  Information issues aside, the spelling and the very frequent and random capitalization in the middle of sentences and words had me wincing. A lot.
  
  It's a lot. Not alot. This is an alot:

  At some points, I actually couldn't.
  
  And if you ever want to present information (or anything) in an intelligent manner, you don't spell like you're eight.

  There is another problem with 'tanking'; Mabinogi isn't a game where there is a defined class of tanker. The game system is focused on damage, not defense or protection. Of course you can have crazy high defense/protection, but in the end-game, it won't mean much if you are not doing your potential damage. Simply put, tanking with weak damage is not that useful, especially when you're just getting camped by large mobs that your windmill can't take out in one hit. The only way you would be tank very well and do decent damage would be to have r1 on every skill. There is no one that has reached that point that I know of, and those who are close choose to get mana shield damage reduction and place damage enchants instead. Only way this tanking would be useful is when you are very very very very very very very end game, although most people still choose damage.

  Wrong. Mana shield reforge is for gloves, u can still have the dmg enchants. You can stack mp and int with skills.

  This sentiment is idiotic. Just no.

  Seriously. No. Bad presentation makes you look like an imbecile, and the quality of your spelling and grammar is probably the biggest part of that. Even aside from that, doing something the wrong way should never be encouraged. Good god. Would you tell someone to keep up the good work if they figured that 2^2=7? No. It's wrong and you should not do it. Ever.

  1. it didn't look anything like that
  2. i never said it should be encouraged
  3. your b**ching does nothing but derail a thread, although this one was already pretty much off the tracks, which is annoying.

  Then don't. Not posting is as easy as not clicking "reply" and it's not like the rest of us are going to lose any sleep.

  Irrelevant, it still needs work. Enabling is as good as encouragement. Guess what else is derailing the thread? Your incorrect opinion.

  And everyone should stop derailing this thread before somebody has to do something about it.
  
  Constructive criticism is fine, just don't go overboard about it. Alright?

  hmm.. looks like we scared him off(the OP)
  also, at the OP, for transformation the 80% increesed protection only afects the bonus protection you get from collecting transformations. soo not too usefull sence the amount of protection gained from transformations is rather limited

  Is there verification on the MS efficiency set being multiplicative with the reduction?
