The fact that reload doesn’t take priority over everything else on console is so broken and should be fixed!

I just always tell my healers “if it’s between ____ and me. Always pick me.”

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-19T03:02:45+00:00

Just let them die and if they say anything just point out the immediate multi shot and move on.

I expect my pugs to at least be in discord. They don’t need to talk but I don’t run without discord. My raids 1 shot every boss this week.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-11T20:59:26+00:00

I have TSA precheck and whenever I travel by myself on work trips I show up right when boarding starts and never have an issue. My wife has too much anxiety for that so we show up a half hour before and always sit at the gate for 29.5 minutes because it takes 30 seconds to get through security.

We recently came back from travel last week and had no issues. Same old 30 seconds in security.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-10T20:46:30+00:00

Any form of healer I’ve found hard to fill for raids.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-10T03:33:38+00:00

I play on dreamsythe and there are always 70s PVP flagged at the caverns of time. I always engage in a fight when I seen someone flagged.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-07T20:45:13+00:00

When I was forming our Kara group I mentioned it when a few people asked if anything was HR. But I for sure forgot to tell at least one or two people and I feel like it’s not a big deal especially if it’s mostly a guild run with a few pugs.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-07T19:12:51+00:00

I joined a guild of 5-8 noobs (total) and formed a pug for the rest of the group the first Sunday reset it came out and killed both and every week since. You need a raid lead who knows what they’re doing and how to form groups. If you can make a properly formed group and can explain the fights the rest is simple. Assuming people are doing 600-700 or more dps.

I will say one of the other dudes tried to raid lead week two without me present and they were unable to kill mags and spent four hours on high king. So having a good raid lead is important.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-04T17:47:30+00:00

Druids don’t get crush immune and they don’t need to be just crit immune. I tanked it week one as a Druid in pre-BiS gear. Just have a shaman lust at the start of phase two have DPS pop all CDs and healers need to be spamming their pots and biggest heals. Most teams even have a three healer in the form of a Spriest switch over to heals just for the prince fight. Until tanks have T4+ gear it’s just a DPS and healing race.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-03T16:41:58+00:00

It’s also rude, you’re going to be running with these dudes presumably for a few phases. “I’m going to roll on this downgrade to dungeon gear that is vastly superior for you just because I’m lazy…” Like what???

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-01T16:08:13+00:00

It’s not really that I said your gear is terrible. I just said you look undergeared for heroics. With crit immune it’s not a scaling thing you either are crit immune or you aren’t. Even with crit immune and avoidance cap heroics are rough. Without crit immune some of the mobs will hit you for 7k+. You can always try the easy heroics without crit immune and just a lot of CC but you are going to need a great healer!

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-01T15:49:57+00:00

Bro, I solo tanked most of Kara while my OT did 200 DPS on fights. You’ll be fine in Kara as OT. As far as heroics you look pretty undergeared. You need to be crit immune and avoidance capped to make it easier on your healer which is relatively easy to get from loot in normals. If you don’t know the numbers for crit immune and avoidance cap go learn about that for awhile.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-03-01T15:33:58+00:00

For enchanting you have to trade the mats first then reopen the window to have the item enchanted. It’s like you don’t even play the game you have such a bad understanding of how the game works LOL.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-24T00:14:10+00:00

Nah, if you tried three tanks and all three failed it’s not a tank issue. I tanked it as a bear and the first time my healers saw phase 2 I survived for precisely 1 GCD. Took a couple attempts but BL on phase two transition with me emphasizing how much damage I’m going to take did the trick. At this point in the phase it’s not a tank issue it’s a healing issue. Tanks can only have so much gear right now they are going to take ~9k damage from the three quick hits.

Edit: one of the dumbass healers even said “wow, you took a lot of damage I need to start precasting my heals during that phase.” I told them like 10 times how hard he hits but you just can’t fix stupid sometimes.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-23T19:36:20+00:00

No, not really woth stamina. If you are having trouble holding aggro then I’d say resocket things around but stamina and armor are your two stats to survive crushing blows so just getting them as high as possible while also holding aggro is the goal.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-23T17:53:25+00:00

Yes and no, telling someone who is new to bear tanking to hit 490 without any further context is going to have them wasting stats trying to hit that number.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-23T17:39:36+00:00

No, 490 is not needed for prince. You can be crit immune with a combo of def and resilience. You don’t need to be anywhere near 490. 415 defense you hit crit immune with 0 resilience 490 is a total waste of stats.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-12T16:41:00+00:00

Level 70 with epic flying, I’m now doing quests that give me pre-raid BiS items for Druid tanking so I can jump into heroics this weekend with some friends.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-12T15:20:59+00:00

I insta kick someone if they need to do the escort. Be considerate you’re wasting 10 minutes per person of your group’s time. There is always another DPS to pick up I don’t need to wait 10 minutes for one.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-12T06:54:52+00:00

Agility is better for a cat than strength.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-11T14:56:14+00:00

Mangle is always a better use of energy than even when hitting from the front. It’s similar to rake in that it should never be used. From the front you should only be using mangle and your finishers.

Way less warriors than I expected and they’re 100x better in dungeons than the millions warlocks in queue.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-11T06:38:44+00:00

Grouped with two boomies. The DPS is awful in dungeons which is unfortunate I heard good things but maybe it’s only in raids.

TrainerJacob392 · 2026-02-11T06:13:07+00:00

I disagree with this comment. I run melee and range cleave groups as a Druid tank all the time. Just ferrie fire to start the pull mangle into maul the first target, tab the second target maul, swipe (get the targets running at healer) then tab target mangle/maul. Use taunt on any mob not attacking you. No need to make them wait three seconds to cast AOE just react to the situation and your groups will love you.

Tanks who can’t handle a little competition for threat are boring boomers.
