AC or HP for tanks - equivalency
Just wondering everyone's input on the equivalency of HP and AC for tanks (i.e 1 ac = 10hp)?
Also, what would be the softcap for AC where it becomes less useful? | ||

It's difficult to say a stright exchange rate. The softcap for AC depends on level, and AC mitigates damage while HP just helps you take more of it. It depends on your healer etc..

You really don't have too much of a choice in AC/HP until Augs come into play, but generally 1AC = 5 HP.
I'd side with the HP side of that equation though. CHeal is not capping on anyone on this server and such a large percent of Kunark damage comes from non-melee (or due to a large damage bonus rather than a high Damage Interval). I'm not sure how it is on this server, but during this era on live (and through Velious), AC was hardcapped (Source = Khavok, developer). The high HP stuff generally came with a shit load of AC anyways. | ||

From a warrior guide on the wiki...
"An items combat value (CV) is equal to its AC, plus one for every 1pt of Str, 15 HP, 6 Dex, 6 Agi, and 5 Sta. I also add one to its CV for every 1% haste increase. CV = AC + Str + (total of hp, dex, agi, sta, and save bonuses) + % haste." http://wiki.project1999.org/Guide_fo...g_My_Greave.3F | ||

Just a thought, but i seem to remember warriors going full HP during velious/luclin/pop for max HP during CH chains?

they both matter to an extent, but it also depends on who's healing you. if your only healer is a druid, then you wanna get as much AC as possible. if your healer is a cleric with Complete Heal, then obviously a larger HP reservoir is a good thing.

Imo complete heal makes this question pretty cut and dry
