    Prot warrior is the most fun tank by far : - As a defensive tank, it is the most challenging of tanking specs but also the most rewarding. You have to play much more intensively and use a lot of abilities to keep threat but it works well. You also have to rely more on CC's and stuns than other tanks as you have less CD's, but you do have a lot of stuns to compensate. - As a dps-oriented tanking spec it is the best by far. With some changes to your spec (vengeance spec) or your gear (going for both arpen and def cap) you can pump some real dps numbers (and get huuuge threat), while tanking well enough if your healers can manage your squishiness. - Did I mention double charge, intervention and sunder ? - As a pvp spec it is hilarious, especially with endgame gear, you go for maximum arpen no resilience and you go around stunning and 2-shotting everything. Second would be bear. Best tank for kiting stuff and going around pulling huge packs. There is also a dps potential here, but more as a feral dps using bear form to offtank some stuff on the side, bear doesn't really do that much damage except on some niche fights. DK and prot paladin are both great but you can tell their kit is supposed to be effective rather than fun to play. If you want to be reliable a tank that does clean pulls and never dies, those two are great, but I'd get bored playing them.

    Warrior is the most fun tank to watch when played correctly, it's also the easiest to tell when someone is messing it up just by looking. it involves a bit more work to hold aoe threat than a paladin obviously. My personal favorite is the death knight for a reason you did not specify, you can tank as frost, blood or unholy if you wish, all different playstyles. You can even duel wield tank if you choose to, although I haven't seen anyone do it at a high level.

    Once again - SPOT ON! You chose Demo Lock as most fun dps spec (and it was my main in vanilla and will be my main in Wrath Classic), Holy Priest as most fun healer (not an expert on healing but I would probably play either a Holy Priest or a Resto Shaman if I did play one) and now Warrior as most fun tank (and imo that is absolutely the case). Yes, it's all subjective but it feels good having an expert like you on the same page as I am :)

I intend on still playing my disci priest for pvp solely to get those glad titles again but i intend on maining a prot pala for pve, however i have my 70 priest but i dont have a paladin, should i buy the dark portal pass (as i never bought it so its still avail for me) and lvl from 58-70 so im ready or should i hold off? im abit worried i havnt heard anything about the level 70 boost yet.

    Yes but it happened sometimes when you didnt make it to the next group of mobs in 15 seconds then you lost your divine plea for that pack and being a geared tank actually caused you to not take enough damage to sustain your mana in dungeons. Wasn't game breaking or anything, maybe a bit annoying at most but I remeber it happened in dungeons.

    Always happy to get content but the warrior portion of the video felt a bit shallow. Your reasoning seemed to be based more on appeal to class fantasy than gameplay. Nothing wrong with that (you do a bit of that for all classes after all), but I would have liked to hear you talk more about gameplay beyond just listing out warrior abilities and saying how cool they are. Also, someone else has already brought this up, but you fail to mention any of the warrior tanks' weaknesses. Warriors being the squishiest of the tanks doesn't really line up with the class fantasy aspect that you've been putting forward. It's cool to see a video pumping up prot warriors but there was such a jarring disconnect between the warrior section and every other class featured.

  • @NicholasBalanta

    "Weakness" of warrior tanks is a subjective term that is misleading. When WotLK was LIVE back in the day warrior tanks were competitive, and preferred on certain heroic encounters like Anubarak. The data shows that all tanks fall within +/- 2% of each other. So similar geared it becomes a matter of skill, game knowledge and healers working with you. Warriors and paladins in magic damage heavy fights are at a disadvantage, while DKs rotate cds and the druid hopes their health bar holds up. Is that the weakness you were referring to? Warriors are the most mobile tanks with 3 dashes, good aoe threat and highest dps with their armor pen scaling, those are their strengths. They also have a raid physical dps buff with shattering throw. The warrior community on classic are very good at what they do even if they are "weak" they figure it out and earn their spots in raids. The video was about "fun" and warrior tanking feels intuitive, good and fun even if it's "weak".

