Ok well my guild and I have been plvling new peoples up, but we are 76-77 at antelope and xp isnt so nice now. We consist of Cleric - 3x wizard - Rogue - Few chinese. Now here is the situation, how can we pt at attackers without a warrior, there is not one 80x warrior in the entire union /facepalm

Yep, chinese players like Bowers are good, too. They have skills, which have a similar effect like a warrior´s Howling Shout´s/Taunting Target. I think it´s the "Mind Bow" series.

EDIT: Just saw that the effect I said is at the Lv 100 skill of the line... pardon :D

Even with Chinese people attacking the chance of dying is fairly high due to your level. We did on Greece however, have a party of 5-6 Chinese with 2-3 euros running almost every day and the euros very rarely died. If that's not an option party on something a lot lower.

stay at antelopes, let bowers and maybe Xbow lure,
let 1 person tank a real lot, and then kill em fast (in our union shares the tanker used to have over 10 mobs on him all the time >.<).
You should get pretty good exp at antelopes like that ... just make sure you have 2 ppl luring :)

Do you have some bladers in your union/guild? Ask them, I think a lot of bladers skill the two sword-throwlines... I don´t know the name at the moment...
They can tank and lure much mobs, so chinese warriors.

That really depends on the person. We have capped FF players in Venus who still help others in grinding. Isn't that one of the good things in guilds/unions? We help each other.

Anyway, back to the problem:

I don't really know how Chinese hold aggro. The closest to tank you can get to are bladers due to their defenses. But to tank, it's not all about defenses, it's also about taking aggro. You can use the rogue in the party to pull mobs. Then the blader can use blade force skills to get the aggro.

In Chinese, I think nukers get the most aggro. If possible, you can try s/s nukers. Their AoE skills will also help in holding the aggro. With a good cleric and bard, the s/s nuker will most likely be able to do this.

Don't take my word for it though. I personally haven't tried testing mixed or chinese 8/8 pts.

You know how they do it in kSRO?
I've heared they arent using Warriors with taunting at all.
They have anything full STR with Cleric subclass, and they spam Group Healing Breath / Healing Favor / Group Recovery,
and that guy takes aggro ALOT.

So, I guess thats your solution prolly.

that sounds very effective.

that's technically a better tank since he is already constantly healing himself and wielding shield.

in our union parties the one tanking everything is a more str cleric in light armor with a good bard helping him ^^ he doesnt lure though, only take over the mobs that have been lured... works perfectly

Some chinese characters with lightning skills can aggro mobs too, nukers using lightning can aggro a lot. Lion shout and the lightning splash damage.
