Tanker Stealth is a term coined by City of Heroes players for a specific tactic.  In a nutshell, Tanker Stealth means to not have any [[Stealth and Perception|stealth]] at all, and simply run past enemies in a mission towards the mission-critical objectives.  As the name implies, [[Tanker|Tankers]] can do this most easily, do to their high [[Hit Points|HP]] and strong defensive powers, however in practice any [[archetype]] can pull off a successful Tanker Stealth.
