Greetings,
Background:
Because of lack of tanks in our Guild, I recently switched main from my t4/t5 rogue to my used to be PvP toon warrior.
I had alot of dkp saved from my rogue, so the last 4 weeks have been one big upgrade rush for me. Going from s1 PvP gear with a few mixed in blue tanking items, to where I am now.
The World of Warcraft Armory (http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Shadowsong&n=Croma)
This is basically the only tanking set I have, my focus have been on upgrading every slot to either threat/avoidance/mitigaiton/eh, just to have a base to start from.
We are currently downing Lurker and Leo in SSC, VR and Astromancer in the Eye, and have downed Naj'entus a few times in BT.
I have tanked all of Kara as main tank, and am currently working on getting tankspots (pun intended) on some of our progress encounters. Been offtanking in SSC and The eye.
Currently our tank team consists of one Prot pally, one reasonable new feral druid, and now me, the rest are alts switched in for tanking when needed.
Having read alot of the guides on tankspot, I am slowly getting to grasps with the do's and dont's of tanking. Working on getting my skill as a player to catch up to the gear I have been fortunate enough to get. (next upgrade is the badge ring for an improvement in both mitigation and avoidance)
So, if you please, anything I should be on the lookout for, slots that need to change, stats to improve, to be able to do my job as an up and coming MT.
I realize the open format of this post, but hope you can find the time to give some pointers.
Thanks in a advance,
