Rdm Tanking Nerf..... ?
rdm tanking nerf..... ?
why are ppl saying rdm nin (and drk) tanks are dead? No one even knows by how much the enmity was decreased. Hell, no one know if it was decreased, it might have been increased! Not likely, but yeah...

RDM tanking is soooooooooo 2006. If your LS use RDM tanks, you should tell them to use monks or pups or.. w/e melee. Just because RDM is (was?) better than PLD doesn't mean it was a good tank in the first place. On anything that takes melee damage, a DD is superior. I'm more concernerd about aquaveil. I think they want to prevent RDM from capping.

You all seem to forget BLU exists as a tank, but you learn soon enough.

pup is not one of the original 6 jobs, it sucks though!
Didn't read it all but "adjusted" doesn't necessarily mean nerf. Could be boosting because of all the new abilities we're getting.
You know, if a drk/nin tried to tank w/o engaging, he would only have enmity tools like what, stun/bind/blind (if they even have bind and blind, cant remember, doesnt matter)? not nearly enough. And Scythe WSs suck for dmg so they cant even get enmity from that ( see sam, hurrr, 500-1.5k WSs depending on mob every 15s, hello).
So yeah, DRK tank is dead. And PLD just cant keep up with DPS enmity from samurai, neither can any job tbh. So yeah, there you have it kids, you are welcome.

People who have no idea what generates CE and VE, or how DRK tanks work... should stop passing their opinion as fact.
Yeah, it's a shame DRK can't use a weapon with a strong singlehit weaponskill. That would be crazy!
Assuming you go from fighting lvl 85 to say just lvl 90 mobs usually the emnity gained from dmg goes down by 5-6%.
While emnity from curing going from lvl 75 to lvl 80 target is about the same amount.

Drk holds hate without engaging better than pld with atonement and engaging. Herpderplearntoemnity. Once you reach the cap all that matters is staying capped. The ability to spam spells to keep yourself there is tanking. Also, if you're a drk tank on something like HNM you're probably Tping in soul eater which way out damages most sams. Drk/nin will out damage most jobs on Cerberus/fafnir/nidhogg/tiamat fairly easily if used correctly. I guess by dead you mean its not on wikipedia's strategy list, which I'm assuming is where 99% of end game shells these days get their tactics from but I assure you you are mistaken sir.

Indeed, all their WSs are piss *** weak. Even scourge is lolololololololo. Tho even if it was any good it would still lack the store tp to be of any use, unless you take out the survivability.

If you're not getting sufficient acc/attack buffs for Scythe weaponskills to be useful, it would likely be more useful to use a Greatsword and Spinning Slash. Catastrophe is of course the exception but this being a relic weaponskill...
The best way to tank an hnm that you don't want to tp feed will be a wall which you will trick attack. Anything that has high HP/magic def/melee damage down/cap haste will work. Inbefore monk in full AF2 and double march on AV.

I don't think the difference between SS and Tachi: Gekko is as big as you make it out to be, especially given DRK has superior melee DoT.
