tank monster sets are pretty bad.

thats really about all I wanted to say. they are so bad that even for a "Greedy" tanking build. you'd probably rather go something that a healer might pick more so than a tank traditionally. earthgore, or chokethorn, they were nerfed a bit too hard last time. wish they put some power into them. yeah pvp I know.
buffing malubeth, stonekeeper, skeleton, and others would be really interesting.

✭✭✭✭✭Hey look these are all sets that have been nerfed in the past. On a more serious note, try the mythic chest, it is broken. Ditching monster sets and going for master s/b is also a very strong option.Edited by zvavi on August 6, 2020 9:17PM1 -

Mature response
if you have a counter argument, feel free to present it. I get that you might like to feel comfortable and don't want to manage a buff, but if you are able to manage that single buff Chudan is far inferior than all other alternatives. EU PC0 -

Very true. Balance has been a thing for a couple or three years now.0 -

You lose way more than you can possibly gain. as already stated: balance, or for other classes: Warden: gives resistance buff gives another 8% dmg mitigation, Sorc's gives speedbuff, etc. I think every source of the resistance buff gives me more than just that one free skillslot + monster set
That beeing said: There are no really good tank-monster sets. Lord warden? nerfed to oblivion, Earthgore? barely worth it, so on and so forth.. Maybe the new monsterset with the self synergy will be ok?0 -

it wont. because you need to use health skills. i literally have 0 to slot on NB tank .1 -
joseayalac✭✭✭✭✭It's not a good thing that a 2 piece set can make up for the majority of the tankiness of so many rounded builds. (PvP and solo PvE)
That's the reason tanking monster sets aren't good for the game's health. Good ideas could be to make some set that is synergy related or weapon glyph related maybe. Or could be some kind of set that transfers damage to the tank. Lots of good ideas but I understand why the older sets where nerfed.0 -

I use Spell symmetry or Equilibrium on all of my tanks (DK, necro and warden) so that won't be a problem.
But I don't know anything about nightblade tanks so... yeah.. maybe it sucks on nb.
necro will be pretty nice tho, you will be able to give yourself two synergies. (boneyard and monster set)
