    yep. regular dps mag templar w/ BOL can fill this role too. both are reactive heals that smart target 2 people (50% of the group) and thats more than enough in a dungeon where you can kill everything before it can even reach you if youve got 3 range dps. you only need a resto staff healer in 12m trials

    having very high dps kinda breaks some 4 man content, you can kill mobs before they can do much of anything. and in the current endgame, most deaths are to people being one shot, so having 3 dps means theres less time for people to get killed by a OHKO, and you can avoid certain mechanics altogether. its sort of a shame that its designed that way, but I dont know any easy way to fix it.

    I agree, solid groups only need a "oh crap" burst heal periodically. Magsorc or magplar dps is enough

    it is kinda a tough issue to fix. the dps gap between players is gigantic (3k light attack spammers to 50k stamnbs). content can't be buffed because it was intended for a certain benchmark, but it's just so easy to surpass that so much now. the only fix that comes to mind is a new difficulty tier where they re scale things, but idk how practical that js

    I like to tank it with three dps. I just find it a lot easier. I actually quite enjoy Dragonstar. Top notch content.

    Edit: I just realised I might of necro’d the thread. I apologise.

    Is the SPC buff enough reason for the sorc to carry a resto staff and a Regeneration morph?

    Admittedly the idea is weakened because spell power isn't so great for a pet sorc himself ...

    Lol, likewise I’ve always enjoyed Tanking Vdsa. Now the 3 Dps thing depends on the Dps, Lol, I’ve still got great scores with regulars setup but more of a hybrid Dps/heals. But agree three solid Dps optimal

    I have been tanking vDSA in SPC, Livewire, and Earthgore. You mentioned in your post a magdk tank is used. Can you elaborate on the magdk tank build please?
