FFXIV: Tank Academy - A Guide To Tank Materia For Patch 6.1

"Grab a brew" literally had the tea up to my face when you said that xD

[@T.N.24]

Wait wait, so determination is outgoing dmg and incoming heal?.. or outgoing heal? And critical hit applies to outgoing heal (for healers) as well??

Eagerly waiting to see the 6.2 video and if I can finally have an Omni-Tank set as opposed to deciding between WAR or DRK for the raid tier.

What are the caps? Are there no diminishing returns on the stats? I was hoping to learn about the min maxing on the stats for tanks. I don't see any good information on that anywhere which is leading me to believe it doesn't matter, please correct me if I am wrong.

Hey chap, no worries. For advanced cap stats and stuff, I'd check out the references if you can. Two big ones are: www.thebalanceffxiv.com/ www.akhmorning.com/allagan-studies/stats/speed/#explaining-skill--spell-speed

@@TaruTV Thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for :)

[@kickemindafacestyleson6986]

thank you ....finally someone who actually knows and shows what the materia does for each tank. I always knew, as a PLD main, that skill speed is key but all the folks who don't play tank, those who just want u pushing out as much dmg as possible, keep yelling screw your skill speed. And especially the time differential chart based on your skill speed you, those seconds shaved off are key to mechanics in the game, my sks is usually around 825 anyways so thank you for that info.

pld and gnb needs sks to fit 11gcd into fof and no mercy, not becos they want faster gameplay... warrior and dark used to need sks due to inner release and delirium but they've changed it.. they even changed blood weapon so dark no longer requires sks...
