Anyways Briton pally CL5 buffed has around 2900-3000hits and 900ish AF
how is one supposed to kill one of these beasts in melee bearing in mind you gonna get potentially 75% of things blocked and a fair old whack parried and when you do hit your looking at sub 100 damage from the AF.
ontop of that warguard, battler, ip, rr5's etc....
Is it still possible for an ekkle sneak to kill a proper capped out heavy tank?
i guess up to 3500 hp and 950 AF is what you can face if you run into a heavy tank.

2289hp/673 af (without spec AF) on frost thane with 75con/320hp/cl10, no augs or toughness.
but why are you complaining about a heavy tank bein so durable? they are meant to be like that no? espically if the pally/hero etc is in a fg with bodyguard and is a bg'er. i dont honestly see the problem. anyways archer love is inc soon, so you can twak casters for over 1k with your arrow so im told from usa sever. im sure that will keep you happy.
Nerf yer instants tbh -.-
Yeh my energy sists are neglected on shade.

haha godmode ranger melee. gratz thats a cracker.
Im thinking though rather than describing it as godmode gone.. wouldnt it be more like... well say 1 in 4 shots gets through the defense. lets say 1 in 2 so theres no arguement. I would say 100 damage is prolly a reasonable assessment of what you can hit for V 950 AF. so you would need 70 swings to kill it providing the heavy tanks uses no timers and has no SOM or WH or anything up etc (and gets no armour procs)
I would not really place ranger as godmode versus heavy tanks prior to 1.87 (in fact it was almost suicide attacking one)... but dont we have a situation now where you need the heavy tank to be afk for say 3-4 mins or just not hit you back for you to be able to win?
Im all in favour of you should be "up against it" versus a heavy tanks... but not to the extent you are praying your opponent is AFK or your toast!
maybe it wont be like that though but the logisitics aint looking good
Censi, why don't you work out how long it will take for say a pac healer to melee down your ranger. Thats even less likely. And remember as a stealther you do actually have a chance of being able to attack afk/injured/resting players.
pac healer is a group toon. Heavy tanks participate in scirmish and solo are and are historically a class that sneaks like to have a poke at on the battlefield. Just would make sense for them to be the strong favourite but not unkillable is my arguement. Im not saying they are unkillable I just suspect thats the case.

I know i'm getting 50 env and viper 2-3 next patch to have a liddul chance to take down heavy tanks.
Not sure what rangers can do, maybe spec bow and use some of the new fotm skills to pass thru their defense before going melee.
or use cowardly tictacs
