Malicious Armor Set pics/links/info?

[t0iletduck]

<div></div>Does anyone have any additional information about the Malicious armor set for SK's? I have only seen the one pic on the forums for the Gussets of the Malicious and only found one link on eq2llinks.com. More specifically has anyone found one of these pieces in game yet? (non beta) Im assuming they will be raid drops and will be hard to aquire (as it should be) and what mobs/zones drop them. So far I like what i see except for no INT hehe. <img src="http://erratee.lenzus.com/content/81819864/42809931.jpg">aITEM 293612194 -5969941:Gussets of the Malicious/a<div></div><p>Message Edited by t0iletduck on <span class=date_text>11-19-2006</span> <span class=time_text>01:49 PM</span>

I think they can drop from freethinkers off the nameds, saw on our server that some set armor for one class dropped in there.

im not much of a loot nut, so not sure how i got roped into being loot admin...but the EOF relic set has changed since that beta pic.current version can be found here:<a href="http://eq2.xanadu-community.com/eq2_loot.php?BrowseNPC=1&exp_id=7&pack_id=19&zone_id=77&target_id=234" target="_blank">http://eq2.xanadu-community.com/eq2_loot.php?BrowseNPC=1&exp_id=7&pack_id=19&zone_id=77&target_id=234</a><p>Message Edited by Xanoth on <span class=date_text>01-06-2007</span> <span class=time_text>12:40 PM</span>

how much sense does it make for the set to raise our defense so we get hit less, yet make the caress line do more hate per hit? we don't actually gain anything.<div></div>

[Notorious_G]

<DIV>Makes perfect sense. Since you will be hit less w/ this set, Nefarious Caress will need to increase in value to hold roughly the same amount of aggro.  In the end you should take less hits therby staying up longer, but retain the same amount of aggro.</DIV>

[Tarkin-Wretch]

<DIV>exactly.  people were expecting more hate gain sadly.  at least it ends up balancing out instead of having less aggro in the end.  by the way, the fury set boots dropped in obelisk of blight the other day for a guildmate.  they didnt say who dropped it but they were very nice.  i havent heard of any sk drops yet.  ill keep checking xan's site though.  the freethinkers set looks nice as well.</DIV>

You guys crack me up. You think the +15 to defense is going to mean you get hit like 1/3 as much? give me a break, whats that equal out to, like maybe 4% more avoidance? lol

[Tarkin-Wretch]

the legs dont have int either?  im starting to get disappointed in this set.

As far as i've seen, none of the dogmatic set has int on it. I'm hoping the fabled Malicious set will have int on some of the pieces. If you do have the Sabatons of the Malicious, please link them. </div>

<DIV>the PVP stat set is godly.</DIV>

Yet another drop, not sure what from yet. <img src="http://eq2.xanadu-community.com/images/loot/1315.jpg"> <div></div>

Been wondering this for a while now.... if we are disease based tanks, why arent our class specific armor giving us more disease resists? I would assume that we should be almost immune to all disease damage, but I guess that is just me. Resists right now are bonkers, so I would at least like to be pretty immune or well equipped to deal with disease damage. Just a thoguht.<div></div>

[clamdiper]

I'm going to say it this way, balance. You want balance in your resists and use gear to up it when required per mob, at least that is the approach I take. <blockquote><hr>Kryptonix wrote:Been wondering this for a while now.... if we are disease based tanks, why arent our class specific armor giving us more disease resists?
