xD So sneaky. Many stealth. Can't see. Wow!
Roe ninjas are kinda funny to me in the sense of irony of the stereotypical ninja vs seeing a giant hulking one xD


I've had lala tanks get completely lost in mobs, so much so that I couldn't see them at all other than a floating, weaving nametag... xD which gives me the mental image of the lala tank running around the mobs feet/legs like a mouse under a cat...

That is the whole point. The mobs get so angry at us scurrying around they forget the rest of the party.

Thought the difference between Highlander and Roegadyn was Highland had like 1 more point of STR and Roegadyn had like 1 more point of VIT. Vit being the traditional tanking stat.

Seawolf Roegadyn - 267 VIT, 204 STR for Lv 50 PLD
Hyur Highlander - 266 VIT, 205 STR for Lv 50 PLD
Hellsguard Roegadyn - 265 VIT, 202 STR for Lv 50 PLD (But everyone knows Hellsguard aren't REAL roegadyn)

Really comes down to Vit vs. STR... and even so... one point? Besides... Roegadyn don't look like cavemen hit with ugly sticks.

Roe is life. Roe is love.

Probably a psychological thing. The people who naturally pick Roe would be less likely to pick the job that requires a "gentle touch."

A catgirl is fine too?

I love Roe's. As a Lalafell I believe Roe's should come with a Carry emote, that allows them to pick up Lala's and carry them around on their shoulders.

Oddly enough I've come to my own little odd conclusion about tanks in endgame raid situations (i.e. coil)...
A lot of them, and I mean a LOT of them, that do endgame raiding are either firmly entrenched in their statics or have some sort of personality issue. Or both.
I guess it stems from the fact that if you're a tank with a nice personality doing endgame raiding, everyone's going to fight like hell to keep you on, whereas a tank with a personality problem is going to be harder to work with and thus less likely to be tied down.
This was such a big problem, actually, that I leveled up WAR just to have an *option*

Of course. We have the extra lives to handle tanking, Kawaii for healing and of course our natural armament takes care of DPS...

And we all know we feel the least safe when there's a Male Miq'ote tank.
