✭✭✭✭I would love to play a warden, I just cannot stand the animations of some of the staple abilities.
I don't mind the ice and flowers, but the cliff racer thing, the shalks, and the netch I hate, I don't like those animals in game, I don't care for morrowind or vvardenfell really, don't like the dark elves (expansion saw to that, there almost all ***)
while all other classes have very generic magic abilities and color schemes, warden is very specific.
it should have been a generic magical bird shaped spell, shalks could be replaced with vines, netch could have been a glowing magical orb, etc.ESO player since beta.

Skullstachio✭✭✭✭✭With the fact that you had no healer to keep you & your teammates alive (you know, just you & two DPS's) you probably would have been able to clean up the adds & the boss faster than your video, & the fact you had no soul gems to resurrect your teammates means that you just labeled yourself as a "Selfish" player. I know because I use a Dragonknight tank for my main.Edited by Skullstachio on October 13, 2017 1:18AMXbox LIVE: Skullstachio

Tips for how you can be an ESO Community Hero (Written and last edited by ZOS_GinaBruno at precisely 8:56PM, March 30th 2014.)Below are a few recommendations and tips to help you become one of the very best community members — a veritable hero — on The Elder Scrolls Online official community forums. These recommendations and tips also reflect the ESO core community philosophies.- Agree to Disagree: We have a very diverse community of individuals and groups who have a variety of interests, opinions, and backgrounds. Just like in every-day life, you will not agree with all the opinions you encounter here, and that’s okay. It’s perfectly acceptable to disagree, but please do not put other people down for their opinions, ideas, or suggestions. In most discussions, there is no right or wrong, just different angles, opinions, and interests.
- Be Civil and Respectful: Being civil and respectful goes a long way, especially when involved in a heated debate. It is possible to be civil and respectful, even when you strongly disagree with someone. Please remember that everyone on these forums is a real person, like you, who is also here because they love The Elder Scrolls Online and want to talk about it.
- Enjoy Yourself: Have fun, start interesting discussions, and participate in the community activities and discussions that excite you! You, our fans, set the tone and culture of this community. We’re here to listen, help, and foster that growing culture. We want you do enjoy being here as much as we enjoy having you!
- Ignore Baiting: Sometimes, another community member will attempt to bait you into a response. Usually, this is to elicit some sort of negative or emotional reaction. Please try your best to recognize when this is happening, and ignore it. You may also report it to the ESO Team if the post or thread is violating our Code of Conduct.
- Post in the Appropriate Area: Please do your best to post threads in the correct area of the forums. We will move any threads that are posted in the incorrect area, and leave an expiring redirect attached to them. We understand that everyone wants their thread to be seen and gets replies — posting them in the proper section is the best way to make sure that happens.
- Report Violations: If you notice that another community member is violating our Code of Conduct, please report the post and leave it at that. Do not reply, try to correct their behavior yourself, or tell them that you reported them. We understand that our community members are generally just trying to be helpful when they do these things, but they only serve to exacerbate the issue more often than not.
- Share Constructive Criticism: We want to hear your thoughts and feedback on The Elder Scrolls Online, negative and positive alike. Please consider how you are posting criticism. If you want to share suggestions or constructive criticism about The Elder Scrolls Online, please tell us about it. It is possible to be negative, respectful, and constructive at the same time. When submitting feedback, consider whether or not what you’re posting will be something the Dev Team can use to turn into real change — constructive negative feedback can be a powerful tool to help us improve the game. Remember, we really do want your feedback!
- Use the Search Function: Please help us keep discussions as consolidated as possible by using the search function before you create a thread. This will help you to identify if there is already an ongoing discussion about the topic you’re interested in talking about.
- Welcome New Community Members: Please remember that we were all new in the official The Elder Scrolls Online community at one time. Help us foster a welcoming and safe community by being helpful, kind, and considerate to those who are new to our community.
- When in Doubt, Ask: If you’re unsure whether or not something is acceptable post or thread material for the official The Elder Scrolls Online community, please feel free to ask a moderator or member of the ESO Team. Simply send us a message — we’re here to help!
Eso Forum Community Rules. (Adhere to it at all times.)Below is a brief explanation of the community rules and expectations for specific topics and situations. If you have any questions about the Community Code of Conduct, please email The Elder Scrolls Online Team at [email protected]
