Storm-themed Tanker?

Recommended Posts

A little outside the box, but Ice/Spines! One of the spines customization options can be made to look kinda icy-ish, and again with auras and such...

You would still have to deal with the toxic green splash from the spines -- doesn't seem like that can be recouloured anywhere -- but if you can either ignore or headcanon that aspect it could be a fine choice. And with two damage/slow auras it's sticky AF to boot.

You don't, by chance, have a build lying around for Stone/Electric, do you? I've gotten to 11 so far and grabbed Jacobs Ladder...and I'm not so sure it was worth it. 

I threw this one together fairly quick. Hits soft capped Defenses to S/L/E/NE/F/C/Psi. One stack of the Tanker +Resist AO gives you 67% Resist S/L, capped F/C resists (don't even need the AO for this), 36.45% E/NE resists, 70.97% Toxic, and 27.95% Psi Resist.  2302 HP, which bumps up to 3215 with Earth's Embrace. It'll regen 50.25 HP/Sec, which with EE active it jumps to 70.16 HP/Sec.

  Those stats are similar to my Stone/Staff tank, which so far hasn't had any trouble (even in +4/x8 fire farms).

My latest Tanker's powersets are not a combo which you will see talked about much if at all--Elec/Rad.

I have one of those as well. I like the multiple damage auras. And like you said it's not always about being high unstoppable, sometimes a theme catches you. I came up with an origin where I had this high school track athlete that comes home to find his parents dead in a murder suicide due to one finding out the other was cheating. The parents were biochemists and the kid being wrecked with anguish injects himself with a syringe containing a compound that his parents were working on hoping it would actually kill himself...But it gave him powers. It was essentially my first foray into the experimentation pool.

 

That said make any combo you can because they can all have interesting uses.

Oh man, another good option. 🙂

 

Actually, the only Tanker I leveled to 50 is an Ice/Ice Tanker. I love him.

 

 

Absolutely, positively, THE aggro magnet.  Nice work.  Only Ice tank I ever made to 50 was an Ice/Battle Axe on main (FRZRBRN)...should have done Ice/Ice, in hindsight...

The last couple of days I have mainly been playing the new Ice/Energy Tanker, a Fire/Claws Tanker, and I've gone back to have a look at my old Ice/Ice Tanker. I like them all. Ice/Ice might still be my favourite and I'm going to sit down soon and try to work on a new build for him.
