By Crom! What would a adventuring party be without the frontliner or tank? It is no different in Funcom's MMORPG Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures (PC and Xbox 360).

While The Dark Templar offers a more complicated approach to this task, The Conqueror on the other hand is more straight-forward: don the heaviest armor you can and go in swinging.

Unlike other tanks which have access to shields, Conquerors can't use them. This class tends to be a bit more aggressive, as reflected by the option to either dual-wield one handed weapons or use a slower, but more powerful two handed tool of destruction.

Both options offer a variety of offensive and defensive moves that will help you and your party's survival.

In addition to this, the class has auras which boost the abilities of each friendly allies in the vicinity. These auras range from increasing the overall damage of his allies, granting various elemental abilities to each strike, and even an area of effect aura which damages all foes that come within range.
