    You always make the best Videos, its funny I am one of those healer guys and all my close friends are Tanks, never really thought about it that way.. Dammit they are just using me for my skill aren't they.. I feel so unclean :(

    I can never play a tank. Admire those who can I am the one you blame...I play healers.

    I recognize Rift and SW:TOR from the video, but what is the other game that he shows clips of?

    Old School EQ Cleric'ing was the bomb. I miss it so much... It's just not the same anymore.

    Watching this made me realize why most mmo players today play solo and skip any group content.

    Maybe because I'm mostly playing healers, I liked the healer video more, but this one was funny as usual - especially those jabs and remarks towards our (tank and heal/support) common enemy, the dps :lol:

    Unfortunately there are plenty of tanks following your "Fake it" advice already, and with the current state they can get along with it, since as you said, the queue is short :wink:
    (not saying I'm a good tank, just I used to go with the learning advice instead...)

    Well as I've mentioned, I've played a healer for like 2 decades... I've only been playing tanks for about a year in prep for this video... so I had a bit more to draw on for the healer vid.

    I have your guide to healing saved on my disk, this is going to be saved too. :D

    Boobs are LIFE, Boobs are LOVE, Boobs are JUSTICE, Boobs are mankind's HOPES and DREAMS. People who complain about boobs have lost their humanity.

    Thanks I just watched it and had a good laugh. From playing one in almost every game since Everquest (played a wizard in that) It really hit the mark.

    I only ever tanked on one mmo, Tera. Only did so there because I was able to survive on my own ability, all others you live or die based on your healer.


    All the stuff in this video is true, it's ridiculous how everyone expects you to know everything as a tank.
  • knightauditknightaudit Member UncommonPosts: 389
    I always liked my one rule when tanking ... You spank it, you tank it ...
  • SinsaiSinsai Member UncommonPosts: 405
    LOL.


    Love your video's Hive :)
