Plate classes who refuse to tank

[joeshmoe]

Why not play the class instead of bitching about it. Enjoy not having much aoe threat management pre 60 its ez mode rite, enjoy having to obtain 2 sets of gear, enjoy tard dps doing irritating stuff constantly. Then when you want to take a break and do next run as dps guess what.. eat it and tank

It doesn't matter if it's a tank class. If the player doesn't want to do it, they're not going to do it. A player playing Fury, as far as you should be concerned, isn't any different than a Rogue. You're getting damage, not a tank. Trying to force them to tank just results in you being a dick, and often results in bad tanks because the player doesn't want to do it in the first place(or isn't any good at it). All you're really losing here is Sap, and how often is it even used pre 60? At 60, how many Rogues bother to talent it?

Paladin tanks are the best possible thing for 5-10 man instances.

Warrior for raids.

If you think paladins suck for tanking the 60 instances you have no clue.

Why the fuck would anyone want to group with a tank who has to drink after every pull?

2 reason the threat is so high u dont need to spam consencrate the entire pull seal will generate a good amount of agro. Second reason is theres other classes that need to stop and drink even if ur a warrior so it doesn't matter that you need to.

Oh, boy. If I had a nickel every time I saw

Paladins are incredible 5 man tanks. Get a couple mages and you can pull 3-4 packs at once. Makes everything a breeze - consecration kiting is overpowered.

Over on ED I also rape ZG/BWL as a pally tank. Suppression room is cake with a prot, as are the goblin packs and nef spawns. In ZG I just destroy all trash as well as the spammable spawns on bosses.

Wow, you don't realise how much better at dungeon tanking paladins are over warriors because of their AoE threat and buffing. Raids? Sure, Warriors will always be the best.

i see your point.

it works in stratholme. but in stuff like LBRS u will have major issues. not to mention UBRS.
the taunt is simply missing. and BoP has 3 mins cooldown (implying u specced it).

i tested it on feenix with full rank 10 gear. + some Aq20/40 + BWL items (rings/trineks/cape )

stratholme UD = ok.
stratholme living = horror once u face the scarlets
diremaul = so so some parts are easy some are absolutly horrid to tank
LBRS = absolute horror
UBRs = i found not a party who even let me tank it
BRD = ok but that's more because of the extreme outgearing


you simply don't build up enough thread.

that sure is a lot of time spent playing your char and writing about it only to end up being dumb and wrong

They shouldn't have to if the healer is doing their job.
