Advice on being a Tank and which stats to focus on

Hey Members,

 

Just a quick question about being a Tank for all Toon selection and its based on these stats:

 

1) Shield Rating

2) Absorbtion Rating

3) Defence rating

 

With 3 different stats its hard to think hmmm which one should be higher or lower then the other.

Has anyone just focused on just on of those stats like Defence rating and nothing else?? What would happen

And same applies for Shield Rating and Absortion Rating and nothing else??

 

What should the values kind of be towards I am an PVE only player so dont worry your secrets wont be used in PVP mode.

 

Anyone know a Guild for republic thats purely Dark Jedi only, I am working on Dark themed only Republic Toons.

 

Thanks for reading and replying in due time.

 

Hope everything stays safe

That's OK, I believe that "skank tank" (tank discipline with lots of DPS gear) is still a thing in PvP.

You'll have to give us more information, at least:

* What kind of activities you like.

* Which server.

* What time(s) you play, including timezones.

for sin/shadow you likely want around 200 more absorb than shield

for jugg/gaurd equal shield and absorb

for pt/vanguard you want 1000 more shield than absorb

 

i suggest the warding relic with the static stat one.
