I haven't seen any threads on this topic recently, however I have noticed that what is used varies from each tank that I speak with. Does anyone here have an opinion on what is the best raid tanking personal trophy/tribute combinations? What do you run?
What I use. Personal Trophies Essence of Talendor: 150 HPs, 45 AC Essence of the Fallen: 150 HP, 45 AC, 60 svP/svD, 20 svCorr Replica of the Qeynos Claymore: 500 HP/Mana/End, 100 AC, 5 all Heroics, 20 SD/HA Trophy of the Landing: 45 AC, 20 HSTA Trophy of the Seafarer: 400 HP/Mana/End, 75 AC, 5 all Heroics, 10 SD/HA Personal Tribute Bulwark of Honor: (Not sure exact AC amount) Dance of the Hero: 20 HAGI Hero's Deftness: 20 HDEX Fury of Combat: Flurry increase Second Chance
Trophy Essence of Talendor Essence of the Fallen Replica of the Qeynos Claymore Trophy of the Landing Trophy of the Breeding Grounds wich will probably be replaced by the Trophy of the Seafearer or possible Trophy of Sleep once it is fixed Trophy of Sleep Personal Bulwark of Honor 1&2 Strenght of Body 2 Dance of the Hero or Strenght of Body 1 or Fury of Combat depending where my heroic are at unbuff/buffed Hero's Deftness or Strenght of Body 1,Body of the Hero or Fury of Combat depending where my heroic are at unbuff/buffed and how I feel that day lol Id like to know if any bard use Concerto and any of the one that increase the efficiency of song? I Use concerto and Chorus sometime Horns when I PL with DS on my bard with harmonize but then often dont even bother switching unless i'm thinking spending more then 6 hrs with it. I know the DS get increased but not sure how well it effect songs like Aria etc
Used to have Second chance but I found it creating more issues at raid then anything else... Once it triger then healer keep healing you those not healing you try to heal you seeign you low hp leaving others tank tanking trash or what not unhealed... named switch to second on agro to him along with the other 2-3 next behind on agro is reason why i dont use it anymore. I rather Die with everyone knowing wtf is going on to properly pick up things as they should be. Sometime Div arb will be used quick enough some time not I just let the flow of things run its course with no confusion.
The only time song mod tribute / Harmonize will help is if you have rk 3 songs, but only group gear ( ___ Resonance 26). In every other case, bards cap their song mods with AAs and gear.
Aye. If you are a tank, take your death and let the next take over. The odd time or two second chance fires is not worth the confusion (you aren't dead, other tank isn't taking over - but it's running lose, healers are not sure who to heal, but can't heal you). As a dps I can see second chance being useful, but as a tank it causes more harm than good.
I used to think this, however.. now that I learned how to properly utilize this .. Not only do I personally use it, But It in fact helps more then I could ever have imagined. . -Whulf.
