Are SOs actually worth it?

Energy Aura

Kinetic Shield / Power Shield

Base DEF vs S/L/N/C/F = 12.5%

Slotted with 3 even level TOs = 14.38%

Slotted with 6 even level TOs = 16.25%

Slotted with 3 even level DOs = 16.25%

Slotted with 6 even level DOs = 19.75%

Slotted with 3 even level SOs = 19.50%

Slotted with 6 even level SOs = 20.63%

So the difference between 3 TOs and 3 SOs is getting hit 5 times in 100 attacks - at a cost of around 100,000 influence.

Just a question here: how are you going to find a lvl 50 TO to buff your defence?


@Double

Double Flame 50 fire/devices
Double Shade 50 tri-form warshade
Double Light 50 dwarf-human peacebringer
Double Control 50 earth/rad

I was starting to wonder how I'd aford SO's in CoV......... now I realise I just need more slots from somewhere instead

They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.

with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"

But surely you would use the best cobination that will give you the maximum Deff so SO are still better(seing as once you reach high lvls influence insnt so much a problem).Or
by using 3-4 slotted SOs will give you 3-2 extra slots to
put some where else.I dont neccisarily agree with ED but we have to live with it now its here.

I personaly still slot my deffences with 6 slots as i have to many free slots to go round and even if they are only givin me %X i would rather it be there than say using the free slots i have on SJ or SS ect,Because my deff will only exept damres or endrec.

true u would use best combo, avin said that with the way infamy drops of ,in the 30s when in s g mode ,it may well take longer to get SO's .and on that test i wont be sweating on it.
