The Tanker is the irresistible force combined with an immovable object. This Archetype can take and absorb all sorts of damage. The Tanker though is not totally invulnerable, but his skills allow the other Archetypes to play their parts, too. The Tanker is a devastating hand to hand combatant, and ranks only second to the Scrapper in sheer melee power. The Tanker possesses some ranged abilities, though far below the Blaster and the Defender. The Tankers proudly stand in the front lines of battle in order to protect their comrades and, of course, the innocent.
