  • how important is DEF for a THF?

    hey guys,

    Just wondering how important is DEF for a thief? it doesnt seem like it's all that important becasue we hardly get hit. maybe an occasional SA smack or 2 but if the tank is good it should never be more then 2 hits...


    What do you guys think? should i always sacrifice DEF for stats?

    (THF40) (DRK22) (SAM35) (WAR30) (NIN30) (RNG5) (PLD23)

    Other than when you're pulling, DEF as a THF means nothing. I can't remember the last time I saw a THF actually get attacked in a party once everyone was engaged.

      Yes, you need to wear as much Defensive stuff as you can.
      THFs have very low VIT and Defense so when they go pulling a monster it is very dangerous because as they run back to camp the monster will be doing insane damage and the THF could well end up dead before he arrives back to camp.

      Haha. Don't listen to a word I said.

      Yea, with THF you want to focus on Accuracy, DEX, AGI and Evasion, probably in that order too.
      Forget any other stat sacrifice, as long as you have a lot of accuracy/dexterity and evasion/agility you will be fine.

        From levels 15-29 you'll get attacked ftom doing sneak attack in skillchains, so defense and evasion equipment sets are something to consider swapping into.
        Warning level cat face.
