I guess my question is what are you hoping to do with it. Are you looking to solo for a substantial amount of time (reaver works wonders on guards) or to fill a DPS niche in PUGs? Or is this for group tank or raid offtank work? If the latter a nice 1hs/1hb and shield is your best bet as the shield ac isn’t affected by soft cap and will provide you a lot of damage mitigation. Shield is also nice for pulling to help with taking some extra hits.

Tbh a shadow knight can do a damn fine job tanking with auto attack off…
Yes, Shadow Knights rock [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

As for what I am looking to do, I solo; used to get in PUGs but those seem to be hard to find lately on Blue

At 51, you want a Reaver.

What he REALLY wants is this.

He should look into an MQ, or at least look into starting the preliminary work towards his epic.

Yea, 7-8k for a reaver or 150k for a Inny’s Curse.

Or ask guildies to help him do it, or ask poopsockers that have all the necessary items if they're willing to help a fellow SK.

It's so difficult to tell if you are trolling people or just oblivious. It's valued over 15x more than the Reaver. You can't compare the two.

Everyone should work towards their epic. If you play a lot, raid a lot, and are lucky it still might take a very long time. You don't just kill hill giants for a week and drop by the tunnel...

You make it sound as if "sometimes there just isn't an MQ for sale." I guess for Bard and Magician that could be true, but not for the others AFAIK. And besides that, nobody is making six figures a week at Rathe Mountains.

But regardless, if you want to MQ an epic, you can always cut down the cost by collecting whatever components you can on your own, saving plat or enlisting guildie help for the ones you can't do on your own or the bottleneck spawns, like Trakanon.

If he wants to buy the Reaver, fine, he can afford it, and it's a good weapon. He "should" be working towards his Epic as well. I suggested more budget-friendly options for him in case he wants to save his plat for something else, and also because I prefer weapons that have stats on them like Str/Sta/HP. I don't just concern myself with the ratio and nothing else.
