Order, which tank?

[diedrake]

I feel like changing over to order side for awhile. Anyhoo, feeling like you guys need more tanks. My question is which snb tank is the most needed right now?

As a pure tanky tank the Knight is regarded as one of, if not the, best.

KotBS for a guranteed spot in every group and format, besides solo roam - not really gear dependent, easy to play.
SM for a spot in more min-max'd compositions (in both, organized large and small scale); afaik, extremely gear-dependent and alot more challenging to (properly) play than KotBS.
IB mainly for small scale (and all-around, especially melee-centric compositions); duos (engi, slayer, x,...), yadayada, reasonable solo roam class - less gear-dependent, but more challenging to (properly) play than SM.


Personal bias: IB masterclass, dwarf masterrace - best babysitting toolkit ingame, imo.

TLDR: IB and SM are complementary classes in terms of group settings, KotBS is more or less a standalone.

IB for the highest skill ceiling, but probably best tank when played well. Knight for all around goodness. SM snb meh. Hard to see much use except for spreading stat steals and activating no cooldown ID on Slayers.

The answer is always KOTBS.

Kotbs is the best class in this game.
