WorldofWarcraft.com Posted April 7, 2010 Posted April 7, 2010 Q u o t e: Could you clarify that you haven't given up on the idea that the basic tank toolkit is available to all specs for tanking 5 man instances/heroics in Cata? In other words, we could still see Frost and Unholy tanking heroics. And Arms/fury. And ret. That is still the intent. Otherwise we would make Defensive Stance / Frost Presence et al. talents and not something all warriors / DKs can do. Think about it this way: you can go into dungeons at very low levels (well DKs technically can't), and those 5 points spent in a talent tree aren't really going to make you a much better tank. As levels increase and talents become more meaningful, then tank spec starts to count for more. I wouldn't MT or OT a raid without a true tank spec. We'll have to see where the heroics end up, but at the point where you overgear them, then you're probably fine to use say Ret with a shield (or maybe even without a shield). View the full article
