Thread: Gearing for i80 sync PvP (Patch 2.5 Edition)

I agree that SS on WHM might be usefull in slaughter, but in secure its not, no matter how high it is. You cant cast a single spell without equ, surecast or what else you have there, because a healer normally gets focused that hard, that he just cant bring out a single spell without help.

BiS* Equipment Sets

Paladin (Crit/Det):

• Weapon: Lionliege Blade
• Shield: Lionsmane Shield
• Head: Noct Circlet
• Body: Demon Armor of Fending,(?) (Lionsmane Cuirass has 1 less Crit)
• Hands: Direwolf Gauntlets of Fending
• Waist: Lionsmane Belt
• Legs: Dreadwyrm Sarouels of Fending/Lionsmane Breeches
• Feet: Demon Sabatons of Fending(?)/Lionliege Sabatons

Str Crit/Det Accessory Set: Good for Tanks, Monks and Dragoons

• Ears: Tremor Earrings of Slaying
• Neck: Werewolf Choker of Slaying/Dreadwyrm Choker of Slaying
• Wrists: True Ice Bracelet of Slaying (High Allagan Bracelets of Slaying is a good alternative)
• Ring 1: Judgement Ring of Slaying
• Ring 2: Direwolf Ring of Slaying

As a Tank who's primary gearing method will be PVP. Many of these drops that you've listed in my set are flatly unavailable, as they require a level of PvE dedication reserved for my PvE character.

I've permitted myself as far as the participation in Crystal Tower due to the mass participation and ease of access, as well as currency items as I am getting them through PvP. However, for participating in fights such as Primals, I feel as if my PvP Character would be poorly suited for that due to lack of PvE orientated gear and the divided functions of the character.

As such, do you have any recommended alternatives to the sections in which crossing out the unavailable areas leaves me without an appropriate substitute to fill?

Judgement Ring of Casting syncs to +9 Det/+14 Crit So the difference between the two is 1 Det vs 4 Crit.

For ears? Earrings of Divine Wisdom from Tam-tara (HM).
For wrists and ring? i80+ Strength pieces with either Crit or Det.

Also the Demon Armor of Fending and Demon Sabatons of Fending are from the World of Darkness (final part of CT).
