In my server also all the ppl prefer more dark avengers and i hear ppl who go for da sub only cause he has the panther i dont believe that and personaly i hate human tanks cause all think that they are better. i want to go for sk whats your opinion about this and what dyes should i paint on my sk?

Whats the rates of ur server?

DA and paladin are somewhat efficient anti-mages because of their shield stun. But the mage has slow right? So do you, but it's harder to land it.

The SK relies on cubics, makes him a powerful debuffer. I say go ahead, pick sk. You will be very useful at tanking raid bosses and you are a bit offensive so you will do well in pvp too unlike other tanks. The DA is dependant on teh panther. DA with no panther means nothing. SK is good anti archers because he has aegis passive.

any other opinions?

mmm... no

pvp no dyes
solo pve +5 str +4 dex - 9 con
group pve no dyes

i am playing in a server x7 and i had a sk... is a very good char but he isn't a tank... i think the best thing for a sk is to use bw hvy for B or tallum hvy for A and use +4 str.... is very good...killing machine
