Did my first Horrific Vision as a tank and couldn’t kill Thrall cuz I ran out of sanity. This is forcing tanks and healers to re-roll as dps, which wouldn’t be bad but for the azerite respec cost adding up. I really hope blizzard removes the costs for azerite trait respec. Your thoughts?

My thoughts? Get more Azerite gear instead of re-rolling your existing gear… Go to Nazjatar and get some Benthic gear, that will hold you over until you can get something better for your off-spec.

Because he didn’t play that spec before. Did you read his post?

Did it as Monk tank… First run sucks. You just gotta beeline to Thrall/Alleria no side stuff… Warrior tank probably will be easiest as they can put out a ton of damage
once you get the orb which would be before second run it makes it easier to kill more stuff then just sanity all the way to 1000 and kill.
Then its simply follow basic mechanics… Dodge stuff etc

I don’t play my other specs but I still keep gear around in case I ever want to.
Druids do the least damage of any tank spec.
If saving everything forever is what you want to do with your bag space, more power to you. I personally have been getting very tired of getting crit haste polearms. Why do they even exist?

I literally have a set for every spec on all my characters. Whether I play that spec or not, I have at least a half decent set of my old gear. Ie. I get a new piece for my main spec, and my secondary spec gets the old piece I just replaced, and my third spec gets the piece my secondary spec replaced.
It’s all current gear.

Why do you not have multiple sets of azerite by now? Both my dps and tank sets have full 450 azerite pieces. My healing set only has 435s because I stopped doing M+ for a couple months last season.
At the very least, emissary azerite is thrown at us often enough that you could have full 420s for every spec.

then you should be more oriented to group play and just join a group.

I have a full set of azerite gear for all my specs. Even the ones I don’t ever play. Sure it’s lower ilvl, but it gets the job done.
What I don’t bother with is multiple sets of rings and trinkets. I don’t care if prot pally needs mastery rings. I can’t be stuffed grinding that.

The reason I dont have multiple sets is cuz I dont play the other specs…I dont like the other specs nor am I good at other specs. This patch is forcing players into roles/spec they may not like imo. Just my two cents; not saying Im right, just what i feel.

They should have enough damage unless they are doing sub 10k and if thats the case its a player issue or severely undergeared
Agreed. Tanks are generally more geared toward group play. Their only job is to hold aggro and not die… It’s not to dps.
If the OP is having problems dpsing the solution is simple. Either find a dps that can do the job for you, or switch to a dps spec.
Most solo content is geared toward dps oriented game play, not tank or healer game play.

Also I couldnt bee line to Thrall cuz there was some type of magic barrier up preventing me to go to thrall right away…it only went down after I cleared the area of mobs, which ate most of my sanity.
False. Here is a ranking of tank damage–note guardian at 3rd.

It’s doable as a tank regardless. You just have to be quick on that first run. Once you get your orbs it is significantly easier.
I’m shocked Blizzard didn’t learn their lesson with Withered Training.
Who wants to be reliant on groups for this? I can’t imagine the nightmare pugging this and if someone just leaves right away it can screw you out of a potential upgrade.

Horrific Visions should be the lingo at the Blizzard board room, as the subs bleed away. So I guess they picked a good name for them…

What is “undergeared”, considering that the questline appears to be tuned for 425+ dps? A Guardian will do a lot less damage than any comparably equipped dps.
