Lancer or Brawler for tank?

  • To be honest unless you are running score runs or like with a super good party in hard modes I would recommend priest instead. Why? Because pries will allow you to heal carry bad parties in dungeons like LKNM. I play both healers and there’s nothing worse than a bad party when you’re a mystic. Priest has more healing skills and defensive options like the Kaias shield. Healing immersion is op as hell in bad parties too. I don’t even que for SSNM on a mystic at all as god knows people cannot dodge.
  • I'll give Priest a go, from what I had played of it, it was feeling a bit more enjoyable than Mystic to me. For now I'm trying out Reaper (p.s. is it just me or does anyone else get an odd sense of satisfaction playing a devilishly cute version of Kratos with his chain swords) so I can get to a point to farm Fashion coupons so I can keep my sexy Castanic male priest in his leather and chains with exposed chest outfit lol. Though, so far, my one nit pick about Reaper is they don't give you an option for the free costume outfit. Just feels weird that I have my character perfectly designed to go with the black and red dress and currently she's running around in a pink outfit (still adorably cute, but it clashes so badly).

    Anywho, getting off track, yes, I'll definitely be going with priest once my friend starts wanting to play so that way we can level together and hopefully I can get a 3rd friend to join us as a tank since they have a touch of tanking experience from FF14.

    P.S. On a side note, Reaper is the only gender locked class I can accept playing as. I suppose it's because being an Elin and having dress like outfits instead of the "t-shirt and panties" outfits they normally wear and the skimpy outfits that the other female races wear is much more tolerable to me, that and being a "cute Kratos" makes things oddly fun since I'm always a sucker for ironic type characters (such as a demon like humanoid healer, a cute and cuddly death dealer of darkness, a pink puffball that eats everyone with no regard for life, etc. lol).

    P.P.S Sorry one more thing, anyone else think it's odd to require to be level 40 to make a level 50 character? What I mean is that in WoW, you have to have a level 55 character in order to make a Death Knight that starts at level 55 and in this game, making a Reaper as soon as possible means you skip 10 levels for free, which would make getting the Level 50 achievement easy since you can skip 10 levels.
  • Holding aggro is the only thing brawler sucks at compared to lancer specially against high hitters like the Archer and zerker lancer is a safer bet imo
  • Whell. A good brawler can easly hold any boss

    not true 100% of the time. We have a really good brawler in our guild and unless he uses a threatening crystal some of our god rolled zerks and sorcs can tear aggro from them consistently. I kinda feel bad for him because we can't run with him unless we slow our dps by about 10%. He is a god rolled 424 brawler with a mix of crit power and aggro (perfect rolled to tank as brawler basically) and cant hold against the highest DPS in our guild 100% of the time (and no I am not counting times where he tries to pull boss to different area but we keep attacking because that is just unfair)
