Getting into end game tanking

[Penish]

I think you hold aggro for 6.38 seconds while 372 people kill the mob. Hope this helps.

Oh ya, hitpoints are good.

Kunark content maybe, but velious most fights are a lot longer, and big hitters like aow and vymn are fun fights for a war [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Oh also, all content in velious can be tanked in kunark gear. Don't feel hard pressed to get an extra few HP's when all they need to do is bot another cleric in to smooth out the chain.

Well I see your banned but I'll reply anyway...a full velious raid geared tank is a billion times easier to heal then a kunark geared one (I play clr sometimes too, and you def see the difference in group geared vs full raid, it's really not even comparable).

And you don't always have 25 rogues / pets to burn things down (like rampage did when velious launched), so when disc drops, that ac/hp difference is huge /nod.

Very much this. Once you have been in a few AoW cleric chains, you see the difference between good geared warriors and bad ones. There are quite a few tense moments when a 6k+ HP tank gets down to 3% before the next CH goes off.

That and in the current meta, you tend to log in and kill things instantly. You don't always have an ideal CH chain there to always keep you topped off. The more buffer, the more likely you are to stay up while everyone else logs in.
