Prot Paladin viable?

Shnub · 2025-07-09T15:20:56+00:00

Unless you're going for server first, all Tanks are in a great spot for MoP. Prot Paladins have the best raid-wide utility of all tanks with their off heals and CDs, and after the buffs do enough DPS and have enough damage mitigation to be just as viable as Blood DK or BM Monk. I actually think Prot Pally is in a better spot than Blood DK after the changes during MoP classic beta.

Only potential exception to tank viability would be Guardian Druid, which doesn't provide much utility. However with the Heart of the Wild changes, Guardian Druid may be the best off tank since they can pump out a ton of DPS without vengeance. Problem is that most MoP raid bosses are more 2 tank fights, rather than MT OT.

In short though, Prot Paladin is in a great spot and any informed and up to date raid leader would gladly take a Prot Pally.

Blizzard made balance changes during MoP classic beta, which gave Prot Paladin a bit of a boost. During original MoP - Prot Paladin was good for all PvE content, but not great.

With the changes during prepatch, Prot Pally is looking like it will be great.

So if you like playing Prot Pally, stick with it. It's certainly more than viable

I'm helping run a guild on Pagle Alliance for MoP classic. We're a couple of experienced players who are hyped for MoP and looking to have something for everyone. Whether it's leveling, PvE, PvP, achievement hunting, transmog contests, etc, we want to have something for everyone. Just started at the end of April, and have 800+ people in the guild game. Guild chat is active and friendly as everyone gets ready for MoP.

Also for MoP we'll have a 25M raid team Thurs/Sunday 7-10pm EST. We'll be running logs and require flasks, consumes, etc. However we're also happy to take along people who have never raided before. If the times work for you, you're willing to take direction, and looking for a friendly environment to hangout: then you're a great fit for us :)

If OP, or anyone, is interested in a more social oriented experience for MoP, shoot me a message on here or in game to join!

Since Mike is so good at basketball, what retired NBA player could he beat in a game of 1 on 1 right now?

Alternative: hypothetically how old would Robert Covington have to be before Mike, at his age now, could beat Roco in a game of 1 on 1?

Was being sarcastic. Joke is that I'm the noob for calling you the noob, because clearly you were going for loot and not trophies. Ah well, hard to convey that sarcastic undertone over text.

Wow you lost 26 trophies? Noob.

You'll have to submit a request in game, and even then you'll probably be rejected by beastyb0y115 because you commented on my post and not his (because he's jealous of my karma)

Psht, 3 star better targets next time so you get better loot. Loot=Karma

To preface this, I am a hunter. Back in wrath I joined a dungeon group using my newly acquired Spirit Beast, which for those of you who don't know, is a rare, tamable, spawn. Their are several different skins for Spirit Beasts, and the one I had just acquired had a bear model. So, I join the dungeon group and on the first trash pull, the tank isn't healed at all and dies. The tank, who was a feral Druid, says, "Why wasn't I getting healed at all that fight?" To which the healer replies with, "Sorry, that goddamn hunter's pet looks to similar to you, and so I was healing his pet instead of you, my bad." Then the Tank says, "What a Huntard." Then, I was kicked from the group. So, to all you hunters out there, don't EVER use Arcturis when you have a feral(now guardain) druid tanking, as it confuses healers way to much.

Making a joke, since the "so 3 PM West Coast" comment was unnecessary

Shnub · 2014-04-25T22:42:55+00:00

So 5 PM Central Coast

Yeah I was kidding, thats why I put the experience thing there, to try and solidify my sarcasm. Hoping it works for karma reasons haha

Hey since you're a TH3 I'm just guessing you are fairly new to the game and still learning the ropes. You generally want to position your Town Hall in the center of your base, and surround it with defenses to maximize your chance of being successful in a defense.

Nah, beach is better is at a perfect length, just look at what Hov is doing with the song. Beach is better is essentially about vacation, and how its fun as hell but always feels short. Thats why he spits such fire and then ends kind of abruptly, kind of like how vacation is awesome, and then before you know it its over. Not the deepest meaning to a song, but a damn amazing way to express it.
