Glove Reinforcements

Just think... you can add 240 armor to your gloves just by strapping the sundered essences of approximately 300 earth elementals and 90 knothide leathers to them.

This spell should be named, "Convert gloves to giant boxing gloves."

These are the best glove enchants for end game tanking, mitigation wise. 2% threat is better in only a few situations, nothing else is even close.

Actually, this IS the best enchant a tank can get end game, because although armor has diminishing returns, the amount that it mitigates per point of armor %wise increases.

theres a graph. For a discussion on this see:

go look at section V. Armor.

The amount of dmg you still take after reduction is decresed by an increasing percent per additional point of armor, so these clearly ARE the top glove enchant. assuming your not an avoidance stacker... then ur just bad and theres no hope for u anyway.
