I am not talking about the 1% and i know every tank CAN be played at an high level. I know every tank needs to be different as multiple reasons. I feel like the “work” between tanks is huge. I feel i have to put more work in a brewmaster than a DH. The tradeoff isn’t worth the minimax on a brew to a DH where i could just do my thing and pull easy.
The gap is noticeable. I can do 13s easy on DH than brew I struggle its like 18 as the dps is only doing 2k overall.
Most people who are doing high keys have to build comps or do special skips where an dh can just handle it all by itself.
If every tank has the same level of “useness” as cc than feel like it gonna be more balance and bizz can go around a group having it.

I felt this too. Its not fair an another tank has to work 5x-7x harder for something where someone else can just do easier and faster.

I don’t really know about any of that but there is one advantage that Brew has over DH - you aren’t locked into playing an Elf.

Tanks right now are probably about as close as they have been in a while, but brewmaster is still the obvious outlier.

I don’t think taking the easiest is always what it is about. A lot of players really like riding their cooldowns and rising to the challenge of a spec. If everyone just shrugged and said, “Go bear” then it wouldn’t be much of a game.

Tell that to the arcane mages that sneeze and do literally twice the dps of my spriest. At least tanks are only one to a group.
I hate when my groups have 3 arcane mages.
Brew definitely needs some kind of rework similar to what other specs got when they were starting to get to an awkward spot, not necessarily because they are being left behind per se (they seem to be about equal in terms of highest key done), but what they are is massively lower population compared to other tanks, I think it was sitting around 1/3-1/2 the population % the other tanks have
I also can’t say too much regarding the other Tank Specs, but it’s crazy how much smoother it feels playing a Blood DK compared to a Brewmaster when I tried both of them out this season and did Triple Threat
is that an bad thing? its an team effort. I rather have that can feel like i can not do half of cc/tankness/self healing and damage of an DH. OHH wait i am because they are op.
What kind of primadonna cares about video game character thigh gap?
you need help.
Chafing is a serious problem.

Not really, but the skill floors are vastly different. Then again we got brew that is only good if you play around the skill ceiling, and bdk that is only good if you’re playing low to mid keys.
I feel like Brewmaster is the outlier. Blizz has struggled with balancing Brewmaster for quite a while now. Not sure what the fix would look like.
I think 5/6 tanks are the outlier because they really made them less powerful all together. The only one that stands up is DH. They didnt lose of anything. Now of days keys is base on how you stop mobs not how you deal with their attacks. If you can stop 90% of things going off than you are playing an different game. The other do not really have anything cool as sigils to make them stand out. Without needed talented in while its baseline in DH.
Bizz needs to normalize tanks CC than it would be more base on what you can do as player and your defenses.

Only tank I’ve seen struggle consistently is Brewmaster.
Dead in the water if they don’t receive a rework come Season 3.
lmao.
definitely a diff when it comes to fun
good god is prot fun. i was missing out big time and am so happy that leveling event happened. its all thunder everywhere, stomping on the ground, shield to the face, yelling about someone stepping on your foot or something. @___@ i just can’t even with that alt
my main is a bear and will always be a bear. stealth is nice but man i wish the abilities were even half that sort of FUN— paw slap, backhanded paw slap, weird chin slap-bite, stand up then slap again, ironfur (which has zero animations/visuals), it doesn’t even compare!

usually I would post something like ‘every dog has its day’ but ngl vdh at the top and brew at the bottom by a mile has been a thing for way too long at this point.
