So after 3.0.2, Pallies got our buff, some OP more than others, sorry for the bad comment retadins, but I've had my faced handed to me by single retadin while in massive mitigation gear. Anywho, for all my fellow tankadins in the guild, I pose the question to you, how is your threat generation? Personally, I've seen a significant gain, but I've been curious if anyone has not seen the boost, and if you haven't, let's see what we can do to help you out with your threat rotation and equipment to get it up to speeds that will make warriors and druids QQ. Sorry Metals just had to.
So to make it easier to figure things out...
What are you using as a Main Hand weapon?
What is your current build? (probably best to just link your armory)
What seal do you use to MT?
What seal do you use to AoE Tank?
What Blessing do you normally run?
Anywho, if you questions, issues with tanking or anything else, reply to this tread and I and hopefully others will do what we can to help you get the most out of your Pally. [ image disabled ]
I definitely like the change even though I seem to have to apologize to Metals allot for ripping threat right off him, o well. Once I spec back to prot I will be able to fill in all the info, with this week of raiding I would not have been able to go unless I speced holy. But I notice that depending on what I am tanking my threat runs from 800 to 2500 TPS mostly depending on the length of the fight usually mobs are dead before omen has a chance to figure out what is going on so I get ?? allot for my TPS How you race is not important, but how finish is critical
Improved Kings or Sanctuary depending on what I am doing
I am currently trying to experiment between using executioner and mongoose to see which enchant helps sustain the highest threat. How you race is not important, but how finish is critical
There is a subject that has been bothering me since the patch came out. now that bosses no longer deal Crushing blows I have had some tanks tell me that they do not need to cap defense anymore. so let me clarify for anyone who is confused.
At least 490 defense, which is the minimum requirement to be "uncrittable"
At least 102.4% total avoidance/blocking with Holy Shield, which is the minimum required to be "uncrushable"
This means "Yes" you still need to be capped for defense which is 490 you just no longer have to spam Holy Shield or worry about being crushed if it is not up even though it is still good to use it as much as possible. How you race is not important, but how finish is critical
wow i guess i should come to the forums more and not just look around on it while server is down and eydo just so u know now idk if u still look at this but i made the switch from warrior to pally huge difference
