trangs gloves
8 element gcs with fhr rec to hit break point is it nesscary to hit fhr breakpoint if blocking is maxed?

should i max block for a pvp or go with life?
plz help me

You need more fcr as I think the best bp for druids is 99 and 163.
I'd always use ss against anyone you can use blocking for a spirit mainly for casters (to help reach that 163 bp too).

Use a wizzy instead of hoto to reach the bp
Unless you're using lifers or top notch gear, max block is not recommended as your life will suffer too much.


And yes, fhr is still essential with max block.

if you're going with ss then a druid fcr circlet (shaeled) would be a nice way to get to that 99 fcr bp and then you wont need the fcr ring. alternatively you could get another ring. i just wouldn't recommend shako on a windy druid.

if you're going with spirit then the 163 bp is optimal. get another fcr ring, druid circlet, and a 13+fcr druid ammy and you're set.

i think both are viable. i prefer the max block because vita builds cant deal with bvcs, smiters, and bowazons as well as a max block build could. its really your choice.

No sanctuary shield??? it does have resistnace and it does have fhr!! but does resistance overcome dr from ss? i would still max blocking......and the shako instead of circlet wouldnt that be better considering life plus dr???

[callmejay]

any decent windy has to have a maxblock/max dr setup..period

i would advise trying to get a nice pelt over a shako.

but trust me if you dont have a max block/dr set up..bvc's/chargers and the like will become a nightmare

and i agree..wizspike is a better option imho for a windy due to your skills sucking alot of mana

i use wizzy on all my casters just because i love the mass mana/res/fcr

make hitting the bp eazier..as stated earlier
