Soo... this raid. ezy enough, just have to have few ppl with right weapons and little bit of brains. mechanics aren't hard at all, just need to make sure you do them.
Just gonna explain why I chose the weapons I did for this Raid. I chose Huma and Lan, with Shiro (ofc Shiro, for the shatter ^ ^) Lan allows all my skills to have aggro on them. This is soo I can keep aggro off anyone who does damage. Like at start of the raid, the Icarus healer will do 8% damage. I will use Huma skill and Lan skill at start, to make sure I hold aggro from this damage. Then whilst i'm kiting the boss around the map, Huma allows me to stack damage reduction, keeping to boss in one place. great for letting the team been chillin ^ ^. also because its two Flame weapons, I get Flame resonance, giving me more Flame Resistance. Ow and grapple is really good for reducing damage and building charge in this raid and tanking in general :3
Question. The newer characters don’t intersect me gameplay wise I like to use saki huma and zero ss tank can I still perform well in a end game setup with these characters?
Too an extent yes. That build works fine, the only part of end game you might struggling with is holding agro against whales. The main part though is, just play what you think is fun and if your f2p or new to the game, get what you want. there isn't too much of a "meta" for tanks, just different builds which either make yourself tankier, more agro or help out the party more. (as long as you can stay alive and take agro, you are doin great as a tank ^ ^)
Icarus for tanks, gives the player a block shield equivalent to the total sum of your resistance. This is activated on ever 1 skills he uses and can stack three times. Because I play a high resistance build, this shield is massive. Though, Icarus only works in a tank build because of both saki and lan. Saki let's his skill spam reset all skills very quickly and lan let's his skill spam have agro on them. So it's a very high defence build with allot of agro.
You can try going for this build but would have to wait a while on ps5 for these characters to come out. Also idk how ezy Icarus rotation is on a console controller
You should try and get gear with high flat resistance rolls, with at least one or two other resistance types on it as well. You can try rolling for a little bit of attack, but once you have characters which have allot of agro skills (lan) you won't need attack.
Hey man im starting again after 1 year + without playing. Since Saki is on the permanent banner i decided to reroll and start from scratch. Do you have some tips on how to start strong? I would like to play tank in the near future obviously 😊
Um, if your just starting/ coming back, with fresh account. I would say ye, try and get Saki, now that she is in standard banner. (She will help allot with Agro pull and general Team helping at higher stars) After that, you have both Meryl and Huma in standard who can be your second Tank in your team, then use any healer you can get for the 3rd in your team. (Coco or zero) Save any Red pulls, for the re-runs of Mimi and Lan (I think you just missed Lans re-run and Mimi just finished her release banner >
