| Ok I must regress, I don't think every guild should be able to tank
top eq, I was generalizing in my head a bit too much.
Following White's ideas on the complexity of tuning, smart players
make a difference. Here is my go:
10tp: Smart warrior has to tank. Top tank set, huge body, nice
wishes, big bad bruiser. Big party, everyone knows what they are
doing. Elite.
7tp: Most big warriors can tank. Skill/finesse do not matter for
them, a good healer and abj in the party will make up for this. This
is where alternate tank guilds, played by smart players with good
eq, and backed up by good parties, should be able to tank some. Not
everything, but enough mobs should be doable so that people can put
a decent party together, without a "tank" around. I'm guessing this
would be lurker/ma/woodsy
save
5tp: Most big lurker/ma/woodsy types can tank almost everything
with a good support crew. DL's and necro's can think about tanking a
few select mobs, if they are smart and well supported.
3tp: Necro/DL can tank most, even solo/duo select mobs if they are
very good. Every big person in physical guild can tank this with a
good party.
This way big high powered players can login and do small 2-3tp stuff
with a 4-5 man crew, with whoever is logged on. Big "solo guilds"
like necro/dl can get maybe 3-5 and do the same.
If they are a bit more organized and have more people/time, you can
do every 5tps with a larger party and an eq tank, most with
alternate tank. Only a few with necro/dl.
save
The big planned out parties with outside healers, multiple blasters,
witch, abj, and an eq tank/super l33t alternate tank playing their
butt off can do 7tp. Alternate tank cant do everything, but some. Eq
tank and your pretty much set for anyone.
That saves the once in a great while, XX player unretired and is
running eq, everyone has top sets/wishes out the ying yang, 10man
parties for big super elite eq. Of course only eq tanks decked out
to the max are at the helm.
(I know it all seems kind of repetitive but thats I'm just making examples)
My flaws: There may be more guilds out there to be thrown in here, I
wouldn't know. Is DL supposed to be stronger/weaker? I don't know
that either. |
