Tank or Dps?

Recommended Posts

My Jedi Knight is at lvl 9 now and she will soon have to pick an advanced class and spec.

 

Should she go:

 

1) Tank spec

or

2) Dps spec

 

I already have a tank Jedi Shadow and a dps Sith Marauder.

 

Thanks!

In my opinion it really depends on what you want to do. If you want to

focus on PvP I would personally spec Vigilance. For leveling PvE Defense

is exceptional (especially after level 34). After you get Doc (healing

companion) and Blade Barrier specialization you are pretty tough. When

I say tough I mean you can fight higher level elites and walk away with

full health.

 

I briefly respecced into Vigilance for PvP reasons in the 40s, but quickly

returned to Defense at level 50. Defense in PvP can be pretty slow, and

you should spend much of your time guarding someone, preferably a healer.

 

As a true frontal tank, I say specialize the Guardian into Defense and enjoy

the ride, but that is just one guy's opinion, you should really shoot for having

fun and doing what you like.

Try out Guardian then. Remember your Marauder is a mirror class to the Jedi Sentinel. Also don't be fooled, Guardians can put out some nice numbers. Of course it takes gear and enough talent points invested into your talent tress's before that will happen. Good luck with what ever way you go though.