Abusive Language and Disruptive Behavior: Zenimax do not tolerate abusive language or disruptive behavior on our forums. This goes for abusive and disruptive comments and behavior that are directed at a ZeniMax Online employee and ESO community members alike. Please remember to be respectful and constructive at all times on the forums, and help Zenimax maintain a friendly and welcoming atmosphere for all.- Advertising: We do not allow advertising on our forums. This includes, but is not limited to advertisements and promotions for the following:
- Outside businesses and services.
- Other games.
- Any venture that results in monetary profit.
- Bashing and Slanderous Comments: We do not permit the bashing of individuals (including ZeniMax employees), groups, or other companies on our forums. We believe that doing so is neither constructive nor in spirit of our game and community.
- Conspiracy Theories and Misinformation: We do not tolerate the deliberate and malicious spreading of false info or conspiracy theories about ZeniMax Online Studios, its game(s), or its employees. This does not include honest mistakes; rather, this rule pertains to those who go out of their way to spread harmful or malicious rumors about ZeniMax Online Studios and its employees, or The Elder Scrolls Online.
- Copyright Infringement: Names and Material: We do not allow copyright-protected names on our forums. Copyright-protected names are typically from well-known original characters in books, games, and movies. We also do not permit discussion about the illegal distribution or use of copyrighted material, such as private game servers or pirated movies, music, and games.
- Cursing and Profanity: Purposefully circumventing our forum profanity filter or otherwise cursing or using profanity is not permitted on our forums. Our forums have a profanity filter in place for the purpose of keeping profanity off our forums — please help us keep the ESO community constructive and profanity-free by respecting that filter.
- Demands and Threats: We encourage you to share feedback, suggestion, and requests with us, but we expect all of our community members to refrain from resorting to demands or threats. We believe that demands and threats are not constructive. Threats of real-life violence, in particular, are something we take very seriously and do not tolerate in the ESO community.
- Deliberately Disobeying a ZeniMax Online Employee: Deliberately disobeying a request or action by a member of the ZeniMax Online Studios/ESO Team is not permitted at any time. As an example, if we close a thread you created and leave an explanation stating why it was closed, you may not re-create the thread.
- Discussing Disciplinary Actions: If you ever have questions or concerns about a disciplinary action or decision we have made on the ESO forums, or wish to appeal a forum warning or infraction you’ve received, we ask that you please contact https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/ to do so (please specify that you are contacting about a forum-related inquiry or appeal). We are happy to discuss and review specific moderation-related actions with you, but we do not allow discussion of any moderation actions or decisions on our forums. If you have questions or concerns about an in-game disciplinary action, please contact https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/ to ask about a suspension or ban, and any other support-related feedback. We cannot assist with in-game violations on the forums.
- Flaming: It’s okay to disagree and debate on the official ESO forums, but we do ask that you keep all disagreements civil, constructive, and on-topic. If a discussion gets heated and turns into a debate, remember that you should stick to debating the post and/or thread topic. It is never appropriate to resort to personal comments or jabs about those participating in the thread discussion.
- Goodbye/Quitting Threads: We understand that sometimes people will leave the ESO community, and want to post a “goodbye” or “quitting” thread. Generally, we have found that “goodbye” and “quitting” threads have a tendency to go downhill fast. It is our policy to read the feedback in “goodbye” and “quitting” threads and close them, regardless of whether they are constructive or not.
- Hate Speech: We take the use of hate speech very seriously in the official ESO community, and have a zero tolerance policy. Our definition of hate speech is prejudice or hateful comments, slurs, or statements that promote violence or intolerance toward others because of the following:
- Race.
- Creed.
- Color.
- National Origin.
- Gender.
- Age.
- Disability.
- Sexual Orientation.
- Lifestyle.
- Any other personally identifying factors.
- Impersonation: We do not tolerate impersonation of any kind in the official ESO community, and take impersonation attempts very seriously when they do occur. Impersonation includes using a display name, photos, posts, or any other material with the intent to fool people into believing you are a ZeniMax Online Studios employee, another community member, a celebrity, or anyone else you are not.
- Inappropriate Content and Language: Certain topics and subjects are deemed inappropriate and not permitted on the official ESO forums. Things that we consider inappropriate are usually illegal, extremely volatile or violent, obscene, vulgar, or simply inappropriate for an official game forum such as ours. Inappropriate content on the ESO forums includes, but is not limited to the following:
- Extreme violence
- Illegal substances and activities
- Pirated copyright-protected material
- Pornography and other sexually explicit topics
- Real-world religion and politics
- Tasteless, vulgar, or obscene material
