Right now you can at least roll a full i190 with i205 weapon, which is already grossly overgeared for any content except AS3&4, which you can't freely farm so it doesn't matter

Just a heads' up, guys, but Nektulos-Tuor doesn't even have a tank at 60.

He does, he just hides that alt on his account because he doesn't want people to see it for whatever reason.

Probably because it's using Prototype accessories, which renders half of his argument moot from the get-go.

Is it 'his' like "My main account has cleared A4S!!" or actually his?

Because that seems hilarious either way.

Not to mention anyone who mains tank ought to have a mix of str and fending already. You don't HAVE to start 3.2 with full 210 to be competitive. But if you do, you can still get/upgrade Gordian and esoteric jewelry and start with 210 fending in 3.2.

I've been sitting on a stack of A1S tokens and Machi farthings as I deliberated what to upgrade next, and now I'm glad. I already have two 210 fending from Alex drops. Tues the 23rd I can plink down my vouchers and be full 210 fending but up until then I'll rock my full slaying, thanks.

Just in case no one else thinks of this:

Do not spend your Esoterics on Vitality accesoires yet, if you're not capped already.
You should aim for (almost) capped Esoterics for 22.02. (one day before release), since prices will most likely drop. Maybe you can get buy crafting mats for the new crafted accesoires/gear.
Soooo.. don't spend you Esoterics on gear you don't need now, but spend it when/if you need it.

Also, since they changed something knowing a majority of players favored one way, but did not offer plans for compensation or explained how they have plans for the future, it kind of makes the players look like $$$ bags. Trade-ins are the fairest way to combat this.

I don't mind that. If they gave me 5 weeks of free subscription as well. Remember, this game has lockouts based on TIME. This isn't a free to play game.

Trade-Ins would be much more fair, because every other class NOT affected by this, can spend their time gearing alts now whilst tanks have to regear. THAT IS NOT FAIR.

I guarentee you many people play more then one class you know.

So essentially, we have to pay more then other players because of a mistake of development. That isn't fair.

1) The timely lookouts on the gear you did not get will go away with 3.2, so you don't need 5 weeks to get you VIT acc, you only need maybe a few days.... First day I can just do 10x A1S for tokens and esoteric and I'd be mostly done (if I'd still need them).

2) Even if SE didn't change the damage calculation for tanks, they could legitimately make VIT acc for tanks mandatory due to raid mechanics (even the old ones like A1-4s) and/or buff parry-stat.
