    In my high 70's I was able to tank all of the BH 59 bosses (since they're all magic at a distance) if I had IH spammed on me. So yeah, it's possible if you have good cleric. HP charms...maybe, but don't use them as a crutch to lean on. Better to have a cleric.

    ok, but You thought that I should invest a little in vit, just for having sure that I'll be capable of tanking they? Or that would be a waste of points?

    thanks xD ^^

    well, in all honesty, it's either a little vit or actually put effort into refining your gear or work on getting decent gear for your level instead of just taking what you get along the way and whatnot.

    In my guidless days I solo'ed the last three bosses (found in the wraith swamp) needed for the Chrono key. I'm pure magic, keep in mind.


    Psys can definitely tank a crapton thanks to White voodoo. We just don't because then our damage is too crappy to HOLD aggro, and killing in White voodoo does take ages.
    Magic bosses on the other hand can be tanked just because we're arcane. Guess Psy might be preferred over other arcanes simply because we do have a fair amount of skills to toy with to help us stay alive. If the going gets tough, you just white voodoo long enough to get healed. Problem solved. A Psy would also get more HP back per heal thanks to Empowered Vigor.
