Equip
1. Weapon
1H + Arrow version :
1H
a. Toy Hammer (Crit 100 Cdmg - 150) hit is guaranted

Perfect for nightmare/ultimate + gem run tank.
Miss will not generate aggro. And also wont give AMPR per hit. So this sword completes any 1h tank.
It cames along with Nightmare potum xtal (Aggro + 10%, Fractional Barrier 2%, HP - 5%).
Imo fractional barrier is useful. Too bad its only 2% reduction.
​

b. 1H Phyto Blade NPC Version for 10% magic resistance ( ruin golem or Zega) -

Use this when you do normal/hard/ low evasion mobs ​

c. Sacred xmas sword for dark resistance

Use this when you do normal/hard/ low evasion mobs and Dark Element
​

Arrow :
Artisan Arrow for motion and mp or mushroom arrow for additional aggro

Weapon BG + Shield version :
<Under construction>
BG :
Shield :

2. Armor :
a. Brigandine Light Version (roga, mp150, ruin golem, arco)
b. Twilight Dress Diff 70-90 (roga, ruin golem, arco)

3. Add : this one is tricky. (Ruin Golem)
a. hero scarf/Brigan helm for additional aggro an HP.
white silver necklace for 10% mresist.
b. Frill cape for water resistance
c. Unicorn helm / Agios Hat for Dark resistance
d. Fox Ears for Fire resistance
e. Holy earring for Light Resistance
f. reserved for remaining element

4. Ring :
a. Magician ring(stone merc)for mp pool
b. Mistletoe talisman 2s. (goouva and mp150)

my aim at this build is to have high magic resistance yet relying on sanctuary.
Control aggro from distance

Combo Section:
Here are my current combos using 1h :
its subject to change to adapt bosses pattern

Spoiler: Combo 1

Spoiler: Combo 2

Spoiler: Combo 3

for flincher combo just replace it w HH

So far. (without equipping any aggro equip). i often get tank rank if theres no rank whore member in pt.

Major drawback is = its lacking interrupting skill.

Now what i need is suggestion for equipment collection. ^^


Thanks for your input

Hai ! I am half newbie (^¥^) and always wants to make a Vit Bs + Tank. (Need orbs qwq)
I think since you have Vit alot, focusing on aggro will be better. For that build cannot get breaker nor attacker nor support, having more aggro to out run other build and get tank would be a good choice (imo )

Instead of investment in impact, maxing rage sword will get more aggro.
And investment on Assault atk is good to consider, too because the build lacks interupt skills. A chance of knock back or slow down will be cool !
And to use Knight Talisman for +25%aggro.
I think Brig.helm also gives aggro, too. +10% ? Idk.

But that's all my opinions though.
Would be a weird tank with no shields.
(i like weirds haha )
+1 like !

 

THanks for the +1 like
when its about aggro level, i need to test my aggro against other first before i decide to increase rage sword.. bec atm i feel 1 lv is enuf.. (well this char isnt for a rank whore tourney tho, so i prolly need to test with certain build to get the feeling how much aggro% additional i shud have)

In my mind, I need impact when i switch my weapon to staff+arrow and i will get higher percentage to tumble (excluding blade skill from combo tho)
assault attack imo its only a filler/opener skill to get first hit tho..

the equip suggestion :
yea you remind me to consider brigan helm for aggro~!!! thanks .... (again, i need to have aggro test battle first before i decide which to use)
y'know, in my mind if i already generate enuf aggro with my combo, next stat that i want to cover is magic resistance and Element resistance. (total 17% resistance from armor will make tank receive less damage)
thats why i only see white silver necklace which has 10% magic resistance.. if theres another equip have 15% magic resistance, i have to get it ^^

 

Yes ! Test it with fu builds. Most of their martial skills generate lots of aggros even without gears. If you can maintain aggro testing with sword/staff/gun fus, and if you apply focus on mdef and mresist, then it will be Anti-Magic Tank !

 

Tank for me bunny san~

 

yeaaa thats what the objective. bec i dont wear shield, i expect i can get more aggro from shot skill so i can focus on resist stat

bunny-chan.... lemme the proper equip 1st. and i will tank for you... forever in my bunneh laifu...

