Single Tanking 10 TOC

If anyone was curious how difficult it was...

Single tanked it tonight, we had a shortage of tanks for 2 groups for our 10 man.

Beasts - Just had a dps dk taunt off me for a sec when i had 4 bleed stacks on Gormok so i could do a divine shield/cancel macro to take off the bleed. Got 4 stacks around 35% maybe. Would also work if you had a ranged 2nd on threat so you could macro bubble and get it back before it reached them.

We killed Acidmaw first, need to be sure to have someone debuff the poison off you with fire if you get the slow debuff. Probably the most important part when single tanking.

Lord Jaraxxus - Just tanked him on top of the add spawns and had melee help burn them so they didnt take a lot of aoe dmg. Healing didnt have much of an issue healing thru it

Faction Champions - Not much of a change, pretty ez

Twin Val'kyr - Got the light buff, had all dps on the Darkbane since my threat is obviously low on the Lightbane. I tanked near the dark portal and had most of the group there so they could switch quick to the dark buff when needed to burn Lightbane. My threat was so high on the dark one early that i had no trouble switching between the two


All in all not that hard at all, 1 shot everything.

At what gear level is it solo-tankable?

For beasts, remember you can cast Hand of Reckoning, THEN bubble/cancel while the boss has the taunt debuff. Saves you relying on someone else

Sounds like a good plan, twins was so easy on 25m, I can see 10m being solo tankable pretty easily.

Single-tanking 10-man:

On Gormok you can just wait until he dies to bubble.
I tank both Acidmaw and Dreadscale next to eachother and people nuke Acidmaw, it's a bit of a problem for melee.
Icehowl obviously isn't a problem.

Jaraxxus isn't a problem at all, I pick up the mistress and no one dpses it, he should die about when the first volcano appears.

You don't need any tanks for Faction Champions.

Everyone gets the light orb, dpses the dark one, stand by the dark orb. You do significantly reduced threat on the light valkyr, but no one's dpsing that one so it doesn't matter.

No idea about Anub.
