Usually i pop up AOE taunt with Reflect right after, you should be get a good ammount of agro from that, and when you go into the Cantina, make sure you go in first so you have initial agro, just pop Reflect as soon as your in with a AOE Taunt, shouldnt have too many issues with that. I agree on the Absorbtion, but the other thing to consider is that any of the MK2's are Might Armoring's and not Guardian. All of the comm gear (Mk1's) are Guardian. So its either Str or End. Just curious to see how people are doing in the stat numbers. Im sitting around 18/35/23. Just seems like a pain to get that Def up, although i havent auged all my gear (all 69 minus belt which is 66 armoring with 69's ripped from a chest piece).
