i am doing +10 and 11’s at the moment and i am struggling to stay alive. If iv’e got Metamorphosis up I’m fine, but when iv’e only got 1 stack of demon spikes and fiery brand, and fel-devastation and maybe a trinket or a potion i struggle. I have to run and kite. And this is only 1 pack of 4 mobs I’m versing, forget two packs. Meanwhile i see the warrior pulling 2 packs of 4 and there fine. I just feel really squishy. Though the dps aren’t helping me either, they don’t kill a single mob, all 4 mobs get to 10% health and enrage on me before one of them dies.
Is anyone else struggling to stay alive as DH Tank in keys?
I noticed DH tank also has a low representation on the raider IO leader-board. There’s only 5 in the top 100 tanks while Prot Paladin has 7, Death knight has 16, Bear has 10, warrior has 58
Maybe your group is made of Carrot men? men made of carrots who you can easily peel and make look pretty, then steam them… AKA - put skull on a mob, doesnt matter what one… then they attack that… Some groups are just stupid (its true) and people just keep killing whatever if they don’t have a target. In the real world, if someone is having a heart attack… and people are standing around, peeople will assume others will do something. hate to say it, but we (me a tank too) need to step up for these NPC’s…
I rarely see DH tanks. But the ones i have seen. seem a lot squishier then war for sure and guardians. i feel like they still want DH tanks to kite. but there isn’t a lot of room to kite without pulling more mobs.
Vengeance is not over performing, is not performing the task as a tank in pvp. Tank should be able to stand vs several enemies and last a while.
A warrior can very easy decimate a vengeance dh. That really defeats the purpose of “tank”, when the dps spec of a class can survive more than the tank spec, is clear that something is going on.
If you refer to havock is not over performing, is just balance, players got use to from previous expansion to not fear a dh since was week. Today can have a decent fight.
(Is hard to take the coment seriously from a warrior and lvl 40, is this a alt? )
Venge needs a buff, still too squishy. It sucks when everyone cries for havoc to be nerfed then Venge also gets nerfed b/c of sharing the same talent tree. Nerf havoc all day, I am fine with this, but PLEASE stop nerfing Venge b/c of Havoc. Give Venge blur back, venge had blur in beta, why was it stripped away in production? I think this is totally fair as all classes got offensives/defensives by sharing the same talent tree, but Venge doesn’t get Blur?
