You have Growl as a single target taunt, and Challenging Roar as an AoE taunt. Faerie Fire(Feral) isn’t a taunt, but it’s good for pulling mobs at range, and does a high amount of threat when in Bear Form.

Berserk with Mangle(Bear Form) spam is also really nice for both damage and threat, as Mangle hits up to 3 targets when Berserk is active.

You also have Lacerate and if specc’ed into it, Pulverize, and at 85 81, you get Thrash.

You get Maul as a rage dump, I think immediately when you learn Bear Form, and Swipe as well, which is also great for multiple mobs.

You can keep Demoralizing Roar up, and you can use Barksin without coming out of form now. Frenzied Regeneration is a nice defensive cooldown for when you have a lot of rage, and need the extra heals. It lines up really well with Survival Instincts also, which I like to pop first to increase my health pool before using Frenzied Regen.

Anyway, the Feral bear toolkit is pretty straightforward and I think you’ll have a lot of fun tanking dungeons :slight_smile:
