[QUOTE="cjosephs1s, post: 5735079, member: 6683450"] [MENTION=85158]Dandu[/MENTION] That was the Goad feat. Yeah its not great but its the first thing that popped into my head to force a monster to attack you. I didn't see anyone else posting any ideas for it so I figured I'd throw it out there. [MENTION=6685538]Luka[/MENTION] You really need to borrow a PHB and DMG from your buddies who you are gaming with and read them. Casters don't have mana. The only manuever that kinda forces an enemy to attack you is Defensive Rebuke (3rd level boost). It only lasts for 1 round though so while its not horrible, that's not going to get your through combat. And it can still attack others its just provokes attacks of opportunity and without combat reflexes this manuever isn't very good. [MENTION=6674868]RUMBLETiGER[/MENTION] This is probably the best way to tank and so far its worked out quite well for my character. The last 10 levels we've played I think only one other toon has been attacked once due to getting a monsters attention (had some really bad rolls) using this strategy. Granted I've been resurrected once and nearly died 3 times (negative HP)in that period but that's all part of being a meat shield. I think I'm just going to build a "Tank" tomorrow and post it in this thread and then you can analyze it. I feel like we've torn up this build so much that it needs a fresh start. [/QUOTE]
