We had issues with the 10man version of this yesterday, as the spinner's random damage kept overwhelming us when leaving them alive - slowly, more and more spawned.

On the flipside when we tried...

Briefly.

Did anyone else get seriously distracted by the right half of Lore's face being noticeably brighter than the left? ^_^

As far as "good" configurations for cooldown-monitors go, I can add these:

Raidleader / Raidofficer
All ressurects. Rebirth, Soulstone, Reincarnation.
Tranquility, since it is often called...

I am currently trying to go extremely high on Mastery without reducing Crit or Haste so low I'd ruin my overall setup. This means I'll try to get to 916 Haste, ~14-15% crit, and then everything else...

I found that my most important 5man abilities are all non-heals:
Wind Shear, Hex, Bind Elemental, Grounding Totem, Earthbind Totem, I even occasionally taunt-kited a mob while healing with...

It's healing done.
Meaning the healing the tank does is reduced, not the healing he takes.

This was probably done to not make DK tanks ridiculously powerful as they start taking more and larger...

For 5mans there's little question that Holy just fares better due to it's well-roundedness. Lightwell alone is more or less dealbreaking for instances, assuming your guildies know about it.

For...

Hrm, can't really say this is in any way confusing to explain.
"Whenever you crit while tanking, you absorb some of the damage of the next hit."

Simple, easily graspable concept, every new player...

In logistical terms: Yes, definitely. 6 years of raidleading experience, 10mans are sometimes tough on the buff-balance (but that's nearly trivial in Cata) but they're much easier to stage on the...

I reforged a fair bit into mastery and I enjoy it as a Resto Shaman.

I've always preferred to do spike healing over CH-spam, and this synergizes well with that and Earthliving Execute. Ofc I can't...

So wait...
First you say you got no experience tanking in Cataclysm.
Then you also add that you tanked very little since 4.0.

And then you make a post with a whiney title like "DK tanks destined...

@Krenian
Keep in mind that we are missing one very very important change in 4.0, and that is that Rune Strike is spammable while in Blood Presence.
In other words once that change is applied you...

I can confirm that this works better (I'm not a warrior but I had some people on the target dummies next to me talk about it and got curious). Charge, TC, SW, Rend, TC again ASAP. That way you got...

When I tanked HoR yesterday I never had that wait issue much, really.
On average I'd say I had maybe 2-3 free GCDs on a trashgroup in the spirit room, and 1~2 of those were because of spamming the...

Thunderstruck seems worth it for Heroic Lich King and Halion alone already. Blood and Thunder... not sure. Once we have to level, for sure.

Then you lose a ton of runes to use.
Remember, you could just not use the runes you get from Runic Empowerment, same difference.

But in any case that'd mean you have but a fraction of what you...

I would not be sure it's that must-have.
Activating it costs you 3 Rune Strikes worth of threat, so you have to produce 66% of the threat of those three in the 12 seconds it's active to break even....

At least for 5mans I am fairly certain I do not want the Blood Boil glyph, and neither the Pestilence glyph. Handy for picking up huge packs but I want to be able to Pest 2-3 targets or BB 4-5...

I was planning on http://cata.wowhead.com/talent#jcGM0srrusdZbGz for levelling and 5mans. Undecided for raiding yet, will see how Cata goes.

Hrm, can't say I agree, sorry.

While I think ICC is a sore on the eyes with it's consistent graphical design making it become boring fairly fast when farmed, the actual zone layout, fight design...

I doubt that is it's goal, anyway. But just like the current lag-casting, it'll allow you to press the next button half a second too twitchy and still get away with it.

It makes playing a little...

The company who held the training about job applications at my university (for the people nearly done) said that if you see the personnel-person appears to you to be the type "young" enough for it,...

Due to the new regeneration there is no total difference in damage/threat produced between using Rune #1 as soon as it regenerates or at any time before Rune #2 has finished regenerating. In other...

It depends on guild, I suspect. For us as a guild which suffered a lot on our 25man raiding due to a sort-of burnout we had from already knowing things from the 10man version, this is good news. It...
