Tanks are gone in the next version, and the tank side is gradually disappearing, and the magic system will dominate the confrontation road first. (II)

How did the tank class fall into such disrepair? It's become a niche class, a phenomenon truly remarkable. It involves many factors, one of which is equipment adjustments, the so-called version bonus.

As we all know, the biggest beneficiaries of Season 40 are vampires. The spell item, Book of the Gods, significantly increases health regeneration and enhances cooldown reduction. Diao Chan and Mi Yue: Diao Chan's passive Mark Explosion grants unlimited movement and healing while attacking, while Mi Yue's entangled crows drain your blood with each beak, chewing your flesh and blood with each strike, feeding their masters' health. Despite this, spellcasters still face mana consumption issues and must find ways to compensate for them, lest they be forced to return to base due to insufficient mana, wasting time and slowing economic progress.

First Cut: Star Crusher

Players' focus is all on the magic system. This is the part that the forum emphasized the most at the beginning of the season, but no one took into account the weakening of tank equipment. The Starbreaker reduces penetration with the aim of increasing the cost-effectiveness of armor so that tanks can continue to be strong. The price is the deprivation of attack power, from being able to resist and fight to being purely beaten. The strengthening is on the surface, but it hits them hard without warning. The blow is too great, and few heroes can adapt to it. This is the first weakening.

Later it was the turn of the Crimson Cloak. The physical defense was reduced, 150 points of spell defense were added, and 1100 health points were provided. Unfortunately, the planner decided to start with the most important passive, Karma Fire, which was reduced by 25 yards. The equipment became less pure. The advantage was double resistance defense, but unfortunately the effect was average in the early stage and it was slightly disadvantaged in the laning phase.

Second cut: Crimson Cloak

The main reason why players in the confrontation lane list it as an early-game item is not because of its high resistance, but because of its passive effect of continuous burning, which helps them quickly clear the wave. The addition of spell defense, if used seriously as a piece of armor, is not enough to withstand the damage of the mage, and is equivalent to a level 2 item.

The amount of money required for large equipment is relatively high. Tanks prefer to buy two level 2 equipment first. A Molten Heart and a Ravenscale Fist Blade should be enough, but now they have been deleted. A two-piece set costs 800 yuan. Now we have to bite the bullet and spend more than a thousand yuan to buy a complete set of equipment, which slows down the economy. Can we still be strong in the early stage?
