Time to go FULL TANK
Posted 06-26-2009 at 08:40 AM by Sylvaneart
My last guild hardly ever let me tank. Even though i was brought in as a tank I was told to go Kitty. This was mainly based on the fact I was top DPS in guild. I was ok at first with it until I was told Cat was my main and I would have to wait for off spec to roll tank gear. Over time my tanking belief in myself dwindled. Not tanking for whatever reason was eating at my confedence.
While being a druid alows me to collect gear that goes both ways I really lost out on trinkets. None of mine are over LvL200
But i do have some great DPS gear to show for it.
So now I am searching for a new guild. App into 1 and offer on table from another. I apped the 1 first so I have informed the other that I wanted to wait on it since I didn't want to waste there time by apping then joining someone else. They are being cool and waiting. They have offered me #1 OT slot for Uld 10 and 25man hardmode progression. I should probably jump on it after some research of guild rules and all that.
This true tanking roll has got me thinking. It is time to spend the loot and convert a majority of my DPS gear over to tank.

Last night I OTed for procpective guild #2. I got Mark of the Unyielding - http://www.wowhead.com/?item=45696
What a nice neck for a bear. Rawr has it as BiS. Even with my blah stats the MT told me I did great. He said I was first tank he had trained in Uld that did what he said to do the 1st time he said it. Felt good to hear. Hmmmm confedience restored? We shall see. My old guild had only gotten FL, Razor, and decon so Kolo, Freya, Auria(whatever) and Thorim going down last night was all new to me.
Tanking spots in established guilds are a premium. It is time I commet to tanking as my main and prove my worth.

Very nice stats you have there. You being on TankSpot, I bet you will be an excellent tank. (I have yet to meet an excellent tank who does not read TankSpot).Posted 06-26-2009 at 10:31 AM by Ferag
