I would definately get Stamina. It'll work out cheaper on slots in the long run and will also let you get Health which is very useful as a Tank.

The consensus is that boxing is better but I have never got kick.

Iirc boxing doesnt make you put your weapon away if you have one, but kick will. Im not 100% sure though and I dont have fighting pool myself.

Ok, forget what I said..
After some testing and thanks to Dr.Rock sustainable damage calculator I've found out that Res Energies and Resist elements add very few to your survivability and that weave, combat jumping and invincibility stacked can give you a lot more survivability.
I tested it out on the test server with both my old build and my new one and i can say that the difference is huge..

Thusfar i have: Res Physical Dmg, Temp Invuln, Unyielding, Invincibility and Tough Hide from Invulnerability, plus Tough and Weave all 3 slotted for Defense/Dmg Res..

According to Dr. Rock my average sustainable dps is 494,15 while without Weave but with REl and REn it was 366,58..

So despite what I said before DROP REl and REn and 6 slot Weave(3 def buff and 3 end red cos of his damn high end cost)!

I kept RPD because it adds loads to the sustainable dmg havin the S/L dmg res capped, cos those 2 types of dmg are the most common in the game...

I really hope Dr.Rock calculations are correct(wich i trust they are)or else I'll have wasted a respec! xD

Correct, probably not, but hopefully close enough to give a good idea of what should work, but doesn't appear immediately obvious.

Thx for the information, I should be able to squeeze weave in there, resist energies will still be taking but at a later point I imagin.