 

Well interesting idea you have there but instead of using blade skill and impact separately to Interrupt bosses why not simply use martial skills instead?
With smash and sonic wave u make up hh and impact for just 20 skill points giving u the chance to learn power wave instead of blade skills + earthbind as stop skill.
For arrow i would sympathise with mushroom over artisan. Mp recovery, stability and aggro are simply imo better then ms +1% while mp+100 should not matter at all in a build with at least 1300 mp.
For armor plate armor or Player crafted vit7%maxhp7%aggro 10% with arcroisis as first crystal and tortuga second.
As additional gear silver necklace to follow the magic decline route unless u are not satisfied with the 17% + Overall.
Then u probably best drop tomahawk for drills and Play knuckle arrow lol

 

This seems like an interesting tank. A couple of things you could consider is getting brigan helm for resistance and aggro. Also for your amor you should get Arcoiris xtal. This is best for tanks and will help you because you have a lot of hp. Using an arrow you probably generate decent aggro but if you need more aggro% I suggest looking at using knight talisman or B.B. Goblin xtal. While you said you don't have shield skills yet the skills will be weaker without a shield equipped. I'm not positive by how much. They will also cost more mp 300 mp without shield to use aegis or protection.

 

at first i also want to have knuckle as my main weapon but knuckle wont let me have ragesword to maintain aggro. and if i have martial skill in my combo, it will lower any fu build in my pt so i prefer use shot skill.. (poor BG user :v). and astute to increase crit it wont miss so much as knuckle tank do(even tho drill exists v). however switching into martial skill is also still being considered. thanks ^^
for mushroom arrow. ikr. mushroom arrow only needed if i lose aggro. otherwise i will be using artisan or the other arrow that raise guard rate(forgot the name). imo mp bonus is the more crucial. (not to mention my other builds are using artisan arrow so its for saving inventory slot as well XD)

im kinda disagree with vit7%maxhp7%aggro 10% armor stat.
My build isnt solely focus on max hp. bec fatal damage is dealt based on ur hp so its kinda less usefull to have max hp stat. my current hp is at 10-11k without any buff.

so last night i tested with sniper and spamming sword fu in Warmong ultimate.
i can hold sniper aggro.. but for sword fu.. he almost got my aggro.. its like 30% tank rank belong to him bec i rarely spam my combo to conserve my mp.

BB gob xtal noted. arcoiris xtal noted as well. well the only arco stat that matters is hp10% tho. while tortuga gives 5%guard rate.
yea shield skill for aegis and protection ..
do they still give same buff effect even tho we dont wear shield?
i thot its only mp usage. as long as its comboable. i can use save and swift tag for them..^^

 

lol BK u quote my full post and it took 5 mnt as i was looking which statement u reply.
ikr. its just the mp cost.. yea i can use it somehow inside combo.

 

i wanna bump this thread bec i still have this char tanking at nure. ^^

 

Can it tank pumpking very hard .-.
Keep aggro against a spam sniper? .-. .-.

 

at nure, i compete with 2 bow spammers. and still win tho on last minute they snatched the aggro. but in the rank showboard? i still got 60%+ tanker bar.
maybe its bec i also use high aggro shot skill like smoke dust and para shot. combined with rage sword and sanctuary..makes this char a decent aggro generator.

 

Ooo so its sword+arrow tank...
Well i am never gonna tank pumpking very hard he is just nasty

 

i also heard that pumpking veryhard is up to her name hehehe.. never tried that. need to giemve it a try someday

 

Keep losing aggro because it keeps going to the middle near the lanterns where i cant attack
While long range snipers can keep spamming
All of this when they nerfed guardians aggro
I just wanna delete my tank now ;-;

 

100% physical or mag resist is not possible.
I've already tried it on my mage (quite a bit more den 100%, can't remember), it seems to taper off or cap at a certain level, either dat or refined gear doesn't add physical or magical resist as is commonly believed. I didn't test further.

It's an interesting idea, but shield might still be better... as u also gain agro when u guard, and u take less damage...
if u can't reduce the damage taken, it will still not be sustainable even if u have alot of hp. for example, if tanking a boss which deals more den 2k hp on u every 10s, it's only a matter of time before u drop.
