This item is somewhat odd...

I really like the focus and the clicky. But the AC on this is a little off for a Pofire raid drop... 15AC, is this intentional? All ST range items (and yeah, we have plenty) have at least 55AC. Maybe 70 would be more appropriate since it's from PoFire?

Just my 2cents

Really made for classes that dont tank and for healers. Although the paladin is listed as a class but i cant remember a paladin ever being used as a healer.

The item's selling point is its right click effect not the AC.

Leave it as it is, there are more fishes to fry....

^ It may not be important for you given your guild's raiding level & gear. But for lesser folks, this makes a lot of difference especially to pallys who actually patch heal (if the AC is more appropriate for the gear tier)

The server is suppose to be balanced for everyone, not just for top-end raiders.

Intended. Next please.

Nothing wrong with this item the way it is right now. As a pally I use it. I use this item on cleric / shm. Who never tank. Granted AC is always welcome but from the NPC that drops it. The AC is reasonable for how easy it is to get. You don't have to be a top end raider to kill this NPC. I agree with Kron to leave it alone.

Alrighty, thanks for the FYI Tyler

Venge, top-tier guilds won't have a problem with the mob, we both know that. I was referring to guilds who are still doing ToV/ST. I remember dying to PoFire mold droppers just from AEs/ramps too many times just a couple months ago /shudder

Just saying AC is a very important stat... and thought this Pofire item is a little odd.
