Protection Paladin Guide part 3 - Never be naked

I procrastinated this one ngl. This doesn't cover all the min maxy stuff but if you can learn this rule it will absolutely allow you to tank so much more comfortably. Prot pally is actually really squishy outside of cds so it's really helpful to get good at managing your defensives. In general you can follow this order
Wings Toll Ardent Trinket Bubble Kings. You add Moment of glory or tyr as needed then also your Lightsmith hero talent + trinket on burst windows. You will not technically be covered 100% of the dungeon but it will massively reduce the amount of damage you take and you can always look to Lay on Hands/Health potion etc when you know you are gonna have a gap in your cds. Also, don't be afraid to kite once they run out!
I really hope this helps people feel more comfortable tanking and will make more stuff like this in the future!

I think you're missing a very big fundamental here talking about wings and sacred weapon, I think one of the biggest mistakes prot paladins make is over commint big cooldowns while wings is running. The never be naked advice is good but can also trick tanks into spending all of their cooldowns right away when sometimes later in the pull when their healer and team is weakest (no blood lust, no ancestral guidance, no painsup), hence why I think it's good to touch on how wings works. Sacred weapon/temper/wings with stacks in most pulls you can almost completely avoid spending all your big cds right away. Especially with MOG you're immortal. Layering on this pull specific is great but make sure that in a future video you touch on temper and the power of wings for beginners, it's a huge pitfall i've seen with new tanks because not a lot of folks understand how sacred weapon works.

Very true. Esp with skarmorak or khados but I was rambling a bit and couldn't fit all the nuances into one video. Ultimately this isn't a perfect or complete guide but I do hope it helps people feel more comfortable tanking
