tanking mage

I've seen a mage tank MD before.

Yep yep.

Extenders, charms, END equip and Endure can do wonders. Oh and the defense Menian set.

Anyone can 'tank' lower level KQs. It's just a matter of knowing how to do so... you need the brain. When it comes to KQs like Robo and above it's just raw HP and defense in the end... so pure brawn though it's better if that person has some brains too.

Yeah, I have seen a mage very successfully tank Mini Dragon before. Don't see it often, but they are out there.

MD's most damaging attacks are magical and M.Def is what Mages have an excess of.

As long as they have the base HP to take the breath, they'll tank ok. They're likely dead when other mobs spawn though unless they're mocked.

I presume it could be possible for mages to tank on pure end with green equipment boosting their endurance..
I got told that archers armour has the second highest amount of defence on it and so my mate made a full end archer which he tends to tank with for a bit of a laugh

so why not with a mage?

Quite common though there are only a few out there, and being one would cost a lot.
