I'm looking forward to watching Raider 101 grow.<BR/><BR/>You're right about the skills vs gear concentration: it doesn't matter how good your gear is, if you don't know what you're doing, you're still a bad Tank.<BR/><BR/>Maybe it's more a Warrior thing, but we seem to be very gear dependent. Plus, it's hard not to focus on stats when you hear a lot of, "No, you can't be MT, your armor is too low," "...your avoidance is too low," or "...your health is too low," etc.<BR/><BR/>However, I like how Raider 101 looks at a character as a whole, and not the drill-down stat look you see everywhere else.<BR/><BR/>By the way, "Rohan" seems very familiar. Where did you get that name from?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-31530244132523473532009-01-29T10:09:00.000-08:002009-01-29T10:09:00.000-08:00George, while your post is good and correct, I'm t...George, while your post is good and correct, I'm trying to avoid listing gear minimums (unless it's like the defense minimum).<BR/><BR/>What I've noticed is that people at the lower end pay far too much emphasis on gear, and not enough emphasis on using the proper skills. So I'm trying to put as little information down about gear as I can get away with.Rohanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09090769681887119989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-68112100786838632352009-01-29T10:04:00.000-08:002009-01-29T10:04:00.000-08:00Bravo on your idea.
