It astounds me how tanks still have threat problems after the threat and vengance changes.

I can spam devastate and NOTHING ELSE and still hold threat :I (in fact i do in 5 mans a lot when i am watching tv)

Tanking is far and away the easiest thing to do in WoW right now, and probably will be after the survivability changes (if they are still going through). Doing good DPS atleast requires a rotation, and healing can range from the most difficult to moderately easy.

Tanking meanwhile is just mashing keys when they come off their short CD's and balancing your defensive abilities.

That's why many tanks now take on maximizing their dps as well, I can reach 30k in regular heroics in blood

Of the 4 tank classes, DKs do the most damage by far.
But I can do a lot more damage now on my Prot Warrior than I could in 4.0. Back then I would do 5-6k on a single target boss, now I can do 13-14k on a single target.

To be honest, I can match it pretty easily on my prot paladin and would be feasible with my feral too... warriors are at the fuck bottom of the pile when it comes to tank DPS.

Anyone fancy levelling a character on Darkmoon Faire? Just for fun, no need for serious end game none sense.

Most of the WoW community is shit, so i'm not surprised that happened.
However, you also have to think about the fact that it was a pug.

80% of my level 85 heroic runs go perfectly smoothly with no ninjas.

Meh.

Not true.
I've seen warriors and paladin tanks do better damage.

DKs have the added advantage that their mastery scales better the worse their gear is in terms of avoidance, i can put on a full DPS set with some mastery on it and easily drift through a heroic as top DPS

[Takkuull]

Shit

I wish Blizzard would come up with some kind of better plot than Pandaria for their next game.
I really liked the three last expansion, but in such a peaceful chinese-themed area, i don't see how they'll include enemies.

The enemy is the other faction. There's gonna be a bigger focus on the war between the Alliance and Horde.

Finally got my Reins of the Green Proto-Drake!!
Only took like 3 months of getting a new egg every 3 days.

To add to this, the Pandaren are the first "true" neutral race, and choose their allegiance at the end of their starting zone.

...like the Goblins?

[Raidyr]

In the context of the game, the playable goblins are Horde.

Im game for this on saurfang preferably Alliance? Up to you what you want to do though, maybe we could do a healer and tank combo and destroy dungeons together? I can supply some gold and stuff If needed and I ownt use heirlooms so we stay at the same rate of xp. Im also very skilled got the chars/achis to prove it if you wish to see that aswell, send me a PM :)

Soloing old content is fun, druids are fairly decent @ it too iirc

Trying to level up a warrior to tank for my friends. With tank shoulders, intellect hood and cape and agility chest.

Arms is very good if you l2p.

Warrior PvE is pretty terrible in 4.3

Arms and Fury are the two lowest DPS specs (at least on Simcraft).
And prot warriors are pretty lousy in Heroic DS because being block capped doesn't help with all the magic damage you can't block.

Buff warriors.

Edited:

I just checked simcraft again, and apparently Arms moved up to like 4th place. I don't remember seeing a Warrior buff anywhere. :/

Why are there always so many hunters in battlegrounds?
It's starting to get annoying.

Anybody know where to get Cataclysm other than on battle.net?
29.99 euros is far too much in my opinion.

that sucks
