Monster Never Cry – Who Is the Best High Tier Tank?

Reddy, Avanzo or Sarco? Who Is Better?

By Focsi.

Short Answer: Depends on your set up and budget. Also each one has different uses. But let me explain the pros and cons of them.

Some details might be wrong, as like how the True Damage or Armor Piercing works on Damage Immunity perks. Because it is still unknown how they actually work. Also not taking in count their Awakening skill tree. Only what 99% of F2P players will be able to build on them.

Reddy

Amazing tank for defensive based compositions (x2 tanks + x1 brawler)

Pros:

• Best tank on team based survivability.
• Insane damage immunity. Can go over 62% Damage Immunity.
• Applies large defense buffs and shields on himself with his skills.
• Resistant against True Damage.

Cons:

• One of the lowest damage among all tanks.
• Weak against “Silenced” debuffs.

Reddy’s Main Counters:

• Zenobia (Silence + Her ult harms the back row).
• AoE Nukers (Undine, Synder, Lilith).
• Dracula (Drains Reddy’s energy and steals his shields).

Avanzo

Great tank for stalling compositions (Avanzo + Dracula/Zenobia + x2-3 Nukers)

Pros:

• When taking lethal damage, he survives at 1HP and obtains around 10 seconds of immortality + a large shield.
• His second skill greatly lowers the target’s damage.
• He is really good at tanking certain ultimates. As “Closest” or “weakest enemy” targeted skills/evosouls. Making them miss most of the time.

Cons:

• His damage is quite low.
• Once he has the immortality, the Ultimate and third skill, once used, makes the enemy’s front row lose their aggro on Avanzo, exposing your back row.
• Even if his shields are really strong. They often will run out of time. Most of the time, wasting a big chunk of shield.

Avanzo’s Main Counters:

• Zenobia (Her ult harms the back row).
• Synder (Them mostly targets the back row).
• Dracula (He will rush past Avanzo, and will attack the back row).

Sarco

Best tank for high dps compositions (Sarco + Zenobia/Dracula + x1-2 Nukers)

Pros:

• Highest damage among all tanks. Easily can out DPS characters as Dracula or Zenobia. (Her ult does over 600% DMG + over 200% DMG to surrounding enemies).
• Her Ultimate push backwards the enemy’s front row. Sometimes even exposing their back row to your attacks.
• Large damage immunity (50%) for the first 20 seconds of the fight.
• She ignores any CC. Her passive forces her to launch skills even if she is silenced, stunned or with fear.
• She cast her second skill almost every second. Providing AoE damage and an endless source of shields.

Cons:

• Sometimes she might cast her second skill far from the enemy, missing the attack and stopping her.
• Once her damage immunity runs over, she is exposed to the damage, due the lack of defensive buffs.

Sarco’s Main Counters:

• Dracula (Because he steals Sarco’s endless source of shields. Making Dracula stack a lot of shields).
