LA or Robe for TT solo?

Any thoughts?

Are the physical aoe bosses worth swapping to LA? Or can you stand outside their aoe range and still heal pet maybe?

Would an LA build have enough Mag for pet heal to remain good enough (I assume yes, but you never know)?

I'm trying to gather as much info as I can before I begin my TT attempts as I haven't found any compiled guide or thread that really covers it all. If anyone knows of something like that, could you maybe redirect me to it? :)

I have played a robe build so far, but am considering LA. Some thoughts and opinions would be good at this point though.

Thanks :)

    If you're doing solo mode there is no boss aoe,if you mean soloing the squad modes with hercules light armour won't keep you alive from the physical aoes,only heavy and buffs will keep you alive...and your heal as LA doesn't have to be gimped if you can afford the best of rings and weapon ;)
    Quit 100%...and surprised my forum account wasn't banned...yet

    I don't think LA would have enough mag to heal properly in there, atleast not at the levels robe users can do it. You and your pet would die alot. Especially if the mobs swarm. Your little bit of extra tankiness will mean nothing once your pet dies...just like a robe user lol.

    The snake boss at the end of 1-2 hit my lv 71 herc like this at times : 1600, 1000, 600, 800, 1200. And my herc only had like 3.2k hp.

    If you are thinking LA will help you solo bosses like soulbanisher and Lord below like 90...then nope. >:o
