This series inspired me to talk to my guilds prot warrior for advice on how to play prot and the first dungeon I jumped into as a tank was a VoTW +6 PuG and we 3 chested with no problem. Was a real confidence booster and now I'm tanking keys for guildies and getting into pugs like instantly. It's opened up a part of WoW that I've never even considered trying before and I love it.

This is GOLDEN Preach! I had a great night boosting mythic plus 5 through 9 last night without a healer, and this made me realise why it went so great. I was in charge the whole time, lead the group through the dungeon, called for help, told them to wait for my stacks to drop and so on. We where in constant communication about cooldowns, what we needed for certain pulls, if we could skip a pack or take an extra one for percentage, marking mobs and calling interrupts. We had quite the composition though. Protection Paladin (my alt), Elemental Shaman, Enhancement Shaman and a Fire Mage xD

That point on communication is so important. Despite not liking the responsibilities that come along with tanking since I'm a fairly shy guy, I still tanked through previous expansions and remember calling out taunts and CDs for healers, or whether I'm moving for the group/raid while tanking through BC/Wrath/Cata. So easy to just say "I'm out of CDs and tricks, anybody have any shit they can pull out of their ass?" Or stuff like "My big CD is about to fade." So healers know to start pre-casting heals. Or even just "Pulling him to the wall." Before you start moving so people can start to re-position. Makes all the difference. The reason I love tanking so much is the dance you get to have with the other tank. The communication of when you're taunting, how many stacks you have, stating whether you have the CDs available so the other tank knows if he has to taunt, or like in my paladin's case, telling the other tank I'm giving him Sacrifice or Spellwarding for this upcoming burst. So great, much fun, such rewarding. Plus, you'll still have those moments where everyone is dead and you pull off the last couple percent. Both my guild and my group of friends both gave me the nickname of "Raid boss" because of that shit, but that doesn't mean you don't communicate because you're still baloney by yourself, and nobody wants a sandwich made with nothing but baloney.

I’m know I’m late to the party but thanks for this awesome series. I’ve been playing since vanilla and the thought of being the tank “the make or break member” of the group/raid has prevented me from ever trying to play one. I’ve been successful at every other role thus far. I forget how many times my group of friends have been wanting to do something including raids and didn’t because “our tank” wasn’t online lol. I am currently leveling a warrior and will begin tanking once I get my artifact. I will be sure to refer to this series along my journey and again thanks for making content for those like me in the community.

This is good advice. Tanks need to communicate and work with their group. In raids this is essential between the tanks and the tanks to healers. You need to respect what others can do for you and call as necessary. If you're really lucky then you're in a good team with the other main tank, you chat, you accept when you've made errors and you look to avoid repeating them. I wouldn't say that tanks should be optimal raid leaders, some fights make it near impossible to call group coordination as tank coordination is completely different to that but the advice about keeping the team alert between pulls is a good one. On Mythic+ there are definite tank types that are good for certain affixes but again, it's about the composition and using the appropriate team. It doesn't solve all problems for necrotic (up to 9+ it's relatively simple but the Mythic 10 affix can destroy that) but it's sensible advice (again). So yh, a nice series on tanking as an introduction, I personally love tanking, there's no better way to control your own enjoyment than to be the tank in a pug.

I've only tanked in MoP & WoD (on blood DK), but I've also noticed that healers usually aren't aware of how much self-healing tanks do, especially Blood DKs. I had the situation where a Ret pally swapped to Holy in WoD (HFC) and since I was the more smoothed out tank, they stuck him on me. We had fun, killed most of the bosses we wanted to, and I told my paladin friend I never felt in danger & he did a great job. To my surprise, he told me that while he was healing his ass off, he ended up with almost 80% overhealing on me & asked if we could do some Timewalking dungeons to help work on that. I told him to take Beacon off me to see how much raw healing I actually needed. At the time, I had equipped a 2-pc that lowered the CD on Vamp Blood every time I spent RP or runes or something. The whole time, I we were in voicecom and I was actively saying things like "Ok i'm at 60% HP but I can Vamp BLood & do 2 Deathstrikes and then after that I can Anti-Magic Shell to get more RP and anoher death strike or 2 in the Vamp BLood window, and by then a few mobs would have died and i'm not worried about the amount of incoming damage anymore, even though i'm at 60% HP and it LOOKS kinda scary now in this moment". I could almost hear his brain exploding from across the internet. Was a great time, much success was had and his overhealing on me dropped hilariously significantly the next week when we raided again.

The point about looking at time in between pulls is actually very big. We were recruiting people at the end of HFC and were having to switch people in and out. Some high progression recruits started looking at our time between pulls and questioning why we were taking so long to clear. In reality it was because we were swapping people in and out but people do look at those things so make sure to stay on top of it.

