What Is Fun?

Posted 08-16-2008 at 06:03 PM by Satrina
I’ll post this as a blog entry, since it definitely does not follow the spirit of the WotLK: What Is Fun? post. Instead, I’m going to suggest that tanking is not, in fact, fun. You’re probably wondering about my sanity at this point, since I am actually the MT of a raiding guild and all of that. I can see where you’re coming from, but bear with me a moment while I explain why I don't find tanking fun.

Crazy PvP Antics

My first tanking experiance!

So, as I mentioned the other day, I've just recently specc'd prot on my 60 paladin.

Tonight after taking my lock into ZA (first three bosses dead, which is as far as my raid team has gotten, but we got the second boss timer down, so woot) I logged Rikku in. I thought I'd head to the mine under Honor Hold and practice my pull strat on those demons. Prep SoR, AS, JoR,HS,Cons etc, as I'm sitting there im also in LFG for UBRS (noones ever in UBRS so I can sit there, listening to the...
