Well I'm talking about 50+, since in 54 there are penons and in 60 there are yeti's changing to garms won't be really good for pure str(i think),and then there are caves..so when should a pure str change ?

Lv69 I think, due to the devil/demon eye mobs, also the Nachals. But then again you will meet the skeletons at Lv70+... Hard to say. I think Lv69, but maybe I'm wrong.

Is wearing armor till then ok ? or should it be protector ?

Armor? uhm... Protector is good in my opinion, I'm also pure str and I'm wearing it[prots], and I don't have so much troubles. But you will have harsh times on Pvp, since you will be vulnerable to nukes, imagine with armor. Then again, I don't care so much about pvp, and if I pvp I like to duel Strenghers =]

You're 64 ?
I'm going to farm at 54 so I'm mostly in armor now. (I'm 52)

I'm Lv 67 [I'm not changing my sign. till Lv 69 =)] Prots is good against karras and quite good against deivl/demon eyes. And like I mentioned, at 70s+ you will meet the skeletons [forgot their name ] at takla. Farm at Lv 54? If you are going to hunt penons I think protector will be ok, due to MP consumption reduce and the add. speed. Never tried armor, but sometimes when I grinding with prots, I have small lacks of MP, like 1 second or so, not too much, but I can't think how much wearing armor will affect in that point.

Gonna farm on warriors so I guess I need armor to tank more, but I still wonder when to change to garms finally..

Armor for pure str? A pure str dont need armor for phy.def. You already have enough, you are pure str. The difference between armor and garment is %20 for phy.def. This %20 might be a problem for pure int chars but not for pure str chars. Plus armor makes you weaker for mag.attacks and speed. You can choose prot but it is better to choose garment at 7D (at lvl57 when full 7D set finished).

at 6D you should switch to garm, before that you are slow regardless of what gear you have. and you still dont have lots of health, but after 6D, wearing garms vs. armor isnt that much diff, you should be dieing nemore, i havent died since lvl 35 on my pure str (tried going to maongs)

But with armor warriors do like 200 damage each hit and with garment they will do 300-400 means I will tank much less,Are the garment bonuses really worth it ?

Are you sure about these numbers? It seems a bit high to me. May be %50 increase of phy damage but not %100 increase i think. I dont know how much hp you have but at lvl 50+ for a pure str, 300-400 decrease in his/her hp shouldnt be a problem. But if you really think this is a big problem so it is better you to use protector till last set of 8D, which is lvl72-77.

I think it worths.

a pure str sohuld always be in garm, thats the dumbest question i ever heard

well from lvl 1 i was garm and i did fine im not lvl 60+ yewt but i do fight penon and they do verry little

and thats why the rogue kills you

And you didn't hear it, it's a forum dumbass.



And another question : now when I'm about to farm at physical mobs only,should I stay in armor\protector or switch to garms ?

hear what?

Read what he said again.

+1 Yea 6D is good time to switch.

I would suggest switching to either full protector or garmet whenever you can do it. Reason is for a pure str you don't need as much phy defense as you get in armor because a pure strs high phy balance will allow them to still have good phy defense with protector or garmet and usually for phy mobs their damage will still be relatively low if you're using protector or garmet due to your balance. Also at higher levels you will want the extra magic defense that protector and armor offers in pvp as well as vs magic mobs since you will run into quite a few after lvl 60. Also don't forget that protector offers 10% MP reduce on skills and 10% bonus move speed and garmets offer 20% MP reduce on skills and 20% bonus move speed which can help in grinding and pvp.
