I have a meta atomic tank build. No supercharge. Can carry a whole team in elite content. They say atomic tanks are too squishy...then they run with my atomic and can't understand why I'm immortal. Atomics self heal at an astounding rate!
So after watching all five videos I know everything i need to know about tank powers. Yes i know it before i watched the videos cuz i play dcuo for a long time ... Anyways here is my personal tier list for the best Tank power FROM A HEALERS PERSPECTIV: 1. Ice Tanks - (i love u guys. u dont have self heal so if u guys do get dmg i know i have to heal. Ice might not be as complex as others but i love every ice tank) 2. Rage - (its annoying to heal because of self heal but good Rage tanks just dont die and do everything the raid requiers like activating things etc as if it were normal) 3. Earth - I dont remember a good Earth Tank, probably my memeries but I never have any complains about earth tanks they do what they need to do 3. Atomic - yes it is on the same lvl as Earth tank, but Atomic tanks are a little bit annoying cuz of self heal. 4. Fire - dont like it. Self heal is annoying. the problem with self heal is, lets say the tank gets a big hit and is down to half HP. My ounga bounga brain thinks "OOHHH shit heal go fasssst" even tho he heals himself and the whole situation wasnt even that dangerous. Reminder this is a list no one asked for from some guy on the internet that plays healer and not tank. But yeah ... i have nothing to do and i wanted to share it.
@@thisisuseless1248 normally rage cuz idk ehats wrong with them but they tank everything. Like throw them every single boss in the game and they will laugh and say "ouh that hurts a little bit" but both are kinda hard/annoying to heal. Rage more than atomic. Everytime the tank loses HP the healer will try and heal him but with rage its just normal that they lose hp and get it back so its hard to see the difference of a normal scenerio where the tank easily lives and one that is dangerous. Atomic can heal constantly and dont rely on the mechanic to get hit to heal.
wait you can heal people as an atomic tank? that's cool. obviously it won't be as effective as a full healing spec but it's still pretty cool. I like being a tank that can heal others a little.
Hey I just want to take this time to say thank you so much! I have a cr of 302 and needed this video! Most things I figured out for myself but I’m not sure how to get the mods.
Hey man my origin augments don’t look like that I have the original origin augments when they first released. Are there new and better origin augments? If so where
"eye of gemini, this is mandatory" Yeah, no, EoG is definitely not mandatory. On atomic it's the definition of a luxury item, you don't need it, you will never need it, but if you want to maximize your rotation use it.
all tanks have good pulls, earth's can be troublesome compared to others. Each will have a ranged pull and then a move that gathers closer adds to you. Will depend on what you prefer as a power or mechanic.
@@ObsidianChill I appreciate the answer very much ,however that's not what I asked I asked what tank is the best at pulling multiple adds AND keeping Them there focused on You. Not just which is the best at pulling multiple adds.
@@GoldenNamekianGlenn Keeping them focused on you is just aggro, they aren't going to wander off. Each tank has a perma juggle combo where the adds will just be knocked down continually. If you wanted the easiest tank power that can accomplish that it would be Rage.
They say density is the weakest shield in the game but I use it all the time and it holds up but if it doesn't then I just pop hard light shield which is one of the strongest. Density is used a tester, if they can't break that then they ain't shit. Most can't. Only crowds of ten or more but it still holds for a time. Love atomic
ideally no, but atomic doesn't have much choice. Sometimes it will depend on the content where having an extra shield, although its weak alot faster than the superman proc. You could also consider swapping proton remedy. At least then you could keep a shield and you don't always need the shortcut to be 12s vs 18s
@@ObsidianChill thx for reply, I’ve taken out proton remedy and replaced with density and put neutrino blast there as the shortcut instead For things like Elite content and SM this the best way to go right? The neutrino cooldown is an extra 6 seconds but it is an extra shield too but I’m not sure, never tanked with atomic before
@@ObsidianChill have Rage diffucult combos and such things? ( i watch your guide, also many videos from your but still not sure/didn´t understand) Btw what is most rare class here and needed much? (promiss thats last question, i don´t want bother you ^^)
@@amocv the rage combos aren't difficult for tanking, you just having to learn the timing to cancel rage crash. It takes some time to get used to but once you do, rage tanking is very forgiving in content. Tanks are more uncommon compared to controllers or healers at the moment in game.
Most likely it's Ice Tank from what I read. Ice has the most shields, however none of them would be extended to the entire group just yourself. You also have high def to mitigate incoming damage.
For your soda buff wouldn’t you rather have one that increases health or resto? Instead of dominance because you’re always gonna have more than enough dom

Yet…you haven’t explained what it was.
I used this loadout since Start Playing atom tank and im absolut in love... its so mutch fun and strong
For Thermo Ex, as soon as your feet leave the ground on the 2nd part of the combo you can activate aura.
Really thanks to this!!! Very detailed and helped a bunch!

