Dean 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 So, I'm thinking of starting to play in the server - thinking about DA. (been playing tanks for over 10 years)Well, after reading some posts it seems that tanks are irrelevant to current chronicle/version. But since DVC is x4 hp tanks might be hopefully useful now?So the main question would be : how are tanks in the server or are tanks even useful, how hard is to find a cp/party for a tank, (soloing?) Or should i pick something like WL, OL ?I'd appreciate any info you can give to me, thank you! Quote Share this post Link to post
Sicklate 10 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 From the little time i have had here so far I would summarize the following:- tanks are wanted (at all levels). Pretty much you will have party since level 24 till above.- one issue with them is the "good" wishers. What i mean here is when someone comes and stuns you while you are training monsters, one result could be that you die and drop gear...- personally i find that the most "wanted" classes are tanks & SE, EE at this moment and also SWS/BD Quote Share this post Link to post
Dean 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Well this changes things. So where tanks mostly are used in this server? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Lucasi 32 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Welcome to server man! As u said that u've played DA for 10 years and after what i've knew. Tank is very useful for raiding epic bosses, stun and paralyze enemies if u r DA which it is very suitable with your avatar picture ? Just play the class that u like most and enjoy it man. Lately if u find a good cp and then u figure it out that ur team need SWS or BD more than DA u always can reroll to them easily by donate 20eu 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Sicklate 10 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Well this changes things. So where tanks mostly are used in this server?Tanks24 - partisans (close to dion) you can stay there up till level 3030 - aligator island/cruma tower/lizardmen plains (oren)40 - DV/cruma2/timak orcs (oren)45+ - EV/DV55+ ...... (not there yet, but from what i see tanks have farmed EV till beginning 60s) afterwards i guess LoA Quote Share this post Link to post
Dean 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 No i meant in parties - I'm well aware of farming zones. I haven't tried classic, but a lot of people saying im better off playing WL/OL/SWS for tanking. Quote Share this post Link to post
Accomplishment 7 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 In C3, mostly used is BD and Sws, they can make same work of a Tank, but, this is classic, so, a remake of C3 w/ base on Last update, Goddess of Destruction (whatever). Then, because of this BD n Sws can't make same work at high level. If u think in really make trains, At lv. 55+ is better u be a real Tank, DA / Paladin / Temple / Shilien.

Rinzler 2 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Welcome to the server and I hope you like it. Particularly a DA with your experience should be familiar with a purpose of their class, and I warn you to be a little different from what it is applied in the Classic.The tankers in the Classic are somewhat limited in their functions, they have a great look, but its function is basically to use agression and run. They are coveted by PTs to trains. Not to mention that up to a certain level (55+) are easily replaced by BDs and SWS.There will always be parties, regardless of their level, but in my opinion, very monotonous this function.I would recommend other classes due to their interactivity and demand on the server, especially Overlord and Warcryer which, thanks to conflicts between the server fronts has demonstrated its advantages. I hope I could have helped and once again welcome. Quote Share this post Link to post
chosen 6 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 so better to party with wizard + SE. Or if you and your party wizard have good equip, you can party together to fast lvl up and good profit. But agro here work right=) and you must agro very often=) Quote Share this post Link to post
Dean 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 So this is the main problem. Do i play tank or do i not. If i'm literally useless the most of the times - it's not worth it. Quote Share this post Link to post
qloc01 207 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 ofc your not, DA is the most valuable tanker out of all tank classes, good luck Quote Share this post Link to post
Dean 0 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Yeah but if i have to grind till 55 on my own, it's kind of horrid. Especially if i'm a tank. Quote Share this post Link to post
chevignon 153 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Yeah but if i have to grind till 55 on my own, it's kind of horrid. Especially if i'm a tank.u missunderstood. U dont have to grind till that lvl by ur self. its just like that till this lvl area sws/bd are nearly as good as tanker as u are.u will find partys without any doubts Quote Share this post Link to post

gfbot 207 Report post Posted April 20, 2016 I remember watching an l2classic pvp video where a fully buffed dark panther was hitting a gladiator in robes for 50 damage.Panther was white for the gladiator, indicating it was in its level range.http://listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=IbeFhwzZaKc&s=185&e=194#L2_Classic_-_Shillien_-_Folkmord_-_Gladiator_PvP_v.5edit: Oh wait it was 28 damage, with 44 crit rate.Damn, if only the pather could of hit another 339x he could of killed him. Im glad theres no beast shots in the 1.5. 56 damage, 44 crit, using 4-7x beast shots (50a per shot) a hit? Pls ncsoft, I only can get so wet. We gotta at least give archers ranged silences before we add that to the game. Quote Share this post Link to post
