If someone has SoT or BSS on SV wont land.......

BSS has more hps but SV has +30 atk )

If you cast SV and BMB is on them SV will over ride it )

other than that thats all I can think of atm )

Generally for tanks brells is better but for pure dps like monks rogues SV is better. I leave rangers out of this group because ranger have an ever better buff to cast SoT. If there is a ranger around its probably not worth even loading up SV.

SV blocks SoT and BSS

SV also blocks monk epic and cleric/paladin YAULP spells.

Generally if we have a pally in our group with BSS I let him cast it and dont use SV.

If no BSS is there, I cast SV all the time and tell clerics/Paladins/Monks to click off the effect if they have the spell/item that it blocks.


Paladins love to use Yaulp and so do clerics, I dont think there is a situation, where a Paladin would rather have SV than BMB or BSS.  BMB + Yaulp they say is better than SV, so let them click off and recast.

The differences:

Strength of Tunare Ranger level 65  +60 atk +125hp  
Will not stack with any other, will not overwrite any other

Spirit of Vigor Beastlord level 62  +40 atk +225hp
Will not stack with any other, will not overwrite any other.

Brells Mountainous Barrier Paladin level 60  +225hp
Will not stack with any other, will not overwrite any other.

Brells Stalwart Sheild Paladin level 65  +330hp
Will not stack with any other, will not overwrite any other.

If you ever get BMB or SoT, take em off and put on SV.  +20 atk does not do much for you anyways.  If you are looking to get more hp then you are attack, take off SV and take the paladins BSS.  But, for me I love SV over all others since we got the middle of the 2.  It's only 95hp less then the BSS and gives 100hp more then SoT.  As far as atk, you only lose 20 atk going from SoT to SV. Also you gain 40 atk substitute BSS for SV.

Just for clarification, BMB gets overwritten by SV, BSS doesnt.

Go with what you can get.  There are a lot of times where hps won't matter and atk can make some differance.  Other time hps matter and you'd probably opt for BSS.  SV is nice because it is middle ground and you don't have to ask anyone for it or worry about not having it.  In most cases I'd take SoT, then SV, almost never use BSS.
