just equipping whatever and seriously dropped my stats. I had to buy a lot to replace it with actually statted gear to get that back up to where it should be. (Thing like my con for tanking dropped down to like 200, when 100 of that was from stats.)

    PS – Please tell me your secret for having an empty inventory. :O Ignoring my weight from extra weapons and gear for doing 3 roles, I'm pushing about 700 weight in gear pretty much all the time. My primary storage of 2075 is 99% full all the time, secondary and third storage of like 500 are full. Like 300 of that is alchemy weight, like 150 mining weight, 150 food component weight. I honestly really don't get why they want you to craft the things, but make SO MANY tiny components you have no idea what to do with them other than keep them and then it fills up your storages. I mean… I guess they mean for you to only focus on one or two, and syphon the rest to other guild crafters so you don't keep extra, but still. :p

  6. Best way to maintain stamina IMO is to learn their attack patterns, then do your attack pattern after theirs. So, with that big guy, he'll do 2-3 big attacks, after, you immediately drop shield, do your 3 light attack combo, go back to blocking.

    Also, much tougher on the big guys, but if you have Mobility, and have a shield with Mobility bonus, you can effectively out maneuver 75%-90% of the attacks. Like with the Thorpe type (who, yes, are very tough to perma block through due to 4-5 attack combos), if you back/side step while blocking with the boosted mobility you can manage it so all of those attacks miss. Sadly I haven't seen a shield with the mobility boost since that one I got. 🙁 Armoring isn't high enough to try to bother to make one. (Plus I have Rook which is pretty good.)

    I don't think most realize just how tough tanking is here in NW. As someone who's done MMOs for 20+ years, it's INCREDIBLY difficult to both hold position and hold threat on things here due to how much they knock you around and how you need to weave in and out of attacks to keep stamina.

  8. I'll always offer this word of caution with Void for an off-tank weapon… you have to be EXTREMELY careful if you are tanking a boss that requires you do a lot of blocking. I have to play on laptop on public connections (usually between 10-15 mbps) and there are MANY times when I'll go to swap a weapon and it doesn't actually register. If I'm trying to permablock and I'm in my normal G Axe off, it's not a super big deal, it's like 'wait why am I blocking with G Axe' and I swap. But if you have Void, not only are you getting effectively zero damage reduction, but you are also draining your own life while holding block. In some leveling up I was doing while soloing in Shattered Mountain, at those forts when things went bad and it became 2 or 3 on 1, I actually killed myself a couple of times by not swapping off Void when I thought I did.

    Soooo… people are free to play how they want, this might just be an 'on laptop on public connections' issue due to the small delay added in, but I expect I'll ONLY be using Void off when tanking if no one else is running it and it seems necessary to get that DPS/Heal support.
