Arnock Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I'm curious as to what point I could start tanking hardmodes as a shadow? I've mostly had to gear up through pvp, seeing as I have yet to find a group for any non-HM flashpoints at 50, so I really don't have any idea as to how well I'd even be able to handle the non-HM's Currently I have 15.9k HP, 38.11%DR, 27.7% Defense, 34.76% shield(without barrier) and 30.20% absorption Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battilea Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 That ought to be fine, though your absorb could stand to be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorizdin Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Get your gear to rank ~126 via PvP or dailies (for mods) and you'll be good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dukibritches Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I think you will be fine. As someone said in a post above me, you might want to drop some defense and stack more absorb. This will help even out the damage you take and make damage spikes less prevalent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonFJ Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 126. Balance absorb and defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinemetu Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 On Imp side I'd say anyone with level 50 gear can tank Black Talon and Boarding Party and probably False Emperor as well. Once you have the gear from those places you can move on to the rest. I think Esseles and Maelstrom Prison are the equivalents, but I don't know their difficulty on HM.
