Warrior's thread

[bullsmack]

Hello i am the warrior tank Bullsmack. i wanted to first of all post a thread for tank's in our guild.

Building Threat!

*as a warrior maintank you should start with youre Mocking Blow that will not only give you high amount of threat, you will also taunt the target to focus you for 6 seconds.
*Another ability is Devistate that will stack 1 sunder armor per use. 2 stacks per use if you got the glyph of devistate that is rly good.
Devistate crits often like hell and are rly good for gaining threath.
*another ability is Shield Slam that grants you 10% block if you glyphed it and it causes high amount of dmg. myself i have critted 12k with a Shield Slam.
*And for rage dump you use Heroic strike. when a boss is on you you gett 100% rage all the time so you should be able to use it all the time "almost".
*and start build up dodge and parry for Revenge that will be able to use when youre blocking dodging or make a parry. it causes about 2-4k dmg.
*if you do all of theese you will easily gett about 8k tps or more*
* and last. never forget to use vigilence on someone. put it on either lock or hunter.

Be smart!
*As a warrior tank you got youre ability intervene, wish is good when youre tanking Dreadscale in Trial of crusader.
use it on the acidmaw tank and BAM youre imba.
*another thing to do is to always have /focus on the other tank for taunting.
*Use Thunder clap ALL THE TIME. it lowers the attack speed with 10% of youre enemy including bosses to.
*dont only focus on boss tanking, look around the area. is it something comming? should i move?.

Survival!
as a tank you got shield block, shield wall, last stand, enraged regeneration and maby a trinket.
you should do as i have, lower the cooldown on youre shield wall with 3 minutes. specc it and glyph it.
it are now doing 40% lower dmg to you instead of 60%. wish seems to be much but you can now use youre shield wall like 2-3 times in a boss fight instead of one.
gett glyph of blocking! each time you use shield slam you gett glyph of blocking wish will increase youre block value by 10 % wish means lower hits on you.
use last stand only when you gett a armor reduce or a powerfull dot on you.
use shild block so often you can.

Off tanking!
As a offtank you should focus much more on youre stats then on youre hp. a off tank takes many fast and hard hits so it is good with block value and block rating. dont fogett that defence is stacking block parry dodge and defence.
and it is more important now to use clap for less dmg. also if you have hard time on keeping the aggro or if youre pulling many mobs you should use Challenging shout that will make all enemies within 10 yards to focus on you for 6 sec.


I hope this helped someone
