But i basically got dropped in the main tanking slot even tho i was accepted for my drg and drg abilities. We have a few fights i have never tanked or even been a back up on, so i would like your personal exp and advice to give me a heads up on the fights from a ninja tank eyes ( have done these as drg many times 50+ easy). Have Seiyru and Suzaku this weekend and maybe byakko. Thanks in advance for your time. /salute

Pardon my ignorance, but what does "t2t" stand for? "Toe-to-toe"? "Twoot"?

Hi Sev, was just wondering how did the experience go. I'll eventually have to tank these as well, and I'd like to know what to expect.

Re: Gods
lol, sorry, I've been busy, haven't had too much time to poke around here. I'm not to worried about you giving advice.................I think =X

Um...actually...due to a lack of available haste items for myself...I've gotten around to building a bit of a defense set...which primarily doubles as my enmity set on top of that...though I definitely need upgrades in both sections, but for now it works.

weapon: Earth Staff
head: arhat's jinpachi (looking to upgrade, no money though)
neck: evasion torque
hands: arhat's/yasha tekko
earrings: eris/elusive (planning to buy another eris)
body: arhat's (aiming for upgrade here)
rings: mermaid/jelly ring
back: haven't decided, looking to pick a new piece probably more enmity
waist: warwolf
legs: arhat's
feet: arhat's (looking for yasha)
Along with pro5, defender, and tav taco, I get around 560defense with 35% dmg reduction.
I purposely ran into faust while we were fighting it, and from typhoon I took 90dmg around. My only problem is I need more enmity to hold hate, I haven't tried tanking him yet.....some of my LS members are skeptical of it working...but I'm absolutely positive I can make it work.

Re: Gods
Stack haste until you hit the cap.

Sub DRK.

Cast Stun > Bind > 3-4 Absorbs for hate.

If you need more hate, use Souleater.

Result: Elite NIN Tank. Your LS might never let you come as DRG ever again.



I know I'm an a**hole - Reminding me is redundant.

Re: Gods
Basically what i used to use. but havent God tank in awhile. I call this my Pld macro. High Vit, Nice Def an Hp not counting buffs from spells or food. Last time i tanked in this set up lady luck was on my side. Everytime shadows was down an i was trying to cast it back up i managed a parry. I took a picture somewhere of it being a total of 10 times..

Main: HQ Earth Staff
Sub: -
Ranged: Ungar Boomerang
Ammo: -
Head: Genbu's Kabuto
Neck: Evasion Torque (i use another torque that i cant remember as well)
Ear1: Cassie Earring
Ear2: Eris earring
Body: Kirin's Osode
Hands: Seiryu's Kote
Ring1: Mermaid Ring
Ring2: Bomb Queen Ring
Back: Nomad Mantle +1
Waist: Warwolf Belt
Legs: Koga/Byakko's Haidate
Feet: Fuma-Sune Ate
Food wise i usually bounce around. Sometimes i go with DD food. Sometimes go with tank food, Other times i went with Eminity. Side note i used DD ninja gear to pull off a Ws. Switched to this set up for tanking purposes. An if i had to claim hate back from a heavy nuke or after a death i had +30 emiity to fall back on.




Nin75, Bst75. Drk61, War61, Rdm40, All other jobs are 37. All 3 starting city missions completed. All Zilart missions completed. All CoP missions completed. TouA completed.
