Hello everyone,
I am currently playing as a Blackguard, and was wondering what builds are better suited to tanking and what spell rotations I should use in different situations. Im currently level 14, and my stats are mostly toughness, strength and wounds.

Re: Blackguard Builds
What I'm currently using. 102% disrupt with Hold the Line! up. Toughness soft cap.
you will need RR40 with 4/5 Annihilator or Ruin tho.
Rotation:
Brutal Smash and Feeding on Weakness for the buffs. Hateful Strike for Toughness tactic to kick in.
Furious Howl against tanks to reduce their avoidance. Pretty useful against everyone tho.
Crush the Weak against dps to reduce their crit chance by about a half.
Horrific Wound and Pitiless strike against targets attacked by destro melees. Usually apply those on targets of the person you are guarding.
Also always apply Crippling Anger. Order always try to run away.

Re: Blackguard Builds
Can you explain to me why you didn't choose to slot into Soul Killer and your opinion on the tactic and it's usage, as well as your hate resource management and how you balance it with your abilities/tactics that scale on hate?megadeath wrote:What I'm currently using. 102% disrupt with Hold the Line! up.

Re: Blackguard Builds
With recent guard changes it's no longer your job as a tank to apply healing debuffs. Let dps you're guarding do it. Also absolutely useless in orvr.TheSockPuppet wrote:Can you explain to me why you didn't choose to slot into Soul Killer and your opinion on the tactic and it's usage
Just keep it as high as possible since your avoidance/kd/punt depend on it. I limit wasting my hate only on Furious Howl and Bolstering Anger.TheSockPuppet wrote: as well as your hate resource management and how you balance it with your abilities/tactics that scale on hate?
