ES is the best to make a tanky character?
|
While it is absolutely possible to make a 'tanky' life based character, ES is objectively the 'best' way to do it with the current game mechanics/ROI for gear.
And yes, everything may change with 3.0, but since we'll be starting over, that's not relevant to the discussion today. | |

There are way to many ways a character can take damage (small rapid hits, one big hit, degeneration..) to answer this in a way that is "ze true answer of them all"
It is just that the most common way to do this is the easiest with ES: Enough ES to never get one shot, enough sustain via VP to fill up ES instantly after it does go down. But block, high regen, high immunities and so on and so forth are all completely viable ways to get yourself more tanky than that. It is just that all of them require much more investment. | |
" Holy shit that is what im looking for. | |
" Be aware that this build is staggering, disgustingly, unrealistically expensive, if the pricing given by the build writer is correct. really, man...a slight increase in overall Gudness can save you a billion exalts. | |
" Yeah but doesn't matter all i want is to experience it even if it's not optimal. | |
" The problem is that it seems unlikely for a new player who is having the kind of problems you are wanting to address to have the kind of currency that a Low Life Guardian tank build will cost you. U MAD?

What Doc said.
There's a minimum buy-in on a build like that, and I'm not sure you have it. There's a reason people suggested Champion or Juggernaut Earthquake - it can be done on what amounts to a self-ground budget. Low-life Guardian SupahTank cannot. | |
" I dont think this build is possible for SSF. | |
|
Well, we will see, if you are right then this game sucks because you depend on buying shit instead of finding it like it should be.

High Regen works in absence of leech. My RF guardian has 2k+ regen.
