Naked prot warrior completes +20 COS.... seems balanced

A Prot warrior in gear finishing off a boss in a lower key was enough for Blizzard to nerf all tanks

I expect some kneejerk nuke is inbound for this

This is actually brilliant.

This is a problem with Court of Stars. I tanked Melandrus last week on a +17 Tyrannical, since he runs too slow and casts too frequently to melee, and even when he was hitting me it was quite weak.

Also, the group is running 2 HDHs, a rogue, and a Resto druid. You couldn’t get a more meta comp in–arguably–the easiest dungeon.

Better to buff CoS and the other tanks, since Blizzard has a sadistic history about nerfing Protection Warriors into oblivion and leaving them there for the rest of an expansion.

Based on your assessment, can we call for nerfs on Brewmaster too since a monk in green gear was able to clean and time +21?

Really? You’re comparing 207 ilvl warrior with 355 ilvl Brew?

3098 post “player” that clearly doesn’t even play the game enough to know that COS is on the current DF roster lol. Almost reads like a bad joke.

I thought I was the only one…

Honestly what carries keys is dps/healers… Tanks in general are braindead this expac I got tired of it and went dps.

Too many bad dps and healers that dont kick or los etc etc… I 100% know if even 1 of these dps in his groups misses a couple kicks or even dies, these runs wouldn’t be possible. That’s all it takes in these runs is a dps/heal to suck cheeks.

If you count how bad stagger plays out for most brews then yes it’s kinda equal. #Buffstagger

Tank survivability being too high across the board was enough for Blizzard to nerf all tanks*

And just like the blanket enhancement nerf, hindsight has proven that change to be completely fine.

Look at brewmasters and tell me their survivorability was too high.

Yeah, Brewmasters are out here clearing all content perfectly fine. They’re just not as good as Prot Warriors.

Also due to how Monk stagger works, they’re always terrible for low level content.

My god are you for real? You think it’s ok that a half naked tank can tank a +20 dungeon for even 5 seconds, let alone with one wipe? You’re out of your mind.

It’s not exactly the same, the BRM was never in range of a mob unless shield was up or they were hard CCed. This isn’t that different to how all tanks do cutting edge keys, where kiting is the only way to live.

The war did some of that, but not remotely close to the same degree.

Yep, blizzard does watch these types of videos. Warriors about to get smashed in the face with the nerf bat is my guess.

Tank is actually the easist carry

You can really see all the prot warrior mains in this thread. Anyone who denies prot warrior isn’t busted should be tested for drugs.

Wasn’t naked, no tank busters in CoS, got a very coordinated carry, video is stupid.

not in a 20 man, the scaling is insane. A bad tank can be carried in a 10 but a 20 is no way
