Is this considered a "complete" P99 Warrior toon?

Considering the difference in Agi / Dex, get rid of that grotesque mask, and replace it with Lizardskin Tribal Mask. Rock more AC / MR.

For Ranged, Kirran Toy is also good for AC.

And real AC buffs have an Ivandyr's Hoop also.

Guess it all goes back to the life long arguement HP or AC...so pick your poison.

yea sure you could gain 4 ac from ivandyr's hoop but lose 29hp, as for the mask if you want pure ac go for Fine plate steel mask ac 7 or even swapped the neck for fine plate collar ac 8,depends if you really wanna go to town on the ac but for a few ac id rather have the extra stats and hp and go for a happy medium of hp/ac

I agree except that the lizard mask also adds +5 MR and it's nice to not have to swap every single piece of gear for different situations.

In other words, I think the lizardskin tribal mask fits the bill nicely as a +AC and +resist item, something that is hard to come by in classic (besides planar). I agree about the hoop though, the AC on that is not worth the massive HP loss. If you are going to do that use diamondine instead.

A little strategy I used to use back in the day was the 1AC = 5HP score.

so treat a 25HP item as if it's as good as a 5Ac item. Then if there are additional useful stats, use those to tip the scale in favor of one over the other.

Remember 300+ WORN AC (soft cap)
100+ DEX (yak procs are a must unless you are a hybrid tank!)
Enough strength to not be encumbered (you are not there to DPS)

Your resist gear set should be good enough to get all your resist over 100 so that with the right buffs, potions and bard songs you can get any of them above 200 when you need to.

As long as you reach that plateau first then you can min/max about your AC/HP spread.
