Armor: Reduces damage taken from Kinetic and Energy damage (the attack type can be Melee, Ranged, Force or Tech).Attack types: Melee/ Ranged (can be Kinetic/Energy) or Force/Tech (can be any of the four type of damage, Kinetic/Energy or Internal/Elemental).Damage types: Kinetic, Energy, Internal, Elemental.This section is important for gearing and understanding how defensives work. DTPS won’t kill you most likely, spike damage can kill you easily. Record yourself playing, watch videos and you can also check your combat logs after the raid, be in Starparse so you can check your damage taken and death logs, so you can always see what killed you and what you can do to improve (there’s a difference between dying to a 140k spike because you didn’t pop a cooldown and you take a lot of damage in a 15 seconds window and die because healers didn’t heal you at all). It helps a lot if you know what type of damage/attack the boss will do and when, so you can avoid it. I’ve seen situations where the tank takes no damage but then takes a lot of spikes and dies. I usually don’t care too much about my DTPS, because it’s more important to save cooldowns to avoid spike damage or to save them for phases of hard heal check rather than wasting everything during phases where you take almost no damage and die to spikes.

This guide covers the basics about rotation, gearing (including tacticals and amplifiers) and abilities. Juggernaut tanks are one of the three tank classes in SWTOR.
