5 Atk lvl vs 10 def level

I'm stuck in rather serious choice.

I'm working with 55 defense levels and 38 attack levels (both of these are without blessings and buffs)

Now I need a new helmet and cape.

I can either get HH nirvana cape and helmet for 10 more defense levels OR I can get CV nirvana cape and helmet for 5 more attack levels. Above I already considered sharding them (JoSD) with 4 sockets (which I will do).

So what do you guys think?
Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze

    Since you can somewhat adjust attack and defense levels now with omalley blessing, I don't know why anyone would ever really pick 5 attack levels vs twice as many defense levels. I mean, if it were 5 attack levels vs 5 defense levels, maybe I could see the quandry. But 5 attack levels vs 10 defense levels? What would you rather have sitting in your bank right now? 5 tigers or 5 jades?

    If its the same cost, defense levels all the way. Then, if you want more attack levels, swap out some of those jades you were planning on using for tigers and pocket the extra coin.

    I was actually considering this.

    My main dilemma is that the 10 defense level with full JoSD will give me r9 defense level and the attack levels + JJB will put me over the defense level of r9s.

    Its HH vs CV, so HH is easier to farm. I guess I will get the 10 defense levels and shard DoT. Saving about 50mil or so.

    Saving 50m sounds nice.

    Not sure what prices are on your server, but on mine

    5 tigers x 9m each = 45m

    5 jade x 65m each = 325m


    So you are really saving 280m.

    No idea. I've seen several Jades go for 20-30mil while the vit stones are like 40 mil...

    Seems like people on DW are still mostly dumb... (not you two Miz and Hex, I love you <3)

    "Oh look I got two alternatives. The better one for a cheaper price and the worse for more coins. I take the worse because then people will admire me saying 'Wow, you got sooo much HP'. After all defense level does not show in the squad menu. And since I am on a PvE server it doesn't matter too much anyway." Not that current PvP servers are any better tho...
