New Tattoo idea (in General)

Tattoo of The Wall (not a Pink Floyd referance... although...)

Creates a familiar that just trains HP =D

The ultimate Meat Shield

I thought it was a good idea ::shrug::

Too overpowered, ToJs already get plenty of HP and just imagine 3x their HP...
The highest HP in the game (not including Ablative Shield because that'd take way too long for me to find) is a little over 50k, my ToJ at level 60k gives about 20k HP, that'd be 60k HP and mine is far from the biggest. And once you add AS onto that... too overpowered. Maybe make it only twice as much as a ToJ? Then it's probably not big enough for anyone to bother switching to.

Yeah, it would have more HP than a ToJ, but it does no damage, has no dex (so you always hit), take full damage because of no armor and no strength. Plus you don't get any of the benefits of the other tattoos.

Ok, lets look at three different tattoos,

ToJ, admittedly unless you're using one above your level you'll almost always be just using it as a meatshield (even Steve G's I doubt would be dealing much damage).

Endurance, defensive, how do you attack with armor? It's basically giving you more HP.

TotW, apart from anything it's an ugly name ;P but also plays the same role as ToE and ToJ, it adds more HP for you.

First of all, your looking at everything as of right now. Even my ToJ does damage, if it makes it to melee, it'll do about 3k. Not to mention the damage it does from GA. And as tats get bigger, so will the damage increase.

The Tattoo of the Wall is NOT the final name silly :p, but it could be shortened to ToW instead of TotW. Tow is a much better name after all ;)

Your ToE arguement is the best one. I suppose the difference is where the shiled is placed. Large and up front, or smaller over each minion.
