haha, that's the exact gear I'm wearing and 100% to the T what I have on the OP, the only difference is the enchants - I'll just drop recovery enchants and go 1 more ArPen and the rest power.
Same here but those **** power enchants expensive and gf gear sells for so cheap
OP updated with new BiS setups for Stalwart and Timeless - I noted it in the OP, but keep in mind that it doesn't matter which level of item you use, as long as you're using the same base item. For example:
My guide recommends Ancient Slavemaster's Ring of Control. If you haven't had those drop, or cannot afford them, that is perfectly ok - you just use a different rank of control rings. This could be Minor Grands from the seal vendor, Grand's from T2 delves or the Ancients from CN.
The same goes for enchants/runes - the guide assumes rank 7's, however, you can use 5's or 8's (or even 9's) - that's perfectly fine. The only thing that will change is you may have to add an extra or subtract a rune here or there in order to reach/not go over the 22% ArPen target. So just adjust as necessary.
The Stalwart optimization now matches the Timeless optimization 100% as well - I left both lists up though in case things change in the future.
guys the trample the fallen skill is really help us??

I'm not up on the latest info on how all of the different stats work. Recovery is no longer something we should really try and stack? As in it really doesn't help much or what?

I'm curious about this as well. Why is recovery suddenly dropped? Is there any info about it?
Wow, great guide! I just started playing and I'm relieved I read it before I got too far. I play tanks in most games, but I had no idea that threat worked so different in Neverwinter.
I'm playing a half-orc, and it seems like a lot of people prefer to go str/dex with them (I rolled 16/16/16). Do you have an recommendations for what you would do different if playing a half-orc, or would you just do it all the same? I know race doesn't make a huge difference, but I'm still curious.
Thanks again

so for this hybrid spec is the lizardfolk better than the braced troll warhammer?
who gonna help me with trample the fallen skill???
i can decide if that skill is usefull !!
The Trample the Fallen passive is very good, yes. Battle Trample as a feat isn't very good however, and I would suggest using Crushing Pin in its place (or anything else you want).

I'm trying to wrap my head about how you are meant to get 22% ArP. Anyone can explain?
It's explained simply by the gear you wear and the enchants you use. Just look at my set optimizations for the specifics, or if you don't care to, then it's basically like this:
Blessing Neck - x2 (you and pet)
Control Rings - x3 (2x you, 1x pet)
Belts - Power + ArPen on you (Smiting Berseker) and Crit + ArPen on cat
Recovery will come naturally from the rest of your gear. After you get those base items, then you simply use Dark Enchants until you hit your 22% ArPen target, and then swap over to Radiant Enchants.
I am curious, previously you advocated 3000 Recovery followed by 1500 Armor Penetration.
Why the change now?
yes please let me know as well i want to understand calculation (still lv 21 and following this awesome guide) i have being part of skirmishees and dungeons and well seems that i'm a very good tank almost alway recieving the msot damage and well i'm about the 2 or 3 in DPS one time the first but it hink i'm still missing in equip since i'm basically using what the system recommend as better lol will take more note in ArPen in any case and will drop it only in the case that defense has a googgreat value
Everything works out in the end . If it hasn't worked out yet, it isn't the end...
Basically people were wrong about how recovery worked. So we thought 22% ArP wasn't achievable because you needed recovery. Now you stack ArP to 22% then power. I'll show a screenie of my pretty much perfect gear soon when i finish buying an item.

Elaborate on this. I've seen you on the forums, and streams, telling people this, but no clarification.

16*1.06
To get how much ArP you need do: 22/(1+Dex*.01) = ArP needed from gear
Oh I see, looks like I need more ArPen then. Thank You.

Sadly not. Depending on the exchange rate the Ioun Stone may be cheaper, but it may not be quite as suitable.
The Trample the Fallen passive is very good, yes. Battle Trample as a feat isn't very good however, and I would suggest using Crushing Pin in its place (or anything else you want).
It's including Dex. For instance, with 15 Dex, it'll be roughly 2150 ArPen rating.
That sounds perfectly fine to me.

p.s. sorry for bad English
Your guide has been very usefull for me, lots of thanks. I have one question, Why you don't stack recovery any more? Thx!

Wrong, How about recovery.? for the life of me I can't find a thread that seems to say it does something other than what it says.
Elaborate on this. I've seen you on the forums, and streams, telling people this, but no clarification.
Streams? Basically recovery is not cooldown reduction, it's recharge speed. This means that 100% recharge speed = 50% cdr, 50 = 33, etc.