Hey Preach. As you spoke about a tanks ego and godmode syndrome I couldnt help myself but smile. Our guild had a tank that left for this very reason. He was in godmode, always blaming others for wipes on progress so on so forth. So he left and joined mythic progress guild. Suprise suprise, he never got to any raid. I dusted off my brewmaster (tanked HFC with it) and tanked instead of him (luckily I was windwalker, so I didnt have to catch up with Artifact knowledge). And I have to say Im glad he did. because m+ dungs are way more fun as a tank.

@themetalone77398 жыл бұрын
Totally agree about the ego thing. If there's anything I've learned, having played every role (with a few different classes), it's that each individual person is capable of doing great things that have a big impact of the success of the group. Makes no difference what your role is. The difference is, when you're dps, or even heals most of the time, no one notices the good things you do...until you stop doing them.
@bestmonkna77208 жыл бұрын
I agree with most of what you've said in this series, except for the, "I wish I had X ability" comments. For the most part you are correct in the sense that every class in every role has the tools to deal with whatever the game throws at them, the exception to this is Blood DK. As a Blood DK main in a mythic guild, certain abilities like Cenarius/Odyn Spears you just don't have the same tools. Having to talent into a 25% DR with a 30%DR baseline isn't enough to keep those abilities mitigated like they are intended. The fights are still killable. Iron Bark/Pain Sup work wonders, but blood has such trash AM, we have to have "Recently Used: Death Strike" to "count" as am for certain boss checks when Blood Shield doesn't do anything for mitigation really. It would be nice to have a reliable baseline DR to deal with those things.
@TK1999998 жыл бұрын
Okay, I just had smack my forehead moment. I don't call out to raid healers when I have burned my mitigation cool downs and need more healing/attention. Its so obvious now, back in the day my healers new me and so I didn't have to say anything. But the healer who trained me back in Wrath did train me to call out when I was in trouble. Thanks Preach, you just saved my raiding career and made it more fun too.

Having 'fun' last night in a +10 BRH, my only other experience of necrotic was a +7 arcway the other day. Blizzard got it sooo right with mythic+ dungeons. We don't raid anymore, but we do dungeons and these give us the opportunity to have fun in dungeons with new and interesting mechanics that completely change the way you play/go through it. The one thing I would say is talk to your healer. When in runs our healer would simply say things like 'got you' 'not got you' and the latter meaning I'm going to have to use something to keep myself alive, be it a cooldown, a stun, kiting, etc.. helps you time your abilities with his and avoids situations where he pops a big cooldown on you and you pop your own at the same time unnecessarily. I'm really enjoying this style of tanking these days, I didn't like it originally.. I was an old skool tank that prided myself on keeping threat but on reflection that didn't really mean much more than just mashing my buttons when I had the rage to. Nowadays I'm thinking about what type of damage I'm taking, what cooldown should I use now and what should I save for that big ability I know is coming? Apart from the abysmal itemisation issues Blizz really got a lot of things right with this exp. :)

On the topic of tanks calling out for external CDs... I used to do that, but not anymore. Your point is that tanks die because they didn't say a word about not having any CDs left, how are healer supposed to know? My point has shifted to, how am I as a tank supposed to know that you weren't capable of keeping me alive at that point? Especially for PuGs I expect my healers to do their thing and if they feel like I'm about to die use their other thing.

I wish all pug tanks saw this before going to do M+, especially necrotic. I am 889 MW and one night we had to pug a tank , did 6 8 10, when necrotic appeared, i noticed this guardian druid is not trying to get rid of his stacks as I was used to with my usual tank. In the 10 run, he was just happily taking 20-35 stacks and bitching that I am a bad healer, i constantly repeated that HE needs to get rid of the stacks (it was also raging so he was getting obliterated) since the 8 dungeon. He kept going on without changing anything and taunted me repeatedly, to the point i felt like kicking him and depleting my key, he started dying on purpose etc. So yeah, ego is the biggest problem in tanking.

This is my first expansion both main tanking and raid leading, and the ego thing is something that is hard to get used to. A problem I find as a blood DK is delegating what should be tanked, I naturally want to find ways to tank things better myself, solo tanking bosses for example but then I remember we have 2 tanks and the other is just dealing with adds or doing nothing interesting. I don't want to make the other tank feel bad like that but it's hard not to want to handle stuff when I can.

Preach one thing to say as well that the EGO effect does not only apply to tanks. I've been a pally tank since TBC pre patch. Using cc in a dungeon was a regular thing to do. But now entering a M+10 after pausing the game for whole Draenor when I'm asking for help or telling someone to slow down as I'm still getting used to some mechanics( i'm 110 not even two months yet) People just charge in and blame me for the fail of the timer at the end. The game got quicker and that is nice- but it lost a lot of the "social" aspects and most ppl in pugs do not care much apart of the tip of their nose...

