rcsnellink 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2011 Quite some years ago I very often duo'd with a mech that was 100% tank. Back then we hunted in sanct2, he tanked and I killed and we shared all drops. Like back then, there weren't many pure mechs around, for good reason. Why tank if your golem does it for you? Could the tank mech have it's revival now with the new Ice map? I've heard that it's hard to solo there and best to go with a party. Can you guys confirm this? Would it make sense to make a tank mech now, if you have an active clan? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not against bosses, they hitkill pets, so you need to tank. But difference from tanker to power mech is not that much, and I wouldn't go for bosses at early levels. Once you're higher you can run hybrid and switch all time. Ah, and you tank enough with base health. Don't mind going pure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If solo, just make full use of the natural obstacle and highland to make sure all damage goes to ur pets not urself. As for pure tanking mech, why not w8 until thrine shield comes out.
