I16 - Making Tanking fun again
agreed...its one of the biggest thing im looking forward too in issue 16
Nice to be able to test stuff out I think and really come to know the game.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
With the new mission difficulty options, the ability to get all those spawns on single missions has made it fun for me to tank

When the feature was first opened up for testing, I got a scanner mish in PI with council and I let out a quiet squee when I got inside, my wife looked over and smiled, she knew that was tanker heaven.
Aye getting the large spawns will be great for my tank but I must admit I16 had me with the new animations for SS.
Indeed my brutes and tanks will love it! But my WS loves it most of all!
It will be good for some of my tankers. But the character that will get the most mileage out of the feature is likely to be my Spines/WP scrapper.

I can't believe I did not think of this until I read this thread. I was so busy coloring my alts and having my scrappers fight high level foes that forgot all about my Fire/Fire (l.44) and his addiction to huge spawns.
Foes +1, me as good as 8 heroes, versus Councils. For the first time I actually got to the agro cap in action. It was fun. It felt like I was PLing myself. Though I must admit I am grateful for the positional defense and Tough/Weave he has. Not sure how he'd fare against them with just SOs.
Real shame he still does not have Fireball.
I've gotten addicted to the +4/x8 difficulty setting on Test. Now to find fellow Tankers on Freedom who want to do the 3rd Respec and/or ITF at +4/x8.

Am I the only one who has found a renewed joy playing their tankers on test? With the new mission difficulty options, the ability to get all those spawns on single missions has made it fun for me to tank again. Of course, I never was one who asked others to pad a mission for me, now we don't have too. I think I'll be playing my tanks again, as they had really fallen out of favor with me recently. A pleasant and unexpected change to gaming I didn't expect from I16. Thanks to the developer who thought that one up. It's a winner.
