	A tank's job is to be at the top of every important monsters hate list. [[Barbarian]]s are especially good at this, having lots of skills that annoy monsters out of proportion to the damage they do (flesh realm). However, some monsters (mainly those with magic attacks) are more easily tanked by a [[wizard]], [[psychic]], or other Arcane Armor wearer.		A tank's job is to be at the top of every important monsters hate list. [[Barbarian]]s are especially good at this, having lots of skills that annoy monsters out of proportion to the damage they do (flesh realm). However, some monsters (mainly those with magic attacks) are more easily tanked by a [[wizard]], [[psychic]], or other Arcane Armor wearer. A [[seeker]] will frequently work for both physical and magical damage tanking due to their high def level, but will generally lack the ability to maintain single-target aggro with an evenly geared squad.

	Tanks should have a high defense and lots and lots of hitpoints. One useful trick is for the tank to already be regenerating health before the monster hits them. Ironheart Blessings are great for this.		Tanks should have a high defense and lots and lots of hitpoints.

	:Roar is AoE 'taunt' which works similar to Flesh Ream, but doesn't add any damage. DDs or even a healing cleric will be able to steal aggro soon if you don't get more hate from mob.		:Roar is AoE 'taunt' which works similar to Flesh Ream, but doesn't add any damage.

			:Blood-thirsty Blitz is a rarer seeker skill (obtained through [[AEU]], L100 requisite), but once obtained generates massive aggro in a wide aoe while dealing notable damage and draining health.

	As a tank, you should always keep one eye on your team. It often happens that someone unintentionally pulls some monster, and you are supposed to help that person. Otherwise the monster will kill your whole team, one by one.		As a tank, you should always keep one eye on your team.

Bramble reflects damage, so if a squishy player is attacked bramble makes it harder for them to lose aggro. (There's a huge debate amongst players on who should be brambled and who shouldn't. Some clerics and arcanes in general love it and some hate it. The contribution to aggro that bramble adds is much less in comparison than any attacks made with the caliber of weapons people have these days. If you're ever in doubt, ask first.)
