Shadowknight and warriorFollow

#1 Dec 16 2004 at 12:29 PM Rating: Decent
Ok, I'm really really leaning towards the sks now, but I need to know. What mobs could an sk mt?

And if I was raiding, could I be a secondary tank to a warrior? like against some of the almost impossible mobs?

Built right an Sk can MT the same mobs as other tanks.

I heard there is a three headed dragon, that crits and has aoe. I dunno the name, but I heard that an sk has no chance against tanking it.

I also heard on ppo online one person ever tanked it all the way.....Dirtyj

Specifically I know nothing about what you just said. If an Sk can't tank the same mobs as a Warrior or Paladin, the person built it wrong and focused on dealing damage more than taking damage. An MT needs high Sta/Agi, and pretty decent resists.

Shadowknights are great tanks if they are built for it. You just have to focus on Str/Sta/Agi and worry about Intel a little less. Thats what i did and my SK can solo reds np at lvl 33.

Having a 51 sk i could mt anything that a 55 warrior could mt..i've done it...Having two guildies on a 59 slayer and the other a 60 deathknight(nashua) yes a sk properly built can mt anything a warrior can. It's all about def hp and resists

Yes, an SK built well to MT can do it just as well as a Warrior built to MT.

I do indeed have an SK, and a War, and a Pal, infact I have at least 1 of every class the game has available as of right now. Gotta agree with argh here, you are a ******** for even asking. If you read my post again.

I'll give you a few minutes cause I'm guessing your reading comprehension is that of a 4th grader. Eh fu[red][/red]ck it, I'll just quote it below and save you the trouble.

Notice it says the magic words *built right*? Try flaming me again after your balls have dropped.

So, you think just because he only has a pally (I know he has other characters, just saying in his view) that means he doesn't know anything about the other classes?

Wow, your very ignorant.

Also because he happens to post here and has 3k motherfuc[/i]king posts already so he must know quite a lot about the game. Especially because if youve read any of his posts from before you would know he knew a lot about the game. I might have issues, but they are my issues!!! You can't have em fuc[i]kbag!

Anyways, pay attention before you go off on people.

most slayers cant MT. Its all about resists and high HP/AC. My sk can MT most mobs as well as any other tank. If you goto the main forums youll see a thread about a pally taking out CoV. Most people doubted him but he did it.

Keep in mind that if I listed all of my characters, my sig would take up more space than this thread has so far. How many classes are there? I have *at least* that many characters. I understand your assumption.
Now, back to the topic. To make an SK be MT, you need high Sta/Agi, and decent Str. Deathknight would be the best MC choice, not that you can't MT with other MCs, DK just makes it easier. Depending on race, there is perhaps 1 or 2 Racial MCs that could work.

No theres nothing wrong with you, I'm sure his name is intended to have some kind of a wierd sexual meaning.

k thanks for the info and not makin me sound like a freak argh

With a 42 SK of my own (blood path, doing Heroic Hunter MC), built on advice from several 60's of both MC's, I've observed that an SK built for the purpose can MT any time, any where. Ideally, the best SK MT is a Death Knight with TP's put into STA, STR, AGI in that order, with every DEF mod and resist CM available.

Having seen a 56 DK tank Bertoloxxus no problem with my own eyes, I'd say if you want an evil MT, then go DK and concentrate more on pure tanking attributes than duelling/soloing ability.

As always, it comes down to character construction and player skill. Have fun!

SK's can tank just fine! Living/tooning proof in Nashua and myself! I Haven't tanked REDICULOUS mobs yet, but did bloodletter with a nec and a healer, and Impaler 2 mins later with no prob.

I can solo a Nashua though! :P

Gee.......thanks? That really wasn't my purpose, im too lazy to think of an actual name.


Thanks for the advice everyone! I had to ask because of several people in my group saying that an sk could never mt like a warrior.......They probably have just seen some really crappy sks though.

Could a Troll Sk(Savage) be a good MT? and what stats do u get for the mc?
#23 Dec 17 2004 at 5:08 PM Rating: Decent

Yes, a Troll Savage could be built to MT. Pretty much any of the tank MCs *can* be built to MT, only thing is that some MCs are better suited for it than others. Not knowing any specific people with MT built tanks. Ask Nashua about DK MTs. Byron about Soldier MTs. If anybody else knows, or has an MT built tank, chime in with your stats, and what MC you are/or planning to be.

i feel that DK gave me the best chance to be a MT. +65 AR PR DR and + 50 int givs me a great boost,i dont need to add as much to int, can focus on DEF attributes. We may be alil low on HP but we got high AC.
