Prot paladins - assume the position

[daanji]

So far it's only boxers that know the power of 5 Prots, or a prot with x4 blood.

Normal players don't care, you'd never get 5-single players to run a 5x tank setup cause it is a waste of time. A standard trinity group is more efficient and less stress, while skilled and geared players are going to run 1x tank and 4x DPS.

We do it because we like to multi-box and tanks work well for that. It is not efficient or even advantageous in the least.
Blizzard is making changes as a result of perceived imbalance in the normal game play. If that is detrimental to boxers it is just collateral damage and is no part a direct action against boxers.

5x prot pali has a limit in mythic+ because of their low dps. Yes it seems they can heal through anything but they cant ever beat the timer on high mythic.

For that reason I don't think it will ever catch on with the solo players, Its the 1xProt and 4xDPS that the nerf would be aimed at.

I also think this is blown way out of proportion. Only the highly skilled highly geared players are doing it, and those guys could run 5x disc priest through mythic+ if they wanted.

This I would love ​to see

I never said it was direct action against boxers - I said boxers shouldn't be surprised when something that's way too overpowered gets nerfed..
