Pre-raid Tanking: Theories, Goals and the Gear to Get There

Sat Oct 27, 2007 2:02 pm

Yes, yes it is. Many tankadins use Devilshark for a long time - some are even using it in BT, I think.

The badges cape that is available next patch is (situationally) better than Devilshark, IIRC.

I'd like to echo a previous comment on Boots of the Protector. These might be one of the best pallie boots in the game.

Currently saving for the recipe Smile

Is the Darkmoon Card: Vengeance trinket not considered fair game for pre-Kara? I mean, it's attainable but expensive Cool

clarification

I found this site thru the class forums, and it is amazing. Was thinking through the guide and had a question or two.

1) In 5-mans: @ +200 spell damage start gearing for uncrushable, or is it better to balance, only pushing for 490 and 102.4% when we hit KZ/ZA/etc...

2) I have not run any heroics: is it better to treat these like other lvl70 5 mans, or more like KZ/ZA

3) How much +spell damage is needed for KZ/ZA and beyond.

thanks guys, this site is amazing.

that was incredibly helpful. My main is a dwarf priest, with which I was quite familiar with all of the instances pre-BC up thru BWL. Just haven't played BC much, and never as a tank.

thanks again

I'm not sure if these...

Have been suggested yet, they seem fairly viable for 5-mans.

Sins im new a palytanking, and im wondering if Libram of Zeal http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27949 vs the Libram of Saints Departed http://www.wowhead.com/?item=24386. Isen't better with more holy dmg then a minor healing?

They're both very, very, very inferior to the Libram of Repentance.

If I absolutely had to choose one.... Libram of Zeal for sure.
