Mastering the Tank Build in Outward

Описание: How tanky can you get in Outward? Discover the math and a setup to reach the ultimate limit!

The full build is listed here:
https://outward.wiki.gg/wiki/Build:On...

Most builds focus on Resistances or Barrier & Protection. That is not good enough when reaching Caldera. This build reaches the mathematical limit of tankiness. Enemies such as Medyse and Scarlet Emissaries will still do damage, even when at the theoretical maximum, but they will do insignificant damage.

Example
Scarlet Emissary = (5 Physical - 36 Protection) + (15 Fire - 20 Barrier) +15 Lightning * 0.35 * (1 - 100 Resistance/2) = 2.625 Damage

There is also the door open for 4 more build variations which could reach the theoretical maximum tankiness if you can figure it out ;)

Anyway, hope you enjoy the video and have a great day ^_^

Corrections:
During the Krypteia Witch fight, I ment elemental discharge doing more damage than what the wiki indicates that it should. I can clearly tank the dispersion which is supposed to deal 50 frost damage, but 8 damage goes through on the elemental discharge which is supposed to deal 45 frost damage.
The Elder and Grandmother Medyse have more decay damage on their attacks than the ethereal (i had it written down wrong in my notes). This means that there is a 5th build combination. It would strive for 100% in all resistances except decay. The highest decay attack is the Elite Krypteia Warrior (60 Decay damage) on the grenade, which means that you need 21 barrier.
