Radiant is so OP. I hope Dragonscale will not disappoint

Devs tried to make desirable event items. That's fine. But haven't you learned your lesson from Winter King weapons?

The stats on the Radiant set just blow away every piece of armor out there. The radiant helm bonus alone is better than a whole frozen set.

I'm expecting that Dragonscale would be better, but it just skews stats on a whole new level.

500 defense on the leg? That's 250 in dex equivalent, or 50 levels worth of stat points! As a tank we either have high hp or high defense but not both. Now we can. All bosses are now easy as pie. I think you guys overestimated the value of armor and resistances too much.

I'm sure a lot of people are happy but the game will just get "fixed" again later on because of overpowered stats.

Lol think they could have left off the defense and been JUST fine lol. 500 defense is mindboggling.

what you don't get is they add all the defence becaus the armour had like no armour. so no they can't have both

its still OP, with that much defence you will almost never get hit, plus it adds 120dmg on the chest and 80 dmg on legs... its wayyy OP

This point about dex is invalid, here's why:
- I got some radiant pants, along with my own 100 dex and 28/25 reflexes i have around 1277 defense, but I only dodge around 4/5 of the time.
- most importantly, dex has no effect on skills, which many high lvl mobs do most their dmg with, and since radiant has such low armor, mobs skills do way more dmg, making so I some times take more dmg with radiant vs frozen (since warriors have better armor, frozen will almost always be best choice for them)

But ya I see what your saying that skill hits will not be blocked by the armor...But your defensive skills help with that. Also thier is no resistance...

Complicated :ugeek:
