Best Tank for solo RvR with DPS Shield Spec?

Post#1 » Sat Dec 21, 2024 7:42 am

Hi all,

Which tank would you recommend for solo roaming in RvR with a DPS shield spec and some HP regen? Looking for something solid for 1vX and survivability.

And be able to handle all the rdps/healers out there...

Lol, SnB IB is like the worst tank for solo roaming, it has no reliable self heals and laughable damage. You can be somewhat tanky but won't be able to kill anything.

Oathstone does damage on block, so just hit the back or kite during oathstone. Easy.

RoR.builders - Ironbreaker Something like this and Good luck with getting away After Snare nerfs : D

Quick Escape from Renown + Trivial Blows + 80hp4/- 10% Crit dmg potion =65% Reduction of Crititcal dmg taken. SM and Espesially BG are too good as 2h imo to ever go shield in Solo play. BG is the only tank that dont have to use tactic slot to have Super Punt, just use 2h and CD is automatik halved : D

Soft capped toughness in every build, and now even the cooldown reduction skill is given to this monstrousity of a class.... https://builder.returnofreckoning.com/r ... ;0;0;4;0;4
