So, I’ve been working on a tank build, (It’s not like I’m waiting on OBT-senpai or anything (Insert :tsundere_face: (see bottom))) and honestly no matter how I look at it there’s no reason to take Peltasta to Rank 3.
The problem is really the scaling on the skills, with Guardian the difference between level 10 and level 15 is +9 PDef… and it get’s better, you lose -18 PATK, also keep in mind that’s for 5 skillpoints. WOO gimme some of that! (Sarcasm in case you didn’t understand)
Swash buckling - 16 enemies provoked vs 21 enemies… Maybe useful? I really don’t think there should ever be 20 enemies attacking your party at the same time though.
High Guard is maybe the only good advantage in tanking capabilities of R3, if you’re a pure tank and don’t mind the -50% attack+crit rate reduction then leveling this is great. Although, one thing to note is that leveling it up only gives more block and you will still only be able to have it up half the time.
Sure Pel3 gives some attack skills, but if you want attack skills you could just pick a different class. Alright, thanks for reading and please feel free to tell me how wrong I am.
My build in case you wanted to know: (Edited new build in)
I would have gone for Cata but… the extra 30% block on Finestra.

since you don’t have to care about what the boss is doing (or mobs)
