I heard that with the skill update u can no longer attack while under this enchant, can you still cast spells? offensive spells? silver armor or such?

you can still cast spells with obbi flesh you just can't attack with a weapon.

the update was to prevent warriors from using it. Obbyflesh still works just as well if not better for an ele/me tank.

The only thing that will really stop Warriors from using OF and TerraTanking is the -2 energy regen. Not sure if having a Bonder drop Balthazar's Spirit on them will provide enough energy to maintain it now, but dropping a Warrior's regen to neutral will definitely make it much more difficult.

OF was begging for a nerf the moment it started screaming out "ABUSE ME!"

stone striker + mantra of earth + stoneflesh is you best bet of tanking with ele. Throw in a bonder and I think we got a good tank. Only problem e-management may b poor with a low amount of guys hitting you. I think this could revive some form of Manlyway clears, if 'rupts arent the problem. One downside of OF tank is that it cant seperate groups if needed but im sure taking 0 damage can take care of that.
