[Guide] Paladin Tanking Compendium (Last update 11/13/13)

[Reeno]

I would get heros bracelets and then valor legs. Can also get crafted neck too.

[Tiernin]

No question. Just be jealous of my immense cuteness and fanciness.
I did end up skipping DL body all together. Gonna get Head >> Hands >> Ring next.

[Ratatapa]

Levelling paladin on an alt and was wondering

For warrior I was planning to stop it at 8 ( foresight and bloodbath)

Should I get mercy stoke or it's meh)

[Andradi]

Much closer to meh than essential. It is nice when you get the effect off, but since it's impossible to guarantee what you're looking at most of the time is just a small off-GCD attack.

[Don Katsu]

So I melded Rose Gold Ear Screws...now it looks like this:

STR+9
DEX+9
VIT+10
Accuracy+12
Determination+7
Parry+12

Keep or sell and continue using DL in hopes that RNG will give me Allagan Earring?

[Avarice]

Not sure if it was mentioned yet, but Awareness seems to have been fixed. Popped it in Ifrit Extreme earlier today for the hell of it, and was getting crit heals from both our WHM and SCH.

Has anyone done testing with the Onion Shield yet? I could spend a token on it FOR SCIENCE, but I also kinda want to get that bow for my Bard; it looks so sexy.

[Seravi Edalborez]

Yeah, it's on a long list of things near the bottom of the patch notes that I think a lot of people overlooked.

[Sylvrdragon]

Oh nice. I guess I can put Awareness back into my CD rotation.

[Dazd]

So if anyone wants an easy i90 tank ring do Garuda, apparently it's all she drops.

[Reeno]

She drops nothing but striking for my group

[Avarice]

She drops nothing but striking for my group

Fucking this.

My group's Garudas are always Striking, Titans are always Aiming, and Ifrits are always Healing.

[Dazd]

I'll swap you groups . Got 5 fending rings in a row today.

Onion Shield, Holy Shield Zenith, and Allagan Round Shield are all near identical in terms of mitigation over time but I personally believe Onion Shield is considerably better for reliability.

Foresight is really the only one you need to get from MRD, and that's only because you get it at level 2.

Mercy Stroke isn't good, but it isn't bad either. It's kind of just there.

[Avarice]

Turn 1 graciously offered us our first pair of Heavy Flanchard tonight, so now I just need the Helm and Shield and I'll be full BiS with Paladin pending future updates.

I guess I'll need to grab it sometime this week with my tokens and test it out some. At first glance, I just don't see the loss in block strength and slight parry drop being worth the increased block rate, but I guess I'll see.
