When aggro is more important than dps, it's back to DW for me.

I am stuck at model V and I have completed the whole thing in raid.

The model # is based on years paid time, % of power you get out of it is based on how far you got inside the task (raid or group).

Enjoy

A couple of those are really nice.

[Aldier]

While not AC augs,
Stunning Sapphire of the Sepulcher
and
Sharpened Rib Fragment of the Fray
are nice looking too.

[Mendler]

Yeah that Rune 3 + dmg aug is freakin hot.

[Damoncord]

Sadly that's Blessed rune 3 which shields for 450 damage, but still thats about 900 agro so will still be nice.

I really wish they would put out more warrior useable rune weapons, even if they are the blessed rune line, simply because sometimes you do want AE agro that the runes provide. Thats in addition to the idea if you don't want the rune agro on it you can simply block the rune.

[damann]

are we still dealing with a 8hp to 1 ac or has that changed since iv'e been gone

[Mendler]

No we are more like 1 ac to 15-25 hps but in reality the people that know the game look for the important.....heroics (agi, dex, str and sta to a lesser extent).

[Gluluin]

it depends on the player and what stat they want to see higher and what not

The new order of best Heroics on augs for damage mitigation on warriors is? I heard the parsers figure it's
HDex as HAgi AC is phoney to some extent?.

hDex is what a lot of us have been going with it, A lot of my reasoning has to do with dodge check is last on the line of defensive checks besides shield block. Also, yes there is a soft cap (300) and is only gained upon intervals of 25.

Luckily I have been able to keep all 4 of my heroics somewhat around the same level.

[Palijim1]

Anyone got some parsing done with HDex vs. HAgi for damage mitigation? So max HAgi to do any good is 300? What's max HDex I wonder before it reaches this cap?

I wouldn't say after 300 is useless, as I have no data to support this. It is somewhat an agreed upon number to reach and no longer hyper focus on the stat.

And as far as displayed ac gains from heroic agility being phony, they are subject to the cap rules as far as I know and the same returns are attributed to it as ac from gear. I would love to be told otherwise, though.
