Uhm.. I meant not that many helms had a difference in mitigation, and it wouldn't really be worth it to go after a +AGI helm when you could get this with +STA and +STR.
have no problem whatso ever giving up the 40 or so mitagation points of a heavy armor helmet with the proc and the DMG shield this provides i use a shield already. and share mitigation already for cleric or casters i group with so the resists and dmg shield will be sweet once i get this dream item
I have only seen 2people, since I started playing, wearing this, why is that? Also, not every hq item should be class specific to heavy armor wearers. I am a bruiser, and I can use very few of the hq items, or ones that would be useful to me.
Well also as a pally... with these stats and procs I'd wear it even if it is just very light armor, hehe. By time you can get this, you sohuld have good AC on all the rest of your armor anyway, and the stats on this make it worth sacrificing the AC a heavy helmet would provide.
being a pally myself, i would definately use this if i had it. nice STR and STA stats, a proc (1% might not seem like all that much, but it is as a tank when ur constantly getting hit, things seem to proc a lot when fighting a group of enemies anyways). Also, look at the friggin magic resistance! 726! that's the hardest stuff to tank. and then +50 hp to top it off, this is definately a thing for tanks to use which is why i don't understand why it's not class specific so it can be HA instead of VL...
My guess is that they made this VL Armor so that all classes are able to use it. Don't know what they didnt just make it class specific, but if the stats are all the same then it doesnt matter much. Cheers
