BLM36/WHM18 MAIN TANK...HUH???Follow

#1 May 03 2006 at 6:10 PM Rating: Decent
So I get a /tell from Barchiel, who I see posts on here from time to time, asking me if I can tank. I'm thinking he might have mistelled me so I say "LMAO" twice and then proceed to tell him that I am a 36 BLM. But he was serious. He actually asked me if I would be willing to main tank in his party at Garliage Citadel. Now he was a 32 COR, so the level gap was 1st of all going to be 4 levels. Thats bad enough, but to ask a taru blm to tank? I said that he must of been joking, and then he proceeded to call me a noob and that I can nuke for hate and stay alive by curing myself. He also suggested I sub SMN to use carby as a tank. HUH?!?!?

So my question is, am I in the wrong here for not accepting his invite? I have actually leveled blm to 75 once before, but due to my character "Gus" being deleted once long ago, I am relvling it back up slowly. In my 75 levels of BLM I have never really tried tanking an IT, lol. Especially as a taru. AND especially at level 36 with no blink or stoneskin available at that level.

Barchiel, what were you thinking? Who is REALLY the "n00b" here as you called me?

I am talking about the Rank 10 Barchiel, currently a COR32 sitting as a pty leader in Garliage Citadel as of 7:33 PM EST....yes, I thought it to be odd myself....perhaps a little brother or something is playing on his ID?

Dude, BLM/SMN is a good tank. Nuke to get (and hold) hate and when things get rough, let Carby back up tank for you until you get MP back. As long as you keep Ice Spikes up, you're good. Almost as 1337 as SMN/WAR tanking,

As for me Corsair, yep ye found me. But I was also found marooned in the Dunes.

Awww cmon you guys.... ANYONE that knows Barch would know that he's just bein a dumbass lol. I do stuff like that sometimes to people and they're always like "wtf..blah blah blah." I usually talk to my LS members while doin stuff like that and they always get a kick out of it.


Way to go Barch, Blm/Smn tank ftw lol ^_^

Ya know, I just realized you took a pic of your TV instead of a screenshot. Was wondering why the text was blurred.
#13 May 04 2006 at 7:02 AM Rating: Decent
Indeed I did, lol...I couldn't figure out how to screenshot the text so I was frantically searching for batteries around the house to power my digital camera, took the pic and then was frantically making a website to post the picture. It was quite a fun ordeal, lol. I'm not very good with computers, and I'm sure there was a simple way of doing it, but that was the only thing that I knew how to do at the time, heh.

Bar you are awesome!

Invite me to a party with my blm 37 one day

It sounds like a pretty fricken dumb idea

You gotta show me how to do this I would laugh my *** off.
Big problem with keeping hate with nukes is that they cost alot of MP and they would get interupted alot right? Anywayz I love breaking the cookie cutters...i'm workin on my whm tank skillz biotch. Whatch out! White Knight on the Loose!

Barchiel you're nuts.

Only problem is if you have carby out you can't rest for MP so unless you've got a RDM refreshing you or bringing your own drinks you'd be pretty well stuck.

I don't think carby as a sub would last too long either :)

You'd probably have a better job (although less MP) going blm/Bst, at least you can rest with your pet beating up on the mob.

That is of course if your pet can ever get hate back from you nuking your pray to death or you even charming your pet (I have not tested out blm/bst yet, chr levels can't be that high for a blm.)
