I keep trying to get my armor higher. Hopefully, it gets a buff soon and has some skills that benefit from it. Has anyone else tried getting armor or block high? What builds besides energy shields have been good for surviving? I still have a lot to improve in my build, but I am enjoying this game a lot! Like, subscribe, and join my Discord.

Block works fine, armour doesn't..

@elderwiz3165 one example of armor working is im able to take boss hits; i left a bookmark in the description. I'll make a separate video without block to test armor out solo. I got to 107k armor last night.

Interesting video. I want armor to be good myself. I think the problem is that for armor to be even somewhat decent, it requires a ton of investment, but to get 6-7k ES and easily survive the same hits requires very minor investment.
@SaltyWhaleGaming12 күн бұрын
That's a good point. If es is so easy to get maybe make life easier too as most of my deaths are elements based at this point.

I'm currently running a very tanky warbringer, 5k HP, 3.5k ES and 70% chance to block ALL hits. Feels good. The passive from jade flask is very nice. I have less armour than titan but can take higher Phys hits thanks to jade flask passive

I'd like to get my health up a bit. One of my goals is to be pure physical means I can't take energy shield unfortunately. I'll look into the passive tree of warbringer as that may end up being my second class! The all hits blocking looks fun

Could you do a walk around of the hideouts you get with the liberator pack?
@SaltyWhaleGaming7 күн бұрын
Sure i can do that this week. There are two hideouts and I'm not sure if they can be used as guild ones in the future

Have you tried fitting Blackbraid into your armor stacking build ?. I know you'll lose a lot of defense, but maybe it will still be enough to get like 30 or 20k?.
@SaltyWhaleGaming13 күн бұрын
My base armor is 50k and about 25k without the chest piece. I'll try this out for fun this week to see how it affects survivability. Thanks!
@SaltyWhaleGaming11 күн бұрын
I got a blackbraid chest piece and that would drop my base armor to 30-35k. I need to get some extra ele resist though as I loose a lot when i take off my chest piece. I plan on testing this out next week as it seems fun and most of my deaths are from lightning or ice attacks.

Why don’t you show all equipped gear?

I'm going to do a follow-up video on this with my skill nodes and current items. This was just to demonstrate the armor values and that it does add survivability.

omg that looks terrible. this was a normal map with a white T15 waystone. every other non -warrior class ascendancy in the game would clear 3 hard corrupted T15maps in the same time. showing us that 85k Armor works against white mobs in a non-mod map is just sad. make the waystone T16 and go in the same savannah map and chill next to the boss and show us how good armour works.

Remove all that block you have and see how much your armour "protects" you.

only a potato isolates a defensive mechanic instead of contextualizing based on layered interactions. Even more so when people speak of armor and not understand where it is useful. It does it's job perfectly well

Unfortunetly its hard to test out armor in isoluation as thier are usually many elemental mobs around. I played around with getting hit with white mobs yesterday without a shield and it definelty did more damage but would not be as sustainable to keep tanking them like I was with the shield. However my life regen got up I think to 500 with the armor providng 15% life back due to the physical reduction. I don't have the proper setup currently to test out 2 handed weapons on runs as my build charcter is built around 80% block. I will say this which I beleive I state in the video that what I'm doing is not recommended and I'm trying to push armor to the limit. It needs improvements, but if you get it high enough you can take fire damage and hits from bosses and live.

@@elderwiz3165 Yeah, I main it. Do you have 40k armor, max block, 81% max res, and 7k life and do 28mill in one HoTG? Cause I do. Armor does exactly what it is intended to do.
