They were a thing 13 years ago.
And they still exist today.
Props to the shamans who made those videos.

Just puts more unneeded pressure on a healer when you could just bring a real tank.
Any class can tank with a good enough healer I’m sure.

Just don’t join the group you don’t want to. Pretty easy if you ask me!
Yes, because a Warrior, Druid, Paladin, or Death Knight have never died from not getting heals. Do you have to heal a Shaman tank more? Obviously. But if you’re not up to the challenge just don’t join a group with a Shaman tank.
Party dealing 1k dps so shaman can keep threat)

Thats not a shaman Tank, thats a dps holding aggro.

Umm the mage was pulling 5k single target dps.
Can you read okay?
Think a hunter could tank Heroic Utgarde Pinnacle? It would be cool to see a video of it.
To be fair, he had no heals for several seconds there. Healer team fked up.

Do Shaman tanks just use leather pieces? Is there even any mail gear with defensive stats on it?
Mail pieces for armor and PvP typically for the Resilience and high stam.
Rings and other accessories can be more orientated towards mitigation, threat or stam.
Smells like cope
Sure, healer’s fault.
It’s definitely healers fault. Tanks have dedicated healers to prevent this sort of thing. A tank should never go that long without a single heal.

Of course it is… BAD HEALERS BAD, can’t keep a deranged player thinking it is a tank while can’t hold threat nor even mitigate incoming damage.

Trust me bro, it’s the healers fault.
Sure, everyone will trust you
He went ~9 seconds without a heal, that’s three whole big heals that could have been cast, before talent based cast time reductions and haste. Nobody healed him when he could have gotten at least 3 heals from a single healer.
