Just wondering how useful the skill is...
Is it really going to make a difference?

It's a skill to take when you are planning on using heavy armor.  Since the good armor will reduce your damage taken to smaller amounts, each extra HP means a lot more with respect to how many hits you can survive.   If you have poor armor, a few more HP isn't going to make a big difference.  So yeah, great skill for heavy armor tanks, unnecessary for everyone else.

I'd say if you're planning on having body armor at least in the mid 50's it's a skill you should strongly consider, below that, you could probably put those points somewhere better.

I agree with the consensus. Its really only useful for heavy armor and if you grab a lot of IF. 1-2 points is useless.

If you can get 6+ IF it's definitely useful, no matter if you're planning on running in light armor or heavy armor.

I tried a couple of builds that had 5 if. The increase in survivability was not very noticeable using Banded armor.

With this game, since most people are dead in 1-3 hits, you want either to invest enough into your HP or damage to actually make enemies take more hits to kill you or put your points where they will do more good.

Well my build goes from 54 hp to 70 hp with 7 IF, that difference is very noticeable.

Conclusion everyone gets hit.  So get some Ironflesh.

The problem is even if you are number 1 in NA you are still only number 467 in EU or the worst in AUS(number 17)
