First time tank
Hey all,
I never played a tank on live so I never fully understood all of the tanking mechanics. Anyone have any explanations or links to guides on AC, Taunt, grouping, weapon choices, Armor, etc.... Thanks! | ||

lmao seems to be the basic idea of the sk =p I'm just wondering more about how AC really works and how to decide between ac, hp, stam...stuff like that....

Oh, you picked SK - good choice :P AC is good in almost every situation. Even the casters of EQ melee hit like level 99 monks. Same goes for stam/HP. AE spells, DD nukes, and dots you will always take to the face while tanking. Anything with good ac (normally plate) and stam/HP on it, you want. *correct me if i'm wrong - tanks* | |||

Sounds crazy? IT IS!! If you've picked a SK with low int (troll/ogre) then its worth bearing in mind for sustained pulls [You must be logged in to view images.

Don't let anybody steer you from the best tanking class in the game. Everyone wants to down talk warriors, because they can't nuke at 80% exactly, and rogues might have to evade or come in after 5%, but people are just too lazy to let a warrior gain aggro and that's not the warrior's fault, it's the groups job. But that's just me, i'd rather not give away exp to a hybrid because the group's lazy.

http://wiki.project1999.org/index.ph...rated_Warriors There are a few "warrior only" portions, but with regards to gearing, all 3 tank classes are pretty much in the same boat. If you want to tank well, I suggest you memorize.

Thanks but....
Thanks for the replies guys but maybe I was misleading in my OP. I'm already playing a level 16 SK.
I'm looking for a detailed explanation of tanking mechanics like AC mitigation, how taunt works exactly, suggestions on sacrificing AC for stats. | ||
