Thoughts on mDPS assist Tanks?
Posted: Thu Aug 22, 2019 12:56 pm
Hey everyone!
So, I am looking for some advice and thoughts in concerns to a mDPS assist tank on destroy side.
First off, I should say that I play SCs most of the time with some oRvR thrown in.
A little background. I played WAR Live a lot and loved it, so dove right in when I found RoR. Started up my BO tank to play with friends but found myself playing a lot on my own, so made myself a Choppa. It was a lot of fun until I hit T4 and found myself being less than a speed bump. I am 37/37 on him now and a bit unhappy. I know gear and RR will likely help this but am looking at other options.
What I want is a melee character that can get into the thick of it and do well, either leading or assisting the melee train. I was looking at tanks since they have the survivability I am looking for and can really assist a mDPS with guard and utility.
I would love to go 2H for the looks and extra DPS assist, but that isn't set in stone.
So I am looking for some thoughts on what people think the best class/build would be to fit this role?
Thank you all in advance for your thoughts.
