Return of Reckoning

Folks

A SM focused on debuff + ED, would be better talisman of strength, armor or thougnes? Force really make as much difference as defensive talisman?

Ty.

Tank builds that require to actually hit things to gain acess to their utillity where designed to be better of with alot of STR. IB and BO in particular.

Strength talis to make the most of ED. Use renown for your defenses (futile strikes, parry, etc).

Agree with above posters. Stack STR talis and use STR pot, maybe mix and match SC sets for max STR bonus, use RR for -crit chance and parry, and you can play around with tactics or base gear if you want more survivability.

Definetly don't mix sets, full dom for the taunt proc and crit. Taunt proc is amazing. Of course there is a weapon with the proc aswell, but you need the speedproc weapon.

Wouldn't it be better to adapt to the future removal of taunt proc? Well, as long as we have it, why not use it.

Can't really equip the upcoming set anyways, so might aswell use taunt+speedproc for now ^^

Full dom takes a fair grind commitment. You can relatively easily get the non-purchasable merc bits together by downgrading emblems and then buying the dom boots/gloves for gold, and maybe the belt since it's the cheapest emblem piece. My assumption was the OP is new to SM and maybe on a fresh 40/sub40, but of course working towards a 10% +30% damage proc is a good idea.

Nice feedback folks. Ty

I used mix sets and so far it serves me well, what is your wounds? I found using say for example full dom, with all STR talis slotted on each pieces, gives me like below 8k of HP which I think is too low for a tank/dps assist class. With mix sets like 3 +3 or 4+2 I could have my wounds around 8.5k to 9.5k respectively. I guess unless you always run with WP with his wounds buff, then having full Dom set wouldnt be a problem.
