Guild Banner

In the army you have a rank called colour sergeant

back int he old days there job was to protect the regimental colours the flag
it nirmally consists these days of 1 flag beaer 4 guards and a sergent major


so in theory on pvp raids 1 tank <guild colours> 1 melle dps
4 healer/ranged dps

keep in just behind the front 2 squads with a rear guard squad protecting


if we got the extra manpower can do a box with flag party in the centre


just try it and se if it works

Seems like a pretty simple question. Who is least dps and stays alive longest? Healers need to be able to use their abilities for obvious reasons.

Yea, basically tank for sure, you can't use your abilities at all, no CC, no speed/kiting abilities, no heals, has to be the class with the most survivability based on HP and armor... tank.

You're assuming we can all be that organized in game sir.

I'm going to have to go with tank for the former reasons posted. The banner should have a brick wall attached to it ala tank.

[SpazzySF]

Tank, cause as a support character, i dont want to be healing a witch elf who runs around with the banner and getting hit once for half of their health

[Sahaal]

Tank, because I want to be the standard bearer, dagnabbit.

Ranged DPS doesn't make much sense because if they're in the back, people in the front actually fighting won't get the bonuses and they have little armor.

Healer's won't be able to heal themselves, so no.

Melee DPS would be semi-understandable if they had a lot of armor.

Tank, will be able to take a lot of hits and be anywhere on the battlefield.

I said tank for the obvious reasons but it matters little since me iz da floog bear me me i call me call long long time go

I have 2 options. 1st, Blackguard because, everyone and their brother will be going for the Flagbearer, and their mechanic is hatred. If you have like 10 people building your hatred, you can temporarily switch flag-bearer and destroy the other team.

2nd would be melee dps. Preferably the one with heavy armor, frankly because, dealing damage is less significant than healing/saving damage. Ranged dps will have less armor, and usually they can have hybrid support.

The advantage of having a melee hold the flag, is you'll have 1 more tank reducing the damage on the flagbearer.
