Battle of the MB Tanks!!

It's sort of a loaded question. Generally a DK can be a better situational tank but day in and day out the pally beats em' silly. The new warrior is quite sexy however.

I'd love to roll a Death Knight to tank for my MB team, but the paladin looks to be unbeatable even if all else were equal due to its buffs. Do DKs get any good buffs? Warrior shouts are absolutely terrible for casters compared to paladin blessings.

Warriors are not buffbots, we can do one of 2 things, give melee 300 attack power (which is pretty huge actually) or +1000 health. but only if you're in range and only for 2 minutes.

I'll be boxing with DK's too, I'll have every kind of tank at 60+ by the end of RAF, but I already had 2 at 70, so it's really not that big of a deal.

Yes, I know that, that's why I'm saying a paladin is better for a MB team. Warriors seem like they're better suited for raiding tanks. I just wasn't sure if Death Knights have any caster buff. It looks like they don't.

I have been playing my warrior since the game first came out, and while tanking in pre bc and bc was fun, I was highly disappointed by the fact that my class was completely replaceable by paladins and druids. I wasn't replaced, but replaceable nevertheless. The new wotlk warrior though got me creaming my pants. It will definetly be worth looking forward to.

The poll is about which tank will be the best multi-boxing tank in WOTLK, not which is the best tank period, or which is your current favorite.

Yes, I know. That is why I said Warrior. AND that I think it has always been the best.

Not sure what gets above the bar to be a caster buff.

DK (in unholy tree) has a talent that will give 12 or 13% extra damage from magic effects. Something like that. Anyway that is as good as Earth and Moon with the druid and you get it from your tank.

Not saying that DK is better than pally or that their buffs are better overall... just bringing their damage buff into the discussion.



:huh:
