What is a "tank"?

In video games, a tank refers to a character or class designed to absorb damage and protect other players on their team. Tanks are typically durable and have high health or defense stats, allowing them to take hits from enemies while other players focus on dealing damage. They often lead the frontlines in battle, drawing attention away from more vulnerable teammates like healers or damage dealers. Tanks are common in team-based games, especially role-playing games (RPGs) and multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games, where they play a crucial role in strategy and teamwork.
