Everything Yongyong is saying I agree. I have no issues with 10s and frankly, I feel I could handle 12s too.
The challenge like Yongyong is saying is that at 12+, our utility is very niche and we lack a bres or lust. So pugging 12+ is very challenging so you need a focused group you play with consistently. With that group, the healer will know when you’re actually in trouble because you’re on comms. Otherwise they don’t know all the orbs we have that we can use to heal back.
Damage is good, very tanky, rotation is fun and engaging. But if you’re trying to push title or 12+ keys, pick another tank. Prot pally will most likely be S tier all expansion.
