Dark/Dark Brute or Tanker?

[drgantz]

I've read some posts that Tanker has gotten loved while Brute has gotten nerfed.   I've also read that Tankers can be more damaging than before.

Which do you think is better for Dark/Dark?

Well...you posted in the Tanker forum, so I'd say "tank".

 

Tank AOEs were buffed, but broots get fury.  Usually comes down to both can tank (but tank can, more easily, be made sturdier) and both will do damage (but brute will do more).  I build most tanks for survivability, rather than solo play, so I'd vote tank.  Here's one built before ToF was buffed (so doesn't include it), but is a framework that gives you an idea of just how tough a dark tank can be:

Either one - but i lean tanker - while having less damage than the brute you can max resistances out to 90 in every category except two.  My Dark Dark tanker is one of the most durable I have.

Either one is great I have both!
