Regarding my sin's low def/resist

[Valerus]

Hey all you Assassin lovers, I have a problem.
I keep dying because of my low resists and low defense.
I am trying to complete the natalya's set and get some other unique gear.

I use Burst of Speed, so I'd rather not put more points into Fade.

What gear would suit my needs? (High[er] defense, nice resist %)

Thanks.

more information is needed,
what is your build?
budget?
items that you already have?
and you dont really need the high defence isnt needed, you should be using your skills to avoid gettin ghit in the first place.
think about your access to items like bartucs and jade as they are gold to a budget claw claw assassin

I have three bartucs and a jade lol

Ok I am a Phoenix Striker (oh I thought that I included that)

my budget is mid-to-high range
I have natalya's helm/armor, some crappy 90 def gloves and 60 def boots, etc

Put resist runes or jewels in the sockets.

get full nat set as soon as possible, full set bonus includes the res you are longing for, also use you jade to help a bit. This assuming you are a MAsin, for a trapper you should instead be looking for something else then nats, maybe get yourself a kiras for some extra res if needed.

Make sure you keep CoS active, it helps a ton, since your MA, use the freeze charge when you can.

Defense is pretty much useless on Assassins. There's no significant boost for it, so most of my toons roll with less than 2k.
