Re: Why is Guarding skill so hard to improve?

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.

Funny, I did actually tank for an exp chaining VTs as MNK when the NIN went afk, and I barely got any skill ups... currently 89, but as I said, when I was PLD, I went from way under cap to capped by the time I was 25 pushing 26. Went from Decurion's Shield to Turtle Shield and it started going up...
