Hey guys, I've been reading the Proc Monsters thread here for Tankers and I made 2 different builds. I wanted some advice on which you guys think will perform better.

 

Shield/Psi Melee

My pros:

  • Capped Defenses to any attack in the game
  • Against All Odds for +damage
  • High haste to assist in the no recharge in procced out powers

My cons:

  • Resists are meh at best
  • Not as good proc potential as the other build
  • Doesn't take advantage of the Tanker's 90% resist cap

Thanks for your help guys! I look forward to your advice, you guys are experts!

If you're making a Tanker, ask yourself why? A Brute has the same resist caps, and does more damage. The real edges (IMHO) are Tankers Taunt way better, and have a higher target cap. So which has more AoE capability? That'll take more advantage of the Tanker's higher target cap.

 

Hope this helps.