- Malicious Links: We do not tolerate the posting of malicious links on our forums, for any reason. This includes links to pornographic material, key-loggers, and browser hijackers, but also includes links to private game server sites, phishing scams, and sites that sell in-game currencies and power-leveling services.
We greatly appreciate when our community members wish to report a harmful or misleading ESO-related site to us, but please do not do so on the official ESO forums. If you discover a site you want to report to us, please report them at https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/. - Names in Thread Titles: Please refrain from placing the names of ZeniMax Online Studios employees or ESO community members in your thread titles. Directing a thread at a specific individual, or otherwise using a thread to call someone out, is not considered constructive. If you need to get a hold of a specific community member, please send them a private message.
- Naming-and-Shaming: We do not allow posts or threads that are created for the purpose of “naming-and-shaming” other community member(s). “Naming-and-shaming” is the act of creating a post to call out an individual or group by name, and making them the subject of public accusation, ridicule and/or shaming. Generally, naming-and-shaming involves an in-game situation and/or Terms of Service violation, which the ESO Community Team is unable to assist with. A certain amount of rivalry and competitive razzing is healthy for any game community, especially one with PVP elements, but naming-and-shaming goes well beyond that. It typically elevates to a point where the subject feels legitimately harassed. We believe that naming-and-shaming posts and threads can be abused and are very harmful to the community. We also don't feel that publicly calling out or accusing others by name on our forums is in spirit of the game or our community. If you genuinely believe someone has violated our Terms of Service, you should report them in-game via the support interface — do not bring the situation onto the official ESO community forums.
- Personal Information: For the sake of your own identity protection and personal privacy, we ask that you please do not share any personal information in the official The Elder Scrolls Online community. This also goes for sharing another community member’s personal information — doing so is not only considered malicious behavior, but it is a violation of our Terms of Service and something we take very seriously.
- Petitions and Protests: We do not allow petitions or protests on our forums. Due to the fact that both promote the use of demands and replies that consist of “/signed” or little else, we feel that neither encourage nor allow for meaningful and constructive discussion. Instead of using a petition or protest, we recommend presenting your thoughts as a request or suggestion so everyone in the community can discuss it.
- Role-Play/Fan Fiction God Modding: We support the fan fiction and role-playing communities on the ESO forum, and ask that you please respect your fellow writers and role-players by not “god modding.” God modding is the act of forcing another community member’s character into a situation they have not agreed to. If you wish to involve another person's character in a story or role-play scenario, please respect that individual’s wishes and get their permission first. Failure to do so is considered “god modding,” and is not allowed on the ESO forums.
- Rude and Insulting Comments/Commentary: We understand that sometimes tempers rise, but it is never acceptable to resort to rude comments and insults. This goes for rude comments and insults directed at other community members, and ZeniMax Online Studios employees alike.
- Selling, Trading, and Sharing Game Accounts: The act of selling, trading, or sharing your ESO account is a violation of our Terms of Service. As such, we also do not allow discussion about selling, trading, or sharing game accounts on our forums.
- Spamming: Please do not post spam on the official The Elder Scrolls Online forums. Below are a few examples of what we define as spamming:
- Posting the same message more than once.
- Posting messages that are nonsensical or have no real content.
- Posting messages or images large enough to disrupt the normal flow of conversation.
- Reposting material that has been removed by a member of the ESO Team.
- Thread Bumping: Please refrain from replying to discussion threads for the sole purpose of “bumping” them. This is considered to be a form of spam because it does not add to the discussion in a constructive or meaningful way. We understand that everyone would like to keep their discussion active and visible, but we encourage you to strive for meaningful and constructive posts instead of posts that consist of nothing more than “Bump!”
- Trolling or Baiting: The act of trolling is defined as something that is created for the intent to provoke conflict, shock others, or to elicit a strong negative or emotional reaction. It’s okay and very normal to disagree with others, and even to debate, but provoking conflict, baiting, inciting, mocking, etc. is never acceptable in the official The Elder Scrolls Online community. If you do not have something constructive or meaningful to add to a discussion, we strongly recommend you refrain from posting in that thread, and find another discussion to participate in instead. It is also not constructive or helpful to publicly call out others and accuse them of trolling, or call them a troll—please refrain from doing so. If you genuinely believe someone is trolling, please report the post or thread to the ESO Team, and leave it at that.

