I bought a wolf and wanted to use it to tank giants for me. In partys it worked almost every time when there are multiple players attacking one mob. But when i'm soloing and let my wolf attack the mobs first, then go berzerk and cast firebolt, the mobs goes for me! How can I make sure the giant will attack my wolf all the time?
Well, that's my question. Thx for good replies in advance
My general strategies against a giant as a wiz:
Wiz/Bard: Get your wolf to attack the giant until the giant has 2/3 HP left ( use pet portion if necessary ). Then attack the giant. When its hp is near 1/3, fear it. If it works, nuke it till death. If fear does not work, then giant will turn towards you when its HP is less than 1/3. Erect an earth barrier, and continue nuking. Prioritize the Earth and ice nuke so as to dul/freeze it ( be careful if there is any monster around ). Use vigors when necessary. It should go down very quickly and its relatively safe ( so long as the big thing do not crit ).
Wiz/Cleric: Bless spell, then nuke it to death. Cycle yourself if needed. This is too easy.
Wiz/Lock: Do like wiz/bard if you do not have your lock side farmed. If yes, then turn to lock, debuff, dull, DOT, nuke it. HP leech now and then. It should be easy.
If PT Giant, then run. You could tank it with cleric or warlock skills, but its not worth the time, effort and risk.
