What would your normal rotation be on a raid boss fight to gain optimal DPS / Effective Healing / Threat generation?
I use devastate and revenge to refresh Shield slam.. I always have devestate (5 stacks) up on my boss! I spam heroic strike if i have much rage! When im tanking multiple mobs i use Thunder clap, cleave and shockwave.. Thunderclap i do as fast the cd i done.. I first gather mobs infront of me before i do shockwave and then i also tabs betwen the mobs and shield slam if im almost loosing threat on that mob..

I dont like the fact that you stack stamina m8. change some gems to exp and Hit and maybe some dodge/parry couse stamina stackers is not welcome in my eyes since they cant really take a hit and healthpool isnt everything.

I dont need any more hit or exp since i do a very good amount of threat already and hit almost on evry strike, sure i can change some of my 30stamina to 10 dodge and 15 stamina! My stats is pretty decent even if i got many stamina gems.. i have 49,5% avoid unbuffed!

I think my gear, enchants, gems have a nice balance, not to much "only stamina" and im also have a decent amount of avoidense!

But i will change some of my 30stamina to 10dodge and 15stmina if ud like that, im also a person that pref Dodge/parry over hp but i have only pugged the last few weeks since i joind ally and puggs only care of one thing and thats Hp.. Thats why i choiced so many stamina gems

I have to agree with Saphi on this one about the stamina stacking warrior tanks, they do have nice high health pools but couldnt take a hit to save themselves. I've seen it far too many times in random pugs where ive been made to be the OT because the stamina stacked warrior is a buddy of the RL and then gets 1 shot when tanking the adds on onyixia. I do know what your saying about pugs, where stamina stacked tanks = good, I mean if i go in a pug i get harassed to like epic and what not, but as soon as i say i can get 50k health raid buffed its INV INV INV INV!!!!!

But having said that, I've been checking out some of the top guilds in Frostmane like Ninth Order and Memento Mori and noticed that their warrior tanks are all stamina stacked, they all have blacksmithing/Jewelcrafting. I don't know if this is because they are doing the HM's and larger heathpools help the healers cope or what but in general ive heard Jonnie say he doesnt take healing the stamina stacked tanks as the hits they take are too spikey.

Also if memory serves there is very little +hit on the tanking gear in ToTC so this might be the reason for there stamina stacking, i dunno =P.

I'm willing to let you have a trial as your gear is right for what we are looking for in a tank. Im more than happy to take a backseat and be OT to test you out.

Lets see what a couple more officers say and decide on a inv after that

Ill also might to add that since last patch stamina isnt really the best stat for warriors tho many use it, we get a shit ton of rage from dodge/parry now so its even better for our survivabilty to use those stats instead of stamina, also get good threat since we have the rage to. I too know ppl only see health pool but since there is nothing wrong otherwise in your gear im willing to give you trial to, just change some gems m8 and you will prob notice a diff to.

Okey, nice.. accepted?
