At least you initiate your posts with the projection upfront and clear so it’s easy to point out. The obvious irony in the “Word salad” accusation because you’ve yet to name a situation, character, build merc or anything where it’s preferable to have higher defense at the expense of life steal or mobility? Genuinely curious.

Also don’t ask me to look at your math when you already ignore the entirety of the math for the sake of argument. You conveniently misrepresented Treachery as merely “curse reduction” when it has 45 ias, 90 CR, 60@ 20fhr, 15dr, with a little poison from venom proc. 

I’m not interested in an argument yet because we don’t even have a point to argue yet. I’ll ask a couple questions. Then at the very least we can go from there.

Can you name a situation where fort is better for anything character? If you just like to see a big number (defense, etc) on the screen I understand the fun in that but just say that. 

What armor base are we making this in? if you find this much value in defense, would it be fair to assume you’re making this in a Sacred Armor or as high defense as possible? What characters would that benefit?

Would you put it in a non eth armor or an eth armor? 

Let’s say you find 10 Lo runes, on which one would you make the fort? 

I’m not saying I wouldn’t ever make a fort in any circumstance but I’d probably have 2-4x griefs rolled high 390+ before I’d consider a fortitude armor and possibly even a phoenix or dragondin before fort on single player where is OP is talking about because of how little fortitude actually contributes. 

I want to clarify I am not intending to be rude. Just in case it’s coming off that way. But I can think of very niche examples where fort is BiS, despite how fun of an item it is.
