I have always thought Skill > Gear. Always. This fact becomes more and more apparent mostly when I run pug raids/heroics.

Situation 1:
I am tanking (Pally) Naxx 10 with another Paladin who has mostly 226 gear and is considered "MT". I tank most of the trash, the bosses he starts tanking and I have to hold back on my rotation due to being threat capped and I had to put a few Salv's on a few others in the raid, warlocks mostly. We down two wings and he leaves and we...

So, I've not really been around tank spot the last few months. I've been trying to take a break from WoW and I thought the best way was to stay away from anything that reminded me of it or tempted me to play. I've been doing pretty good, before when I played it was because I felt I needed to now I play for a couple hours (usually the max) then turn it off and do something else.

The decision to quit really couldn't have come at a worse time, I had just server transferred and faction...

I've been not as happy as I was in the guild I am in as I was in BC. I've been in the guild since MH/BT through till now. We've cleared all current content but they are having problems following simple instructions. I've been working with them but it doesn't seem to be helping.

Its FRAKING HARD! 2 tanks Pally and Warrior (me), 3 healers Pally, druid and resto shaman the dps last night comprised of rouge, dps fury warrior, hunter, boomkin and a warlock.

We did meh for an hour of work after Malygos. Hopefullly we'll have more luck this weekend. We hadn't been able to pump out enough dps...

The words are kinda ill fated in my mouth. I'll be quite honest with you... I despise pugs in their entirety. The dps who cant dps. The healers who cant heal. The tanks that should not be tanking. Call me an elitist. Call me prejudice against pugs. But I cant stand them and the less time I have to do anything with them the better, IMO.

I was reading old tankingtips provided by Vene when I read: Do pugs. Now, one as myself who cant stand spending more than an hour doing a heroic that...
