What would be the best tanker?

Warrior (1h)/ Cleric or Blader with only fire


I say only fire, cause in the end you'll get to choose one...And I'm doing everything manually so probably before I reach the 130 with a blader the 140 cap is coming out soon

Warrior sub Cleric.

That's a really fast reply...

But if a warrior is the strongest tanker, what's the point of making a blader Except that it's the coolest character in the whole game...

Warrior is much better tanker ...
Warrior:
1. He can taunt mobs , blader has hard time with it so he sucks at tanking
2. He has skins + bless , making him impossible to kill
3. He has vital increase
4. He has KB with shield that has 80% to success.

Blader:
1. Pot spamming
2. Dunno =/

blader can actually tank a little better

vital increase... pot spam it
skins/protect... snow shield, ice/fire wall
recovery division... pot again
bless spell... just freeze him
kb... kd 30% less chance but cooldown isnt shared on different books

Blader with only fire. What ice skills are you dreaming about.

Because of that, Warrior/Cleric. It would have been warrior/cleric anyway though, put on the cleric rod and the cleric buffs, and you can tank indefinitely, even a rogue/cleric can tank indefinitely like that.

But it really depends how you define tank....although either way, warrior cleric wins, haha.

If it is only blade/ fire warrior/ cleric wins in tanking.

Have you ever heard about universal pills? And cleric has a buff that makes u inmune to ice

1h Sword Warrior is best Tanking...it has a lot of Phy.Def. & Taunt

Hmm...a very late reply...

Again, what's the point of making a blader?

warrior is the best tanker BUT only for a limited time. till skins/bless is use.
Blader is a better tanker for long fights.

what the heck r u talking about?!!!
a warrior can tank for 45+45 seconds with skins and bless.. leaving him with only 30 seconds of cooldown for reuse of either.. in those 30 seconds he can easily survive without anything, or just cast two "healing cycle" spells on a row, where each of them lasts for 16 secs.
warriors ARE the best takers there are.. added to this the fact that they can switch to 2H, and deal massive amounts of damage.. warrior/clerics are the best class there is IMHO
(P.S.. i am a rogue! this isn't being in love of my own character)

Blader survives longer, true. But, a blader mostly can't prevent party members being attacked by mobs.
BEST TANKER = Survive under heavy attack + Protect party members
BLADER = TRUE + FALSE(in most cases)
WARRIOR = TRUE + TRUE
Warriors are best tankers, bladers are semi-tankers.

Bladers have no aggro. All I can hope is that they KD the mob when it starts coming to me. =\

But I guess in chinese parties they are good. *shrug*

Well both sides have pros

Warrior/Cleric

-Pure Str
-Can have a shield
-Mana Skin
-Iron Skin
-Cleric Buffs (too many to list for me)

Blader

-Pure Str
-Has a shield
-Numerous Passive Skills
-Numerous Buffs
-Basically a non-existant pot delay.



Personally, in a fight, it depends on who has the better weapons and armor. If equally matched… I truly don’t know. I would shoot for the Blader though. A warrior can do only so much with the pot delay.

best tank = 1h/cleric, or max fire/ice/bich blader

diff? 1h/cleric CANT kill and cant be killed with (80%KB shield crush, skin, bless) but blader can actually kill something with bleed etc. status

Warrior/Cleric

Warrior is better tank, but bladers rapes warriors in 1vs1.

1h cleric is alot better tank but a worser solo 1h is better due too all his def buffs from cleric and mana/iron skin but blader is better at solo and blader can do this if he has a really good set http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA1qj3mnLxE like this full sos/som dude no 1h is gonna be able too do this solo

wow man. great vid. 32lvl blader actually killed a shakram lvl61 mob
Europian chars designed for party play. They are not good at solo(exceptions:rague and warlock).

For solo play, best tanker is BLADER.
For party play, best tanker is 1H WARRIOR.

He wouldn't be able to do that either w/o all his SoX gear and no pot delay...nothing special '~,~

Warrior/Cleric is the overall better tanker. People make the pot delay seem like it's something horrid, and it's not '~,o. Warrior/cleric can solo and pt play; just use 1h for partying, and 1h/2h for soloing (1h incase you need a boost of extra def if you're in a tight spot).

the best tank is a damn blader with ice. comon...

Warrior no contest duh.

1h/ clerics cant kill if they r underfarmed.. a proper 1H/cleric will farm 2H skills as well, and those CAN kill.. just needs good timing to switch betw 1H and 2H in the right time, preferably on a stunned opponent

oh well, i juz said a pure 1h/cleric cant kill, not a 2h
he didnt specify 2h in posts too

yep.. just talking in general
