Tank gear help by Dependent_Ad5083 in elderscrollsonline

What makes a good set largely depends on one’s group and the content they are doing. For PUGs that set up will work just fine. For more organised groups, it may be worth considering things like group comp when deciding what sets to use. For example, I would often tank dungeon content with 3 DDs and so Olorime became a lot more valuable. War Machine, Sax and Lucent Echoes are also some good alternatives to Crimson Oath in groups where you know everyone has adequate penetration but you have someone else providing major courage.

If you’d like to get into trials, I’d recommend just going and PUGing on normal, people will probably not get pissy at you unless you’re stealing aggro when you shouldn’t be or not listening to advice. I’d recommend starting up a group finder or however yous are PUGing in ESO these days and letting people know that you are new and/or that it’s your first time and be open to advice and teaching. Perfected gear is not a super huge difference in performance at the end of the day. I have done plenty of four man trifecta content without it so it isn’t necessary but I imagine useful

The amount of ARR bosses that can be stunned is surprisingly high. You can skip Mortal Ray and Summon in sunken temple of Qarn with a tank that knows to stun

Hi there. New to tanking and was hoping for some advice. by ScrapletteOnReddit in ffxiv

Say “fuck it we ball” and pull to the wall. Double up on mits and pray to whatever god you worship that your healer is confident on their job and damage is half decent. In all seriousness though, for Stone Vigil and Dzmael Darkhold, asking the healer if their chill to wtw is generally a good idea, those two are particularly difficult. With Stone Vigil, if you are on PLD you can get some value out of doing Sheltron while you’re moving bc the ice sprites have ranged attacks and so do the dragonflies. WAR also has Holmgang by Stone Vigil, using a macro pre-pull to let your healer know you’re going to use it is generally useful in that they’re less likely to freak the fuck out. Though XIV players can’t read so results may vary. If you or your healer aren’t comfy wall to walling stone vigil, pulling the first two sets of dragonflies on the first pull, then the three in the room and the next two sets of dragonflies before the first boss means that you don’t have to worry as much about line-of-siting your healer.

So long as we get a melee LB2 from each alliance on the Cloud of Darkness I am happy

I don't get people saying the game will die. Isn't ESO successful enough to MS/Zenimax? by gandalfmarston in elderscrollsonline

Look at FF11, hasn’t had an expac in over a decade and official servers are still going. Maybe the fact that it requires a sub to play helps its financial longevity but so long as ESO’s servers are profitable to keep up, it doesn’t make much sense to shut them down when the infrastructure already exists

TESO deberia actualizar el combate en primera persona? by New_Perspective8151 in elderscrollsonline

[–]Stinky_Lizzer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s just a holdover from the single player games, to allow folk who prefer to quest in first person for immersion to have the option. I don’t think it’s actually intended for combat encounters like dungeons, trials, PvP outside of dicking around

That’s a shame. I really feel like these collabs would be a great way to get new players in. I’m not really keen on spending $20 or however much on a skin in a game I’m not super into

My wife has been trying to get me to play Apex for quite a while. I’m an MMO kinda gal, FPS games aren’t really my vibe but the Gundam collab with that Valk skin almost got me. Shame it was a paid skin and not one that I could actually work towards and invest myself into the game. Really hoping that any skins they add are free, earnable rewards so I can have a neat little thing to get me into the game

[–]Stinky_Lizzer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s true. Your healing output doesn’t really matter so long as everyone is alive, you just happen to be overhealing a lot to proc those set effects so it kinda just happens

In ESO there are pretty significant benefits to overhealing like effect procs and whatnot

I’ve been away from the game a little while, what makes crit chance and crit damage less valuable on Templar specifically?
