Q:
AC Gear for a New Level 80?
Definitely consider soldier stats, it goes well with anything; power for damage and toughness/vitality for survivability.
I run with soldier armor, cleric or knight jewels and 30 BM.
ChillyChinaman just layed out for you the three sets of armor that are good if you want to be a tanky ranger.
Cleric’s is the most defensive having Healing + Power&Toughness, but only if you have multiple sources of healing (not just your #6).
I’d argue that Knight’s is better than Soldiers because I think Toughness is MUCH better than Vitality and Knight’s has the most Toughness you can get from any type of armor.
Soldier’s has more power than both Knight’s and Cleric’s, but it has none of the Precision that Knight’s has.
Try your best to not make mistakes, but, when you do make mistakes, learn from them.
Better yourself.
I have 2 sets of gear that i use :
1) Knights Armor (power, precision , toughness) with Superior Runes of the Ogre that i use for pvp
2) Soldiers Armor (power, toughness, vitality) with Superior Runes of the Noble that i use for dungeons
combines with berserker weapons, knight accessories with berserker jewels