For some reason people in comments are complaining that blood dk is bad. That is not the case at all. Blood dk can pull VERY high aoe dps and is good at tanking multiple targets. If the ammount of enemies is high, blood dk tanks and does damage extremely well. Some said that blood dk is bad for necrotic because you get healing reduction, well, you can block necrotic with anti magic shell for 5(?) seconds and if you have the legendary 10 seconds. That means you have 1/6 of time shell up blocking all necrotic and when you can't tank the pack just use death and decay and run away. Now that you might think that "yeah, it's only 1/6th of the time up" but in which dungeon do you have to pull big packs all the time?

Healing and dpsing follow mostly the same rules when you're trying to maximize performance, these rules are: not wasting gcd's by running around, getting as much uptime as possible, as much cleave/aoe healing as possible (don't pad though), and cooldown & trinket proc management. The only difference is that having a battle plan (see preach's other video) is a lot more important as a healer since knowing exactly when each individual player is going to take damage and how much they're going to take will provide you with and enormous advantage over the other healers. The advantage you get from this is bigger than any other optimization will provide you such as: perfecting your rotation/priority, optimizing secondary stats, optimizing movement, positioning, and gcds (not that these aren't important). A good battle plan is more important than all of these and will even overcome class balance in pretty much all cases (except MoP). In order of importance when trying optimize your healing performance: Battle Plan >>> Not wasting gcd's by running around > Always casting > As much aoe healing as possible (battle plan ties into this) > positioning > perfect healing rotation/priority > gear optimization

As a tank pally tank from BC to Cata this is second nature to me. In terms of class diversity I feel as if BC was the best for it (I didn't play Vanilla so I can't really comment) ultimately bad communication is what makes potentially great guilds medicore. During ICC I my guilds only failure was a small % of the non English speakers just wouldn't attempt to communicate, because of this LDW25HC was the second hardest boss for us, poorly communicated MC's caused so many issues, we had no chance with LK25HC though..

But I do have a question... I'm the MT1 for my raid and I have difficulties with the 3rd phase of Odin. My mobility isn't great as a DK, as you well know. My raid and I have made some adjustments to make it easier but I still have difficulties with this and I have tried almost everything but still no luck. I kill most of the dps by running so slowly. Can you give me some advise? Would the feather from the priest still help?

I wish you could compress 10years worth of experience into an hour of video. You did a great job with this though, made me pick up my warrior though who was gathering dust in my -mouth vom- Garrison.

What? DKs are basically the best class for Teeming AND necrotic.
@modernkennnern8 жыл бұрын
That does not mean that DKs are good at Teeming & Necrotic though. Only that everyone else is worse.
@EliteRocketBear8 жыл бұрын
They're not. DKs rely on self healing as part of their active mitigation. With Necrotic that is reduced, they heal less, thus their blood shield is smaller, because it is directly proportional to the heal they receive from Death Strike. For kiting Necrotic, classes with an instant distance creator like a Warrior are generally easier to play with. DK lacks that as well. Basically, have to constantly cycle AMS, kiting and Vampiric Blood's Umbilicus Eternus shield. Also, maybe you're confused, but only Frost's AMS dispells magic debuffs like necrotic. Blood's AMS only prevents applications of it.

dk can slow trash with death and decay and wraitwalk away, they are pretty good but from my experience druids and warriors are the best for necrotic

To be completely honest, you will never have a blood shield up for any meaningful time in M+, since they're usually around 200k which just blows up instantly.

Monks, Id say monks are the best tanks for necrotic. First they have great movement and can kite with keg smash slow + dash to reset. Also stacks build up slower due to mastery (when you dodge an auto attack you dont get a stack). If you time your reset and disengage with you guaranteed dodge then the stack time is cut in half so you have lass time waiting before the next pack or kiting.

As a healer I absolutely loathe the tanks that are pulling bosses before anyone is even near the area while screaming how awesome at Tanking they are then telling me to uninstall cause they died.

My ego is the biggest when i am tanking.
@malindastevens10166 жыл бұрын
On the comment about tanks having an ego I couldn't agree more and to be honest I've ran into said ego way more in Legion than any other xpac. I remember once when doing Normal Neltharion's Lair the tank was a DH and just rushed ahead, ignoring the first pack of trash mobs which left the rest of us to deal with it and we were dying. When I brought it up to them their response was "IDC learn to keep up newb" I just said screw this and noped out after calling him a piece of shit tank that obviously doesn't give two shits about the rest of the group. Thankfully my next run was met with a tank that paid attention to what was going on. Myself I just recently started tanking with my DH, still working on reaching 110 with her, and yes it may make things a little slower but I do make sure the rest of the group is with me before moving on, especially when I have melee DPSers. Annoying though when you get that one guy in the group that while you're working on one mob decide to go grab more and nearly get you killed, I felt bad for the poor healer who was struggling in that dungeon to keep us all alive because of the lock's BS.
