Want to switch to HA TT gear

http://pwcalc.com/?char=cd60f4e6b474f9b0 This will be my gear at 90. Though my cape helps out so much, its sooo expensive >_<. Which is why I have yet to refine/shard my gear, but trust me I will before I actually hit 90 ^_^ I've avoided levelling for weeks, just to farm money for making my TT90 HA. Mogwai Belt from some lv 87 quest is a really awesome belt, gives +15 to +18 stats. Most of the stuff that I'm using I already have, just need the belt lol.

I've found myself to be using foxform a lot more in recent levels too. When I was about 84, I maxed most of my fox skills for fun (except for amp and purge, whuch were already 10) but they're surprisingly helpful. Leech

I've been looking forward to 90 and HA since I was about 5x b:chuckle So I'm ecstatic that I'm so close! Have fun with HA

especially since your on a PK server, i would recommend demon, unless its too late already. the extra defense from sage fox over demon fox isnt all that amazing, and the anti stun summer sprint and speed boosting fox form are much more useful in open map pk than the sage versions, sage purge isnt all that usefull in the open map either, unless you are lucky enough to sneak into a group, and with all the APS around sage soul degen is only going to be really noticeable if you are soloing squad mode TT or helping on world bosses. imo sage is more TW focused where purge is almost guaranteed to hit several targets, and SS can purify heavens flame before the nukers hit.

i've been a sage HA for over a year, and its great in TW, being in a big TW faction its great, but if most of my pvp was on the map i would probably switch.

advice, get unicorn forest (2nd OHT map) open as soon as you can, and farm a forest wisdom helmet, its got +10 str and some hp and vit, is cheap to socket, and refines like g14. and its free, just takes a little bit of patience to farm.

put windshield on your genie, its a shield and an attack speed increase, keep it at level 1
dont use a pataka, get the tt90 innocent reverie or the wheel of denial of fate, unless you want to hold off on weapon upgrading until 95 and get the lunar wand, which is a lot cheaper than it used to be. wands do less physical damage, but lunar refines really well. the gold frost glaive is also a good option, pretty much the same as the tt90 glaive but refines better

constantly check the AH for better rings than the mold rings, your magic attack will already be pretty low, and lvl 88 rings or OHT rings will improve your attack a lot, ideally, get COA rings. because they have +crit and both physical and magic attack.

allocate stats as you level to replace the stats you need from each piece of gear you plan on upgrading, if you fing yourself in fox form most of the time, stat away the points you need from the tt80 wrists, once you no longer need those stats, get the tt90 HA gold wrists so you can hit faster in fox, once you no longer need those wrists you can also switch to sea captain sleeves for casting and running once you do. also consider that your magic defense in HA is a lot lower than robes, if you can replace your two physical ornaments with magic ornaments, your defenses will be a lot more well rounded.

plan ahead, and look at all your options, including lunar armor.

i changed vedovis's build a little bit, weapon rings, and a couple stat points
http://pwcalc.com/bbb694108c46e553
the rings go for about 12m a piece on HT, and the weapon about the same clean.

dont start getting squeemish about 12m for a piece of gear now, 90+ stuff starts getting expensive, but on the bright side, you shouldnt have to replace the rings, they're pretty optimal for HA venos. and the weapon should last a while too.

hope it helps

Wow, thanks Sasha for the advice The rings do look pretty amazing, with the combined +6% crit rate and magic/physical attack increase. Guess I should start farming harder b:chuckle

Edit: I am now the proud owner of an aquadash! Guess refining and sharding my HH90gear will have to wait a bit longer...

Concerning tanking: you can tank the damage from physical attack only bosses, but you've got no real way to hold aggro from DDs anywhere near your level. However, that doesn't mean you can't fill in when a better tank isn't available. I have tanked (in heavy fox) Jewelscalen, Dragon of the Depths and (just this past weekend) Krimson. (Nearly 9k pdef in foxform, cleric and BM buffs added 2k+ each for a buffed pdef of over 14k; debuffed, it dropped to 4k+. The faction 9x BM who buffed me wasn't available to tank because his alt needed the boss.)

Too add to these Ive Tank all of Fb 69 & 79 plus sliverfrost & Kong all in foxform all HA (with no AA ) with other dd's in the team it can be done but very hard to keep arggo b:surrender am the make shift fill in tank in my fact LOL

Ive been Ha since lvl 1 all the way to 100
