/Bump for help please

When they did server combines, I went to Radiant from Valcyn (on Valcyn since CU)...stayed on Radiant for a while before sub ended. Too much down spirals for me to re-sub...but I do miss it

I posted this in a different section in error, so I am sorry for the duplicate post. Hello All - I'm somewhat of a fresh L50 and to get a better handle of "Guardian" I've ben queue'ing up in FP's as DPS but it is my desire to be a tank. I've read the sticky (a very nice one) and some other threads but I'm confused on a couple things. #1 - How do you calculate points into stats? I saw this awful looking formula and I'm hoping to have someone explain it simply please. If I am using a piece of gear that gives +XX DEF/+XX Shield...how many points equals a percentage? To put it in perspective...this is what I would like to try and do since this is what I think seems to be the suggested defensive stats. END>STR>DEF>Shield Rating>Shield Absorption ~30%>50%>50% So how many "points" to I need to have in order to get those percentage points? I'm trying to get to be a good tank, statistically anyway, so I work on technique and then learn to be a valued member of a group...any advice would be greatfully appreciated Honor & Respect! YC

Hello - Yoshii Capone/Eeksynn Capone originally from Valcyn, then Radiant....anyone I know from SWG out there?? YC
