I really like tanking and I tank a lot but I'm also lazy and don't make alts all that much, always wanted to try tanking with other types of classes and resource focus. So it got me curious, what kind of tank does most people play as? My best guess is DK but what kind of DK? So what kind of tank are YOU?

slumber_sandb16_ESO✭✭✭✭Nightblade Stamina TankNB stamina tank. Unlimited stamina and magicka, permanent armour buff with shadow barrier that frees up skill slots for more damage dealing or even more tankiness if the situation calls for it, great self healing with minimal effort.
I also have a DK stamina tank but... yeah. Stamina DK tank doesnt even come close to stamina NB tank, I wish it did but it doesnt.3 -

OldManJim✭✭✭✭✭Hybrids and/or otherI play a DK HA health / hybrid build. Most of my points are in health (39k) with enough to give me 20k stam & 15k magica.
It doesn't cut it in PvP, but I'm a PvE'r & it works well enough there.PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!1 -
FailSaucePro✭✭✭Dragonknight Magicka TankDK magicka tanks have the ability to spam talons, chains, self heals (including small dot if using embers or magick/interrupts if using inhale or draw essence), minor damage shields, a 10% bonus to fire damage, and will soon be able to provide a major sorcerer and major savagery buff. With all the wonderful DK buffs coming in the next patch, why not use the class to its full potential. I could spend so much more time just listing out the benefits it's crazy.0 -

✭✭Dragonknight Stamina TankI mostly "tank" on my stamina dk. I have ~23k hp, medium armour and only 1 bar with 1h+shield (2h or dw on my other bar), but's enough to tank all vet dungeons and with my 37k stamina and nearly 3k weapon damage I can help kill stuff faster. For trials I need to switch my attribute points a bit to have more hp, but then even manti or hel ra hm are possible in medium armour.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Nightblade Magicka TankI've tanked on both a magicka NB and a magicka DK. They have their strengths and weaknesses. For most content, my NB is better, able to add off-DPS and healing, but there are a few places where my DK can outshine.Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU
