Ranger ac parsing (I'm serious)

[Jimjam]

Anyone have updates to this thread?

For years, I've been saying a narrow band of AC is actually useful for each mob - bcbrown's cleric results suggests this could be as little as a difference of 30 AC or less. To me that is crazy!

The other thing I was interested in, is how AC seems to be almost like a switch - you either mitigate well or mitigate badly. The posts in this thread don't seem to indicate there is much transition between those two states in the narrow band where AC is actually relevant.

Looks like these nerds got real quiet once I called them out on the fact that they supposedly have access to all these raid shields but have yet to actually test shield ac or even test ac on rangers, which is what the thread is about.

I can tell you from First Hand Experience (FHE) that using a Guardian Robe instead of my Tolunds Darkplate of the Glade has minimal effect and I think the ac cap is around 120 worn ac for rangers, do I take alot of damage from bows and melee in pvp? I dont know, most fights end in my favor because I have faction with the zone or my Legendary status of the Top #1 Number #1 PVPer in all of EverQuest History deters hostility, and rarely have to actualy fight anyone.

Am I going to test anything like the nerds in this thread? No, min maxing is for pve nerds, I am a PVP Legend the Top#1 Number #1 MVP PVPer in all of EverQuest History.

And thats all First Hand Experience (FHE)
