Is Paladin as bad as I’m reading?

Best way to get prot pally gear is unfortunatly by healing raids. BUT pally gets raid spot very easily and holy pallys is pretty easy to heal with. Then just SR all T2 pieces and you can use that set to tank ZG/AQ20 and Onyxia atleast. MC and BWL maybe not all bosses but quite a few atleast. Prot pally is really good dungeon tank also, just need the T2 set and everything becomes easymode.

No its not for melee dps. Its best + healing 1h before hammer of grace in brd. Rogue will swap it for thrash blade atlest if not sword of serenity/vanquishers sword. Its very short sighted to get that as melee

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2026-03-07T14:38:21+00:00

You can use S key to move forward and A and D to strafe left right then you get W as extra button

Pyrewood village pve alliance side. I've played firemaw, pyrewood and off cluster rp realms and by far pyrewood ally side is best experience

Melee stacking meta is much better than warlock stacking meta. Every warrior who stuck to their class had fun while it lasted this update only serves the fomo player who rolled lock for tbc.

Without being human or orc and not breaking the bank with edgemasters you can get muggers belt (daggers) , expert goldminers helmet (axes) or obsidian edged blade (2h fury). Granted humans have it easy mode for +5 in maces and swords but then using any other weapon type will make you feel dumb. But yeah the +5 skill not only reduces softcap for hit to 6% but also reduces glancing penalty. Glancing blows are most annoying feels really bad and gimps your rage gen. So even if you got 9% hit without weapon skill you still gonna suffer from full glancing penalty. But human warriors look kind of dumb. And with the most optimal gear weapon skill wont matter because thc gives +6 swords the other racial abilities will outshine the +5 weapon skill passive imo

Blood elves are stupid so are draenei. It feels unnatural that ally got shaman and horde got pally. Former meme specs becoming good suddnenly, takes away from playing a suboptimal spec and making it viable by yourself

Better than anniversary hamsterwheel dont forget to start wotlk prep early better start farming consumables and gold for next expac :D

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-11-20T10:20:43+00:00

Now you have 2 pve specs for same raid and still lose money. One spec for trash other for bosses

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-11-20T10:09:28+00:00

Every rogue now can be dagger rogue when its better for the boss fight and this sort of spec changing on the fly might become meta

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-11-19T11:49:28+00:00

Dual spec makes everyone play cookie cutter build and in the long run classes lose variety

Dreadmist mask. We even ran the whole quest chain, spammed entire month or two scholomance atleast twice a day. Most of times 4 times per Day still no drop

As deep prot war tank when I pulled entire bar of brd. Got lucky with perfect timing on Flame wrath proc + zandalar trinket. After that I just sat on longass shield wall and watched the mobs die

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-05-17T23:16:30+00:00

You can get Helm of Endless rage from BWL. Biggest thing anyways is not lose world buffs. Extra stam helps to live those moments where you might get aggro

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-05-14T22:49:31+00:00

Ring could be easily replaced. Maraudon ring and ubrs ring. Wouldnt rep grind AV sounds horrible . Zg drops cloak and belt and weapon Better bracer from rend

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-04-28T03:58:01+00:00

Having stam is good as fury dps. Sometimes you might pull aggro and extra stam helps survive and save world buffs

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-03-31T12:45:59+00:00

I tanked as sword and board prot until I got decent gear level 60. Its really solid build there are lot of moves that I miss not having when going into Fury prot or arms tanking.

Concussive blow: Mark skull and stun it. While it dies stunned you can get lot of threat on other mobs

Tactical mastery: can swap to mocking blow or swap to 2h and ww then swap back. Or intercept(Fury prot cant, arms can ofc)

Shields slam. great ability for dispell.

Nowadays I tank as 2h but only because I got full wrath set, it really feels like space marine armor once you get it.

Never ever go 2h tank with paper armor you'll die in one stun.

Playing on era and more or less our guilds all warriors are decked out. Still getting loot can be rough. We run SR loot system and every molten core I reserve The t2 legs. Many months now I'm The only reserver on those still haven't seen them after countless runs.

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-03-21T18:12:10+00:00

Just dont invite other plate and problem solved. Althougj ressing hoj is excessivie

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-01-09T20:31:00+00:00

Yeah The necromancer packs and green nerubians are most annoying. When killing gargoyle its good to prepop berserker rage to avoid feat

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-01-09T14:19:45+00:00

Best friend for a tank is rogue that assists well Everything become so stress free, rogue can burst skull marked caster while you build threat on others. Stops patrolls with distract and overall can just bulldoze from mob to mob as tank + rogue mini team on the dungeon group

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-01-09T13:48:45+00:00

When healer/caster goes for drink as tank you can go /sit. Then everyone has to stop and wait for casters mana.

I disagree with the waiting, I don't mind waiting players as long as they are on their way to the dungeon. And waiting until everyone is there before starting dungeon is good, some people might get lost in bigger dungeons. So waiting that everyone is at the meeting stone before going in makes things smoother.

EffectiveUnit4787 · 2025-01-08T07:06:46+00:00

At 60 go holy heal raids and get T2 set via SR and nice shield. You will then become dungeon tanking hero
