'Secondary Tank'

StormCinder · 04-10-2008, 03:43 PM

Just curious...I've been hopping into some groups lately as a secondary tank. Just curious if/how this position is played by others. Not sure if I'm just not used to it, or if I'm doing something wrong, but it almost seems more (technically) challenging than MT.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I've found that a "secondary tank" role works pretty well with us depending on the zone. We do decent group damage so we usually end up taking the aggro that would of been lost to a caster with less defense skills / hp / self healing. The only thing I hate is that unless you have a guardian tank that has a macro for Reinforcement... Death March causes more chaos than good. Maybe work out a strategy were you tank on Multiples when Death March is up or something.
