RoS, PL, and GA (in General)

We all know that the RoS isn't all too great as of now...

So I just thought of an idea where PL can be used in combination with GA and the RoS. The PL can absorb, say, 25% of the RoS level (just like DM) without interfering with GA.

I've always debated whether to use GA or PL in strategies I've been thinking up, and I'd really love to see a team where it can utilize them together. This would open up more variety of strategy, and give some more viable alternatives to just the ToE or ToA for tat choices.

Tezmac.

I've seen Tezmac.

I was saying that GA could still retaliate damage while PL absorbs...

Well that's what he does. The blows are usually big, so he absorbs some of it, not all of it. So the remaining Damage can hit the intended target and GA can be used to Maximum effect.

Oh yeah, that's true. I forgot about that.

Take out the GA penalty for when damage is > than GA level then x.x

That was my strategy for quite a while but it was too hard to balance the PL against the GA while climbing up the ladder with NUB.
I'm definitely considering adding PL back in now that I'm at the wall and I know pretty much who all my opponents are.
It's definitely easier to go with only one and pump it up to get the most out of it but maybe PL can help stop GA being overwhelmed while also doing its usual job.

I really like this idea. Not just because I use an RoS either... actually. No, that's EXACTLY why I like this idea. That and I feel that the RoS needs some sort of improvement ever since the DM resistance was lowered... I think that a PL/GA improvement would not GREATLY improve the RoS but it would certainly spice it up a bit.

Please?

Exactly. The RoS still sucks too.

Hmm.

Well, anyone have other ideas to boost the RoS? Other than increasing ED or DM resistance... those are too boring.
