.6 dr wont do jack shit. It all gets rounded down. So unless you combine it with other armor, .6=0. For those who wanna maximize every single point of ac/dr, a little variation from 1-color suit may be in order.

green - 45 - Green 47.4/3.5

black - 40 - Black 37.5/5.5

red - 45 - Red 41.5/5.1

blue - 45 - Blue 45/6

white - 35 - White 34.5/6.1



Overall, Blue is the best..no need to mix and match=P The +.6 DR puts it up to /6 DR, which is better than the 5's and 3.

You may have some other items to already give you that .6dr, so you could mix colors for more ac. :D

Green dragons (based on D&D) are pretty easy, id say 2 level 35 guys. If its a real green dragon it would have a poison gas cloud for attack. I dont know the stats on the mud dragon but mud seems to follow D&D fairly closely

zan is right..for the area..



but he was wondering about the boss, the great green dragon..and it's not 2 level 35 chars:) I'd say a well-rounded group of level 50-55's

Depending on your other eq tho, you can mix a green piece into your blues and get an extra AC out of it without losing a DR.



My Ranger:



blue dragon gauntlets 5.5 0.8

blue dragon leggings 6.5 0.9

blue dragon tunic 21 2.6

blue dragon helm 7 1

green dragon boots 5.5 0.2

platinum bracers 1.5 0.5

cat's-eye pendant 0 0

adamantite ring 0 0

ruby-eyed skull ring 1 0

mantle of the woodsman 3 0.4

darkwood shield 5 0.6

hellblade 0 0

sunstone wristband 1 0

lionskin belt 1 0

== ==

58 7



To be 59/7.1 as soon I can get a damn blackwood shield to drop from a chest. But I can also throw on a spiked obsidian collar, in which case I go back to the blue dragon boots, and be 59/8 now, 60/8.1 with the blackwood. Really just depends on your other armor.



Whats nice is when you factor in the 1 AC from quest and throw barkskin on, Im at 64/10, or 65/11 with the spiked obsidian/blue boots.
