scout tanking

[Oreo]

<div></div><div>I've seen a few comments that swashbucklers and rogues in general tank better then other scouts.   Why is this so?  Do they get better mitigation and/or avoidance?  Is the difference in the ability to debuff a mobs damage or keep it from attacking you?  Something else or just a fairy tale?</div><div> </div><div>As a Templar I've had scouts tank for groups before or just take over in a pinch or when someone screws up.  They all seem to take damage fairly equally imo.</div><p>Message Edited by Oreo81 on <span class="date_text">01-20-2006</span><span class="time_text">12:23 PM</span></p>

We get slightly more hp than other scouts do as we level up as rouges compared to other scouts, and we have a single target taunt, as well as some abilities that can increase our hate generation- the bravado line and the devious blade line (though the devious line will help whoever is tanking, assuming that the tank is the first thing hit by a mob after you hit the critter).<div></div>
