The Ability and Proficiency System
This page involves the Abilities and Proficiency system, which is a core part of how Combat Roleplay and "Competitive" Roleplay works on Massivecraft. To see an explanation of general Rules, Terminology, and Mechanics used on this page, read the Abilities page. To see a broader explanation of the Abilities and Rules used on this page, read the Proficiency Page. To see an indexed list of all Abilities, read the Ability List Page.

Tanking Point Buy is part of the Proficiency System. Tanking Point Buy is specifically designed to allow a character to sacrifice all offensive capabilities in favor of superior defense, and supporting allies. As a result, Tanking Point Buy only allows the use of a shield, it in fact requires one. Tanking Point Buy Abilities require the Stance Ability provided for free as soon as a single Point Buy Pack is purchased from this selection.
