Tank AV Tactic
Powers used: Personal Force Field, Dispersion Bubble, Combat Jumping (Leaping Pool), Acrobatics (Leaping Pool), Aid Self (Medicine Pool), Provoke (Presence Pool), Earth's Embrace (Stone Mastery)

NOTE: A healer is required for this tactic to work successfully.

This tactic allows the controller to tank an AV. The following steps are performed:

1) Activate Earth's Embrace. This will increase your Hit Points by about 50%.
2) Activate Dispersion Bubble, Acrobatics, and Combat Jumping
3) Get any available buffs from the healer.
4) Use Provoke and various attacks to hold AV aggro. The attacks should all have short animations, just in case you need to heal yourself.
5) As needed, raise PFF and apply Aid Self.

You'll also need your healer healing you as much as possible.

Using this tactic you can Tank the AV until Earth's Embrace expires. This tactic is useful when the Tank has been killed by the AV. You can fill in for the Tank until he is rezed.

The controller used to test this tactic had the Portal Jocky, Task Force Commander, and Freedom Phalanx Reserve Member Accolades. These, along with Earth's Embrace, gave the controller a Hit Point total near Brute levels. No IOs where used during this test. PFF was slotted with 3 +DEF and 1 +Recharge. Aid Self was slotted with 3 HEAL and 3 +Recharge.

This tactic was tested on Mother Mayhem set to invincible.

Bump. Is there a guide that incorporates IO's into the build?
