was just wondering this question as i am soon going to hit 70. are the flawless shard going to show a lot of benefits?

thanks in advance for your answers

edit: i am not rich and i don't buy or have tokens, but i don't think the 200k per shard is going to be hard to come by.

also, i'm going to have 9-10 sockets together on my armor

    If you can afford to do it, I would. More HP is more HP, no matter how you slice it. The down-side of it is that the 70's pass pretty quickly with all the dailies. So your TT70 armor won't last all that long.

    I would suggest save your shards or money for sharding Proud Plate of Corsaire, the 77 legendary Leggings, Aqua Vicsiousness, Tauran Chieftain and so on. I mean... come on. hehe. He's right. 70s go kinda fast.

    thanks everyone for your responses.

    one more thing, how long will 70s take? cos i have spent quite a bit of time in the 60s, with all the grinding and all.

    If you do all your dailies and quests I'd say no more than 3-5days per level. I think I spent a total of 4 weeks in my 70's, before BH's even. By the time I got all my mats for TT70 gear, I was lvl 80.

    But it really depends upon your play style and how much time you put into it. I play 2-3hrs at nights (mostly WQ) and a bit more on the weekends.

    Honestly your 7x will be pretty short because of the new daily quest, increased xp return from BH and all the quests that you have. For the money that you are going to spend on HH70 it is just not cost efficient.

    If you compare some some halfway decent 2* armor to the HH70 gear you will see that the cost is just not worth it. Not only this but if you do go for HH80 (almost no one does because the cost is just impractical and the stats are just not worth it), you will lose all your shards, your upgrade, and your sockets.

    For me, i pretty much powered to 90. So it was easier for me to get the cheap 77/79 moulder armors, save the money, and wait till lvl90 to just make your HH90 amazing. Lets face it, the amount of time spent 9x compared to 7x-90 is nothing.

    Also, there is just not enough call for that much HP at that level. Most wb can tank anything at their level with g5 shards without a problem (unless you have an odd build). Even tanking a 3-3 at 87 i had no issues with my cruddy g5 shard +2 armor.(honestly i did it... i still hate you for that Midnight)

    Opinion: buy them when you find cheap ones, sock them away on an alt, and pull them out when you get some endgame gear and turn them all into g8s
