    PLD Tip for Alex Midas Floor 1

    While running as OT. During concussion debuff, instead of tank swapping, use cover on mt and pop a cd. The tank buster should do like 2-5k to you in cover damage, depending on what cd you used. If you time cover right when the concussion debuff appears, You should be able to do the cover method every concussion phase.
    It works wonderfully, and saves the healers a lot of healing.

    I wouldn't say luckiest haha. Just about every tank i'm paired with during floor 1 scream's "I'm MT." So, i just learned to go with it, and learn what i can while ot.

    Yeah any chance we PLDs can get to use such an amazing ability is such a great feeling.

    I forget the name of the instance, but it's the one with the big ape that has to eat bananas to stop giving arena wide vulnerability stacks and damage. He has a move where he targets a party member who is not a tank and if the Paladin is quick enough, he can Cover the target and Tempered Will to keep from being pushed back. So satisfying.

    If you are with a war in A7, use cover once in a while when he is MTing and about to eat the tankbuster debuff. I told my partner to switch to deliverance while I was taking the damage and we didn't have to swap after.

    It's almost laughable at how much the tank buster does when you cover, and pop sentinel. If i don't have sentinel up, i usually pop rampart+foresight. I hope this can be transitioned to savage mode for 1.

    Just don't do this in Savage - he has another mechanic he can do instead of the tank buster that targets the MT and needs to be split with the group, but if that MT has the concussion debuff they'll instantly die. :P
