Um, this is retarded. This goes against the entire spirit of what they said they want to do--elevate a class to "must bring" status.
I agree with this statement, though not the way its delivered.

Truth is new blessing of sanctuary is better than kings in any situation. A reason to stack avoidance and adds scaling to other tank classes.

It does go way way against the homogenisation of the raid and i doubt it will get through BoSanc needs to be changed and paladin mana regen in general needs to be looked at because while this is great for prot and while holy will struggle ret just became the weakest link with the replenishment buff..

Also grats warriors your shield wall if improved is 10% damage reduction better...way to go blizz fury and prot are now insane and you now need a prot paladin in the raid!

Use which tanks are available, confident, prepared, and understand what they're doing and know their weaknesses.

As an update, Modus did some testing and found that BoSanc returns 1 rage not 10. Not sure which way is the bug (tooltip or implementation):

dont bring priests for fort. dont bring mages for int etc etc. its in no way neccisary but it sure as hell helps
Imp buff and Commanding shout both do the same thing as fort, are raid-wide, and neither stack with each other or with fort. Fel Intelligence gives Int and Spirit to the raid. These are examples of what they're trying to do--duplicate the same buffs across two or more classes so no class is must-bring.

As far as I know, no class will be able to put a 10-rage-per-avoid buff on the tank. The Druid HOT talent is nice, but nothing near this.

With this one OP change, prot pallies are going to be not quite necessary, but absurdly beneficial, and unique in providing this buff.

Actually, Fort still provides stamina, while both CS and Bloodpact are health boosts, so while CS and Bloodpact don't stack together, both will stack with Fort.

Also, the tooltip on BoSanc might be wrong (check my previous post) or the ability could be bugged. It is actually giving 1 rage, not 10.

I would say that this buff doesn't necessarily break the raid design philosophy they've been stating is their intention in wrath. This is just from a "still lots of work to be done" perspective.

That being said... its definitely pushing it. Stalwart protector stacked with 3% less damage from all sources? That's a major boost that will scale amazingly as the MT gathers gear. Yes the resto druid buff is also amazing, but it doesn't come with 3% less damage, even assuming its the calculated the same as the 10% reduction in defensive stance.

I think if it is only 1 rage, and then balanced accordlingly for the other classes, its not game breaking. Regardless a very cool buff.