Some people just like to run some dungeons pack-by-pack and then raid, which i would agree a warrior can absolutely be fun for especially with the addition of the Revenge main-tank specc for easier content.

    Not having played a warrior past level 10... i cant comment on warriors. I have tried max level druid tanks. I'll be honest, i kind felt it was sorta boring. There never seemed to be any... 'feeling' to when you hit the boss. I cant explain it, but the sound, visual effects and character animation never felt like it had power behind it. Power the druid does have. And DK's... to be honest, it felt weird playing one as a DPS... but even weirder to tank with it. The blows felt good.. but i really felt it did better and felt better as a DPS than a tank. And i am biased as I've played a paladin tank for way longer than any of the others.

    Couldnt't disagree more about paladin being second. The only "fun" thing about the paladin is how damn OP you are, they have annoying buffs to maintain that if you don't you go oom, and they don't have much of a feel to them when tanking. Feels like a checklist and then you're invincible. Druid is far more fun with charge, and DK with deathgrip.

    @@thomasmathew13 Back in the day, that was actually the entire reason I chose to tank at all. I was much less secure in my skills back then, and took a lot of solace in the Paladin tanking rotation being dead-ass simple. I remember one of the most annoying things about Paladin tanking was that I didn’t have an ability for snap-aggro at any given time. Hammer of Righteousness and judgement having such long cooldowns meant I very often had nothing to follow up a taunt with to secure a mob. I’ve been very happy with my TBC warrior and always having a button to press instead of needing to wait all the time. Granted, that comes with the downside of absolute struggles for AoE threat. But shit, at least warrior tanking has *never* been BORING!

    Not only are all 3 tanks specs are viable 3.3.5, Frost tank (23/40/8) will by far out perform Blood tanking until late ToC or ICC. Most people are stuck seeing DK tanking as Blood because of the changes in Cata+ but back in ICC the first go around almost all the tanking was done by 23/40/8 Frost spec for DKs. It should also be noted that Blood spec tanking is by far the least FUN DK tank spec.

    @@vaels5682 The only thing blood tanking offers that frost does not is 3.25% more effective health in the best case scenario. This comes at a cost of worse mitigation overall and you give up the ability to use 2x last Laugh which means frost gets about 1% bonus health from using them over Betrayer of Humanity. So in the end blood is giving you about 2.25% more EH at the cost of worse overall mitigation. Meanwhile a druid with the same level of gear will have about 10% higher EH than any DK and a paladin will have about 2% higher EH and be a better tank in just about every way. So if you think tanking Ulduar 25hm as Frost is a terrible idea then you also think tanking it as Blood is a terrible idea.

    Hey Scottejaye, nice Video but with so many flaws. Fun as a Tank is also fun of getting over the encounters. For this Warrior is far worse then the other tanks on a 25 / heroic 25 base. Maybe you should give that hint in the videos as well. In the end, its your opinion and i totaly respect that. But we could argue that some ppl also try to find a detail level like sarthe or other not so well known content creators provide to get a good and well rounded perspective to these topics.

    First, I’m pretty sure that most people who are planning to push heroic 25s already know that warriors are the “worst” tanks in wrath. This video isn’t about how successful you’ll be, it’s about how fun it is to play. You can dungeon tank and do 10 mans absolutely perfectly fine with a prot warrior. Second, we don’t know entirely for sure how it’s gonna go in wrath classic. Everyone expected warriors to fall off in TBC classic but they didn’t. People have been playing private servers for years, but we don’t know that they had all the numbers exactly right, and people learn and discover new stuff all the time. Everyone should play the game they want to play it. Some people want to enjoy their class and find content that matches that play style, and some people want to do the hardest content and find a class that will make it easier.

Other than that there are no tank that has more utilities + more tankiness than a paladin and I am saying this that progressed on every tank. Friendly suggestion if you thinking going hardcore with a warrior tank just don't. Even the content will be faceroll still people would prefer palas. If the fun is the thing we after I would stay paladin. While our warrior tank was having hard time on KT on buffed content I was able to solo tank KT 25 man with pala and that's so much fun.
