@Marceaux: It does indeed have a cd. Even with the cool down Pally still can guard/block attacks while we can only tank actual raw numbers.

[quote=ajwright92]Pally. It has the hyper skill where it doesn't even get hit.. along with guard/block chance. To add to the madness any dmg they tank is lowered anyway.

Demon avenger tanks only because of its HP being so high.

Idk what bind has to do with being a tank btw am I missing something?[/quote]

well the hyper skill has a cd right? so it can't be always accounted for
while a da always has its hp

Because damage reflect can be avoided easily if you know your timing and bind accordingly, since OP was asking about tanking DR

Paladins:
10% damage reduction when all elements are stacked
250% defense and 40% guard rate with shield equipped
30% damage reduction with or without shield
Automatically blocks 10 attacks every 30 seconds
20 seconds of invincibility after resing someone
The ability to drop monsters' attack and accuracy stat by 30% (50% with the hyper)
600 bonus defense
50% status resist with shield equipped and charges turned on
Hyper Skill that makes you invincible to everything except the 5 or so things that can hit through it (also makes you immune to DR)
TWO skills that bind DR
EDIT: I almost forgot. We can heal ourselves. lol, potlock.

And those numbers are slightly wrong, since a few of those defenses get STRONGER with CO turned on.

DA has alot more hp, but pally takes less dmg per hit, making them "tankier"

I can tank DR (60k hp, max it does is 50k) but then again i can either Sacro through DR and not get dmg or
the most important thing, we can magic crash it.

Anyway, pally's are the tankiest of them all, surviving 100% hp attacks when divine shield is up, Thats more
important than surviving any dr which can be timed.

[quote=MedicalStudent]Pally with a shield its like godmode. lol[/quote]

They don't even need a shield anymore for the defense boost after their most recent revamp.

[quote=Marceaux]Yeah I can survive dr
it only takes like less than half of my hp

can paladins tank dr?[/quote]

Any class with enough HP can, correct. (levels of funding varying)

[quote=cris1000]I think demon avengers have so much HP, that they can tank damage reflect.[/quote]

Different bosses hit different amounts for damage reflect, just so you know. It isn't one set hp count.

Taking that into consideration, I could also say that I know some dual blades and dark knights that can tank DR f3.

pally

I find that DA skills drain too much, but then again, I probably play incorrectly. I know for sure pally has amazing def though
