Don't use Spirit of Yggdrasil - Sleuth of Bears is better in every aspect. The bears will run after the whole party and this is what tanks tend to do when they're dying.

Getting a Hyrkanian set and a hammer (~2000 HR) is minimum. Why Hyrkanian set? Because it gives the same health and armor as T3 (so you can start doing T3 with a better set than you can get there ). Alternatively you can take Yag-Kosha's set - better HR and invaluable protection.

In the end you'll want as much HR as possible, but it will come to you in T3,5 and T4. Don't stress so much on HR though, the tanks also have to do some work

Did some tests yesterday and I ended at 1250 dps on a strawman with a build linked above - T1 blunt.

That build http://aoc.yg.com/feat-planner?class...435-11,2438-15

But I've putted 2 points of CotR in WotW.

Awesome score for a T1 blunt.

I must test CotR more - everytime I am doing parses it barely triggers

All small differences anyway... Probably I would not use both those T3 extra items at same time in T4 anyway, because they have no Hit Rating at all..

i agree, in fact with my ranger i use strangler's hand & tiger's boots, but if somebody is stingy and gets boots of the void early, he/she can wait to buy tiger's boots....

What many people dont know is it will proc more the more points you have in it. I discovered this recently. 7ppm at 5points. Actually I prefer 5/5 reaper now over 2/2 wotw. Dropping bewilder too. 1 point stambuff still though.

Hitrating is important. Alot of glance on strawman you dont have enough.

1250 is damn strong for a t1 blunt parse Sygma. You include slam in rotation? Female or male toon? Though 3 minute parses are not very interesting. Go guildcity and smack for atleast 6 minutes. Damn crit and ruin proc variety make parsing no fun.

Never tested it with less than 4 points and it was the same no matter if 4 or 5. When I run dungeons with it it seems to work fine, just not when doing strawman

Thanks for the tip - guess I have to put more faith into it.

1 point is 4 ppm I think. I feel a definate difference. Only problem with strawman is it's only 1 target. If multiple targets chances to get the procs alot higher.

I mean 45% extra weapon damage is alot. Like another bloodwarrior+bloodchampion!
