Well, technically speaking, Vulcan is a tank due to him being a meat shield. Unlike other tanks who have good CC abilities; Vulcan relies on being able to push solo and set and forget dps pets. I've tower dove many times with Vulcan just to drop my gun turret to finish off a weak enemy; knowing full well I would be able to get back out alive. He would be a good tank if you already had a very heavy cc group though.


Herc is an excellent meat shield. Still wouldn't call him a tank.

Vulcan has very little CC. He has a slow that is very weak until upgraded, that's it. The only other threat he has is damage, and he is indeed much better built for damage than tankiness. He is almost in a god class entirely his own, that of a zoner. He cannot effectively initiate, peel, or take shots for his team. He is not exactly someone you want to lane with if you're a carry.

Yes tanks are necessary if your actually playing against a good team.

Their team = Has a tank which can distract and take damage so you cannot attack their damage dealers.

Your team = Has no one that is willing to be the distraction or take damage to save your team members.

Thats the advantage of having a tank. No need to make a big post.

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
