@ the lone tenno who quoted me.

The reason why the aggro mechanic was removed was due to Rhinos dying in droves. The original version of the unlimited duration Ironskin only had 800 damage cap. But even when IS popped, the Aggro still remain for an unspecific period of time.

While it was great early on, as in you actually worked like a REAL MMO tank (as in keeping aggro) in later games, Rhinos found their Ironskin to become a bigger liability apart from the CC immunity. It is even bad for ressing since everything will shoot you. And back then, things in Pluto were like level 60 minimum.

It has nothing to do with Valkyr. In fact when Valkyr was released, she only had 300 armor and DE had to buff her like hell to reach her current status.

And again, I reinstate my point, armor on Rhino is nearly worthless since Rhinos will re-cast IS 99% of the time unless they have no energy. Iron Skin now is in a pretty good spot. Allowing it to inherit steel fiber and armor will be awesome. Giving IS more survivability, which in turn boost Rhino indirectly.

And at least give players a reason to use Steel Fiber rather than stacking pure vit and pure redirection on Rhino.
