I need people to sell me on DK or DH tank. Like give me why you would play one. Im kinda stuck on it. I like demons more than dead people thematically, i like that both self heal, not a huge fan of kiting, i heard DK is not beginner friendly, DH is apparently easy to learn. So sell me on this please? Thanks!
DH to zoom zoom.
Prot pally for the win love there tanking and there dps spec ret all aroudn fun class to paly secodn would be Dk and screw the red headed step child DH
What about brewmaster? They’re cool. And I’ve heard they’re friendly with healers since stagger keeps their health predictable.
Ok so probably not DH
You’re only a beginner for a little while, I’d say go for this one.

Bdk is really fun when it’s not a necrotic week. lol
Being a Satanic Grasshopper has its charm…
DK is pretty simple. Easy to use damage mitigation, simple rotation. Self healing is off the charts. Solo any rare spawn
And battle rez, any race.

Be sure to play a gnome or goblin so you can be really small and face off against really big monsters!
If you like the demon thematic and you’re not a fan of kiting, go DH. In situations where you’re forced to kite, DH makes it super easy with their crazy mobility, while DK has the worst mobility out of all the tanks. And yes, DH is easy.
I thought DH was the tank that had to kite in like a normal encounter?
With DKs, you can Gorefiend’s Grasp a group of whirlwinding mobs onto your healer, and I think that’s beautiful.

Every tank will have situations where they’ll need to kite, especially if you plan on tanking in m+. So if you don’t like kiting, you really won’t like kiting as a DK.
Lmao fair, ill keep that in mind
Depeneds on how far/high you want to go. DH is more easy as a baseline. DK has far more useful tools and utility. You won’t have to kite with enough gear and a low enough key level outside of necrotic weeks but when you DO need to kite, DK is among the worst for it ESPECIALLY against mobs that jump/teleport and/or can’t be slowed. DH, by contrast, are among the best for it and can still generate decent threat with their spammy glaive toss.
For a beginner tank though, bears and paladins are the goto tanks. Bears are the training wheel tank that has 0 actual difficulty. Druids also have really good utility and access to all the roles if you find you don’t like tanking. Paladins are also a low skill floor tank with a lot of high end potential too. Specifically, a Kyrian prot pally popping divine toll is probably in the top 3 most satisfying moves to do in WoW. Instant and unbeatable threat, 1-3 full sets of holy power points, a mass silence against casters, and just looks/feels awesome. Paladins are also, imo, the most fun tank to play (I play them all).
I love divine toll such a great covent ablity and so satasfing to watch shileds and hammers (for DPS) go every which way and the sound and iv run alosmt every tank class in the game and settled on pally there great
