No, not defenses... we're talkin AEQ and build thoughts here. There are those that are 4 AEQ builders and those that are 3 AEQ builders... and plenty that have either done, do, or have tried both ways (raises hand). I got to thinking about the true differences and it really boils down to this;
Excluding whatever bonus you get with the 4th piece (which runs the gamut so no sense in trying to argue apples and oranges... let's just all agree getting the extra 'bonus' is a good thing to some degree.) the overall tangible gain you get is the extra training of your secondary skills VS the +3 you get to your Primary skill. 420 (maximum #) BT's VS the extra days you can stay with multi-training because you don't need those BT's.
MY question is this because, in truth, I couldn't tell you one way or another, despite doing this for a long time myself, which produces a better end result... if any difference at all. So... to all those better builders than I out there who might have just done a lot more in-depth study of this, I pose the question... 4 or 3 AEQ build style?
(Please realize I do know some archetypes virtually DEMAND a 4 AEQ build while others might not. Thanks in advance.)
