An intelligent tank? Unheard of!
So I know you guys have been following Oloh's discussions of combat gameplay from a warrior's perspectives, but I wanted to outline one piece that was mentioned on the OVF recently.

When asked about min/maxing and stats being a factor, Oloh responded with:

Quote:
It is 100% a factor. They just added in stat migration, so I have been tinkering with my stats a lot to get the best feel for tanking / aggro generation / perception. The difference from min to max in any ability is huge. Every single stat is important, and I can see guilds and groups having different tanks keep their stats set differently so that they can do all of the critters in the game. Here is a hint, an intelligent warrior will not only have better perception, he may, in fact, actually tank better in certain situations.
Can I BE any more excited?? Can someone offer up the answer to...Who has been saying from day one that he hopes intelligence matters to tanks and not just casters? mwahahaha

Just wanted to throw that in the fray.
Tremble and stuff guys, go me!
It's also my birthday, so I figured posting threads about mostly nothing would be ok!

ummm...you!

Yes, This is going to be a BIG plus to playing a tank in Vanguard.

I was thinking back to how boxed I was as being a EQ warrior, 1 main function..hold agro as MA..and if I wasnt MA..stick the mob in the eye and hope he gets hurt.

I am excited as well on Vanguards tank "visions". Heck I have so much excitement I rush home to troll the forums now adays to fish for that new tidbit of information or new forum poster insight in game.

Having INT stats mean something will broading the tanks so much

simply amazing!
