tank

I think this was brought up a while ago, but I think was abandoned for a while. Since practice > theory, here is some experiences of people who have done this: http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/jobs.html?fjob=19;mid=120329047361136021;num=29;page=1 I plan to attempt this when I start on DNC. I...

Recently the new-tank thread was split-off for a great deal of time regarding techniques in endgame tanking by jobs that hadn't up until the past year been used as focal tanks for parties. Due to the amount of hate a RDM can accumulate over time, they can cap themselves out at the same amount of...

SE said in the Fan Festival that they want to make one or more of the current job to be the next new tank when i mean a tank job .. endgames also include not just in EXP party so who you going to bet on ? so far i think these jobs can be made into tanks after "few" adjustments SAM...

I had a party in krt last night fighting bats as a ninja. Standard party setup, nin, sam, rng, rdm, whm, blm. I'm pretty sure this is the first time since I got utsusemi: Ni that I have tanked anything besides Beetles or Crabs. Let me tell ya, as a ninja, bats suck. I actually even died...

Fuck!

We all had an rather settle debate on if a sam could tank in the past. Now, i wonder can they tank now + whatever level they get Sagain(or the other one i forget)? Ive seen how many Sam are amazed they can "blink" attacks +2-4 times all still in 30 seconds; That's not including the parries and...

So this story begins with me heading to sky to log out for the night on whm. By the time I get there I’m having fun talking with people so I decide to run around exploring. I end up going to visit Ark Angel TT. Now I’ve been in there before a couple of times to get SS’s and stuff. But this time…...

Paladin or Ninja. Simple question at first. But once you hit the mechanics.... I personally prefer PLD over NIN in every situation. Vs. Mandragoras- PLD. Ninja's shadows fall to fast because of Mandy double attack. Vs. Goblins- PLD. Goblin -ga spells wipe shadows anyways. Vs. Pugils- NIN. At...

Well, after a horrible experience with a PLD tank earlier today, we ended up killing him, which caused him to leave (he deserved it...). Anyway, so while waiting for the other tank to come (he had to take the ship), and the WH mbeing 2k tnl, I said jokingly that I'd tank. Well, either way. we...

If you wanna make pt, who you'll go for? PLD or NIN reason? why you like this tank? are you picky?

Trying to see which Tank & Refresher combo most people prefer to exp with. As you can see I've been playing both of the tanking jobs we're familar with. Sorry just noticed this was in the wrong forum, can't seem to find the delete option. [Edit: Fixed. -Sculli]

Here's something that has been running through my mind as of late. It has been told Sam was originally suppose to be a tank. Yet it is well known they are not, but has anyone ever tried? Is it actually possible for a Sam to hold hate and take hits with the right food and equipment? Just asking...

Well i was wondering if anyone has fought the following NMs. 1- The one that pops when you trade an air tank to a ??? in Movapolis.Goblin matman something 2- The name is pretty wierd.Pops when you trade haunted muleta and it drops toreadore's cape. 3- This one pops when you trade some item thats...

this is related to FFXI. and also not related. i found a SUV called the Dakar, Paladin. am i the first to see this? i think Dakar is german or something , but i have to know. has anyone else seen this?

Ok guys I comprrised this therory a longtime ago and I was wondering how many people might agree with me. And Im totally open to suggestions. So here goes...(Mostly deal with the Refresh aspect of the two jobs) RDM in party means Pld tank will be better due to the individual Refresh thus not...

Go Go insta RDM tank! http://k2x.net/keith/reconstruction/pictures/ff/rdm_tank.wmv yeah bitches, thats rdm/drk powar :D

Mine of course would be war/nin :wink: I love being able to dual wield 2 axes and take some damage for the party.

Once again, I call upon your knowledge to answer my question! Having recently turned 25 with my WAR, I am debating on wether or not using Defender as a tank. It certainly help and make the life of the healer easier, but it inflicts less damage and I assume it makes keeping aggro harder. So...