✭✭✭✭✭Is this a stamina warden?
The fact you were even living through that as long as you did is insane.

Kneighbors✭✭✭✭✭Lol man. Is this the first tank your are playing besides DK? Did you realize it is possible to make the same or even better with Sorc or Templar tank? GJ, you just discovered it is possible to tank not only on DK.
The only thing that could kill in that fight on your video is bosses heavy attack or a shout. And you actually died on a shout. So I didn't find anything amusing.
It's an amusing video only for those who never tanked hard content or tanked it on copy/paste DK build. Several days ago there was a magsorc who soloed that dungeon till last boss 14% in light armor and you come with "LoOOOok I'm OP I can survive bites of trash and cast absorb magicka on bosses attacks". Wow. You are damn goooooooood. -
Kneighbors✭✭✭✭✭BTW, I understand you don't know it, but tanking and healing 4 man content is all about buffing the group. I hate to see tanks who uses sets like Ironblood to fight for their survival. The good choice of sets for that specific boss is ebon+alkosh+bloodspawn, or akaviri dragon instead of ebon. A tank who has to fight for his survival by putting Ironblood+desert rose+troll king is a miserable tank, far far away from OP. In that specific fight theres no chance i die on dk tank with group buff sets till columns are up. You had atleast 2 left, OP, lol....

It is not a "happy post", op is bragging, that is a no-no, no matter the situation. What makes it worse is that he is bragging about something that is not good and he thinks it is. Any class can used to build a tank that does what he is doing, survive, it is a whole nother ball of wax to build for team support, at the very least tanks ought to have ebon. -

✭im sorry but here is a thing i am not trolling ect i am been honest .. i don't kick people / vote to kick but @RouDeR i would vote to kick you in a heart beat faster then i can push the damm button .. and here is why.
There is nothing more annoying NOTHING then when the tank is last one standing and instead of rezzing people or dying so the rest of YOUR team can rezz and finish it he is wasting time , and OP that is exactly what you are doing .
I never understood this YOU KNOW you are not going to kill the boss and YOU KNOW you will not rezz other team members so the ONLY thing you are doing is wasting those poor players time... congrats....
im sorry OP but that is really selfish how you just wasted those other peoples time for nothing and i hate to think how many times you done the same thing before hand ... and its really annoying as i said i would vote to kick you in a heart beat.

Houshiki✭✭✭✭So I watched the vid, and read the thread thus far... am I supposed to be impressed?
Ok, OP survived a good amount of time time solo, I'll give you that.
Now to pick apart OP pros.
- DKs are king of sustain.
- Templars have best self-heals. Sorcs too if they've slotted surge and hurricane or something else.
- Minor/Major protection, sure, not like templars and nbs don't have that.
- Every class has some sort of aoe dmg ability and every class can tank. What's the point in being capable of doing aoe dps with a tank's dps?
- If you want a heal tank, templars are probably the better choice.
- 3k isn't really all that significant just to switch cp from pve to pvp.
- Couldn't really tell what gear. Saw in an earlier post ironblood+desert rose+troll king. There're better sets to use for pve. This seems more like a pvp set up.
- Fun to play? Debatable.
- Unbeatable? Well, tanks are generally difficult to kill in pvp due in part being tanks.
- Snare resistant? I'm guessing you mean the warden's winter embrace passive. -
Chufu✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Yeah warden Tank is really fun and will get a little bit buffed with CWC (Wings more dodge + 3 portals). I Love to play him too.
But I think it would be hard for Vet trials with him, as DK is much better in surviving (magmashell for example). I saw that when our Maintank in vHoF was at the 2nd boss: First we did that with his DK, no Problem. Next Week with bis Warden...and he died very often. Maybe it was a Bad week or it was the difference of warden to DK, I don't know.
But it's fun with warden Tank. Can't wait to go vDSA with my 3 portals Haha!@OrcTalk auf Twitter

