Vote for Protector or Armor

Post by pingpongboss »

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! :D

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.
I'm waiting in my cold cell, when the bell begins to chime.
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time.
'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows pole,
The sands of time for me are running low.

Can it be that there's some sort of error.
Hard to stop the surmounting terror.
Is it really the end, not some crazy dream.

this kinda answers it self i think , you sad dieng by to much phy damage
and well the best phy protection you can get is armor .

the way i see it , for pure builds protector is the standard defence , gots some phy defence and mag defence , basicaly very good all round
and if you need more phy protection you upgrade to armor but this will cost you magic defence
if you need more mag defence you upgrade to garms , at the cost of phy protection

if you are a hybrid how ever this totaly changes and protector can be as good as armor or garments on a pure build

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.

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 :P

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

I think you answered yourself right there.

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.

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. :P
