freakin 21 pages of flawless ego battle (l2p, 6v6...) about a tiny barely relevant buff
Im glad you found a specific setup where spiritual dmg is used at his full potential, and that you can beat a tank down as fast as the guarded mdps, but cmon why do you have to brag around like that and try to bring down the discussion about the balance of all tanks...
That's so annoying really, i hope the community won't tend into that kind of behave in the long term

.....it is a small change......

It might be a small change on lvl 26, in t4 though it is not.

The SM on 2h is the most viable version of the SM. Only going for shield in cities etc..
The t4 SM has a 50% parry channel, combined with 25% EF (if it stacks), 18% parry from RR plus what you might get in items you can reach 100% permanently with no chance of removing it. (taunting the channel helps for 1 gcd) making the 2h SM almost unkillable for melees. While he is already the hardest to kill for ranged classes out of any 2h tanks.

You want to make the most tanky and probably most dmg dealing tank more tanky. congrats on that

It will hardcore buff 2h SM in t4. Especially when you know what you are capable of.

ho ho ho, ofc they afraid of Up Sms so much dat KOBTS\CHOSEN users .
"You want to make the most tanky and probably most dmg dealing tank more tanky. congrats on that

Such bullshit ).... do u even saw how OP KoBts is?) --most tanky and probably most dmg dealing tank--DONT MAKE ME LAUGH
(free 15% disrupt FOREVA,240STR, 10% BLOCK without even points in tree, ECT,ECT)
all ppl stucking spirit resist so SMs damage would be not so high , BUT NO ONE ever stucking elemental resist -Beware if you ever meet ELEMENTAL KoBTS and he ill RECT U to the floor and PUNISH over and OVER).

SM was able to kill CHOSEN only before mega buff- 3 AURAS all THE Time RoR feature ;on LIVE - they was able to put full DeBUFFS on you only after 12 secs of fight , but now u start fight with full DeBuff - without even possibility to disrupt his TWISTER-rotation.
So now SM and BO , in fight with equal opponents KoBTS \ Chosen - don't have stand a chance... (now even almighty IB feels like gimp compered to KoBTS)

Talking about 2h tanks and grp play, there is no need for a 1on1 comparison. Rage somewhere else pls.

Oh sorry my baby boy KOBTS , ur mega 2h DPS or AOE15%+incoming heal what the same part of it not OP?
1)SM in party play - DIDNT had any party buffs.
2)SM in 2H play - do you srsly think HE MORE powerful than KOBTS or IB? with 2h?.
2h -
IB was "KING" of that game on LIVE . (and anyone who wasn't able be in tops with all of his DOTs+KD+armor debuffs -just unskilled player)
KOBTs -maybe he lose 10%block 15disrupt , but still has all of his MOJO as damage dealer - over 9000 vids. on youtube where `ANY`PRO`shows how he powerful.
On other hand we GOT only 2 popular build SMs - DOT SM and bubble tank. "skilled" ppl always combine these 2 types ;
And what , Srsly if you able to kill CHOSEN as one of SMs , Chosen was BAD as hell deal with it , and he much more useful for his party than ur SM.
And do not dare call SM MOST DPSing tank , or most Durable ever agan , Or ppl ill start remember How they was capable
to tank WHOLE WB as Black Guards 100RR.

If you haven't even been paying attention to the fact that Nanji plays SM, then please don't bother posting.

Okay, dear guys lets dream about "Unkillable " SM with 100% parry under of Wall of Darting Steel
He so POWERFULL, manly, BADASS - Ok, ok stop dat Sarcasm -
1) DOES yours enemy didn't had any of WEAPON SKILL points -Parry SKILLs or tactics?
2)Now SM can parry with his Back or SIdes - and under KnockDown effect on floor?
3)Or he had any AP regen tactic or AURA to keep Wall of Darting Steel ALL THE TIME?


Btw why u didn't cry about Black orcs? (Can`t hit ME! +50%block Channeling , +2 tactics 10% block per one) so He can put up 100% block ALL the time = and he even got AP regen tactic CHANNELING for rest of his LIFE..rofl

[Nishka]

Idk I remember dueling against insane strong SM's who were nearly impossible to hit due to how much parry they had

I can barely read what you write but let me explain.

1) the concept is: more dmg -> squishier, so why would I allow the SM to get 100% parry without effort?
2) anyone can get hit in the back, where is your point? 100% parry and 50% dodge/disrupt are way to powerfull on a 2h tank
3) your grp does, playing solo is not where you can expect anyone to balance around

BO gets slowed and can be easier hit in the back, also he has to wear a shield and we were talking about 2h tanks.
Buffing the defense of a snb tank is not such a big thing as buffing a 2h tanks defense.
