Gates open, the Deceiver is lose, thoughts on this fight?

Ossuary, you better beat SK gaming to the kill. US-KT represent!

I am sure Kungen and Mackelina are polishing their energy drinks now :)

Sacrifice of Anveena

This might give us some advantage in this encounter!

Dark Serenity's tankadin for life.

Sounds like a fight that requires a hint of Shadow Resist on

Another fight to spec holy or sit out... weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Both SK paladins were holy, they had warrior and feral tanks so yay for tankadin "niche" (aka Felmyst)...

WotLK can't come too soon -.-

Method got World 2nd on KJ

Guess what



3 warriors (fury, arms, prot)
5 priests (3 shadow, 2 holy)
2 druids (both resto)
2 shamans (resto, enh.)
3 paladins (2 holy, 1 prot) <-----
1 mage <--- lul
1 hunter
3 rogues
5 locks <--- lol



To be in a world 2nd must mean we don't suck that much there.

What it clearly means is that tanking classes are balanced and interchangeable for some parts of a fight while at the same time having niches for min/max portions of the same fight!

HOLY CRAP IT ALL MAKES SENSE! THERE CAN BE MORE THAN 1 TANK!
_________________

My GM will -never- tell me to "spec holy" for anything. If your gm does not respect your role, it's a people problem, not class.

If a guild got World 2nd with a prot paladin, it even means that we are perfectly suited in this situation.

KJ's abilities also include a raidwide barrage of Fire Darts (they hit for about 1.5K and inflict a -50% movement speed debuff) that lasts for about 15 seconds.
