First raid guild I joined, I was like the 5th off tank or something like that.

Second raid guild I joined, I became one of the main tanks. Old guild couldn't do 10 (or 25) Maly. New guild had it on farm. Old guild leader said Paladins couldn't tank Malygos at all. We had 3 spots open, so we let my old guild leader and two of his guildies come. I MT'd it and we one shotted it. My guildleader (same class) put on bad gear and out DPSed him, and was teasing him in vent. <3

(and becoming a great MT, according to my guild. Woo!)

After 15 wipes finally got 23 people to run away from me and "that big Joumungar that spits fire" behind me and got Forlorn Barrier. I'm a happy paladin with a coffin on his back now

Recent succes: It took 8 instance runs less to get [The Black Heart] than [Essence of Gossamer]. The downside of this being it took me 24 runs to get the latter.

Just tonight I solo'd Krystallus in H HoS after my pug wiped. Have recently started learning Blood tanking for mt'ing raids, after having been Frost since 80. Loved the expressions of disbelief as the pug watched me take him down from death view. Blood tanking ftw!

Tanked Ulduar (XT and Kolo only due to time restraints) for the first time on my paladin. Only died once - Auriaya trash, mine enraged and twoshotted me just as the other one went down. I blame the lazy healers.

I'm in a "casual raiding guild" which tries a raid maybe once a week. I only switched to tanking a few months ago (in an effort to be more a more viable candidate for instances) and, thanks to fellow guild members and sites like this, have slowly come to understand what's needed to be a successful tank. Having said that, my proudest moments have come over the last few weeks as I realized I'm not that bad a tank and that I can be a "class leader" in my guild. (We don't have official roles, but I get asked all the tank questions).

Finally, the other night we all got together and 9 of us decided to do 10-man OS. Our normal raid leader was not online, so I was finally able to mark the stuff and make the pull decisions. After wiping on a stupid accidental trash mob pull and again later on an accidental drake pull, we downed Sartharion on the first try with no one dead (first time for that in my limited experience). It felt great to be able to lead the group like that.

We're still trying to gear up and I've only tanked part of the Arachnid wing in Naxx, tho I've OT'd 2 wings in the past. I'm looking forward to going back into Naxx now that our guild is getting more confident in our raiding ablities.

Probably my greatest Success in the game is achieving Gladiator status in season 6 as Protection spec.
Also receiving the Furious Gladiator's Frost Wyrm which is my new favorite mount in game.

About 5 weeks ago, me and 6 guildies were kicked from a guild we helped build for pushing for more endgame content and wanting to have personal accountability for raids. We had been stuck on Yogg for over a month... no end in sight.

The 6 of us started a new guild.... we had about 15 people at the end of the first week.

Last week, we downed Yogg for the first time.... and killed Hodir in 3 minutes 9 seconds (just missed)

This week, we cleared to Anub (and couldnt get him last night because the floor was back and wouldnt let us down!) in TOC. We downed 25 man Flame Lev with 4 towers, killed XT on hardmode and downed the new boss in Vault (really easy).

Hodir and Thorim are going down this week... and so is Anub.

Went from a top twenty five guild to a top ten.... Never has being kicked out of a guild felt so good.....
