should a lvl 52 pure int (who's been dying too much from physical attacks) use armor or protector

There's not really a need for explanations.. just vote on what you feel is better!

lol i dont know what would be best cuz i am just a noob but armour looks pimp so i would wear it. but then again my char is a full str blader....
i voted for armour but i think actually garment would be good

Get armor and garment sets, wear garment for grinding on mobs that you can kill in 1/2 hits and armor for hard mobs and pvp.

used protector for 70 solid lvls. i swear by it.

lol this is pretty much tied

I'm leaning towards armor, but I have to consider what sui says :3

more votes plz

remember Suicide is a IntHybrid so he has a lot more hp to spare then you do. I would definitely take that into consideration and go for armor. You're pure int, a crit from a full str with a good enough weapon can send you back to town real quick. Go for armor and kick some ass.

true. I think I'm almost going with armor

more input would be great xD

ARMOR FTW!!!

i would use armor IMO

Use Garm.

Farking right.


If a Spear/Garment nuker can grind in Powers without dying, then you can too.

If you're dying too much from physical attacks then it's a clear choice to pick armor which has the most pdef.

Lvling on power earth ghost with garms isn't so bad, it went fine for me, now warriors and soldiers with garms is bad though

At your level the only real choice is ARMOR or DIE.
Seriously your pure int, don't screw around.

aight, i understand that armor will give me a much bettre chance of survival

but is it a lot bettre than using protector? The mp and speed bonus are enticing..

Simple.

get protectors with str3(+100%) increase. every single piece of clothing you get get that on it.

lol str stones are expensive as crud

and str 3 isnt the max.. lot's of people have been getting STR 5 which is pretty awesome

Armour would be the better choice by far.

I think you answered yourself right there.

ill tell u exactly what to get..since i am 51 ..i have a garment set and armor set the garment set with all int or str 3 i get hit for around 700-800 non crit at mujigis ..in armor they hit 200-300..vice versa for ishades/hashades..i get hit 200-300 in my garments and 600-800 in my armor ...protector im guessing would be middle of the road around 400-500 damage on any white mob...i think imma go protector for 8 degree and maybe even 7th although i did pimp out a nice 52 armor glove today +4 parry 100% int 3 str 2 i might just go armor cause of that 1 piece ><

There are only three bad things about wearing armor as a 52+ INT player.

1. Far more damage from elite sonars and big whites at Isy. It's nice that you take less damage from elite yetis and devil yetis, but at least you can see them coming; sonars and big whites are ranged.

2. Running into another INT player who stayed in garments while jobbing or PvPing. Better pray that you block and they don't.

3. Pimping out your armor set and then reaching 64, getting one-hit in the nachal room while garment nukers have the best grind in their lives. Garment nuker in nachals > farming archer in the bandit den.

EDIT: But I still recommend armor.

hydrate are you pure int? o0

im pure int...in garms atm...goin armour after late 50s...esp hearin about the caves are most phy dmg mobs...
(oh...& i think protector looks dammmmmm ugly XD)

Armor for int

Garment for str

Souped up protector FTW
At least, thats what I wear

lmao... 31 vs 30 x_x

well, I think i'm going armor for the following reasons:

int tabs cost less than str tabs
dunt wanna be stuck with 9th degree protector x_x
a lot more STR pvp'ers out there
Penons, yetis, and most cave monsters have physical attacks

armor seems like the way to go ^_^ even though the votes are about even =/

Well, after 62 votes it's still pretty damn even.

DAMN! If I had chosen protector (like I am now using) I would have made it 31 votes for each.

lol yea. I have a feeling that most of the people who voted Protector are either wearing it themselves or just think it looks cool ^_^
