View Full Version : LR* Tank build advice

Hey everyone!

Since I never ran a tank I wanted to try and tr one of my toons into one.
The toon unfortunately has no racial PLs, 3x PL monk, 2x PL rogue and 1x PL ranger (so nothing juicy for a tank build I'm afraid), and only a few epic PLs (far from completionist).

My goal would be to build a tank capable to do its job on LR1 raids and LR6+ quests, ideally without farming raids beforehand because lately lfms are slow and I don't have a static group to run with.

So far I was considering:

Aasimar 15ftr 4arti 1wiz
Or
Aasimar 15ftr 4pal 1wiz

I read about the 15arti 4pal 1wiz too but it looked like it relied a lot on having a bunch of racial APs.

So, the big difference, as far as I understood it, would be getting extra ac with the Paladin's reinforced shield stacking with SD's or the extra HPs and mrr from the arti tree.

Do you have any advice on the matter?

Thanks!
