So getting groups as you level up is getting increasingly difficult. It seems there is a real shortage of tanks (healers too but they seem somewhat more common depending on faction). I have a relatively low level NB so it's pretty easy to respect. I don't want to spend hours looking for a group just to complete the dungeons. should I respec?

MaxBat✭✭✭Just a suggestions: You might get more responses in the Class forums under PvE ..."Funny that magic doesn't work when a mace caves in your skull."

hk11✭✭✭✭Im playing mine in full cloth with a resto staff. So far, so good. I dont really like it that much but it seems to be about the only real option.2

o_0✭✭✭✭Nightblade tank = long fights along with having the game on easy mode in terms of staying alive.
Love mine, but i think that's mainly because it's the only way nightblade really works and is enjoyable in it's current state.1 -

✭As a sword and board tank, or was (cant play it to being so underpowered for anything!) why anyone would want to tank anymore is beyond me.0 -

I liked tanking before ZOS made it impossible to tank as a DK 1h and shield. I cant even solo a mob anymore, as I cant do any dps. So Ive switched to a 2h style for dps1 -
loudent✭✭✭wait! what did ZOS change that makes it impossible for a DK to tank? (I have a baby dk tank too).

The nerf to the one good CC skill (Talons) killed the abillty to control any larger group of trash mobs. Its near impossible to get more than 1-2 now, and at the expense of casting it its not worthwhile to cast again. Other than that its the nerfs to 1h and shield that hurts as well.1 -
loudent✭✭✭what nerfs to 1h and shield? (I've been using on my Templar tank and still succeeding but he's only level 25)0

The expense now of blocking, having a 3 sec cd on interrupts with bash, the nerf to the dust of damage, and it seems blocking doesnt seem to mitigate anything anymore.Edited by Ragnar_Lodbrok on May 29, 2014 7:55PM0 -
loudent✭✭✭woah, I don't know how I missed that... There's a 3 second cd between interrupts? and having a shield doesn't actually block more damage? WTH is their reasoning for this?
ETA: Also this explains what happened yesterday. I was DPS doing the interrupts and half the time I couldn't interrupt. The 3second CD explains what was going onEdited by loudent on May 29, 2014 8:03PM0
