Background: I'm back in the game now after having been out since the end of HoT/very beginning of VoA. I'm trying to get my box crew back up to standard, and so far my guys aren't holding up too poorly to group mobs in early TBM (Into the Temple), but I have concern about later, current content given my gear (mix of CoTF, TDS, and a few rares from those expansions).

Question: What AC / HP items are out there that stack with everything and provide bonus AC above and beyond simple AC on gear, AC augs, and heroics?

Examples: Totem clicky from Anniversary Task #16

Reason I ask is because I saw the Golden Helmet of Rallos Zek thing from one of the other anniversary events. It says its a 75 AC trophy. If I recall correctly, if you place those trophies in your house or whatever you can turn them on like tribute to get the AC bonus. Correct? I have a personal guild setup for my boxes/toons so I have access to a guild bank and the guild portal. I'm guessing I can get a personal guild area or something to place trophies and use, as well, right? Also, someone in another thread talked about an "AC merc" which I had never heard of.

What other items that stack with virtually everything and provide AC that I need to get?

Thanks ahead of time!
 
Copied from this forum:

Violet Conch of the Tempest - 78 ac/13 ds (doesn't stack with rangers/druids, Tunare's belt upgrade)
http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=118756

Holgresh Elder Beads - for pulling of course, comes from the casino

Totem of the Wurines - DA clicky
Elder Longshadow #1: Freeing an Elder (Have to shroud to lvl 65 to request, can drop the shroud right after), just wipe the zone for it to drop...it's random off trash so if it dosn't drop request it again and you should get it on the next instance.

Cursed Rage Channeler - DA clicky
Drops in pretty much any of the Bloodmoon group tasks, I've found Walking into spider webs to be the esiest, drops off trash get it cool if not rinse repeat.

Feral Guardian Channeler - DA clicky (all 3 on 8 hour cd's but separate timers)
http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=3286 Trick to this one is do the quest up to where you you have to kill the the spider at the end BUT dont kill him fade him off if that doesn't work zone out and come back in a kill mass shillskrin (the mobs in this zone do respawn BTW)

Guardian Circle 3 - Increases companions to dodge with an an aura around you.
Items with GC3 on them: Band of Ice, Bloody Orc Signet, Eye of the beast, Jagged ring of the Bloodeye, Runed Mask of the creep, Schorched chitin faceguard, Symbol of Energico.

Circle of Power 4 - Increases companions crits from Melee/spell
PoW hunter reward or rare drop from Rolfron Zek, Lord of Despair in PoW mines.

Terror's JuJu - Revers DS (Lasts 15 mins, 3min cd)
Drops from A Terror Carver in Crystal Caverns (pretty rare unless you get lucky) or in the mission http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=6048

Rune of Tallon - Summons Pet that does damage
Drops from The Bard in PoW, (or random rare from trash but your better off killing the named for it)

Relic Fragment Figurine - increase ac by 200, increase all resists by 200 (30min cd)
Player mod Pottery: 1 large block of clay, 3x Relic Fragments, 1 water flask (in a Kiln, triv = 402.

this is about all I could remember off hand hope it helps, will post more if I remember.
 
So the relevant items are:

- Violet Conch of the Tempest - 78 ac/13 ds (doesn't stack with rangers/druids, Tunare's belt upgrade)
http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/i...ml?item=118756

- Relic Fragment Figurine - increase ac by 200, increase all resists by 200 (30min cd)
Player mod Pottery: 1 large block of clay, 3x Relic Fragments, 1 water flask (in a Kiln, triv = 402)

Thanks for posting. I'll have to check those out. I have a ranger, so I usually have ranger buffs, and I'm hesitant to rely on something I have to TS, but its a great start.
 
I've been camping Ruuabri's fist for a long time, but it's a rare drop. Extremely.

Gunthak Swabby's Eyepatch is another great AC boost.

As you said, it's a great time to get Bloodmetal Inlaid Gnollish Totem.

Yeah don't focus on the Conch... I got it and it didn't stack with something else... I think my Form of Defense? I'll check. When I login to the game today I'll link some good AC Augs.

A quick and easy 40 AC aug and a charm is this quest: Shard Experiences. Take about 50 Small Glowing Fear Shard and give 49 of them to the Magus in Shard's Landing. That will build the faction you need to get the quest. The rest of it you need is 1 more small glowing fear shard and a Chunk of Alaran Flesh. The quest is fast and takes more time zoning than actually doing the task.
 
You can get extra AC/Health/Mana from doing the progression achievements.

Trophy's are a great way to get extra AC

Power Source

Tribute

Plane of War - Judicator for a 10% dodge Aug is a must

If you are FTP all of the TBM AC augs are non prestige

A bard in your group adds a ton of AC

If you are brand new fastest way to farm AC augs is doing DH HA's. You can buy a full set of decent AC augs to get you going.

This was one of the single most useful pieces of information I've seen in a while. Thanks that. I had looked through these a bit but generally didn't realize just how many there were, and this is awesome. I'm back after a long break and this isn't something I knew offhand.

Thanks!
 
One thing worth mentioning too is Rune of Tallon (the PoWar drop) the swarm pets it summons actually benefit from AAs if you're a class that has pet AAs. Ultimately I'd say Rune of Tallon would be quite useless on a class without it, however, on classes with pet AAs this thing can pump out some srs dps!
 
Shamelessly jacked the following list of augs from the DBG tank forums. I'm sticking it here so I know where to go back to find it later on :)

Condensed Desiccated Bile
Fragment of Tenacity
Rationalist's Sigil
Lizardman Warding Charm
Hero's Calling
Sage's Light
Shimmering Black Pearl
Chipped Stone of Starfall
Darklight Emblem
Dancing Rune
Herald's Glyph
Sliver of Fear
Nobel's Blood
Glowing Eternal Shard
Limestone Oddity
Siren's Stone
Stone of the Landing
Shard of Frozen Time
Pakjol's Appetite for Destruction
Sickly Distened Horseshoe
 
You can some ac and dodge from illusions like the Polymorph Wand: simple Gnomework and the Tumbleweed Twig. These are both for SC.

Okay I bought tumbleweed and it wont stack with the warriors commanding voice :( There a wasted few bucks.

I run around with a SK, so worrying about stacking issues with commanding voice is less of a concern for me. What is the AC bump from that thing? Can I use the illusion key ring feature to get the AC boost from the illusion without necessarily using the graphic?
 
Ill get the exact AC number for you tonight it scales with level though. You can use the illusion key ring to cast it and just block the illusion part of the buff to not change forms and just get the AC as it comes on a different buff. And just for clarity on my last post; the tumble weed is a familiar.
