However Monk's don't tank. It will come over time, or you'll have to get a PL. It's just how the game is made.. not much else to do about it, even though it does suck. But then again.. My Guarding skill is at 180 and it's worth it. |
Utes doesn't affect guard, parry or shield skill ups. An I have tanked my far share of ground hnm's, gods, pop item mobs, exp mobs, merit mobs, Dyn mobs. An my parry is nowhere close to being capped.
