Is it worth getting MP armor for warrior?

[Gorb]

I was playing around Leladia's Spellcraft Equipment Configurator, trying to make a SCset for warrior. What I found out was that I could cap almost everything with 99% armors. The set contained only Quest and DF jewelry and a rog belt. All armors were 99% as was the 1h weapon, only MP in the set was shield. I managed to get 75 str, 77 con, 76dex, 72qui, 178hits, axe/shield/parry 11, and capped resists in all but matter resist (missing 1 point).

So I would be missing only 3qui, 22hits and 1 matter.

So the question is: Is it worth the extra af (and capping the stuff I was missing) to buy MP armor?

personally, for the amount of extra money you'd have to pay for an MP suit i would say tbh it just isn't worth it.

This is a bit different set (rog belt replaced with df belt), but it is almost as good. Difference is that set has only a bit crappier resists. Crush, cold, and slash are also now missing 1 point, but this set should be available to anyone. But the point is this is quite fine set just with 99% armorpieces

If you miss that little its definitely not worth it to buy mp imo

 

[old.Lethul]

+1

ps. the belt aint rog

 

[old.anubis]

you are missing 22 hits
that's a lot imo
try to cap it, screw qui a bit

 

[old.Biohazard]

You don't need to take a full set really, just get gloves and boots, cheapest two parts afaik as MP's, should allow you to cap hitpts atleast. Else sacrifice a bit of qui or a resist for the hitpoints.

 

[xajorkith]

No you don't need to cap everything; the few stats that you have uncapped will make little difference in game. 22 hits will not save you when you're getting hit for 500-600 by a caster.
What keeps you alive are:
a) Your skill as a player
b) The skill of your group. A good healer is often decisive in battle.
c) Your numbers compared to the enemies.
d) The RA's of your group v the enemies.

As you see 1% extra resist will not help much!

The only chars I would say it is paramount to cap everything are those that solo.

 

[zmurf]

MP is for those ppl who prefere to know they can't get better equipmen't than they got except for drop's and for ppl who can afford it easily ... i got no crafter's at all, and i got MP on shaman, so i guess im the first 1, on a char like a warrior i would without a doubt get mp to cap EVERYTHING since it's a char with 4stats and 3 skills to cap, mp is the way to go ... money is easy to make, or atleast just take's time, there's no skill in it, so when u first got ur MP armor with EVERYTHING capped u can easily make more money + i don't care who u r, it gotta feal good knowing ur char is, well, perfect, item wise ...

well imo pull the quick down abit and then u should cap it quite easy + u have some small "probs" in your temp like 28 quick on 1 part, to put 28 of something on a part it´s not neceasary since it takes lots and lots of points...try balance it a little more and u´ll cap it easily....

<---i have 99 chain set capped without any overcharge

I didn't claim it was.

And to yes I know some of the armors aren't made aswell as they could. Mainly because that set is almost identical to the one my thane wears, but with few changes. So I had to make few fast adjustements to the set. Hence e.g the gem with 28 quickness. I don't have a warrior or I'm not even planning to make one, altho they are Fotm. In conclusion I don't see it necessary for warriors to use MPs in their set. Altho it gives you a lot more flexibility with items.
