[Infiltraitor]

Finally completed my PDK Tank gearset. It has every tank stat except Incorporeal and Quality Intimidate. Pure absolute turtle tanking.

I've yet to see a rare Bravery Throughout filigree drop in game even after it was stated to be "fixed". Do you actually have one of these or are just theory crafting?

Intim is 144. My dodge is 8%.

I have never had a rare bravery drop on me either. I got mine from the astral shard exchange.

These are my stats live. Although I've picked up some past lives since then and gotten a fatter build. Mostly gave up on any semblance of DPS.

As someone who has ran with this build on Argo in R10 , its very impressive and was the inspiration for my baby tank based on his #'s

Nice build

Thanks for the vote of confidence. After some experimenting, I've found that holding threat by hitting things isn't viable. I either need to swap in a couple more legendary greensteel or go caster like Strimtom's poison build.

I'm caught between the current meta of 6k HP pug tank vs the 8k HP guild tank.

For low R raids, you must hold aggro by doing damage. Intim isn't enough.

For high R raids, you must have 8k HP to survive lag spikes. You must shield block to survive elemental damage.

I think I can do a hybrid build that uses poison damage for Low R raiding and have 7k HP for high R raiding, but it's going to be iffy.
