Namas Arrow and Samurai

[BerenTebogo]

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Don't fucking build a relic for its stats if you're doing it yourself. Who gives a shit if x relic is 2% slower dps than y relic, its a fucking relic. A fucking 200 million gil weapon that screams Epeen and I'm better than you.

If anyone wants to tell you your relic sucks or isn't as good as x weapon, tell them to fuck off and make their own. Once again, its a goddamn relic weapon.

I can think of 1 exception and that would be getting excalibur before Aegis if pld is your main.

Stupidest fucking post I've seen outside of the crafting forum in a good long while. Way to raise your own bar, ace.

Show me the sam that can tank AV,PW, even nidhogg

I think you're in the wrong place.

[boo]

blood tanking DI,cerb,faf,nid,khim. Now im not saying a non aegis pld cant tank anything; there very well can but it needs alot more support and alot more help.

Show me the sam that can tank AV,PW, even nidhogg without a ton of cure bombing

Yeah.......... so I guess an aegis pld can magically regen himself while blood tanking those mentioned HNM aboved w/o being cure bombed.

[Tsuko_Asura]

You don't need to be "cure-bombed" for any of those things.

[EjinCaitsith]

Yilbacanator

eing

Made me lol.

[Konda]

~ and nobody said sam cant tank, sam can tank alot of things great, but again except for anything that is major important. Show me the sam that can tank AV,PW, even nidhogg without a ton of cure bombing,Any of the new abyssea high lvl nms i.e Glaviod,Kukulan(spelling), and yes i will glady admit im wrong.

Spoiler: show

lol@blood tanking. If a PLD is doing his job right, he shouldn't be using Aegis at all because his shadows will be absorbing all of the attacks.


oh, and I solo tanked "Yilbacanator" on NIN/DRK, and that didn't have an Aegis. we didnt have 4, but we had 7 with three 2 boxed charactors.

ITT: No TP moves bypass or strip utsu. I agree that Aegis is far, far down the pecking order of relics, but this statement is just silly.

[Taint]

SAM with 3rd eye merits and a solid PDT set can get away with tanking any mob that can be slow elegied and not have to sub NIN. With the cap change DDs have a much easier time pulling and holding hate then PLDs. Our PLDs generally go Sword/Sword once the DDs have hate on the mob.

[Dooom]

If your DDs are tanking then why are you bringing plds? I'm not being an ass, I just genuinely don't understand. Unless you're talking about times when you have a boatload of people and are fighting multiple things, some of which DD can't tank and don't wanna be messing with job swaps?

Mainly because of how random our LS is. 234234 People at one mob/event, 6 at the next. That and some people are very narrow minded and still assume there have to be 2 PLDs in the tank pty.

[FailureMidgard]

Sam + Aegis is the best tank party combo! We've been using that on a lot of random stuff lately including Tia and Lambton (and Sam does really well on both, regardless of being unable to melee some of the time).

That pisses me off to no end, seriously. I can't even count as high as the number of times an arrogant mage has raged on me for making the tank party as SAM/NIN. I wish I was at home to post a screenshot of this chick who just recently left my shell. She declined my party invite like three times, spamming in LS for an invite to the tank party, finally screaming in LS that SAM is not a tank. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

This is very true, but you don't need an Aegis to cap block rate with shield. This means an Aegis results in you taking a little less damage when blocking and a little less magical damage from spells, nothing game breaking by any standards... at least that's the point I was trying to make, and put it in terms that fool could understand.

Are you still in The Blue Print? Just curious.
