Another one of these threads.. sorry.

I was searching bosses that herc can tank, found a nice list by swgs but I assumed they were for robe.

What I was wondering is.. can someone please provide a list of exactly which bosses (mainly TT & FB) a LA veno can tank?

Much appreciated.

    you can tank the same as robe veno.; depends only of the mag bonuses you have

    for some bosses being a couple level higher than a robe veno can help.
    I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

    Rules= Know your enemy (players and NPCs) gives you more chances to survive.

    why would a robe tank any better than a LA.that % based off your matk isnt much of a diff just get a good wand or sword something

    Mattk is better the more mag you have ;)

    At level 65 using a TT60+1 sword 50 extra magic results in roughly 300 more MAtk; Cure lv7 has a 24% MAtk +375 heal rate.

    From memory my Veno has ~3400-3900 matk (Rough guess, I haven't been on my veno for awhile.)

    That would make my mean MAtk = (3400+3900)/2 = 3650MAtk

    Which means my mean Cure Pet = 3650*0.24+375 = 1251HP/Cure.

    Take 300 magic off (again, this is as much estimate as anything)

    MAtk = (3100+3600)/2 = 3350
    Cure Pet = 3350*0.24+375 = 1179HP/Cure

    50 Magic makes a ~72HP difference. Meaning ~1.44HP/Magic point.

    At 65 most LA builds would have 69STR, 69DEX and 200 Magic. (Before gear)

    At 65 Arcane have 39STR and 286MAG. This is a difference of 86 magic; or 123.84 HP/Cure.

    In general that's not going to make a difference, but sometimes it just makes it. It would be enough for a lv65 Magmite Arcane to solo Oggo, but a light armor would not be able to, for instance. The light armor would have to wait a few more levels or have a lot more+Magic. But at 65 both could easily solo something like Gouf. (I don't have a Herc, so I can't say when either would be able to with one.)

    By the way, anyone is free to substitute my estimates for actual numbers to see how far off I am. I would like to know if you do.
