I think he doesn't tank differently from any other lvl 102 mgs(who is saying is a lvl 101 mgs). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As Arthur said, you're kinda asking for too much tanking. Relax, you tank normal. yesterday i just got a new boots pair (lvl 100 awesomely mixed) I'm lvl 104 right now and almost can tank well in Md1. let's see how it goes with the new boots.

Faffhog 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2011 i just remember on ept mage could tank good... Save making a new topic, I'm just going to bump this while my question is in reference to this. I played ePT several years back and since then I've only played on 1 other private server (for a few months at that). On ePT, a pretty common mage build was "Master Robe Mages". The basic premise behind this was: Get a perfect MGS Master Robe Get a perfect MGS Faith Wand Get a Wooden Shield Age the Robe/Wand as high as you can, HP+ Gem the shield (Devine Gem in ePT). Put any stats you didn't need for the Robe/Wand on Health. This would mean that while these mages were defensively weak (as mages are anyway), they would have excessive amounts of HP and could withstand a lot of damage. On ePT, this build worked very well, whereas on the other Private Server I played, it didn't. I'm curious to know how well this sort of build would work in rPT? Has anyone tried it/compared it with another "more traditional" build? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TripleR 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2011 What is really wrong: magicians being able to tank. Wait, I'm sorry. Mages are not supposed to tank? Then tell me what the hell they're supposed to do, because: - They can't kill in PvP. - They can't tank in PvP. - They were supposed to be the highest level characters in this game [because their AOE is great, therefore exping faster], but they're not, because here you can donate for levels/class change. - They were supposed to be the richest characters in this game [because they can easily solo SoD and gain large amounts of gold], but they're not, because here you can donate for gold, gear, everything. - Their AOE is as good as Atalanta's, except Atalantas can PvP and mages can't. So please, explain me what the fuck they're supposed to be because so far they're nothing but a dead class. You better come up with good arguments. Thank you.

Edgardo 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2011 So please, explain me what the fuck they're supposed to be because so far they're nothing but a dead class. They're supposed to be only shit, just because all those donkeys are happy if the game have only 2-3 classes, and others are made to be shitty vl|AoE slaves. not more, because all classes have some sort of AoE. whatta hell is wrong? i'd like to play a game in which you can choose somethimg different of being a shitty dumb with a melee weapon hittinh the monsters like all sorts of stupid playing. Magic seems coller, with effects, and also, magic is supposed to be a damn strong, in any story we see. but no! why to make options? we don't want to play a game to entertainment, to discover dungeons and be chellenged by bosses, use the ROLE PLAYING, and met cool ppl online. not at all! we just don't have anything to do else, then we get our dumb chars and go hit during ages or pay. whats the fun in it? come on! no strategy needed. then we go pvp and hit more and more, and fight and curse everyone, because we are crappy teenagers, without imagination i thought Rpt were different. now i kinda got pissed off with this shit.
