    Default [WoW] Warriors getting tanking buffs with the new talents?

    As some anecdotal evidence in this thread suggests, it looks like warriors may become a worthwhile multiboxing tank option for AoE work instead of just having the pally. I also saw somewhere either in that thread or in another thread that all tanks may be getting a significant buff to threat generation, including the pally AoE threat mechanics. This can only be good, methinks.

    Until warriors have a ranged taunt, Can bubble a party member, buff each party member with mana regen or stats and res. i think ill be sticking with my pally. At first i was annoyed it was my only real choice as a tank for multiboxing but since then ive come to realise it would of probably been my best choice anyway.

    Warriors get ranged taunt, they have Intervene and they can buff team with HP.
    They will also get somewhat reactive tanking.

    If you are referring to me, go read patch notes, this is all in the current patch.
    Taunt has a 20yard range now. A talent deep in protection gives them reactive tanking.

    Paladins and druids are both getting buffs too.

    Warriors look like they're becoming more viable for boxing tank with their upgrades, while druids aren't really getting anything that we want our tanks to have. Paladins still look best out of the three, and I'm not sure how death knights will turn out.

    I spent last night just leveling inscription on an alt and selling glyphs, in between server restarts (lol). Today I'm going to try and run instances with both my warr and pally (both have great tank gear) and see who its easier with. Or maybe tomorrow, may end up spending all day today just tweaking UI and talent specing (lol)
