Cheat death and resilienceFollow

Hey guys I wonder if any of you more experienced Arena rogues have sort have determined the new value of resilience since the cheat death nerf and it's resilience dependance.

Prior to the patch I would gear offensively on pieces where I had an option since I was rarely if ever focused. But now that CD is resil dependant I was wondering if I should change up my pvp gear.

Three questions specifically.

Guardian's Pendant of Triumph vsShattered Sun Pendant of Might

Merciless Gladiator's Leather Spaulders vsShoulderpads of the Silvermoon Retainer

Veteran's Band of Triumph vs Angelista's Revenge

Ok so currently I chose the SS neck, the Merc shoulders, and the Angelista's revenge. I feel the AP increases and armor ignore on these pieces make them worth more than their counterparts which would increase my resilience. I think there choices weren't too hard for me, but my post is 1) to verify my thinking is sound and 2)get a sort of feel for comparing items closer to one another. For example right now Angelist'a over Vet ring I feel is no brainer but if i were deciding on Angelin'a vs Vindicators ring now that the offence isnt as gimped is 22 resil worth more or less than the Armor ignore?


I usually log out in PVP gear thanks. Vulk

I'd say try it yourself. Do some practice matches in offensive gear, and some in resilience orientated gear. Either you'll cheat death something and die anyway, or cheat death will be usefull... You should go with the gear that allows the latter.

I prefer the guardian's pendant because its a static ap/crit etc. boost, the pendant of might is more burst.

Merciless shoulders over the Shoulderpads definately.

And Angelista's over the Veteran's ring.

I'll reply in your quote:



I'm currently in full S4 offset, 3/5 S4 (or 4 if you count the throw weapon), 1/5 S3, 1/5 S2 (the shoulders obviously) and I'll replace my pants (S3) for the S4 next week. Bottom line: unless you have high-end pve stuff (T6), I mostly wouldn't consider pve stuff (except for Angelista which I'm also wearing with S4 ring).

Now three bonus comments for you:

1) Get the S4 gloves! That is the cheapest item and also the most useful with interrupt on DT! I'm shocked to see that you got the S4 throw weapon (not that much of an upgrade) instead!

2) Also get Dory's Embrace, it's only 60 badges and it rocks.

3) Also dump Garona when you get a chance to equip the S4 ring instead.
