Hey! I'm looking for a good solo tank. Which one of these has the best survivability? Captain/Warden/Beorning

[@YTJayell]

@@esengnal I'd say probably the Beorning for survivability. However, the warden would be a much smoother leveling experience as they have great AOE for clearing landscape mobs.

[@esengnal]

@@YTJayell thanks! if you say warden would be much smoother, how much worse is the warden survivability compared to the beorning?

[@YTJayell]

@@esengnal the warden has a lot of self healing too! They are just a lot more complicated, have a LOT lower morale pool, and have only medium armor. You have to work a bit harder in difficult content to shore up those weaknesses with gameplay and items.

[@hutch9016]

great content man, very helpful:)

[@xDarkjoy]

how good is in combat morale regen? you wearing the sun rings? is the in-combat morale regen good to stack on a tank?

[@YTJayell]

Nope, not wearing the sun rings - Im wearing the veteran rings from the skirmish camp that give a ton of morale. Hilariously BIS at the moment.

[@xDarkjoy]

@@YTJayell Ahh ok, I didn't know. Thank you Jamal.

That megapull made me create a dwarf captain 😂

[@igorsykes2116]

Hi, could you bring a level 60+ guide for tank?

[@YTJayell]

Absolutely! Plan to do this when Moria drops :)

[@Spacepotato9000]

Captain is prob bis for massive aoe pulls when leveling? On red line you can spread double bleeds like crazy on everything arround you right

[@YTJayell]

Not sure about BIS, but definitely a lot of fun and can handle big groups well :)

[@NumpFlump]

Any plans to do a rift tanking guide? I'd like to jump in but not really much information out there.

[@YTJayell]

Yes, in fact I am working with Bludborn to release a video on rift soon!

[@dermatze_fotografiert9908]

Which helmet do you use in this build?

[@YTJayell]

Interestingly enough, the heavy helmet from skirmish camps is incredibly good! Something like 13 vitality and 72 morale on it. Just for a few marks too!’

[@enth1980]

How would you say warden do for tanking at 50?

[@kaioo1658]

Warden is right there with beorning and guardians as best tanks In game

[@Pillysutty1]

IMO warden is 4th best... Heavy armor is just king just better mitigations. But the Warden is viable for sure!

[@lolauvelia]

How many enemies did you pull in that one instance lmaooo
