Its just a flesh wound. Many flesh wounds.

Is it wrong to love the alt text even more than the panels? (And, trust, I love these panels)

yeah, I've been all three classes in this comic and this is 100% accurate

Oh what a glorious day!

They are at the same HP

*remaining

Nah, tank probably has like three times as much

We smile back to the people cause if I die THEN I HAVE FAILED MY JOB (I tank my job really serious in WoW)

Tanks have two objectives: 1.) Be the first to die 2.) Outlive the enemy

He smiles one even in the face of death he smiles despite the odds for when that smile dies so do they, their the hero we all needed

Tanks are just built different. ... It's me. I'm the tank. AND I AM TOO ANGRY TO DIE!!!

they are using undying stance they got 10 more seconds to be healed to max before the 1hp is perma death in the boss fight. GOGOGO

If you aren't constantly keeping your healer on their toes by collecting every vul stack possible, are you even playing tank right?

You are either at 100% or 1% hp there is no in-between

Nahnah hes fine hes got the provoking thing going and can activate the hp regen in like 2 turns

No HP and no heals makes tank something something.

Begging people to play more than 1 rpg. I promise you there is more depth than your 1 mmo.

I've been playing Expedition 33. S'pretty good

this is absolutely not true of dragon quest speaking from terminally obsessed experience with the series

Done, I have played two. Both of them featured tanks. Good day.

As someone who's a SAM player: hey, it's not our fault we have to stand perfectly still for Big Slice As someone who's also a WAR player: lol lmao

"The only hit point that matters is the last one."

Bars

Thumbs up of a true professional. Really channeling that Fall Guy energy.

White mage: “you can die when I say you can.”

In a fight? A promise. In interrogation? A threat.

Pop the Regen and get to work

And that is why I love playing tank classes.

There is no greater glory than being the shield of your team and holding the line til victory.

Collecting status ailments like they were Pokémon cards...

Not actually fine. He's stuck in that pose.

The classic "are they smiling or is it rigor mortis setting in"

Petrification debuff.

All part of the plan.

I love tanking in ESO. I built my StamSorc Khajiit to be a Tank DPS and it’s the funnest thing ever. Rn, I’m only Champion 470, so I still have a lots of stuff to do to get my build finished when it comes to Champion buffs. But I love the fact that I can take debuff and CC and make myself STRONGER

He gave that thumbs up before the paralyze and is silently praying for a heal.

>Living Dead

FUCK IT WE BALL FUCK IT WE BALL FUCK IT WE BALL

IF I'M STILL VERTICLE I'M NOT HURTICLE

Confusion doesn't have a status message.

the chad tank just having a casual 90% resistance to all status effects

Tank privileges FTW. They revel in the suffering.

"My health is above 1% I'm fine!"

why does it say theyre frightened when: clearly not

Courage is not the absence of fear, obviously they're understand that any hit could be the last but are still fighting on

I imagine it’s one of those “the lower your hp the more resistance you have” styles so like yeah it’s low, but that last bit of hp is gonna hold out for a while.

i believe the mechanic is called something like 'gut system' or whatever, at least thats what yomihustle calls it

oh, it's just called guts

That's nuts.

Blood Death Knights be like

Isn't there a holy damage counterpart to Curse? I feel like he'd be suffering that at the same time.

relateable

He's fine, he can Regain that grey bit of HP back on his own.

I love FFXIV...

When you learn your tank is a masochist.

Living up to it name.

The state of WoW classic Sod DPS Rogue vs Shaman or Paladin tanks. (Smallest hp pool in the game vs incomprehensibly high evasion/mit)

Don't worry, they have DRK's Living Dead ready to go!

The only thing a good tank fears:

"My invuln is up."

The Tank, having to take an attack called "Intestinal Crank" to protect their teammates

Do not question the tank

The only hp that matters is 1. WE RIDE!

As a healer main i love people with that mindset

PROTECTION WARRIORS WHERE YOU AT.

I feel seen

Terraria:

My boy is rooted too?

That's why i like being the tank! Come and get me hahaha!!

Afflicted with every ailment known to man. Set upon by fiends at every turn. Within a hair's width of dying. A tuesday. Not even bothered.

Living Dead + Healers adjust + ratio

the DRK experience

👍 Tanks are a different breed. And we love them.

This is why I love regen tamks. Long as I have some I have enough.

Will still easily outlast the dps regardless

"Cleric/healer how about you?" " Oh, I'm just here healing and stuff." lol

It's all part of the strat

As a healer main, I’m surprised the dps is staying close

"Leave me low, that's when I'm at my strongest"

This doesn’t look good

Tank life

Bro's also rooted and burning 😭 Absolute legend

he's COLD and he's Burning 😭😭😭

the 4th place I've seen this and its still super accurate

And he still has more health than any of us

We need more ultratank gameplay where the tanks have tens of thousands of health compared to some variation of 100 on other classes

Now that reminds me of titanfall 2 and how titans would eat up 15 mags from a pilot unless an anti-titan weapon like the railgun or rocket launcher is used or a battery is hijacked

I paid for the whole health bar ass tanks

Listen. I still have enough Mit to survive a few more hits, and I have an Invuln. I'm not asking for your Benediction until I'm SPENT.

The minimum amount of HP a tank needs is 1 😤

Slamming this so hard I break my gamepad

I was thinking the same thing XD

That which does not kill me... describes most things.

Tanking in overwatch

You never feel more alive than when you're riding the adrenaline high on the verge of death.

Being a tank druid in dnd has made me seem like a monster to the rest of my party. I'm the liquid metal terminator.

he's aurafarming

I'm really surprised they aren't immune to frightened

I'm learning warrior and I did have the very thought yesterday "ope, under 25%, maybe I should let one of the offs take some heat? Wait, no, that's DPS brain"

As a support main, I love this 😜

Healer, what, if anything, are YOU doing?!

they haven't popped their ogcd full heal yet, the plan is proceeding as normal

Rezzing the DPSes who didn't make the check obv

All for you, m'lady

he actually gets a defense buff at low hp so hes chillin

Raw Intuition is off cooldown, I'm good

Tank Probably: Is that all you got, I can still see! *Gets blindness Debuff*
