    I think its time that DSO invented a new gem... a gem that gives block rate it might be like one of the gems that we get with gilded clovers or we get it the normal way with anders but there should be something like that.... Thank you;););)

    I don't really think block RATE gems are necessary any more, even without the black warlord regalia set bonus it's very possible to reach 80% block rate using the mobile fortress talent.

    But I would second the demand for block STRENGTH gems available as a jester prize, something also often asked for by @daywaker2 .

    The jester gems have already unbalanced the games enough. To the point where some big paying characters have so many armour gems they are virtually indestructible. Please let's not have any more of these Jester gems!

    I think block rate gems are a good idea, but only as quest rewards, or random drops.

    Yeah i agree so if there is some thing like that it should be available only once through event or like mini event rewards so players dont get too many of it

    true but we cant reach 80% in two handed weapon settings and i dont expect to reach that kinda BR in 2h mode but atleast it should let us reach 40% to 50% and a gem for block strength is a nice idea too

    Sorry, I don't think this is a good idea.
    I have seen DKs tanking all PW fatal bosses with 2-h already, no need to make them "totally" invulnerable... High damage AND high defense are too imbalanced, already now. Where's the logic in blocking without a shield, anyway... the Dragan pauldrons are already strange in that p.o.v.

    I think Gems should exist for all the already existing stats. So that ppl can actually have more room for build diversity.

    I remember when the set came out and I couldn't wrap my head around it. It just didn't make sense, but now I just accept it and love the extra couple % of effective HP that they give my 2H Build.

    Lol, RTFM. You are supposed to wrap the set around your head and shoulders, not vice versa. xD
    Otherwise I can understand why that might give you a headache...

    But I suppose you are thinking the mathematician way.
    How does a mathematician put 20 sheep in a fence when he is supposed to use as little wire as possible?
    - He wraps the wire around himself and says: "Define: I'm outside."

    (all just kidding, no need to teach me English here ;) )
