Immortal | Defense Compendium | A Tank's Guide To The Galaxy

[Elobi]

Been reading like a mad man on the official forums regarding the hybrid.

There is one thing that is certain, and that is that they got the numbers wrong; the main foundation of the Hybrid is that Sonic Barrier | Blade Barrier only absorb ~500 + - dmg, which is simply not true.

In terms of the build with the extra DoT damage on Impale I can, on top of my head, say that it will have a higher output in terms of damage, and also snap threat due to unstoppable (so much CC on tanks when engaging)


Regarding survivability - It does give us a 4% flat DR - but the unstoppable and Protector talent, as stated earlier aswell cannot be used on cooldown, positional requirements makes this extremely hard to do.

I'll quote myself:

Quote:TL;DR You would have to take a hit of + 10000 (Which I only encountered on a non interrupted Headshot from Hm Ironfist ) before Unstoppable | Unremmiting is better than Sonic Barrier | Blade Barrier.

The qouted post can be found here

Though, I will start analysing the new hybrid in discussion, since the flat %DR might give a new perspective.

So until proven otherwise, I still recommend hybrid for flashpoints - Compendium for ops.
