And just why exactly are Pally's supposed to share the "heavy" tanking with guardians, you are making no sense? Pally's as well as SK's buff there own wisdom instead of parry, therefor making them a better tank against magical attacks. Yes some mobs do mele magical types of damage instead of physical (for example, faroth mal, and some mobs in living tombs) I feel that sony has it nicely balanced tho of course being a crusader you're usually stuck putting gift of armament on a guardian when doin a raid mob or something of the sort ( since most raid mobs do high physical damage ). I enjoy the fact that my kite shield has the same shield factor as tower shields, but what is shield factor besides a display number? currently it seems like its nothing, i dunno id have to parse several equivilent yet very long battles to find out. I have Zalak's Kite shield of Dominion (720 factor) I also have Crimson Rock Targe (928 factor) Yet both give 16% block ( this either could be a display issue, or a actual bug with avoidance ) Either way it is definatly a bug! and i hope its fixed soon!
I'm doing some parses right now, and am going to figure out if its just a display issue or not, and yea i dont trust the original guys parses
