Since I end up doing most of the tanking

Can I get some damage mitigation skills or something? My crappy 4 heals worth of mana bar aint cutting it. And if I’m going to tank this much just give me the option to do it in LFG

I’ve never had this much of a problem trying to control my threat generation ever. I ended up tanking the last 1/4 of the end boss in LFR last week.

Looks at character sheet

Was the tank afk?

I thought the Earth Ele was your tank. No mitigation for you!

Earth Ele dies quick put next to a raid boss, with the totem having a 2min CD.

Some classes are gimped with threat at the moment. Sometimes it’s fine and other times it’s a joke. Guardian druid though, is in a good place threat wise.

Threat on multiple mobs is rough, but if you are tanking a boss then the tank just doesn’t know what he is doing

if a tank isn’t holding threat, then they’re probably not even damaging the enemy.

And my pets are bad at tanking! Tenacity pets should do less damage in exchange for being great at tanking! And not falling over in two hits like they do now. I’m annoyed by my pets nowadays.

The tank should be able to hold aggro.

Stop attacking things the tank hasn’t engaged.

That is all.

I always attack the tanks target. I give them time to establish agro. But 1 flame shock has been enough to pull and keep agro. ONE flame shock and NOTHING else.

5 min CD not 2.

Oh, sorry. Haven’t played shammy!

you’re so bad you think you can’t easily tank a LFR boss as dps

Obviously I did. The problem is I’m not supposed to be. It’s not just LFR. I’m tired of getting stuck out in the world tanking others people’s crap along with my own and getting overwhelmed do to my threat gen. They need to lower my threat gen or give me some mitigation skills. If I’m going to tank then give me tank skills. I’m not trying to be one of those crazy youtubers that try things just because. I prefer to do my roll, which is not being a meat shield. If I wanted to be a meat shield I’d have leveled my bear druid instead.
