Best tank weapon in-game?

[nathanyc]

You know you could start another class too, i like have 20 level 30's and im working on my archer now, i think its worth it for multiple reasons...

I have 2 green version of the pick axe and they are pretty much just as good. Crit instead of h/s or dodge, but im currently soloing mega maze mash up over and over again trying to find it.

Atm i have a hybrid tanking / Damage build which i find extremely effective. I have found it unnecessary to have all the tanking skills. With my build i can seamlessly switch from my tanking weapons to my lvl 30 sword of darkness, and honestly with the new stun locks i can tank with both. I'm gonna post my warrior cause he is pretty much finished gear wise.. but i've been lazy. for the moment...

i hope your 20 level 30s is a typo haha..and u meant to say 2

yea you're right, you can do decent damage just with that 2hand and auto attack lol. with iron blood you have just about as much armor.. and taunt with the dodge.. just alternate the 2 skills. im gonna keep my warrior strictly for tanking unless im farming. i have a dpser already

Yeah haha, 20 level 30s. Hmm. haha

Nah, but honestly I'm good bro. I don't find the need in playing more than one char. Thanks for the suggestion though.

yea i meant 2 level 30s... having twenty is beyond no-lifeing a game.

I totally hear you Deathshock, first time ive ever played an mmorpg and wanted to have more than one class, but given the current lack of content i decided to go for it. One of my main reasons is to fully understand all the classes strengths and weaknesses for when pvp comes out. Gonna need all the edge i can get again max-ipad users.

Warrior is by far my fav though. 2h damage and defense is sick. I saw a 30 archer with the exact same gear as my warrior, and his stats were pretty much the same, but warrior skills are superior for melee.

I'm not really playing this game for the PvP to be honest, so I'm not as worried with that. And even with the new tweaks to the warrior, I can't really see it beating a class like the archers down too easy. I'm more looking forward to guild activies, quests, and higher more complex dungeons. And definitely better towns/npcs.

Well who is to say what will happen with classes by the time pvp comes around, but I hope things are relatively even.

PVP will be based on rock, paper, scissors.
Winner gets the kill. That's as fair as it gets!

A mage with a frost staff or archer with frost bow would defeat a warrior easily =p

Exactly haha.

[nathanyc]

that is unless they disable weapon procs in pvp but thing is we still have root and frost

and scream.
And repulse arrow.
And we can run and attack, and they cant.

=p

[Deathshock]

Something like 5v5 should be fine though.

[nathanyc]

as long as you get to beckon players warriors should be ok for pvp

You win a prize for digging up one of the oldest threads.

i do have a question about that actually...so kinda good he dug it up. i have a shock lance (of legend i believe). i have heard others mention a named shock lance...name eludes me at the moment...think it starts with a Z?
is their any particular flavor of shock lance that is better than the other? my legend one seems to have pretty respectable tanking stats on it.

i also have a kopesh and some sort of forked looking sword. they also both seem good stat wise, but i know lances are preferred for their armor breaking proc.

edit:
thanks BB. checked that list. the forked sword i have is Scarab Blade i think (cant remember the type).
i see alot of people tanking with the kopesh. is this simply because they dont have a shock lance or is there some reason to use that weapon?
i've read from other tanks that 1H swords are poor for tanking.

[BeardedBear]

Zuraz Shock Lance, there is also Conquerors. "Of Legend" seems to be the bottom of the list. You can find there stats here: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...-I-amp-Part-II

[giayuan]

hmmm, saw this thread, and was shocked that someone was still playing on the old version -_-
then i saw the date...
posting that legend lance comment is kinda pointless no?
the people who posted on the thread before probably rnt playing anymore
