Explorer's Tabard (Why?)

[Mister-Wonderful]

The argument was Hauby > scale mail without the accuracy. Literacy is a great thing.

Also, like I says earlier, Stuffed Cabbage give more than enough Accuracy to be fine on any fight with Ifrit's Harpoon; with Mogfork and/or Garuda it's even better (with the +25 ACC and all).

You listed all stats on both bodies posted when comparing the 2 without the accuracy. And hauby still wins because with your current gear setup in the prior posts you're sitting near capped piety but no where near cap on strength. So even with your setup Hauby would seem much more beneficial, bringing you closer to cap on STR while still boosing attack and giving accuracy.

I'm not quite sure why you would turn down extra accuracy if you are already eating accuracy food and still miss. If you aren't hitting at 100%, the more accuracy the better. You seem to be against it in favor of the dexterity...

My current setup:
Cobalt Hauby with 28 piety
Felt trousers with 20 str
Darklight Sollerets
Darklight Helm
Fingerless raptor gloves of slaying with 45 str
Veterans Field Belt
2x +1 Pie ring
HQ Pie bracelet

Putting me at 351 STR and 313 PIE without food or meds.
