One month ago I was little more than a trash tank, when I actually got to come as prot, and last night I tanked Kalecgos and Brutallus on our first night in Sunwell. Smile

I have to thank these encounters that require multiple MTs.

My first Heroic Tanking Assignment

I was able to tank Heroic Mech, including second boss, without wipes. Very fun.

Second trip in kara, I was MT until the instance server crashed. That included tanking both Attunmen and Midnight and most of the last trash pack before them. Sure, it's not much after the nerfs, but it's still fun to do it with greens and lower level blues.

Did a 3 healer Maulgar and Gruul and then AOE tanked all of the channellers on Magtheridon. Didn't assign healing interrupts on the first pull so I ended up tanking 3 channellers, several infernals, and Magtheridon for a few moments before I decided to wipe it and DI'd a healer (only because 2 cube clickers had died and the blast nova was a few seconds away). Came back with interrupt assignments and had no problem.

Tanking all 5 channellers is pretty cool. Didn't have any warlocks on either fight, so I had to pick up fel stalkers and infernals as well.

Guild leader brought me to SWP on my paladin tonight!

Lost the roll on the sword of Kalecgos, but I got my T6 bracesrs!

If the server stabilizes.... maybe more!

did my gruuls weekly run, decided if we down gruuls fast enough to go to hyjal, ran in, smashed trash, assigned quick tank positions (t6 pally friend on hkm, warrior on olm and myself on the mage) and nailed them fast, then went to gruul and killed him right after grow 3. Decided since we went so fast to run to hyjal and bam, 3/5 down, only 1 wipe and thats on aneth since i didnt assign any heal positioning.


best quote of the night:

warrior tank on olm: "where the f*** did olm go i cant find him!?", thats how fast he died

So my guild had slowly been making our way through BT pre-3.0.
Managed to get bloodboil down before 3.0 hit...go us.
So after 3.0 we burn through RoS like the bitch it is. Seriously, didn't even pay attention to deaden in p2, i tanked it pretty much the whole time. (our rogues suck at interrupting Spirit shock)
We passed on kill mother last week because of some trepidation about the lack of Shadow Resist gear.

So this week we burn through BT, I let the B-team tanks get a shot at the first 2 bosses (raid leader is letting me do tank assignments now Smile ). RoS goes a lot smoother, warrior is doing a decent amount of threat and spirit shock is getting interrupted fairly often. So we do a gut check and go to mother with no shadow resist to speak of.

WE 1 SHOT HER!
AND I TANKED IT!

I didn't mean to tank it, I seriously didn't think I could tank it so I assigned the warrior to it. So the fight begins, warrior gets MD, and I start my rotation as normal, expecting the silence to shut me down at any moment. I'm not even looking at omen, assuming the warrior is putting out more than enough threat. The silence hits, I wait the few seconds, and begin again. That's when i hear the raid leader call out that I'm still tanking. I look at my threat, I've got more than 15% over the warrior and gaining. I apologize to the warrior, he says its no big deal, so I lay it on. It was awesome.
Sadly no pally tier 6 dropped and server shut down before we could do council. But its nice to know I'm awesome.
