Hey guys,
Started this game not too long ago, say... less than a week?
Anyways, I've been playing a bear tank (level 32 as of today)
and I have some questions to clarify.
1) Str over Dex
I realised that Str is pretty much the "primary stat" of a tank.
Not only does it increases dmg, it also boosts health.
Dex on the other hand, adds dodge and hit, which is crucial to tanking as well.
But my question is, how do i prioritize one over the other?
How do I know how much Str/Dex to add?
Would having more health be easier for the healer to heal you?
Been hearing stuff like "get enough Str to equip my gear and put the rest to Dex".
What is the rationale behind that is you guys don't mind explaining.
2) Tanking technique
Currently using the "Beckon-against-wall-then-move-forward-and-stomp" technique.
I realised that it is very effective if i can get them all into a corner.
However, places like swamps have very little walls to execute this move.
Any other tanking techniques that you guys know of?
Btw, correct me if I got my facts wrong and please advice accordingly.
Recommendations on anything (i.e tanking gear/weaps, leveling areas or tank style)
is greatly appreciated.
