New Sovereign sets being spoilered! Tanks first!

Well first things first check Andy's post regarding the new look Sovereign bonuses.

My Chosen is currently stumbling through the late 50's Renown wise so I've never had a chance to play about with the current Sovereign sets but I'm actually liking the look of this.

They'll be unveiling all of the different sets in time but firstly they have Chosen (Geddit?!) to reveal tanks first, from the forum, VĂ³ila:

>(Primary) Defensive Set

Tou - 232

Wou - 134

Ini - 116

WS - 106

Spi - 294

Cor - 289

Ele - 289

6% reduced chance to be crit

4% block

60 hp/4s

4 AP/s

2% reduced armor penetration

3 piece - 85 Tou

4 piece - 85 Wou

5 piece - 200 HP/4s

6 piece - On Being Hit: 10% chance to reduce attacker's armor penetration against you and chance to critically hit you by 6% for 10s.

7 piece - On Defense: 25% chance to increase parry/block/disrupt/dodge by 5% for 10s.

8 piece - 2m cooldown - Up to 9 targets within a 20 foot radius have their movement speed reduced by 60% for 5s.


(Secondary) Offensive Set

Str - 232

WS - 134

Wou - 116

Tou - 106

Spi - 294

Cor - 289

Ele - 289

6% melee crit chance

40 melee power

4% parry strikethrough

3 AP/s

2% parry

3 piece - 85 Str

4 piece - 85 WS

5 piece - 5% DPS

6 piece - On Hit: 10% chance to increase melee power by 130 for 10s.

7 piece - On Hit: 10% chance to increase parry/block strikethrough by 10% for 10s.

8 piece - 2m cooldown - Up to 9 allies within a 20 foot radius have their movement speed increased by 60% for 5s.



Not made my mind up about the 8 piece bonuses yet, 2 minute cooldown's not too horrific, 5 second duration and up to 9 targets...could see it making a big difference if used right, anyone else have any thoughts on that?

Of course their a lot of people complaining already about the set bonuses being standardised across all of the tanks as opposed to personalised for each mirror set but I'm looking forward to the customisation it looks like it offers. I've never been a min-maxer myself and I'm quite looking for to trying out a 4/4 combo when I get up there.... probably about 2013 by which point they may have got round to unveiling the first expansion! (I'm just impatient!)

On a semi-related note really liking the amount of information Bioware Mythic are pumping out into the forums. Hope they keep it up going forward!
