I just beat it as a tank, no vigor, no healer. Literally 3 sorcs and a tank. Got a sharpened Masters Ice staff, and my buddy gave me his charged Masters Flame staff. I think I may have come up with the literal perfect tank build for Vdsa.

brandishsteel

You could also post your build and technique. Or pretty much anything other than: "I did this..."

Imagine if Deltia or Sypher or any of those other guys posted: "I fought 13 guys..." and said nothing else.

Actually no it wasn't. It was done on cp160. The only plot twist is you being facetious.

I was literally seeing if anyone cared. I will post a video of final fight from my perspective. I'm still working out the kinks for my tank because I mainly run trials with it. The build I ran on vdsa was tailored for vdsa only.

My score sucked because we wiped a few times and this was a learning run. But we as a group have decided to use the builds we have to farm it now that we have solid strategy for each stage.

A group with DPS that are highly survivable can do without healers in many cases. Add in a Templar tank that can toss an emergency heal then you have a tank healer and one that should not use Vigor.

Except my tank is a dk. You will see how I did it when I post the video.

You know that even a healer can tank the last boss of VDSA right? Even has to if you want to do a burn kill.

Pretty sure VDSA is the only place where a templar in the tanking role is better than a DK because there is LOTS of room to deal damage while tanking in VDSA. There is really nothing in there that hits really hard.

Except most of the enemies (archers, shadow casters, poison circles, vampire boss, mage boss, flame summoners, ice mechanic, etc)

And no, we did a burn kill without a healer.

I don't think anyone was initially trying to be mean... it just seemed like the OP started a statement without giving any context, build info, or anything pertinent. If I walked over to you, tapped you on the shoulder, and said: "I have a purple heart" and then walked away... you'd feel like there was supposed to be some sort of background info that should've come along with that.

People shun what the don't understand. Like I said before, I will get a video up. I will be blocking my skill bar though, because my builds are none of the haters business.

Why even post the video then? These forums are meant to *hopefully* be helpful to other people. If you're not sharing tactics, skills, builds, ideas, or anything of that nature...

...then you're just posting a video to say "Look at what I've done. Please praise me." It's about as helpful as someone saying "L2P, bruh."

You had my genuine interest earlier- but if you're just going to post a video to aggravate the "haters"- then this is nothing more than Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

I would say "thank you for serving" I dont need to know what branch of the military that person is in. I dont need to know the details of the situation that earned him or her the medal. None of that changes the fact. Just like here. I dont need to know his build. He just wanted to tell someone of his accomplishments. So gg op. Others just like to tear everything down.

"Hey guys I have found the literal perfect build for vDSA! Too bad you won't know what it is because I am going to block out my skill bar."

Pretty selfish of you OP. There are a people who are interested in your build and you won't even show them because of "haters."

Call me old school, but i prefer a magicka DK for tanking there, he doesnt need to do dmg at all, just chain, taunt, talon and interrupt so dps can just spin to win to the victory xD.

You claim to have the perfect tank build bro. Not me. Besides ask yourself why so many people are trolling you. Your OP comes across as a troll post with 0 evidence. You want people to appreciate you and care about your build come post a video or at least screenies.

Blocking out ur skill bar is useless. Forums have people who've played this game Long enough to tell what it is ur using by just looking at the gameplay. So save yourself the needless effort.

I have a nudist tank in one of my guilds that will frequently strip in dungeons. Be careful what you wish for
