For a Paladin who tanks the Sentinel plus the spawns; does it help using shadow resistance gear, if so, how much?
For a Paladin who tanks only the spawns; does it help using shadow resistance gear, if so, how much?
Reason i ask is our pally doesn't want to spend ~1.5k gold on the set, if it helps, he's gonna need it, so i need to know for sure that it helps. Therefore if u can give a reason as to why it helps rather than "ye our guild did that lol" it would be great (apologies if this sounds rude). I'm pretty sure it CAN be done both ways.
Also a sub-question. Is it worth grouping up 2 sets of spawns before AoEing or should they always be killed as they come before the second set of spawns have arrived?

While we're still on muru.... not yet killed... heres what ive found :O
I wear 273 shadow resist, and tank about 2 waves of spawns at a time. (Neck, cloak, boots, belt) Then i stack spell damage for threat!
If you can heal a paladin through sentinal tanking plus voids... well.... wow you have some crazy healers o_o.
The sentinal hits like a truck, and in full shadow resist you wont be able to tank it.
Shadow resist does help mitigate a LOT of the void spawns shadowbolts though. Their melee damage is almost completely eaten away from block value.
Also note in that set of shadow gear and t6, im at 483 defense which is enough for the spawns, but im also not gemmed 15 stam every socket like a lot of people.
