ESO Tank Jewelery

[ChaozK]

Some things to consider:
- we dont know for sure wether vit is going to be the important stat but it seems like an extremely likely scenario
- esos will be uncapped, so you can get either set really damn quickly once 3.2 comes around

Here is what i would do:

- Get a full eso slaying set, because that is what is more beneficial NOW
- Get an i190 gordian fending set, so you have something decent to equip when 3.2 with the potential vit changes comes around
- Once 3.2 comes around (most likely) get a full eso fending set in like a day

ESO is ok since it can be eventually upgraded to i210. However I'd mix and match the ESO accessories for the secondary stats on a as needed. I only have two fending since I was focusing on getting my Accuracy up to 700 (don't know the content cap) and didn't care for having any more skill speed. I can't find an accurate summary to compare Ark and ESO fending sets left. ( I think Ark has somewhat less parry and accuracy) The Ark fending set doesn't have a lot of parry like other tank sets but has somewhat higher crit and det than ESO, but the +str and +vit when upgraded makes up for that to some degree. So pick and choose between fending and maiming jewelry and upgrade those to i210. Current EX dungeons give ~185(??) gear and accessories. By 3.2 you can see what could be replaced or swapped out via content or crafting+melds. I don't think well be going that far past i210 until around 3.3 or until they're ready to add step 4 to anima.

....What do you guys think?

As my undersatnding, you will not have any problem even you have all crafting accessories, if you get any healer from this forum. ^^;

Seriously, I have both sets and very often +STR is much better when farming,
but there are some situation likes pugging roulettes,
switching to full +VIT before big pull maybe more comfortable...
just switching back to full +STR before boss fights^^;
