For those of us that cannot reach 25 man raids yet. Which would you prefer to tank with? I am currently using The Sun Eater. I'm not logged on to WoW right now, but if I can recall i have 22-23% dodge, 18-19% parry, 22-23% block. What I had in mind was the King's Defender. Sacrificing a little avoidance for the hit rating is something I can surely use. Some may disagree. Just earlier this morning I walked into an AV, thinking I'd probably end up tanking Drek/Galv, there was another warrior who was tanking with Bladefury (for those of us who don't know that's the final weapon in Swordsmith that's one-handed). Now, I have only 36 measly hit rating. More would be a lot better because you aren't getting any threat if you can't hit noting right? Seems to be my problem in some cases. What I really like about the Bladefury is the +10 dps compared to The Sun Eater. I mean, it doesn't have as much avoidance as The Sun Eater or King's Defender, but I really think that the DPS --> threat and the marginal agility it comes with would well replace what it cannot offer like the other two tank weapons, BUT I am not sure wtf to do. I am a swordsmith and do have Executioner. Was hard enough to do already. Farming 5 vortexes in my situation is near impossible without me having to buy them.
200G x 5..... is it worth it or am I better off with The Sun Eater and/or King's Defender (which never, EVER drops for me)? Other people's consent on this would be appreciated.
~forgot to mention this also. I would say I lean more towards the "avoidance" tank rather than the all out "threat generator" tank. My block value is at 367 right now. A few more BOJ and should hit near 500.
