Tanking SK AA question

[ATLDawgy]

<DIV>I'm thinking about trying STR 4-8-5-8 and WIS 4-4-8-8 for tanking.  That will max my hate gain, in-combat health regen for the group, etc etc.  Anyone tried this?</DIV>

in combat health regen isn't very useful, especialy to rely on it while tanking, reacst reduction from end of str would be a better place for those 8 points

<P>I suggest fot a tank spec go up Stam line to final ability and int line for spell crits. the added dps from spell crits will add as much aggro as the str line and will crit your lifetaps which helps a little. you dont nessicarily need the final ability in stam line and can max hp and melee crits just fine but some prefer the 10 second damage absorb. its a matter of  style. also you can do stam and str if you expect to do more melee than spellcasting it will help especially if you can manage to get a solid axe like ascendant</P> <P> </P>

<P>I dont have the damage asorbtion, so I am just going by what has been said on the forms.  But according to many posters, the final line in stamina is still messed up where it doesnt computate your hps correctly.  This might of been fixed since I saw the post, but when it was messed up at that time.  Even if it was working a 10 second buff once every 15 mins seems a bit weak for 8 APs (just my opinion)</P> <P>Me personnally I went down the stamina line maxing hps and melee crit and of course Int for spell crits. </P>
