Hello everyone ! Welcome to my tank build page ! I have 2 build here , Horny Tank and Crusher . Horny Tank has the most Ultimate Regeneration you can get in this game and Crusher has the highest potential of reducing the armor of enemy . Both has crazy sustain with High Health pool but their sustain comes with a cost . I use 4th Mages Guild skill to get Magicka . So , if you don’t know the fight , don’t use this tactic because you will probably kill yourself . Anyways , let’s get started .

Anyways , let’s get started !

For those who don’t want to read :

CHANGES :

-Changed build page completely . Added Crusher build and both builds have changes in Attributes and gameplay . (21.09.2016)

-Changes in items and CP .

-Vampire tree added and made some skill changes . (11.07.16)

-Changed some gear , skills and some CP  . (24.06.16)

– Spent 30 points into Arcanist to get the Synergizer passive . ( Points taken from Magician ) ( 30.05.2016 )

 

———-HORNY TANK———

 

PROS :

– Sustain is crazy due to Ultimate usage and Equilibrium .

– You are really tanky thanks to high Health pool .

– Horn is up most of the time .

– Your DD’s will love you .

– Your Healer will love you .

– Everyone will love you .

CONS :

– Adds less DPS to the group compared to Crusher but adds more than Crusher in any AOE fight .

RACE

Every race will do , just don’t pick Wood Elf . Stamina Recovery is not important . Pick something that increases your Max Stats or Magicka Recovery . My character in live server is a Dark Elf and I am happy with it .

STATS(only food buff)

FOOD

Max Health + Max Stamina + Max Magicka

MUNDUS

Lord

POTION

Stamina , Magicka , Tri-Stat , Major Vitality . Whatever is needed at the moment .

GEAR

Tava’s Favor : Ultimate regeneration set which favors DK tanks especially . Every time you dodge something ( it doesn’t matter if it is with Shuffle or Roll Dodge ) you gain a buff that gives you 9 Ultimate over 3 seconds .

Chest ( Heavy – Infused ) : Multi-Effect

Feet ( Heavy – Sturdy ) : Stamina

Pants ( Heavy – Infused ) : Multi-Effect

Gloves ( Medium – Sturdy ) : Stamina

Belt ( Light – Sturdy ) : Stamina

Blood Spawn : I never liked this set but if you want to achieve this build’s purpose to the highest , you must wear this . Proc rate is very low though . I tested against Blood Spawn with 1 DD beside me 3 times . All combats lasted around 1:30 . 1st test resulted in 2 procs , 2nd test resulted in no procs and 3rd test gave me only 1 proc . It does give Ultimate but still , proc rate is very low .

Helm ( Heavy – Infused ) : Multi-Effect

Shoulder ( Heavy – Sturdy ) : Stamina

Agility : Nice set that gives much more Max Stamina with 2 pieces than any other set . This is our main bar .

Sword ( Decisive ) : Crusher

Shield ( Infused ) : Multi-Effect

Akaviri Dragonguard : Very nice set for Ultimate reduction . Also gives Magicka Recovery and Healing taken while on main bar .

Sword ( Decisive ) : Absorb Stamina

Shield ( Well-Fitted ) : Multi-Effect

Necklace ( Healthy ) : Shield-Play

Rings ( Healthy ) : Shield-Play

SKILLS

1.Bar : Sword and Shield

1- Ransack : Main Taunt skill . Low cost . I chose this one because there will always be Elemental Drain on the enemy and Healers don’t target tanks to make them get Minor Resist buffs . They target DDs so they can get the 8% damage buff .

2- Heroic Slash : Minor Heroism . Keep this up all the time . Also reduces enemy damage by 15% . Very good to close the gap in defense .

3- Igneous Shield : Another Ultimate regeneration skill . Use it every 6 seconds to get 3 Ultimate from Mountain’s Blessing passive . Also use it when you need stamina .

4- Invigorating Drain : This thing is insane . It heals you and it gives 5 Ultimate per second . Be careful while using it .

5- Absorb Magic : Block cost reduction and block mitigation . Also very useful defensive utility against casters .

Ultimate- Barrier : Gives 10% Magicka Recovery from passive .