Tellmeagain how Templars will have best selfheals with 10kmagika ?
Or how the DK will be able to Selfsustain on 20 mobs + boss if builded for permablock ?
Wardens have the best resource return passive in the game and the best ultigen, also the healing Over time is scalled with mymax health and does not require for me to drop on low health in order to heal affectively.
ALso yeaha DK proper heal requires Igneousshield also yeah which is like what 4k shield cost + 4K HEAL COST SO u will spend 8k magika of your Magica pool just to heal yourself ONCE.
You poopdropers obviously DONT KNOW how to tank , and what is the best tank for non trial Vet content.

rob_ber✭✭✭@RouDeR , I'm not here to argue with you. Just want you to ask a simple question. And yes, I do have a DK and a Warden tank. At least for me Warden tank is fun toon, to fool around, tank vet content, etc. But when required to tank serious stuff I always use DK. Oh, the question, ofc. How can you seriously tank without chains and talons? Mindlessly running around taunting big blobs ....~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Toons in Trouble | Storm GuidesPC EU

onemoredragon✭✭✭So there's a Malubeth proc in the vid, so I assume it's a self-healing build.. well, it's indeed can be fun to play. You can build something like this with NB tank and enjoy self-healing too, but it's definitely not OP, not in PVE at least.
From my experience, you can tank vet trials, at least Craglorn ones, with Warden tank without any problems. Done vSO as main and vHRC.@RouDeR , I'm not here to argue with you. Just want you to ask a simple question. And yes, I do have a DK and a Warden tank.

How can you seriously tank without chains and talons? Mindlessly running around taunting big blobs ....
And yes, sometimes you don't need to use Talons. It's nice to have them of course. As for Chains, wardens have a portal
It is slightly slower than chains but not terrible at all. Plus with the next update it will be possible to drop a portal 3 times. Even as a DK tank, it's nice to think of resource preservation and do the positioning of the mobs in such a way that it would minimize chaining. You can do it on a Warden as well.

How can you seriously tank without chains and talons? Mindlessly running around taunting big blobs ....
Warden have Graund AoE Root like DK , and if needed i can put range tount , depends on the content .
The sets like Alkosh and Abon are for the OFFTanks in trials, The point of the main tank is to stay alive nomatter what , 30% of the group wipes in trials is cuz of a squishy tanks.So better safe than Sorry .
And i dont have Soul Gems cuz those guys cost me all my 40 that i had in the beginning of the dungeon . -
rob_ber✭✭✭Well I know the Portal and the Winter's Revenge skills.... but god they are clunky to use. At least Portal is.
@onemoredragon totally agree, you don't need Talons. But is such an asset for the group if tank can keep mobs nicely stacked so DDs just burn them.
@RouDeR to some extent I do agree with you about main tanks. Maybe it's me, but for me essence of tanking is not just aggro, permablock and selfheals. Even as a main tank I try to provide at least some support to my group. For example in vMoL, first boss shield phase I will always even as a main tank try to help healers with Vigor so the group will be OK. What can you do with Warden? Drop Forest? Isn't Warhorn ulti better?
I'm not trying to criticize you, just debating here. Not rezzing those poor souls ultimately caused your team's wipe. 40 soul gems doing pug/inexperienced group is nothing. If you on PC EU I will gladly offload some soul gems to you ....~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Toons in Trouble | Storm GuidesPC EU

