    I get really upset when everyone demands a barb for BH59. Seriously, the only reason a barb can even tank BH59's bosses is because they go into melee range, and have a LOT of HP to absorb the magic attacks the bosses will do on occasion.

    NOTE: Barbs also have an amazingly consistent channeling cancel, which (if used correctly) can prevent the magic attacks from hitting most of the time...except for when another squadmate takes aggro or something and mixes up the timing.b:surrender

    A Wiz, Psy, Veno, or second Cleric can tank BH59 bosses just as easily, or if they have good gear, with less headache, than a Barb can. My Cleric has more MDef at level 71 than the typical barb has PDef at level 78. Do you think Zimo's lightning attack is going to hurt me very much? I don't even need BB to tank Zimo, there's tons of Barbs out there who will die very very fast at level 75 without BB at Zimo, because they don't have the MDef to take the occasional lightning attack.

    And even Melee, Zimo is still gonna use it on occasion.

    See above note.

    Only thing that makes me generally wish I went sage on my bm is shadowless kick, lucky barbs qq
    If I had sage kick I'd be able to stop a lot of magic too b:cry

    Add Earthquake on your genie, at lv10 it's 100% chance to interupt. With high vit and magic, I could spam 3 time in a row alone, so combined with shadowless kick, problem solved. Might also be usefull to knock sin out of stealth if throwing that on a pvp genie...

    Would be fantastic if barbs used that skill. Or any skills at all. b:sad

    Since I'm firmly in the camp of 'most of the time, other classes can do it better', I've decided to level my barb when I'm bored.

    And... When I play my BM, weather I'm tanking or not, I spam Shadowless Kick on bosses with no obvious channel (Rankar, Wyvern) and 90% of the time, I can cancel their AOE.

    I haven't run BH59, since I'm lazy, and only feel like playing my sin right now. But, for stuff like Zimo, I'm sure that in a Barbless run, I can cancel the magic attacks just as well.

    >_> i ahve a ton of trash genies I use for stuff like this. An alpha male genie for my Sin, PK genie for whatever needs it, cloud eruption genie for FCC, cleric specific genie, a low level 3/30 zeal just for pulling. Pulling a currently unused skill off one genie and putting Earthquake on one of my BM's Genie would only take like 2 minutes.
    101 Sage Sin*/Archer
    100 Demon BM*/Barb
    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno
    85 Psy/80 Mystic
    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    It makes me nervous when all the people with speed buff skills PLUS HOLY PATH leave me behind (I'm the Cleric) and I see them dying 100 meters away from me and I can't do anything because genie is recovering energy. I can use Holy Path 2 times in a row but sometimes it's not enough. This mainly happens in FCC @ magic mob pull. I hate that part. Most of the time, a Sin kills the shades first then the Barb even collects the physical mobs and it's a HUGE pull... *shudders*

    Oops, above post is mine, was on alt to get blessing and I forgot :x

    Edit: Jesus, fine. the post above the post above this one is mine. Before the crazy lady up there starting her book about tanking BHs

    And also, no. Your sin will horribly die when trying to tank ofotis unless you're giving him a +10 warsoul helm or other over-refined ****.
    Figured I'd point out I've tanked Ofo on a level 70 pure dex sin that didn't have completely insane twink gear with a mystic solo healing me. This was uncharmed and in melee range. Co-incidentally, it was because the 92 sin who was attempting to show off also happened to be a moron that couldn't play to save his life (seriously, he PM'd me telling me to rib strike bosses even when I was already keeping up rib strike while perma-2sparked) and got killed by Ofo.

    Honestly, I've never seen the big deal people make of Ofo. I've tanked it on literally every class without any real issues.


    tl;dr: Depends on the sin. A good sin with a competant healer can do it. A bad one, not so much.

    Huh... Maybe I'm Twinking too much... But my Archer, Sin, BM, and Veno have all tanked their BH's (well, not so much on Veno, but I did tank, no pet, BH59 a lot).


    I still get nervous, because people like you are the exception. On average when I hear the whole 'let me tank' litany at these levels, it has ended badly. Perhaps I should have qualified it that occasionally it works out and works out spectacularly, but most of the time it does not.b:laugh

    I get nervous when i'm cleaning the attic and the light goes out every 30 minutes. Pale little girls with long black hair/nails walking backwards just loves to crawl around in attics ive heard b:cry

    In game i get a little nervous when people i dont know is trying to start Warsong or do the hidden TT-boss for Guard of Thundershock/Parasite Sachet (map 4 belt). I know they're gonna pick the wrong option at the NPC and than i have to reset instance and start all over and it takes ages <_<

    Also nervous when:
    Cata-barbs screaming in vent that their hp-charm is gone during TW
    Refining without orbs
    Loads of green dots on the minimap coming towards me
    Opening skill-books
    Tanking Steelation/Beast/Emperor in 3-3 on my assassin
    PvP when outnumbered
    Crafting Nirvana gear and thinking about getting 2 socket pants/helms
    Logging in-game after being inactive for like 4-6 months
    Being in party with clerics that have less than 5k hp
    Tuesdays just before maintenance when someone bought out all gold in AH


    Hmm is 1 month a necro i wonder?

    I get nervous whenever a sin/seeker/BM insist that they can tank Pole and Nob. x-x

    I also get very nervous when in the middle of a boss, while we have a sin or archer in the squad, the barb decides to go human.

    so true, makes me shiver aswell

    When I get in a squad with 2 or more Sins or a squad with nothing but mages (The only exception is when a bunch of Clerics get together) and squishy classes. Then somebody ultimately drops the million dollar question: "Who's gonna tank?" b:shocked

    b:scorn I did a TT 2-3 run with a full squishy squad and we cleared it faster then a 5aps squad
