    Default Tanks That Can PvP?

    ok i know this is the wrong section, but not much people look there.

    Ok, so ive been playing MMOs for a while now and i usually always play the tank class and not once have i encountered any MMO where the tank (weapon+Shield) was acually able to kill anyone.

    Most tanks in games have 0 damage output which completely bothers me where i feel completely useless in pvp.

    So my question is, Does there excist one game that is somewhat PvP oriented where the tank can acually kill someone?

    Thanks to all that reply.

    I think (someone correct me if I'm wrong) Grand Cross Crusaders in Ragnarok can PVP well.

    honor pots are like regular potions but bought with honor. they can heal at most 1320 compared to the regular pots that can only heal a max of 520. Most paladins cant out damage 1320 in 4 seconds. Paladins endgame can only pvp for 20 seconds since they get a skill that spins blades around you that do 70% of your basic dmg per second to everything. however, the skill has a 3 minute cooldown so PvP capability is limited to the point where you can only get kills every 3 minutes for 20 seconds.

    Well, I remember facing off a 50 Templar in the Abyss, When I was like level 40, Yeah sure they're really good at killing if the oponent sticks around, I pretty much just flew around taking like no damage at all.

    Most tanks can Pvp well if you have good gear. What i normally do is upgrade really BA 2 hand weapon like a spear or axe, then attack with that. When my hp begins to go down, switch to shield.

    RYL has a pretty decent PVP class balance.