2.Bar : Sword and Shield

1- Elude : 20% Dodge Chance . A necessity for all tanks . Procs Tava’s Favor .

2- Echoing Vigor : Nice AOE heal for everyone . Good to have in certain situations . Use Igneous Shield to boost the Healing .

3- Inner Fire : Ranged taunt .

4- Spell Symmetry : Our trick to infinite sustain . Be careful while using it because it takes huge chunk of your Health .

5- Hardened Armor : It gives us Major Resist buffs and 12% more healing taken from passive .

Ultimate- Aggressive Warhorn : 10% stat bonus for 30 seconds and 30% critical damage bonus for 9.5 seconds to whole team .

CHAMPION POINTS

RED

Depends on content . 100 Elemental Defender rest into Quick Recovery for vMoL or 100 Hardy rest into HA Focus or Quick Recovery for Hel Ra / Sanctum Ophidia .

BLUE

100 Blessed , 77 Precise Strikes

GREEN

100 Warlord , 30 Arcanist , rest into Magician

You probably going to say ” No Shadow Ward ?! ” Yes . No Shadow Ward . You don’t need that . You will be spamming Ultimate and you have 4 Sturdy pieces . Just keep a potion if you need one but I am saying , you won’t need one .

———-CRUSHER———

PROS :

- Insane armor reduction . (5.2k from taunt , 3k from Alkosh , 2.5k from weapon enchant)

- Increases DPS of the group by a huge amount .

- Very good sustain thanks to Spell Symmetry .

CONS :

- You need synergies to make this build work in its best condition . So , ask for synergies .

- In AOE fights , you will add less DPS to group compared to Horny Tank .

RACE

Any race will do . My character is a Dunmer and I am happy with it .

STATS (only food buff)

FOOD

Max Health + Max Magicka + Max Stamina

MUNDUS

Lord

POTION

Stamina , Magicka , Tri-Stat , Major Vitality . Whatever is needed at the moment .

GEAR

Torug’s Pact : This item sets 5 piece bonus is amazing . My Infused sword reduces armor by 2529 . That is insane .

Chest ( Heavy – Infused ) : Tri-Stat

Legs ( Heavy – Infused ) : Tri-Stat

Feet ( Heavy – Sturdy ) : Stamina

2x Sword ( Infused ) : Crusher

2x Shield ( Infused ) : Tri-Stat

Alkosh : This set is pretty strong in terms of armor reduction because it reduces both Physical and Spell Resistance . The fact you need synergies to activate this annoys me a bit but definitely worth it .

Hands ( Medium – Sturdy ) : Stamina

Belt ( Medium – Sturdy ) : Stamina

Jewelry ( Robust ) : Shield-Play

Blood Spawn : This is here because there is simply nothing better to use . This can give you an extra warhorn in a long combat .

Head ( Heavy – Infused ) : Tri-Stat

Shoulder ( Heavy – Sturdy ) : Stamina

1.Bar : Sword and Shield

1- Ransack : Main Taunt skill . Low cost . I chose this one because there will always be Elemental Drain on the enemy and Healers don’t target tanks to make them get Minor Resist buffs . They target DDs so they can get the 8% damage buff .

2- Heroic Slash : Minor Heroism . Keep this up all the time . Also reduces enemy damage by 15% .

3- Igneous Shield : Our main stamina sustain skill . Gives 5% stamina with every use . Costs Magicka and we have infinite Magicka thanks to Spell Symmetry . Also gives Ultimate and a nice shield .

4- Spell Symmetry : Our trick to infinite sustain . Be careful while using it because it takes huge chunk of your Health .

5- Absorb Magic : Block cost reduction and block mitigation . Also very useful defensive utility against casters .

Ultimate- Barrier : Gives 10% Magicka Recovery from passive .

2.Bar : Sword and Shield

3- Inner Fire : Ranged taunt .

4- Engulfing Flames/Sanguine Altar/Invigorating Drain : Engulfing Flames if there are no mDKs in the group . Sanguine Altar gives team a small but long duration heal . Invigorating Drain if both are being used already or combat is very mobile .

Ultimate- Aggressive Warhorn : 10% stat bonus for 30 seconds and 30% critical damage bonus for 9.5 seconds to whole team .
