Are enemies still going to be immune to certain elements in raids?
With Elemental DPS and Enchancement tanks, we run into a bigger issue with Fire and Earth immunities.
Another concern for the Horde that Alliance will never have to worry about.

just remove immunities altogether

Agreed. It invalidates certain specs to have these immunities. It makes about as much sense as making a raid tier where everything is immune to physical damage. Then warriors would know how some casters feel.
just remove the enemies. all they do is delay us.

Ahem, Fire mage in Molten Core would like a word out back,
Welllll I mean more along the lines of “DPS Shamans get screwed with no alternative along with tank Shaman.”
no, instead; create a boss that is immune to holy damage. make alliance i mean pallies see how it is to play horde
As a warlock who plans on tanking like a madman whilst leveling, but absolutely positively doesn’t want to be peer pressured into tanking at the raid level I see Molten Core and BWL’s fire immunites as an absolute win.
In all honesty, I’m pretty sure Warlocks would be the best tanks in the game for MC and BWL tiers, if they could land fire school reliably… Rank 13 gear may not be great for pvp, but it’s pretty perfectly itemized for warlock tanking, and they’d have a 2 tier ilvl gear advantage up until AQ40.
Yeah yeah, hybrid woes I get it, but you’re never gonna best Warriors or druid in this role, Rage is just 107% better than mana or energy. You should of all people know this.
Honestly, its as it should be.
Right…that’s why this should be altered.
Nah.
I’m glad Shaman tanks and Warlock tanks will get stiffed. Stupid idea in the first place.
So lets say we make Shaman tanks and warlock tanks 100% Equal to Warrior tanks.
Lets also say we make Shaman and lock DPS equal to Warrior DPS.
How many warriors do you think will be left in game?

Lets say the number of warrior tanks decrease because shamans and warlocks can also tank.
Explain why this matters.
Only if you give the warriors a spell damage tree. Then, okay.
It does not work that way…
What happens is if “Hybrids” are equal in DPS / Tank to Pure DPS or Warriors is that there is no reason to bring a warrior any more because they factually have less utility than a comparable hybrid.
There would be factually Zero reason to play a warrior if that is the case because hybrid then has all the advantage overall, hence Non hybrid classes die off.
