    AF2 or +1?

    As a WARRIOR, which one should I aim first? People are saying different stuff... One person say +1 isn't really beneficial for Tanks..
    Simple AF2 or +1, don't bitch about "Search it up" "Get DL then go to Coil" "Lul nub dunt no whch 2 git" I want a straightforward answer saying AF2 or +1 (A reason would be delighted)

    Come on community, prove me wrong that you aren't a bunch of bashers.

    P.S. I'm saving Philo for DL accessories. Also I need 1 week for +1

    Just look at the stats.... I'm guessing you are choosing between the AF2 Warrior body and the +1 Bravura, correct?
    If so its like this....
    Here are the stats for the NQ Bravura + HDL body (Keeping in mind the body also covers the head slot).
    44 DMG
    262 Def
    60 str
    66 vit
    76 parry
    30 crit
    Skill Speed 23

    Here are the stats for a +1 Bravura with the HDL body
    42 DMG
    64 str
    262 Def
    71 vit
    80 parry
    30 crit
    Skill Speed 26

    And lastly the NQ Bravura with the Af2 body and the Hoplite head you'll have to wear, since there is no DL head piece.
    44 DMG
    264 Def
    66 Str
    74 Vit
    68 Parry
    23 Skill SPeed
    39 Acc

    At 262 and 264, the defense is negligible. But it should be noted that the AF2 wins by 2.
    The +1 Relic will net you 2 more damage than the AF2 body, but 2 less STR. Damage > STR so thats a win for the Relic +1
    The +1 Relic nets you 3 less Vitality than the AF2 body but 12 more Parry . I'd chalk that up to the +1 Relic as well.
    The +1 Relic will net you 3 more skill speed than the AF2 body. 26 > 23
    Lastly, the +1 Relic will net you 30 crit, while the Af2 Body gets you 39 ACC. If WAR was a whiff class like it historically has been, then the ACC would be a bigger deal, but as it stands, no one really missed (unless you personally feel you miss a lot, but I don't see that happening) so statistically, the 30 crit is better. Another win for the +1 relic.

    I know, I know... You don't have the HDL body, so you're thinking the body would be a much bigger upgrade.... but since tomestones of Philosophy aren't capped... I'd strongly recommend the Bravura +1 and HDL body. I just think you'd get the strongest return on your investment.
    And to anyone saying Tanks shouldn't get the weapon... I think we just showed them!!!!

    Honestly, wait until some of your DPS get their +1 Relics. If you can still hold enmity after they do, get the AF2 chest. If not, get the Relic +1.
