Ive recently been promoted to my guild's MT position and was wondering how big the difference in Guard and Zerker Avoid reports are.
Any and all reports are welcome.

Thorren

You mean the difference between a Berserker and a Guardian? Guardians have a group/raid Defense buff. They also have a parry bonus on the avoidance check you can put on someone esle, as opposed to the Agility bonus Berserkers get. It's really not that big of a difference at all between the two classes.

For any MT, focus on uncontested Block %.

Shield of the Green Dragon, Soulfire Gladius, Empowered Vel'Arek, Barbute of the Wrathbringer, Cuirass of Hatred (if the new Hate Avatar still drops the same BP), Trakanon's Shield, ect..

Not a whole lot to be honest, our oh shit spells just let us handle spikes better. Thorren is right, focus on block stuff.

Lol that wasnt really what i was asking I know how to tank and i know what i need to focus on to become better however I do not think at this point in time with my gear setup i could get away from a buckler spec. Wrathbringers doesnt drop and i need to go ahead and hammer out Soulfire however one question i do have for you guys is do you think its worth sacrificing Reet knight helm for the mastercrafted +1 shield block helm.

I am looking for avoidance repots like so.



P.S this was leviathon.

Mechasean

Hmm, well I would stay buckler specced tbh. I don't use Soulfire at all anymore. What is your gear so we get a better idea.

LootDB.com | EverQuest II Item Database - Nak'azar Brigade Bracers

I've been trying to find these on the broker for ages, when you say they don't exist, are they just super rare? Or were they removed from the game?

Nobody farms them, that is why they seem rare.

Ive been to chardok a ton I wish they would just put it on a named would rather farm a mob with a PH so i can usually get a wood box then a SUPER rare drop from trash.

There is another earring in Karnor's that dropped the other day for a guildie:

\aITEM -1793045712 621109044:Endless Wail Earring\/a

Its so rare its not even on lootdb.com - It was a disco as well on Unrest, and it dropped off of trash, friggin 4 months after the expansion hits.

Why is it that all the good parry gear drops of trash or is very rare? And this is a zone I actually farm...