Houshiki✭✭✭✭So I watched the vid, and read the thread thus far... am I supposed to be impressed?
Ok, OP survived a good amount of time time solo, I'll give you that.
Now to pick apart OP pros.
- DKs are king of sustain.
- Templars have best self-heals. Sorcs too if they've slotted surge and hurricane or something else.
- Minor/Major protection, sure, not like templars and nbs don't have that.
- Every class has some sort of aoe dmg ability and every class can tank. What's the point in being capable of doing aoe dps with a tank's dps?
- If you want a heal tank, templars are probably the better choice.
- 3k isn't really all that significant just to switch cp from pve to pvp.
- Couldn't really tell what gear. Saw in an earlier post ironblood+desert rose+troll king. There're better sets to use for pve. This seems more like a pvp set up.
- Fun to play? Debatable.
- Unbeatable? Well, tanks are generally difficult to kill in pvp due in part being tanks.
- Snare resistant? I'm guessing you mean the warden's winter embrace passive.
Tellmeagain how Templars will have best selfheals with 10kmagika ?
Or how the DK will be able to Selfsustain on 20 mobs + boss if builded for permablock ?
Wardens have the best resource return passive in the game and the best ultigen, also the healing Over time is scalled with mymax health and does not require for me to drop on low health in order to heal affectively.
ALso yeaha DK proper heal requires Igneousshield also yeah which is like what 4k shield cost + 4K HEAL COST SO u will spend 8k magika of your Magica pool just to heal yourself ONCE.
You poopdropers obviously DONT KNOW how to tank , and what is the best tank for non trial Vet content.
First and foremost, I've nothing against warden tanks. A pity if that's what you thought. Secondly, calling your build "op as hell" yet dying at the end... yeah...
Now then:
- 10k magicka? No tri-stat food? No tri-stat enchants? Well, even then, templars have ritual, a fairly wide aoe hot. Its quite nice, one morph increases healing and does dmg, the other increases the duration, and during that time mag regen will do its work. There's also honor the dead, other morph of BoL, refunds the costs over time. If the tank's hp is yoyo-ing, self-heals isn't the problem.
- DK's self-sustain with 20 adds and the boss? Kite them around the boss and build ulti? Sounds familiar, right? Seriously, they've got passives for ulti gen, stam restore, and resource restoring in general. Maybe pop SnB ulti or magma shell and use the time to get back resources, chug a pot, and heal, if they still need to. Or maybe use that time to, idk, rez the dead?
- Warden's resource returns; I'm guessing the netch and the regen that comes from Flourish, and Nature's Gift while healing with a Green Balance ability. For ulti gen, I'm guessing shimmering shield, and the return from Enchanted Forest.
- The HoT being scaled with your max health... ok you lost me there...
- A DKs self-heals, sure they're not cheap, but its not like GDB is being spammed. Again, if the tank's hp is yoyo-ing the self-heals isn't the problem. Besides, the ability has other buffs aside from the heal like minor vitality plus the Burning Heart passive, once every once in a while is plenty.
- Personally, I don't main a tank, that doesn't mean I don't know how to tank though. Seriously, I've a DK tank I play with, and from my perspective, non trial vet content has a fair amount of leeway.
Now again, I've nothing against warden tanks, they've got plenty going for them. -

Sorry to tell you, you went into wrong direction. Templars and Sorcs need their points in magicka and health, much less in stamina. If you are trying to copy DK pattern onto Templar and Sorc and find similar skills, you are on a wrong approach. So no mate, you don't know how to tank mitigate damage through variety of skills etc. Probably you know only DK tanking and trying to copy it to other classes, and then like poooof that class is very bad for tanking! -

From my experience, you can tank vet trials, at least Craglorn ones, with Warden tank without any problems. Done vSO as main and vHRC.@RouDeR , I'm not here to argue with you. Just want you to ask a simple question. And yes, I do have a DK and a Warden tank.

And yes, sometimes you don't need to use Talons. It's nice to have them of course. As for Chains, wardens have a portal It is slightly slower than chains but not terrible at all. Plus with the next update it will be possible to drop a portal 3 times. Even as a DK tank, it's nice to think of resource preservation and do the positioning of the mobs in such a way that it would minimize chaining. You can do it on a Warden as well.
When you say self-healing tank build the number 1 will be magsorc. These aoe heals, wardens ults etc are total crap compared to sorcs critical surge and shield stacking. And I think troll king will do a better job for a real self healing tank than Malubeth
