Armor Question for Melee Chars

Just how important is medable armor on melee chars? Most are leechers so they get back mana by hitting stuff....

If it's necessary, is it worth burning one imbue spot to add it?

Ahhh... see now your tossing in variables LOL.... I have an idea using NON-med armor that would make resists easily done... but again, it's NON-med armor.

Can't vote without all the relevant info... too many variables..


PvP or Pvm ??

Does the character rely on Mana.. (Yes I've seen PvP Dexxers that do not)

In General... I'd say go MED for PvP characters... for PvM non-Med is ok in some situations especially if your talking about Woodland Armor with HUGE mods etc..   it just depends...

What are you really gaining for resists with non-med armor nowadays? It's easy enough to build a 70's suit now with med armor and you don't lose the little bit of passive med you gain for doing nothing but wearing med armor and being human. 2 MR is 2 MR!

Like having 28 and 18 resists in two slots using only 1 imbue. Only thing is, that it would be NON med.

This realy depends on what u plan on doing with the template.  In pvp not haveing meadable armor can mean the differnce of life and death.  In pvm it doesn t mater u can get away with it.  When your chaining armor ignores and lighting strikes in pvp mana goes quickley so u want to regen it back as fast as possible

This doesn't depend on anything.  Medable armor is a requirement.  Anything less is a waste of your time and effort.

I don't even know you.  I'm just stating my opinion.  Non meddable armor blocks your ability to med if your passive ability to med if you're human.  If you're elf, you don't NEED it, but you can't actively med if you don't have it.  Humans get near 3 regen just from being human.  There's no reason to waste that by using non meddable armor.  There's a ton of other factors tho.  The main one being, what if you wanted to use that suit on another character? :)  Don't waste your time with non meddable.

with my melee chars i don't really have a problem with med as long as i am leeching it from my targets. most of my armor is non-med because i had a ton left over with really nice stats and resist so i just kept using it. if your going to be using the armor on multiple chars i would say it needs to be medable

I just voted YES. i only have one character with med. I have 2 sampire and an archer that don't use med, but the suits i have for them are maxed out MR, LMC, and have MI on them.
