ahh but if you wanted to go that route y not go magician?

and ofc vita has more benefits that pure life. defense is a fairly large factor in MP as im sure you know biggrin.gif

as i said in the guide tho, tweak as you like biggrin.gif

i dont like dissagreeing w/ you nate, but i gotta on this one smile.gif

gotta throw some vit on a tank character


guardians start with high vita and can wear heavy armor.
seems like a waste to do a vita build when you can just heal yourself

I thought the Vit stats were to make you able to tank as well as heal.  So it's different to a mage.  Then again, 55 Vit is a lot.

55 vita is more than enough . You need as much mana as possible to heal others and yourself in multiplayer biggrin.gif

The reason is because you start with alot more vita and you can wear heavy armors for tanking , more than a good enough reason to play this character over a mage . Guardians are a very solid build in my opinion , but adding points into vita would be a waste of stats biggrin.gif

hmm idk.

just looking at the numbers, ur looking at less than 4,000 life at lvl 70.

the question then is can you heal yourself faster than they damage you. just seems like it would be nicer to have a bit more life and defense for more of a tank character.

valid points tho. ill have to test all this stuff out wink.gif

As awesome as the Guardian appears to be, it is a very shallow character.

It is a tank healer -- played best in Catacombs, is most effective as a feeder class groupie

It will require a very dedicated player to use this char, as the GP's from Guardian will be few and far between

One problem: You've never even climbed with it, or mq'd with it. You can always assume, but I think I'd prefer a guide from someone who knows what they are doing.

No offense to you ofc bro smile.gif

Personally, I think it is fairly obvious that it is a MP character. He knows what he is doing. He looked at the base stats AND what is wearable. It can't wear offensive charms because that would make it very capable of killing.

With the limit to clubs and the poor str/dex I think you could rule out bothering with Single player(although with good items of course it can be done.)

With those out of the question, you're left with the healer slot.(obviously because of the Int and defensive charm being equipable)

I think the only thing that was questionable wass how many stats would be best to put into vit/int. Which has already been brought up by natester.

Nice guide
