In PoF mobs are just generally weak especially when you compare them to ToV mobs.
PoAir I think all mobs are too high lvl.
PoFear I'm not really sure tbh.
Did PoAir and the mobs at the zone in are dire charmable and hit for roughly 4k on a normal mob. Mob is a Paladin-Type
PoFear mobs are charmable but got DT'd before I could check mobs output.
Bringing it up to 73 would be great so I could get a Warrior / Melee type pet instead of the caster type I usually end up with.
Well regarding DC i woudnt suggest using DC pet in Fear alone out of the reason alot of stuff dispells.
In PoA are better mobs target for DC than the ones you can find at zone in and i didn't realy used my chanters donor much actualy till i came to PoA most stuff before either lacks the dps due caster mobs or are just to weak to be worth to use as pet.
Regarding using Monk as tank i am unsure how far you will be able to go that way either due lack of threat generation or due lack of survivability but don't quoute me on that one.
Regarding my setup.
Paladin
Cleric
Shaman
Chanter
Bard
Mage < just added
Pro: Have access to best buffs and dont realy need rely on Sune buffs or other players made this setup in mind to outlast.
Con: Single target kinda lacks dps.
I did make a Warrior; just doing AA's and stuff that he needs in order to be a actual tank.
Like I said in my first post it isn't that my monk can't tank. It's that I lack the DPS to down it before my Cleric runs out of mana and needs to orb. Earthwalk doesn't last long enough to cover while he clickies.
Another big issue like you mentioned was aggro generation. While I never seem to have the problem with other players stealing aggro; my rogue bot with the ntov deaggro weapon proc thing would pull aggro instantly. Didn't matter if I had the mob at 50% than used him or at 99%. Which really hurt my dps.
Right now the plan is to do:
Warrior
Cleric
Enchanter
Monk w/ RogBot
Zerker
I know the Rogue Bot will never do as much dps as a Ranger w/ Donator on Autofire but that's one less class I have to box and worry about. I'm not sure if its my lack of skills or lack of experience but after 5 boxing last night it wasn't.. enjoyable. It was do able but I will say thank god for Call of the Hero items.
