    WAR guides/resources

    Is there a good guide or resource on WAR tanking that you guys would recommend? I've been leveling WAR and I'm currently as 50 and dungeons have been a mixed bag so far. Also when pulling how do you determine if your healer can handle a larger pull?

    Trial, error, and experience. Don't be afraid to make mistakes.

    The Balance discord is the standard place to look for guides when you're starting out.

    Only one way to find out.

    The price of solving everything is everything.

    First of all, as soon as you get in an instance check your healers gear, jobs and levels.

    Usually bigger enemies hit harder and there's few of them, and smaller ones hit less but there's more of them, just by looking at the pack you can have an idea of what to expect.

    Doesn't work 100% of the time but it's pretty reliable when doing content for the first time.


    You are basically a marauder until level 70 so don't think much about that until you become a real WAR.

    Though I second the Balance discord channel. Lots of useful guides and aid from the community there.
