Armor Approach

Full heavy armor. A shield is mandatory — holding it up blocks incoming arrows outright and is the archer's hard counter. Survivability comes from good directional blocking, not just stats.

Passive Perks

The Gamezebo "Tank/Aggressor" loadout — built for high survivability.

Playstyle

Soak hits and hold the line; let DPS work behind you. Keep that shield up against archers.

FAQ

Is the tank only for group play?
No. Gamezebo frames the Tank/Aggressor as strong "in 1v1s, but also in team fights." High survivability lets you out-last most duels.
Do I really need a shield?
Yes. A raised shield blocks arrows entirely, which is what makes the tank the archer's counter. It also enables Shield Bash and reliable directional blocking.
Which stat is the priority?
Constitution — it drives HP and damage reduction. The spread is STR 185 / CON 275 / DEX 80.
Stat numbers are pre-relaunch (Feb-2023 reference guides) — the archetype logic holds, but re-verify exact figures and passive levels vs V1.5.0 and the build calculator.
