Back Enchants

[Applesaucey]

Hi,
As an aspiring twink I have been looking at other twinks to see what they do. I noticed that Podie, another shadow priest, enchants his cape with Stealth (+8 dodge +8 agility) instead of something like Superior Defence (+70 armour) even if he wanted dodge wouldn't it be better to go Dodge (+12 dodge)? I know that agility gives critical chance but it seems pretty minor even at level 10 (1 agility = 0.08%) Can anyone enlighten me?
Thanks

May be wrong but pretty sure 12 dodge is gf-Ed in a complicated way

gf-Ed?

Ok. And the dodge is thought/known to be better than the armour in most situations?

Personally I would use +5 resistance or +70 armor as spellcaster. The agility barely adds any crit.

That. And pretty sure agility only affects melee and not spells.

Get two backs..

Enchant one with agility/dodge and the other one with resistance.
The resistance one should be your primary cloak.
You should use the agi/dodge when dueling melee classes.

But remember, you can't dodge/parry etc. When you're casting.

Stealth is now considerably better, since we can now dodge ranged and spells. ( from the front)

But the +resistance chants, since they still work both as a dmg reduction and as a chance to fully resist are BiS against casters, and are also now GFed.
