Thoughts on my tentative future build?
I want to build the best tank possible! Something that doesn’t seem to be easy in this game, as far as I’m aware. I want something i can quest with but is focused on end game party tanking.
Question is 2h necessary for dop? or can you use the skill with 1hand shield?
All suggestions and insight is welcome :).
Thanks.
Only if you go circle 2 are you pushed into 2 handed swords.
Your skill build is very good except for a few things:
Punish isn’t very good. It has a long animation and is a pain to use.
You might want to get Deeds of Valor. It’s an amazing buff. You don’t have to use it all the time, but it’s definitely useful in many situations. Remember, a 50% reduction to defense doesn’t mean a 50% increase in damage taken. It means 50% of the damage reduction from defense is lost. If you would have reduced 200 damage per hit, you’ll instead only reduce 100 damage per hit. If the enemy is hitting for 800 damage before defense, that’s only a ~17% increase in damage received.
Double Pay Earn isn’t very good. It’s probably going to get buffed or reworked somehow in the future. It sounds SUPER good on paper, but it’s just very rarely actually useful. Those 2 points would be better invested taking Cyclone to 5.
Thanks!!
