Hi guys ,
Many ppl say that 2 tank a god boss we need a huge hp bar and def doesnt matter much..
So i was wondering why dont ppl try 2 tank boss with mage rather than any other char ...
Mage at rb 12 aura5...
Nrml hp= around 1.8
from stats=3600 x4 =14400
rb6=600
aura5=2.5
Total=19.3k

This is possible for all chars bt mages have a big advantage of hp absorber ...It converts damage into hp ..

So just wanted 2 know if ne mages has tried 2 tank god bosses...

Sorry if my post is a silly one ..Coz i dunno know much about the game ...

Regards,

I wud prefer havin higher def than a high blood bar for my mage... hp abs does help but if we wanna kill the boss then we gotta survive thr for long.. if we have more def than we can survive for long... takin is another issue... but i dunno much on this.. i got no god bossin xp

warriors r bettr coz der hp is max widout putting pts in vitality n 1 pt of vitality gives dem 5 hp rather den 4 lyk mages

Tried it already
Tanked also

Now....For one... its not at all difficult to tank the bosses with ne class...every class , with a specific built in blood can tank the bosses until the hp dies out.. !

Aniket...the def doesnt matter in the case of God bosses..they Eventually ignore it...u GOT to hav hp bar.. !

Dead...warriors dnt get 5hp on one pt of vitality...they too get 4 hp like mages.. !
But u are right in stating that warriors hav the maximum hp bar capacity.. !

Shily...Ill tell u one major thng..a god boss freewills u....n Mage after freewill = U know wat ( RAPE ) .. !
So...though mages hav the advantage of the hp abs..they cnt make ne use of it coz of the freewill.. !
And..also even if we can try somethng n keep the abs on the mage n tank the thng... We dont hav a very good skill melee rate as other classes...archers for instance...WD has a nice melee rate...but our skills hav a really sad melee rate.. !
So..there goes the plan of a mage killin a god boss... Into the drain.. !
im not saying We CANT..im just saying We SHULDNT.. !



thats why..i feel that for tanking warriors are FTW...but as a whole..the archer class is IMBA for god boss tanking n hunting.. !
I feel archer class is nice mainly coz of Mirage...God bosses hav a really bad habit of hittin dual crits on u..n when they do so...they do it very quickly n its reall hard to tnk them consecutively.. !
n they are really frequent in doing so.. !
but when an archer wid mirage on it is tanking them...it has the maximum chances of evading the dual crits.. !
On top of that WD is also a nice option for givin high damage on the boss.. !

Therefore.. Archer ... !

@maximus
I was not telling that a mage should go alone 2 kill ...And if u say that god bosses free wills i dont suppose all god bosses does it ... do they ??
The mage can tank the boss And 2 hks can heal him like krazy...And 5-6 archs can rape the boss from a distance..
For instance earthshaker has a very poor range ...Do u think its possible /??

Some bosses dont use meele shots and use range shots only at that time tanking from a mage can prove 2 be handy ...

try it out

Nopes..ive tried Every Bit of it..Nitesh....Every GB freewills....GO n try it.. !

Either they Freewill...or put a curse such that ur magic is disabled.. !

on top of that....Mages arent supposed to tank or sustain..ive tried tellin that many tyms.. !
Mages as a class...hav low def n bar as default.. !


SO...If u wanna try the tanking thng..Y not try the hk to tank the boss..n archer n mages hit frm distance..thats better as an idea...!
Moreover..ive tried all that Stuff...u can tank it..but its easier if u do the tanking thng with an archer or hk.. >,< .. !


The only char which i havnt tried personally for tanking a God Boss is a warrior..We once used JAttsta...he didnt exactly put up the stats we asked him to..but he was tanking Earth Shaker...n if we could get a nice Healer for him.....BINGO !

So..i hav yet to try it out with a warrior.. !



bout ES..it doesnt hav a poor range buddy..moreover it blows u off ur feet kickin u in ur butt n sending u miles back !!

@Obli
Dude A dvance hp absorber has opt of disabling any magic spells...So gd boss skills wont wrk on us ....

i agree wid ntesh mages r best to tank god boss oz hp abs u can keep on putting it on d point is sm1 has to tank d boss nt deal dmg dats all der archers to do d dmg re........

Frst of all...Adv hp abs doesnt hav ne opt of disablin nething..its simply absorbing the damage...Period.. !

It can be freewilled.. !

I dont disagree to the point that we cant keep spammin it again n again when it wears off n keep wearin it.. !

But just thnk bout this : wats better... Mages taking N hk healing it...Or hks tanking n healin themselves n the rest doing damage frm behind.. DUH !

u dont need an IQ of 50+ to understand such a simple thng.. !
When a hk tries healin a mage in frnt of a GB...80% chances are of Hks sustaining the damages as well while healing.... in dat case...both of them are tanking it..!

I still feel its better that Hks Do it..or a class such as archers..with g9 dex on them which furthur increases the Evasion.. !

ppl...U havnt xperienced the double crits which these damned bosses hit on u...try xperiencing it ... !

Im jsut tellin u wat i hav xperienced in all...ive tried doing everythng...frm hk to Mages...But i still find archers the best class to Tank the thng.. !

Blieve me Mirage is FTW....whereas adv abs doesnt provide u with the Evasion.. !



Im just trying to tell u that its not worth it... if u guys still fail to understand that...try Everythng out urselves..ull find it out.. !!


Cheerz !!

Dude Obli,
Ruthlessrock,need, Me , ,milestone ,maverikxx had gone afk in deneru by tanking god boss for 4 hrs
we couldn't kill it though coz our damage was not enough to overcome their regeneration rate
but my point is its very much possible to kill god boss expesially god boss in deneru only mage can tank him
coz he silence us most of the time and hks cant use bor there , and i just need 1 healer their until the boss change his attck after 60% hp loss

HP by defualt of deneru boss=12640740 , i dont know if this is same in mania server
regen=40k approx per sec
if we have 5 archers who can do 21k damage max with wd then we can kill this mutant in
less than 1 hr i am damn sure unless the hp mentioned here is wrong
if u have any info abt this god boss pls let me know

YUPPP medussa ROX medu dnt forget to call me everytime u go

hey chandraluna i figured out the regen rate of deneru boss its around 40k per second
no wonder y we r unable to kill it coz we have just 2 archers hiting the boss
next time when we go we will try with 5 archers and 1 hk or 4 archers and 2 hk
