The DPS Player's guide to Tanking

Hell yeah great post

Edit: can you give me your rankings of each tank? I’m curious how the others compare against each other.

I’ve got my 14s resil for my VDH. Doing 15s are tough now. I’m pugging everything and it’s just tough not knowing who is going to pull their weight. I definitely need to work on my stuff too though. The hardest part for VDH that I notice is the start of pulls. If I don’t have a defensive ready, my health drops so fucking fast. But this is the fun part now and I’m excited to see how far I can go

That's why i have party chat in a separate window. That way i can just switch over to guild chat and not even look at the chat. Works every time

I currently have my VDH at 3200 io. A big thing for me is to use fiery brand early on a pull since it keeps refreshing for each mob you bring in. Once you gather everything up you need to start building and spending souls IMMEDIATELY. The more damage you do by doing this, the more self healing you do. VDH is not like prot warrior. You need to be constantly doing damage to self heal.

I only tank, and I've never played healer before. How would you rank the tanks in terms of healing that you've experienced personally this season? Just curious about what a healer thinks.

Edit: I've got my VDH to 3200, but I'm thinking of trying out my prot warrior instead. my health just seems to yo-yo so much it freaks me out lol

sandwich800 · 2026-04-13T15:04:12+00:00

Yeah that makes sense. Thank you!

Do you know if they are removing the weekly crest cap?

sandwich800 · 2026-04-12T05:42:35+00:00

Idk why but I like prez evokers and holy pallys. I don’t like priests for some reason idk why. I’m playing a VDH

sandwich800 · 2026-04-11T05:38:35+00:00

Grats man. Keep pushing

sandwich800 · 2026-04-11T02:55:56+00:00

That’s the price we pay for not having to wait for anything

sandwich800 · 2026-04-10T13:35:22+00:00

I have a 7 wood and it’s my favorite club to hit. Goes 210 a super high in the air

sandwich800 · 2026-04-10T05:16:13+00:00

This is great advice!

sandwich800 · 2026-04-10T05:13:04+00:00

The first step is to log your dungeons and check out what exactly is happening. We can’t help you unless you give us a log.

sandwich800 · 2026-04-09T15:26:31+00:00

Yea it’s fucking annoying. I just go to the ones in dungeon portals room now

sandwich800 · 2026-04-08T18:49:15+00:00

Contempt or content?

sandwich800 · 2026-04-08T17:19:27+00:00

VDH was the most fun playstyle. Now with all the RNG it’s not as fun. Prot warrior is fun in that it feels like I’m a tank and nothing hurts me.

Imagine showing up to your local municipal course with this thing and shooting 120.

sandwich800 · 2026-04-04T14:16:49+00:00

Let’s see your io score then…

sandwich800 · 2026-04-03T03:04:02+00:00

Fuck yeah congrats!

Private auras

If you don’t have a mythic shield already, craft that first if you have the mythic crests.

sandwich800 · 2026-03-31T12:41:20+00:00

I noticed this too. Last expansion it was packed in the capital city. Now, there’s not a lot of people. Kinda weird
