Not enough tanks for dungeons!

Is it possible to add taunt spell for paladins? I know it is not blizzlike, but it is really necessary.

No.
The level of whining about bans on the forums is at an all time industrial level.

tl:dw The video points out even after druids, paladins, and then later death knights and monks became viable tank options, and even after the introduction of dual spec, there was and will always be a shortage of tanks in dungeons. Taunt won't fix the problem.

most funny is that person showing my video of me Tanking BWL vanilla as Protection Paladin.

he got confused when he was talking that warrior is only viable tank and therefore he pointed my pala tanking video :) because he got wrong there.

No. The only fix for this is for deluded DPS Warriors to stop being fucking cancer and start going Prot.

Is this even English? Anyway, anyone with a iota of intelligence knows what someone says when they say "viable". Show me a paladin tanking Patchwerk, then I will take what you have to say seriously.

The point about Patchwerk was the amount of threat the main tank would need to have to keep Patchwerk from turning around and killing the DPS. All you were was a a damage soaker, never the main tank.

That Maexxna screenshot shows 4 warrior tanks and a dead one next to you. Something tells me that image could be deceptive.

And again nothing you show proves that paladins are capable of performing just as well as warriors.

Threats? .LOL now i take you as sarcasm. Paladins does 3 times more Threats than Warrior Tank especially Exorcism yo.

Now i take this comment as sarcasm and i take you as person that has no idea or knowledge about Paladins.
So i wont bother with you about it since you would deny with nonsense.

The more you talk about Paladin Tanks the more it show how clearly you have 0 knowledge about them.

I Recommend you to first start reading Paladin section in this forum and second i recommend you to learn or ask someone to teach you how to play with them before you start talking more nonsense.

Please allow people to gather the correct information they seek before your plague of opinion infects others.

Pally are a very capable tank, though current version of deathbone set makes it hard to reach def cap. It is not needed with the tanking role a pally will serve best at. AOE tanking.

Most aoe tanking packs are level 59-61 so the def you do have will be more than enough. They make MC imps, bwl suppression room and goblin packs very and nef adds very easy. AQ 40 frankis adds and gauntlet. Naxx spiders, adds to tank pre decimate, and a few other key fight machanics that 3 warriors would.not be as good as 1 damage reflect aoe pally tank.

With select def items from all raids and help of quel proc, a pally should.be.able to.get def capped or close to it. Many bosses cant be taunted so the.no taunt = no tank is stupid. They are amazing secondary threat tanks because they do not need to take damage to get resources to build threat.

On many bosses you do can taunt, as a warrior mt i dont use taunt anyways. Any fight that could use a swap like goleman for 1 swap, have pally tank first, problem solved.

Bears have high hp low def. Bear is best against bosses that to primary spell.damage or that CC the MT.

What irritates me is somebody made a class decision based off garbage advice.
