Tanker Tuesday Tour Tomorrow!!! If you don't have a Tank here on Victory now is the time to roll one! If you have one already bring them to King's Row by IP Gate (Line up on the wall, please) at 6pm PT, 9pm ET and get ready to join the scrum of Tanks bashing justice into the crooks of Paragon City! See ya' all there!!

I'm surprised to hear that you're Invuln has the stacking issue as well. Do the Stone Tanks get KB'd as well, or does Rooted effectively cancel all KB?

I'll have to take Faust to the next raid. He's 48 now, so it will be interesting to see if there's any change in the amount of KB he's getting.

I don't know what to tell you, but my Dark/Ice has KB protection of 12 also and can get KB's and chain KB'd during a Hami Raid. It has happened several times.

I raided with my level 46 Elect/Fire and he was chain KB'd as well several times. My impression (unless I've just got the horrible misfortune to time a bug correctly, which I doubt because it happens on my Dark as well) is that the KB -10,000% on the other armors makes the difference. I haven't played Ice, Stone, or Invuln during a raid yet, but plan on leveling my Invuln. I'll try him out and report back.

If you raid on Justice, you may have seen Faust 1394 bouncing around as the Taunt Team engages the mitos before the rest of the raiders enter the goo. Yes, I'm taking aggro from several types of Mitos at that point and have two yellows blasting me until the next Taunter gets into place. So, there could be a stacking issue.

W00T!! I'll be there (barring any server unpleasantness at work...) :P

Thank you all for the great turn out for TTJ! We were able to run at least 4 teams and at times had 5 up and running. Our Task Force team posted an approx 2 hour Sister Psyche, and we were able to field a higher level team and lower team with up to two mixed teams running.

I wanted to send a personal thanks to all the players who accepted the mantle of team leader. It was a big help!

I also wanted to thank the JU mods for posting TTJ in the MoTD. I think it really helped the turn out.

The next TTJ will run on January the 5th, 2010.

Don't forget to join us next week on the Tanker Tuesday Tour!

See ya' all then!

TTJ tomorrow, same Tank time, same Tank place! See you all there!

TTJ tomorrow!!

I'm not a Stone Armor expert, the build looks solid (Nice Defense numbers), but Accuracy looks low. I usually shoot for around 40% Accuracy with all my Tanks. I can slack off a little if they have several powers slotted with Crushing Impact (or other +Accuracy sets) or if it's an Invul running Invincibility. If you Tank mobs higher than you, which is very common for a Stone Tank, you'll be at a bit of a disadvantage as Gauntlet won't be working to it's fullest effect.

TTJ in four days!! If you don't have a Tank now's the time to roll one up, if you have one, come join us on the 8th! We meet at 6pm PT/9pm ET in King's Row by IP Gate (please line up on the wall as it makes team selection easier).

See ya' in a few days!

Don't forget your Santa hats!

Also, I have a Tank that needs any of the respec trials, anyone up for that? Or are there any other TF/Trial requests?

Cool, we'd love to have you join in the fun!

Next TT is on Justice, December 8th, 6pm PT/8pm ET. We'll meet at IP Gate in King's Row, please line up on the wall (it makes team organization easier). Don't forget your Santa hats!

See ya' there!

Thank you for the response. I have little concern that my Tank will loose aggro as I've take the Presence Pool as well as Taunt (I'm after Intimidate and Invoke Panic for concept reasons). Resulting in two fully slotted Taunts using Mocking Beratement . So, losing aggo is not my concern. Bouncing on my backside across the Hive is. From the sounds of it I should be covered. I'll post my experience here after I've tried it out. Should be in about a week or so, depending on how much I get to play and the raid schedule. Thank you all for your feedback.

I think I still have an open spot on Triumph....I'll try to get in on this.

Cool, always good to have another Tank join the fun! We'll see you there!

Thanks for the input, I guess I should be a little more specific about my question.

I currently use a DA/Ice tank to raid with. He has Mag 12 KB resist from IOs and still can be KB’d by Mitos when attacks are stacked. I currently have a level 44 Electric/Fire Tank which I would like to use for Hami Raiding. However, I have experienced knock back by Diabolique and, from what I can tell, KB stacking by other enemies such as Nemesis and Malta. When I checked with Mids’ I noticed that Electric Armor lacks the KB -10,000% that Stone, Invuln and Ice enjoy. Although it does show a KB Mag -15.6 (5.6 more than the others), my concern is that KB stacking from either Mitos or Hami could set the tank up for chronic KB which is what happened while fighting Diabolique and would be bad for an aggro team Tank or lead Tank. I was hoping someone who had already tried Hami would be able to tell me how it went and if they experienced the KB what they had done to compensate.

Hi all,

Any used an Electric/* Tank on the Taunt team or as the main Taunt Tank for a Hami raid? If so, how did it work?

cp2_4eva, I agree with Rangle, start a new tank, unless you really want to transfer the other one.

Grey Pilgrim, bummer about December TTs, but we look forward to seeing you in January.

Sounds good, of course you know the Winter Event Preview is running.

Have fun!

Nine days 'til TTJ!! If you haven't got a Tank roll one up and join the fun! If you've got a Tank, perhaps a lowbie that you need some levels on and build advice, bring it along! All power sets and levels are welcome, as long as you're a Tank!!

See you all there!

King's Row, by IP Gate on the wall, Tuesday Dec 8th, 6pm PT/9pm ET!

W00T! Almost December, and that means 5 Tuesday's to Tank!! Starting tomorrow with TT on Champion!!

See you all there!!

The TT reload last night was great fun. Thank you all for joining in the Tankiness.

Thanks for spreading the word for us PapaSlade. We'll start at 6pm PT/9pm ET, in King's Row at IP Gate. I'll be running Shield Strike and will try to get on about 30min before to do the zone broadcasts. If anyone there has a full compliment of 'porters in their SG and would be willing to do the zone broadcasts it would be faster than me bouncing from zone to zone.

Okay it's on! We'll reload to Triumph tonight. What's the best server wide channel to broadcast this event on?

We're going for a reload to Triumph tonight. Same Tank time, same Tank place! All power sets and levels are welcome!

Hope to see you all there!
