How much Armour do you need for maps?
|
A decent amount of armour is awesome imo.
I have 16k (Grace+Det+IR) / 38k with Granite on my duelist. That feels way better than the 1.5k/12k I have on my ele cleaver. On the cleaver I have to spam granite, endu, enfee when I encounter packs of phys archers or hard hitters. With the duelist I can tank almost any physical threat without any issues.

I felt like I could notice the difference from my 9k vs an earlier ~5k on maps 66-72

yeah armor is pretty bad, in fact evasion + blocking with a shield is probably better as long as you have some really good form of leech/regen going on. Right now my ES regens at 400/sec so every hit I evade just buys my character more free time to regen.

And don't forget the enfeeble reduction is calculated before the hit, so if you have a good armor this is way more than a 33% dmg reduction

Armor is not useless.
Definitaly a different world playing around with 10/15k or 2/4k armor. Totally different. Maybe i'm lazy and i want to use flasks only in hard situation and i dont feel confortable to press flasks everytime i see archers or melee jumpers. |

" practically none you must max all resist though the most dangerous things in maps are: 1. Lightning thorn 2. Elemental reflect pack 3. Hard hitting mages with multi projectile+chain (skelletons, undying incinerators) |

" as a witch who doesn't have armor until i use a granite flask, you want armor for maps. "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."

You want armour for high level maps because some thing are just un-graniteable like Rhoa charges in Shipyards (i've seen multiple accounts where people have been hit for up to 6-7k) while the same hits do barely 2k to me. (7 endurance charges and 35k armour without granite and molten shell)
Armour becomes more and more effective the more endurance charges you have. Last edited by mathiasmmh#3277 on May 10, 2013, 3:14:15 PM
