I've seen my friends play it and it seems like a decent tank with high mobility, decent self heals and some good raid cool-downs. Can't say anything since I never played one. Cannot verify this so you will have to try yourself.īrewmaster monk. Heavy kiting potential and quite tanky but I've heard some players say some spells are buggy. Overall a decent class but only at the hands of an experienced player with decent amount of skills or the correct gear.īrewmaster monk. Has good raid cool downs but no Combat Res. Much higher mobility but squishy on multiple mobs hitting hard. Avoidance is better than a Paladin but not as good as Dk's and druid. No self heals till 35% health and even still useless since you will die at less than 35% health at most encounters on some abilities. Low avoidance and mobility but still a viable tank. Lacks the self heals of either DK's or Druids. With good timing, you can avoid most damage or at least mitigate it enough to survive(although not on the same level as Druids and DK's) but still a very viable tank. Protection Paladins are somewhat okay tanks here given their self heals and decent raid-wide cool-downs. Raid spells like Raise Ally and Anti-Magic Zone and Level 90 talents either stun or mass grip make life easier. The high mobility makes it very enjoyable as wellīlood Death Knight comes a very close second with its similarly large health pool, near immunity to magic damage with shell, high amount of natural avoidance and is basically immortal if you time your cool-downs right. Raid wide spells like Rebirth and Tranquility, Symbiosis are like a blessing as well. Guardian is the best mostly due to its large health pool, insane armor and self heals of a healer added with a 20% magic damage reduction at all times. Even better if you can self heal so healers can focus on the squishier members of your raid group i.e.

Hence, avoidance based tanks with a huge health pool are more viable as you can completely avoid damage rather than trying to mitigate a one shot ability. As a tank, often times you will find yourself taking insane amounts of damage that healers can barely cope up with. In any raid on Warmane if you would've noticed, boss's abilities which shouldn't be critting, crit.
