Forum > Position Talk > D Line Club > AEQ w/Break Thru ... Does The SA Really Work?

My NT just rolled the chance to buy a second piece of AEQ with the SA Break Thru on it. Its actually a +3 Vision, +1 BT piece. As an NT, positionally, they used to get double-teamed a lot.

A] Do they really still?
B] Does the Break Thru SA help the NT?
C] Is it worth doubling up on that?

Thanks.

I think you could find much better pieces, it's not that hard to raise break through to 4 or 5 naturally (6 or 9 SPs). The SA is still good, but you'd get a bigger bonus by getting some of the harder to reach SAs...

Ideally youd get a Strong Base piece and handle Shed Block, Wall, Break Thru with SPs. Thats if youre not looking to get thm 10+ . That said there are worse pieces you could get up pretty high. To get to Strong BAse you gotta go through Swat BAll and thats not terrible. One thing is the bump to VIS. Im thinking thats not enough value to justify the piece. Youll prob only get VIS to the 60s so youd only get 9 SP value on that piece, where plus 3 AGI when you have it around 100 might mean 30 SP value.

A) Yeah you get doubled but every time like earlier seasons? Nah.
B) Yeah probably but you most likely just reengage one of the blockers.
C) If I was looking to SAs now Id be looking at Wall and Strong BAse. Something to resist being pushed back and something to push back with.

Thanks for the feedback.

Ideally, I want the General piece. I have yet to see that drop, though. With the first piece and SP's, my NT has an 8 in Break Thru. I'll keep an eye out for either Wall or Strong Base.

I have been told that Bort confirmed that BreakThrugh adds directly to your Break Block chance. If that is true, than breakthrough is a pretty good piece to have. I am debating if I want to replace 1str/shedblock for 2str/breakthrough piece on my DE.

I do not have a link to post here to confirm what I said, like I mentioned this is all hearsay and I am not sure myself and looking for confirmation.

I rolled a piece of Shed Block last night. So, while I have no % modifiers anymore, I do have some nice pieces to help get free of blocks.
