What do people generally think is better? Or is there some other good atma for tanking?

I used to use Apocalypse, Razed Ruins, and Gnarled Horn, but I just got Cloak and Dagger. Was wondering if it was better than Gnarled Horn?

If you're going to use C&D I'd go with RR/GH/C&D dropping Apoc for it. But I can't really think of a situation where I'd do that.

Dark Depths gives more evasion than Gnarled Horn anyway.

I can't think of any situation aside from tyrant tusks that I'd use it over GH to be honest. 30 ACC is not worth an atma slot, use food if you can't cap in gear and cruor buffs with RR

yup only time i dropped GH was for einherjar when spamming my sobeks
still got me on occasion too lol

Atma of the Siren Shadow would be your better choice

Attack+:Major (+40), Evasion+:Major (+40
Enhances "Resist Paralyze" Effect:Major

Depends on job and mob. GH is usually a good compromise between dps and eva, so if you can handle the mob with that go for it. Switch to C&D or SS if the mob has higher acc, depending on the food you are going to use and on mob eva/def. Basically use your brain, there's not a "better" one.
And lol at some of the previous answers.

If you're on an evasive job to start with, RR/GH/DD is going to cap your evasion regardless what gear you're wearing. Your best aid in figuring this stuff out is just to use a parser and see what evade rate you're parsing. If you're evading 80% of the time (getting hit 20% of the time) then you're capped.

GH only gives like 5-10 less evasion than C&D, not worth it really, other than like sobek, like people allready said.