Question atomic or rage witch one is better

Huh?
Fast-forward to 2024 lasso of truth and / red tornado / lazarus pit artifacts are OP
Can u do the same thing with Healing pls especially with Sorcery i really need a strong Sorcery Healinh build !
Excellent coverage.
Hey I just want to take this time to say thank you so much! I have a cr of 302 and needed this video! Most things I figured out for myself but I’m not sure how to get the mods.
Also can I take mods off to put on different armor at a later time?
Beautiful
Just curious with the buff of Laz, what atomic arti build would you recommend to be the ideal 3 now?
Wouldn't Atomic be better with power rather than playing it with hybrid?
Very helpful thx
Wearing the back mod accelerated density doesn’t stack with the 10% shield cool down from manacles.
Is this confirmed?
@@TheMilitaryVeteran yes it’s on the forums and you can test out as well
Do troll powers next
is there a trick to always combo with 'TE'? sometimes im in mid fight and do regularr attacks and dont get my aura half the time.
I’m having a energy problem I’m running out of energy too fast
You're supposed to combo with your weapons to get your energy back. It's an extremely simple concept
Hey man my origin augments don’t look like that I have the original origin augments when they first released. Are there new and better origin augments? If so where
How do you combo exactly? Cuz when I tap X one time it doesn't let me press it again.
"eye of gemini, this is mandatory"
Yeah, no, EoG is definitely not mandatory. On atomic it's the definition of a luxury item, you don't need it, you will never need it, but if you want to maximize your rotation use it.
15:16 I said EoG isn’t mandatory and that it was only used when you want to focus on regen for the group or using mass density
@@ObsidianChill oh, my ears must be dumb then, mb.
Can you swap out hard light shield for anything?
i forget the name of the artifact but it provides health everytime you use a pull,, Wouldnt it be viable?
You can run it if you already have it but it’s not worth it to level now. The setup of manacles mystic EoG will be better than Refractor
What's a good tank for pulling multiple adds and keeping them there and focused on You?

its weak numbers wise compared to others but overall tank shields are still strong in general compared to most content
when is the mental dps loadout coming?
Hhh
Are you going to do healer next or troll
controller i've already kinda covered in 2 vids for the buff troll guide and battle troll guide. Definitely doing healer but I may not do controller
Don't understand half these videos no idea what generator mods are curious why the game hasn't told me but I'll have to look it up
once you go through your journal mission about your lair it shows your base generator where you can view the mod slots
How did you get 957 skill points?

YO THIS IS MY DIEST TIME WATCHING YOUR VIDSID ANDISNDJIW D WHOW DO YOU HAVE SO MANY SOURCE MARKS
Now with superman ally would you swap density for the group breakout superman shield?
ideally no, but atomic doesn't have much choice. Sometimes it will depend on the content where having an extra shield, although its weak alot faster than the superman proc.

I new and looking for a easy tank power bc i have disablity. Can you advice this to me?
If you are looking for an easy tank power to learn look at Fire or Ice. If you want a good tank with a little learning curve look at Rage
@@ObsidianChill have Rage diffucult combos and such things? ( i watch your guide, also many videos from your but still not sure/didn´t understand)

Does this guide still work in 2024?
rotation and artifacts yes, the allies are all that are different
you doing healing next?
that is the plan
@@ObsidianChill word
@@ObsidianChill WOOOHOOOO!! LOL
Mass Density cheese? Quislet, eye, scrap?
Does anybody know if u can keep from getting interrupted while trying 2 put up your Aura ? Ty!
it wont work every time but you do have the breakout trinket you can pop before or instead of proton remedy you can use Neutrino Blast
@@ObsidianChill Thank U so much Obsidian! Awesome channel btw!
anyone, thoughts on Circe mask on atomic Tank?
what is 'elite' content?
There is event - normal and elite labeled content within Dcuo
@@ObsidianChill All of which f2p?
@@TacticFanatic0 yes, since each episode is free now you have access to all elite content as long as you are high enough CR
What Tank Power would be most similar to Protection Paladin in WOW
Most likely it's Ice Tank from what I read. Ice has the most shields, however none of them would be extended to the entire group just yourself. You also have high def to mitigate incoming damage.
@@ObsidianChill Ok thank you very much.
Geez is that possible 957 sp?
What about battle tanking?
Does movement make that big a difference?
for tanking no, its mostly a preference. Flight is the slowest in combat so I wouldn't pick that but acro is just as good as superspeed etc
@@ObsidianChill Thanks for answering my question. Great job on these guides. Have helped learn the game as a new player.
Would this be the closest to Dr Manhattan?
Quantum is Dr Manhattan's power.
Can u do celestial?
how viable is going superpowered instead of hybrid ?
For your soda buff wouldn’t you rather have one that increases health or resto? Instead of dominance because you’re always gonna have more than enough dom
Nvrm I see why you don’t use health but what about resto sodas?
@@wowdascrazy5597 resto only impacts proton remedy because the heals of atomic are mechanic based so resto has no impact on those numbers.
