Out of all tanks (though I can probably narrow it down to Paladin or Warrior), which does the highest amount of single target damage?
Easy Warlock

Pretty sure warrior has the higher single target right now. Pally is much more of an aoe tank

Warrior probably wins AOE damage too.

Warrior 100% wins aoe. Prot warriors can comepete with dps specs for aoe pulls when they have avatar
For single target im not sure but based
experience im guessing prot warrior still does more dmg.

Single target? good question, probably warrior for both situations. AoE is obviously warrior but im not sure about single target, remember… warrior will probably get nerfed soon due to how overpowered it is.
Right?
wtf is with tanking this xpac, warrior is godmode and everything else is gutted

Closest you are going to get to pure st imho. Even then it does depend on who is MT vs OT for the fight since warrior only does damage when taking it really via free revenges and other factors.

Yup nerf to their avatar talent. Thunderclap goes from 200% bounus dmg to 150%. A sizeble portion of thier burst aoe
Good find, looks like prot warrior is #1 on single target by a long shot. gross
Nerf wont do anything. Warrior will just take cooldown essence and be in MORE avatars than before while still getting their free ignore pains.
I mean would you rather them not nerf at all? Several small buffs to prot warr made them from worst tank to best tank
Again like I said grong is not necessarily a perfect scenario. On our alt clear I tank and I only taunt grong for throws on my warrior so I hit like a wet noodle since I have next to no rage the entire fight.
I think warrior needs to take increased physical damage, it can stack so many absorbs and stuff it just becomes immune to pulling an entire fortified trash packs at +20 or higher, like wtf is that.
Warriors don’t stack absorbs? We stack block.
I am just saying that at the end of the day it is probably power neutral or an overall buff. None of the other tanks are GAINING much damage in 8.2 without strictly taking a dps essence.
I see, i havent looked much into next patch so i woulndt know!
You know what I mean
diamond trinket, traits, block, ignore pain, shield wall, cooldowns, what ends up happening is warrior and his friends pull the entire dungeon and bloodlust it all down
Nah, that’s mostly from shield block and the DR from armor.
