Don't Lose Aggro Give Players a Chunk Of The Game Next Month
Heavy is the hand that bears the Tank's shield. Why are Tank queues nearly instant? Join the decorated ranks of selfless armor-clad Tanks and charge through hordes of enraged enemies, taunt aggravated foes, and interrupt spellcasters with stunning strikes with but one goal in mind: keep the party alive. Master cooldown rotation, aggro management, and other tanking concepts without the hassle of schedule management or needless loot drop drama that comes with a multiplayer world. Defend NPC party members designed to emulate real-world players in three game modes: Wave Defense (crowd control and positioning), Dungeon Crawl (routing and speed running), and Boss Rush (cooldowns and execution).
Whirlwind through mobs to AoE them down, throw out a shield to distract patrolling mobs from a distance, or unleash a loud battleshout to draw enemy threat from afar (and likely provide a defensive buff or offensive debuff in the process). Wield different types of shields to specialize into various Tank archetypes, like the righteous Crusader inspired by classic paladins. Build into branching talent trees with points earned from successful runs, upgrade core skills, and mitigate damage in personalized ways with techniques like Vice Grip that engineers aggro into threatening damage numbers.
