It is still one of the strongest tanks. At least i didn't find that sustain became super weak.
Many mobs=fast stamina drain, but as i show SA give more stamina than enemies can take even without reduce block glyphs. Same rule works for solo-target: SA restore more than enemy can drain.ThatNeonZebraAgain wrote: »It is still one of the strongest tanks. At least i didn't find that sustain became super weak.
That video is misleading though. Of course resources won't be a problem when you can use SA to proc it off so many mobs. Where NB tanks will have a harder time is during prolonged boss fights where they cannot drop block to light attack (1-shot mechanics, latency, knockdown, poorly telegraphed attacks, etc), or there aren't adds or the adds are spread out.

No, it still restores a similar amount than before, they even incresed the amout you get from light attacks a bit. The only nerf is that it doesn't proc on aoe dots like twisting path anymore. Which will have an impact on trash pulls, but shouldn't be too bad on boss fights.chongguang wrote: »lolo_01b16_ESO wrote: »Nbs will still be second best tanks in my opinion.

Is it real for SA returning just 5 stamina as average in PTS right now ?
