Has anyone ever tried 11/31/7 for Raid Maintanking?

I'm talking about http://db.vanillagaming.org/?talent#sxVzbZVhxIxzVoV0b

Never tried it myself, as am only 46, but seriously! LoH is basically our Shield Wall, and not only does this allow us to use our big Oh Shit button a third more often than Warriors, but it applies a dmg reducing buff that, although falling far short of Shield Wall, lasts a helluva lot longer.

Yeah, you'd give up 2% Parry to have it, but it is my understanding that no Tank even needs to be uncritable until AQ40. Could the 2% Parry be made up from gear by that time?

What do you guys think? Might it be worth a try, or is Imp LoH best left to the Healers?

Theloras and Killerduki, I'm looking squarely at you.

Interesting , 2 points on Lay of Hand i never tough about .

You can give a shot for that ;) . 2% less parry in Current Patch / Raiding Content mean nothing since stuffs here except Golemagg,Chromaggus are in favor of "Fire Breath" , "Curses" , "Debuff" , "Slow attack" .

sadly there is no good gear to cover that 2% parry and the reason why it is set in our talent tree.

Worth to give a try in you combo , i'd like to hear further from you about how effective would be.

Bloodlord and Chromaggus enrage i think will be Best for your "Lay of Hand" .
Bloodlord = Because it's all about "Armor Reduce" and "Fire Resist".
Chromaggus = Because enrage Damage will be highly reduce by "Armor" .

I'm sure you mean Broodlord, and not Bloodlord, correct? I'm Not trolling, im just reading and thinking "Wait ZG isn't out yet, wait We dont need FR on BL, wait he has to be talking about BWL since Chromie was mentioned.
Also why do we need fire resist on Broolord again?

I stand corrected = Broodlord that does High Melee dmg combined with Fire Damage.

He does a Blastwave / AoE Knockback similar to the Scholomance Handlers (in the undead dragonkin room). It is fire based and does quite a hefty amount of damage.

Possibly the most problematic attack that Broodlord has is an ungodly Mortal Strike that he will do frequently on your Main Tank. This can crit for up to 8000 damage on plate.It also leaves the MS debuff that reduces healing, which is Not Good. It is recommended that priests power word shield the tank when he applies the MS debuff.
