Not knowing tanks work well with ench/clr is bonkers for an experienced player. You guys are nuts. Please stop

Of course they work. Charm, slow, CH, tank. Pretty common sense. It’s just there are much better combinations.

If I was looking to be the third player with that duo there is no way I’m bringing a melee. A mage isn’t a very strong third but you get another pet tank, DS, burst dps, and malosini (and mala at 60). Most enchanters are all about -60MR on their pet and an irresistible -35 for stuff they want to slow quick. Again…and that isn’t even a very strong third class.

I don't think anyone said this? Having a PC tanking for an ench rogue pet in non-trivial content is a solid setup.

The argument was is warrior the best third man and the answer is "it depends". Warrior has good niche perks that are not always necessary and could be traded for a class with more desirable perks depending on the situation and player preference.

Yeah but snaggles imparted his wisdom that if u run 2 ench and cleric is way better because although you will die more, you can just wipe and go make sandwiches to be efficient. Hard to argue that logic

This all hangs on what kind of sandwich it is.

Clear winner would include foul smelling herbs, since it will last longer after next patch.

You kill far more with 2 enchanters and shouldn't be dying much.

100%. Two Ench’s in close proximity to the cleric. It’s far faster kills and safer.

Only drawback is extra mana spent by the cleric but plenty of time to med when waiting for respawns.

PS: Sandwiches? A good BLTA is hard to beat outside a Cuban sandwich. Thanks to The Beef I want to go to Chicago.

Yeah I always liked having a mage around,surprisingly strong 3rd. Doesn't compare to a 2nd enc or necro,but it makes it really safe. Easy to hit -100mr with pet gear, charms last forever.
The enc in that video was terrible in the hole. You drop your pet and charm the named immediately. Rocksoul is the best,but stonesoul has like 10k hp. Bruiser

I bet snaggles makes a good sub. Rangers are like the second tier of chef after halfling.
