Re: Serious question about agro management (for tanks)
So, if Tash is a great taunt, and procs are a great taunt...does that mean the Jman's Walking Stick is a decent weapon then?

(Yeah, the 9/25 one that procs Tash.)

Just wondering...

SK = taunt.

Nice 1st level necro spell called disease cloud, drives mobs nuts for some reason.

I do understand that it is a minute buff if that. Just seeing that if it could generate agro once the mob has been engaged, items like the cobalt vam's or staff of shielding or things of that nature could improve our taunting ability.

I find it really hard to gain agro over a shadow knight that likes to dot the mobs to hell, and that damn disease cloud is hellish on agro. I am just trying to find ways to keep the mob on me and not the mob.

That Wizard quest that gains you a instant cold/fire debuff on the mob would be ideal for stealing agro. Just right click the hell out of it to keep the mob on you. Just got me thinking, thanks for the responses.

SK can't pull aggro? What a crappy SK. I play one, I know how easy it is to get aggro- one Disease Cloud usually does the trick :P

Tanking is all about AC!
I was lvl 57 before i quit and my ac was about 1070 (which is actually too low). But the sk's main job is TAUNT!!! Disease Cloud best spell ever, its uber taunt on almost anymob (except in the PoF and I noticed it sucked againist the snake men in Luclin). Only problem with disease cloud is that it is a dot, so watch out if there are mezzers in the group on multiple pulls. But dont over taunt or you'll end up dead hehe (and let me tell you one sk can out taunt 5 lvl 60 warriors easy with the dots)

SK the best class ever, total self reliant class. What other class (beside necro) can invis, ivu, FD, dot, lifetap, levitate, snare, fear, deal out a 1k+ Harm touch and more!!

PS. TROLZZZ RULZZZZZ!

I invade your board la~

I honestly think you are on something if you think sks will be replacing warriors as MTs. Who cares who can tank the random yard trash crap, warriors will *always* tank the boss mobs. A very large portion of the sk community complained when disease counter aggro was lowered (making disease cloud ass for taunt after 3 years) so verant gives us direct +hate spells to make up for it. Warriors have complained about not being able to hold aggro... well now you have a 20% aggro increase availiable.
