Kalecgos 1 tank SR strat...questions

Splug knows what he's talking about

And again, note the 15 ilevel difference for Warriors vs our 5 ilevel difference. Of course it's a bigger upgrade for Warriors; they were starting with a worse weapon.

A more accurate comparison would be Hammer of Judgement vs Reign of Misery, and I think the Reign of Misery is the clear winner there.

Yeah, I was starting to feel like we were getting off the beaten path and was trying to get back on topic, but eventually gave up and just figured "Hell, long as we're off in the woods anyway, let's talk about bears."

Well that's probably true.

For people like me who don't really have a snowball's chance in hell at picking up Tempest though, it's kinda nice

There should be a paladin protection sun mote turn-in with Kalecgos sword or Twins healing mace.

+holy damage, high stamina and armor is all we are asking for

err... who in their right mind would call Lollypop a tanking weapon?
It's a threat weapon just like Dragonscale-Encrusted Longblade.

Tanking weapon would have a defensive stat which neither Lollypop nor ToC have.

So yes, i believe we are screwed since after Crystalforged Sword we don't have a real tanking in game. All we get is a threat weapon which is equivalent to warriors tanking with DPS swords which we all know isn't the case.

But then again, i've gave up on Blizzard and their sense of equality. As long as warriors are best, we are all allowed to be "equal".

I'm just happy Tempest of Chaos is a sword... now if only it will drop for me. Next up for it and no drops in a month. It's a pure paladin weapon now (for highly progressed guilds) with the sunwell staff/dagger/mace and illidan staff options for casters. Could just be me, though.

It is a bit sad that, even if the kalecgos sword is very equivalent to Brutalizer, they have a much better tank itemized weapon in sunwell. But really, the Kalecgos sword and Reign of Misery are both purely threat weapons.

Blizzard never wanted us to be equal, just close. Paladins can 'equal' warriors on dual wielders/fast hitters, are much worse on slow hitters, and are the -only- aoe tank.
