this message goes to everyone but esp trs your days of tanking everything in pvp is over stop doing it. i see time and time again trs trying to face tank enemies like gwfs and gfs and pallys and hrs and sw's stop doing it it doesnt work its not smart and its asking to be killed. its really easy to stun lock someone when there sitting still for you trying to just out dps you to survive longer. unless you have trans negation this tactic is very bad and not smart. any tips youd like to share please comment below.

My GF can't even facetank a TR. They just ITC to negate my CC then murder me with DF.
I face tank everything on my CDub. Then again, only started doing it because my T. Negation made me lazy. Sorry.
Hit me up for some PvP ----> SORCERER SUPREME.
I've seen you. Tabbed shield + T negation on a CW is absolutely ridiculous. Practically impossible to kill unless there's 4 of you chain stunning and ccing

unless your an hr. where they cant hit back sure it will take years to kill them cause of arm pen bug. but at least we kill them.

depends on the situation.
I like to get up in the face of people on my tr, in pvp. But I make sure itc is up or I am doing it from stealth. It isn't tough to get a 8 tick 10k+ duelists flurry bleed. So it is kind of just the opposite from my point of view- anything that is going to just stand there while I unload a full df into them 1v1 is just suicidal. I've had my sf pop while doing this against decent tanks, but it pops I hit itc and waters arty and am back in business at near full strength while they are down to almost nothing.

And do you find that a TR is supposed to be able to facetank a fighter and win?
I don't think so.
Another proof that TR survivability is too much.
I see TRs facetanking often and the reason is they are immune while doing this or can just, as you say, unload a full df, get the damage and then roll away/ pop ITC/ get away with it easily.
Plain and simple, too many cheesy tools together on some builds that allow too much survivability.

I can't say what is right, just what is. This is a fairly broken game and between piercing damage, enchants that process over and over again or are just easy to exploit, majority of damage coming from passives and so on, you have people using what the game gives them, to do the best they can do to win.
One thing I will definitely agree with is that all of the things people complain about TRs are things the devs seem to feel are wai. That isn't right.

XD that works too.
By all means, don't attack me! I prefer to go untouched as I nuke.
It would be a great change of pace since T. Negation is a free targeting reticle that says "Kill this guy".
