Deadbladey Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) Someone please tell me the name of the person that decided to have Tanking relics with power on them! I want to KILL him it should be Defense rating/absorb rating or more Endurance Edited February 18, 2012 by Deadbladey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saberarturia Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 A bit of power doesn't really hurt. You do want to poke mobs hard enough for them to be annoyed afterall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SootyTX Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Not everything has to stack endurance or defences - overloading defensive abilities results in significantly reduced damage, and therefore significantly reduced threat. Power on tank gear makes absolute sense in THIS game where threat control isn't easy mode due to ridiculous modifiers on abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaearth Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I dunno, He-Man was kinda tanky... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesperr Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) We dont need more endurance than the minimum req for bosses (around 16k), healers dont care about your max hp as long as you are alive, they do care about how much they'll have to heal though (aka mitigation). You get your shield/absorbtion from relic by using it during burst phases, or you can get matrix cube with all passive stats, or get relic from 4th (droid) boss in karragas, its quite awesome.

Chunkie Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Just because an item has high endurance doesn't mean it's a tank item. Getting endurance high as a tank is easy enough, everything else has high endurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what he said at all. Reading comprehension, is this not being taught in school anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconax Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 You will find in later content that holding aggro is not very easy, and having a bit of power can go a long way. Threat isn't faceroll in this game like it is in WoW, and you need to be very careful to keep your threat stats up to keep pace with the dps.
