Was very excited to play this tank as it came into the expansion looking like it would be far more durable than its SL counterpart but as they keys get into +16s, +17s and pushing higher its starting to feel like such a battle to stay alive. Being forced back into kiting to make up for the squishiness and gaps in its much needed mitigation is not something I’m particularly happy about where other tanks are able to handle the damage with ease and are far less punished should they mishandle their mitigation or big cds.
On top of that are the snap threat issues it seems to have. Holding fel dev cd for the sole reason that it’s the only thing can stop threat being ripped off you when pulling a new pack and having to save a shockig disclosure potion for certain bosses/packs because immolation aura and sigils is not enough threat generated doesn’t feel great either. It feels like as a tank it’s almost there as a viable mid range pick, but just needs a few numbers tweaking, mainly to its survivability or something extra to help it out coming into a new pull with no resource or frailty stacks where its prone to falling over.
Also a build where we can talent sigil of chains without outright trolling would be nice as well! Was one of the main reasons I mained it in the first place was the utility it had with the sigils and feels weird to have lost half of that.
