Achievement Points KoS & EoF

[aias]

<DIV>Hey all,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Just wondering what changes you have made, if any, to your achievement points setup with EoF and the reasoning behind it.  I am currently STA/WIS but may be dropping WIS soon with the mitigation changes.  INT?  AGI?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>:robothappy:</DIV>

<font color="#00cc99">I was also STA/WIS, but now I am 4 4 8 STR, 4 1 INT, 4 8 8 8 STA, and currently testing that out. I'm not entirely sold on it just yet, but DPS is up, and defense has dropped some. Whether or not I'll keep it I am unsure just yet. The WIS line lost a lot of effectiveness for me, and with EOF letting me boost my AOEs, combat arts became worth a lot more dps and threat, which is harder to come by these days.</font><div></div>

<DIV>The OP didn't reveal his level so remember that until your mit gets to 6500, the WIS mit bonuses are in fact helpful. Warrios sub-level 70 shouldn't be scrapping the WIS line wholesale. It all depends on whether ot not you can get your mitigation up to the point where the merginal effectiveness declines.  6500 mit is not going to be achievable in all mastercrafted, for example. One would need a good amount of legendary level 69+ armor pieces to make the WIS mit bonus worthless. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>So, as a 63 zerk with a no major legendary armor pieces I am sticking with 4-6-8-8 STA / 4-4-8-8 WIS (only 4-4-8/4-4-4 atm).</DIV>

<P>I've respecced twice since EoF release.  I was wis/sta for mit and dps, but I tried the final ability in sta for awhile.  The power you save is nice, but as a MT decided that I can get mana many ways (mana stone 1 &2, hearts, essence's, potions, power root, status item, etc).  The final ability in stamina giving a little health regen isn't great, and from a raiding perspective and taking lots of spike damage, doesn't help much.  So I respecced again for wisdom's mit (sticking with it even though I'm fabled..I still think every bit of mit helps), wisdom's final giving more melee skills (it's been tough hitting the EoF mobs...even though some of KoS mobs are same level, it seems EoF mobs are getting missed alot more often - Even with dirge + pally's AA, in defensive stance I missed 62% zone wide in Freethinkers...I'll be testing more again with the respec), and I've also picked up int. line for the parry.  Since the shield block is uncontested (meaning level of mob and herioc/epic doesn't matter it's still the same 19.9% with draconic deflector), I think having a bigger shield helps alot as a MT.  I was tanking everything prior with the buckler with much success, but, again, the EoF mobs seem to be playing a different game.  As raid MT, survivability is my main objective.  The little hate I've lost without the buckler has now been easily made up with having 2 people giving hate in our MT group, along with a uber level 70 legendary cloak I picked up off a contested x2 mob in the castle.  It procs twice a minute (either 1.8 or 2.2 I think) for a 750 hate to the group I'm fighting.  This thing is awesome!  It's like having an extra group taunt go off, twice per minute (and not having to mash more buttons to do it).  I was afraid the dps of the buckler would affect my soloing of some named mobs, but it hasn't.  </P>
