AlbionMall opinion about Offtank / Bruiser
I like a similar playstyle to you I think, sort of Nasus/Udyr/Mundo type gameplay(haven't played in 4 years)
I've been toying with a few different builds that offer a lot of what I think you are looking for.
Build 1:
Helmet: Guardian - Emergency Heal
Chest: Mage - Ice Armor
Shoes: Soldier - Shield Sprint
Weapon: Great Hammer
I find this build gives me a lot of damage, while still having a comfortable amount of CC, mobility and tankiness.
Build 2:
Helmet: Assassin - Howl
Chest: Assassin - Invisibility
Shoes: Stalker Shoer - Motivating Pain
Weapon: Greataxe
This build offers me a lot of burst damage, a lot of sustain damage and just enough CC/Mobility to call it a day. Invisibility -> Heavy Smash -> Howl -> Whirlwind is pretty sickening.
Build 3:
Helmet: Assassin - Meditate
Chest: Graveguard - Soul Chain
Shoes: Cleric - Blink
Weapon: Polehammer
This build offers Blink+Stun+Burst as well as Soul Chain and Meditate for more CC/Cooldowns while being super tanky.
I haven't really decided what I'm doing with myself yet. It's a hard life.

Nothing i suggested is a total overhaul or rework to the core ideas of albions
albion would be a much better game if all the cooldowns were between 1-20 seconds. people want to use multiple skills and have there skill as a player shown.
