I've not really done extensive testing on this, but any reason you're recommending strength/dex gear over EE for armor?
In general i find i can get more kills even with a reasonably low level55 ~60ee scale/chain/heavy than using a ~30 strength level 45+ armor.

Not saying it's wrong, but worth asking the question

Do i misread?

He wrote armor, ee > str/dex

i am totally aware that's the arguement, but at what point does strength overtake EE?

I would expect over 10 mobs for an 80ee plate user to have taken significantly less damage than a 30 strength plate user. Although the 30 strength plate user will have killed them faster and have more time for regen.
I would expect 80ee to beat 30 strength in terms of time to reach level 71.

Where's the cut off point? Or do we simply suggest that both work?
I "might" look into this with some actual real numbers from playing the game with both sets of equip.


I can say for certain i would need a lot of regen time if i used 50 strength armor over my 135 ee plate.
