Phoenix.Avelle said: I would like to see this, don't believe I've ever seen a BLU tank anything at all, ever. Mostly cause no one lets them. So they stick to the DDing. Granted I've ended up tanking in most my abyssea pts just from DD. But you should check out the emnity value of blu spells. Even the buffs can be huge amounts of hate. Which can be AOEd once every 10-20 min.
Also Sanguine blade properly built (on a blu or rdm) can do comparable dmg to atonement on alot of harder targets but ya know gets you hp back

That's not what I feel makes PLD a safer tank. For one, it doesn't rely as much on the support of others, granted it's more difficult to tank without it, but it's near impossible with unconventional tanking methods. It's easy to keep shadows up through blocking, with either Reprisal, and/or a Shield Skill set. PLD can also heal itself if the mages are having trouble, or to spike their hate, and though un-desirable, in the event the tank dies, a PLD is able to regain hate much quicker than other jobs. Blu can do all those things better than pld IMO Perhaps not the shadows... But like Ive been saying, basically since I entered this thread, Im not arguing what's more efficient.
Jobs that can tank:
PLD/nin
Whm/nin
RDM/nin
Blu/NIN
drk/nin
sam/nin
war/nin
thf/nin
nin/drk
blm/nin
sch/nin (probably)
brd/nin (used to with mazurka)
dnc/nin
K every job but bst and pup can tank.
/thread
Sure any job can tank /nin, but then aren't you gimping DD output by doing so? Or gimping healing capability.
Not really saying PLD is better cause ... well they kinda aren't, but if your gonna say any job can tank, shouldn't they be able to tank without /nin sub?

Blu can't DD at all while tanking. For that reason its worse than pld.
Pld DD wasn't mentioned in that.
He's talking about Atonement, which no matter what your set up, is consistent damage.
I know what he's talking about. The point is it wasn't what *you* were talking about.
That's not the point, I was only getting pissed off because I was being trolled about something I hadn't even touched on..

Cerberus.Excelior said: Blu can't DD at all while tanking. For that reason its worse than pld. It is however safer than PLD for the most part, which is the crux of his argument. If Atonement was not a factor for whatever reason BLU would have a decent edge over PLD. ie, the situations where people used RDM tanks.
That said, BLU can use the Magian PDT sword... so in theory we could at least toss out a physical spell or two every now and then. I don't find it worthwhile for most situations, but it's an option. There's also Sanguine Blade, which we have better gear for.
Phoenix.Avelle said: I would like to see this, don't believe I've ever seen a BLU tank anything at all, ever.
It's basically RDM-1 (pre-patch) for tanking. Weaker Fast Cast, weaker Stoneskin, no Composure, no Phalanx, but similar hate gain and self-sufficiency along with goodies like Cocoon.

PLD can't even tank without nin sub. Well, at least not without smn rotations or an army of healers for pld/rdm.
This game is completely shadow dependent.

Lol I wasn't trolling regarding that comment. You're aruging that blu does everything much more effectively than pld. (You didnt mention DD) You're just ignoring the fact the exact problem this entire thread was discussing is that pld is obsolete compared to DD tank. The statement that blu does less damage than pld logically means that blu is even further removed from effective tanking than pld.

RDM/BLU is a nice situational tank, mainly in a lowman context but yah. On the whole I agree! Utsusemi's damage reduction is really extreme.

You stand at 13'-14' when you tank JOL. Your biggest VE hate spells are Temporal shift and Acetenic burst. They have a range of 5'ish. What rotation would you use for hate that only involves self range buffs and cures?

Could also use Pollen due to low MP cost and fast recast, Chaotic Eye, and if /WAR provoke. If Im remembering correctly, Saline Coat also produces a fair amount of hate, though dont quote me on that.

Sheep song and Soprofic have ***range, Yawn is decent, though I think still too low... Jettatura, I honestly cant remember but it has a long recast time, so probably worthless anyways. Blitztrahl has a long range also, though seeing as I only use it when soloing, I couldnt tell you how good the hate on it was.

Capped PDT + Pro5 + Tacos + Cocoon takes him about 50+ hits to break my Stoneskin, and when it's off he does between 0-5 with the odd 10 and 25-30 criticals. Furthermore with Slow2 he's slow enough that you can cast Stoneskin between his melee rounds.

I remember Kaeko's blog discussing blu/pld for tanking using sentinel + difussion + exuviation. Not sure if that actually does cap hate like claims though lol.
Not trolling or anything... But really, wouldn't it be better to put a DD in where a PLD normally is in nearly every situation these days?
