As someone who enjoys group play, I don't find any use in having a tank unless your count spirit spammers and minion masters. There are likely already "running" builds for assassins on PvX and stuff for speed clears.

3/10

Well one thing... tanks do not need to deal damage. Why is 4, 5, and 7 in there? Makes no sense. Also you could just go A/D maybe and go with Conviction or something for the attack blocker.

I would say because crit strike keeps crit defese up 100% so 75% block + shroud when under 50% for an additional 75% which would make for a 93% block chance I think which is prity good.

Blind and Interrupts say hi.

EDIT: Also blocking caps at 75%.

No it doesn't.

You probably read this on wiki:

The 75% block chance is just an example of two 50% block chances multiplicatively added to each other. It even says in the first sentence that there is no cap.

Yes I did, I read it on Wiki. Thanks for the correction.

Still if you get blind, dazed, and more... that build won't work good. I still think its better to just do areas without tanks.

Dont forget the armor still isnt there. A lot of areas are going to eat though the little dmg reduction from shadow form. Should block quite a bit of incoming, but still lacks armor buffage in order to "tank."

Prot spirit? But again daze/blind/interrupt need to be dealt with.

ok so iused to have blinding defense or watever in there but i need to get glyph in there the reason for 457 is to be able to keep up crit defense as some1 said. conviction might work but only 50% chance. wiht crit agility in there thats also another enchant for -5 damage reduction so you have a total of 20 damage reduction 75% chance to block and no spells can target you. so you pretty much invincible. i was testing yesterday and found out that i almost dont need 4 and 5 so you could always put in something like silver armor with zealous dags of enchanting. i was able to tank a medium size mob pretty well havent tried hm yet.

I necro this thread just to give thumbs up to the OP.

DP, SF and SoD are now the staple of UWsc, FoWsc, perma sins in general. Nice vision there man...
