I DPS'd Naxx last night. I was asked if I wanted to tank it, but I'm still pretty sure I'd get crushed if I did (the whole no parry/block thing kind of spooks me, being an ex-prot-warrior). I'd like to at least break 30k HP unbuffed before I try tanking Naxx. With the Shroud of Darkness from yesterday's VH, as well as my T7 shoulders from last night, I'm at about 29.1k.

I really think I helped more as DPS in Naxx than I would have as a tank. I did about 2700 DPS overall, and was only...

"LF tank for H VH"

That's what I saw in the LFG channel while out farming herbs. "Sweet," I thought to myself, "I still need my Shroud of Darkness. I might as well give them a shout."

I do, and am invited to the group. Seconds later, I'm kicked from the group with no more than a "u cant tank" (and a comment that I was the only one not in plate). Huh... what the hell, right? I whisper the party leader, asking what's up, and get...

I have returned to tanking.

I've found that I enjoy tanking as a druid more than I enjoy tanking as a warrior. For some reason or another, I can't figure out warrior tanking in Wrath of the Lich King. I've found myself wishing for the old days of BC when people still used CC and kill orders...

I'm not sure anybody noticed, but there's a new loading screen tip that is relevant to tanking:

I wonder if this will help people understand Threat vs. Aggro, or just threat in general. At the very least, it should help the terminology situation. A lot of people use Threat and Aggro interchangeably, and this tip...

A Disclaimer:
I've been playing a healer almost exclusively as of late. It seems every time I go into an instance with my warrior, something goes terribly wrong and we end up failing. Unless it's a guild run. Then we're fine (even if we don't get the timed event in CoS).

This post actually has to do with both healers, and my failed timer in CoS. It's inspired by my having played a healer, and also by the particular pull that caused a group I was tanking for to wipe and thus...
