Me and my boyfriend are looking at gear for his barb and my Sin. So far we have TT 80 gear, but he is 90 now and is wondering if he should get Rank 8 or get TT90 gear instand.

Same with my Sin, she only lvl 80 so I'm not worry about gear yet, Just want to know for future gear :) thank you if you replay

    at level 90, you can't wear rank 8 yet. that set has a level-100 minimum; in fact, the rank itself does.
    [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] Heaven's Tear alts: KenLubin, Sou_Hon, JudyCaraco --- level 5x chars.

    TT gear is better than rank 8. Look at the stats.
    I seriously wonder: people who don't RPK, if you play the board game "Sorry!" and you roll the dice so that you land on an opponents piece and send it back to the beginning, do you sincerely apologize and ask everyone if you can have a do-over roll so you can give your victim another chance? It's a god damn game..

    Actually... R6 armors have greater resists than TT90s. Plus, aside from BM/Barb/Seeker, the bonuses on R6 are normally considered as better than what's on the TT90 as well.

    Let's just throw the stats here and you can decide for yourself. I would say they are close enough to not feel much difference.


    This is the what the barb could wear at level 90.

    Yeah. Rank armors for heavy classes have always been ****, hence me making a special note of that in my post. The sin, on the other hand, would get far more milage out of rank6 than out of TT90... not to mention that TT90 is more expensive (especially during a rep sale) anyways.
