45% isn't bad, but if you want really good armor I'd go for Feysteel. It's not really expensive and it will will be the best (other than ebon) untill about level 44. -Jeauno lvl 40 Paladin of Nektulos <div></div>

<DIV>If you want to compare yourself against other Paladins, right click on your name at the top of the screen and select "Inspect."  This works just like clicking another player to inspect and will show your defense rating total instead of the breakdown of mitigation and avoidance.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Your mitigation is on par for your level.  I'm around between 48-49% at level 49 with 2 imbued ebon pieces and remaining fulginate plus jboots and SBS.  However, I've seen a lot of variance between Paladins my level +/- 2 levels.  The tier 5 high end fabled stuff has amazing stats that I've yet to acquire--getting ready to work on prismatic with my guild now.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I've seen a few Paladins with well over 5K HP that haven't broken the 50 mark yet while my HP at 49 is only 4,440.  Likewise, I've seen mitigations in the low 40% to low 50% on some players with a wide varying range of avoidance from high 50 to pushing 70%.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>My current humble stats are listed @ <A href="http://eq2players.station.sony.com/en/pplayer.vm?characterId=112455102" target=_blank>http://eq2players.station.sony.com/en/pplayer.vm?characterId=112455102</A> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks,<BR>Kalen</DIV>

Whatever you do, don't buy fulginate over extending the use of your feysteel until 44-45. I had a full set of imbued feysteel and bought a set of imbued fulginate and started usinf the fulginate at 40 and sold my feysteel straight away...HUGE MISTAKE. I figured that the AC I would lose when I switched over would be made up over time but overall I have found that Fulginate is basically crap, even imbued. If you can wear feysteel to 44 and just keep hunting around for ebon, i stress DO THIS!! The stats aside on fulginate are similar so that would not change, but ebon is by far a better exchange from feysteel. If you have none by 42-44, buy some rubicite armor, not as good as ebon but adds 20AC per piece and has the same end stats as fulginate. You can't imbue it because it's currently dropped armor but I got a full set for 40g...10g less than fulginate, and it is good to 50, by whcih you may be lucky to get some really good drops, saw some guy with a ice something or rather breastplate that had 647AC (which is what I saw for my level....not what he had at level 50)
